    Neither is far from their seasonal norms atm. Boston averages about 47 inches a year, Seattle averages about 7. I'm glad the game didn't turnout like the snowfall averages.

    Still my biggest storm of all time. I ended up with 35 inches. 35 miles east of me in Danbury it rained much of the storm and I think they ended up with around a foot. NYC with 21 inches.

    Despite the cold and constant snow pack this winter I still haven't gone below -2.7 . I'm hoping to top that tomorrow morning. Time will tell.

    Had to shovel the driveway this morning. The inch that fell blew into the walls of snow along the driveway and whatever blew around yesterday just accumulated there. currently 5.4°

    Tomorrow morning should be our morning but I've made that prediction before and conditions didn't always work out. Let's see if winds get calm and the skies stay clear tonight. Bottom out this morning at -2.0°.

    Looks like the low at Central Park was 3 degrees above. That bodes well for the one person that guessed 3 degrees. If the high at the park is 17 today game over.

    0° even. Tomorrow morning should be the coldest morning for the Urban areas and the shore areas. Tomorrow night with the winds dying down and if the skies remain clear should be the coldest morning for the suburban and rural areas to the north and west.

    Whole forum or just city and southern sections?

    I don't think it will get anywhere close to the top three. You have to remember those 3-4 degrees below normal you see for the past two months are measured against averages from 1991-2020 which are the highest averages, by far, since records have been kept.

    I measured 1.1 inches in a tough environment to get accuracy. 12° with blowing snow. A beautiful winter day. 44.1 inches on the season.

    But there have been 46 individual instances of longer periods. That would be a much better way to put it into historical context.
  12. CPcantmeasuresnow
    And that's the way it usually goes. It would be against the norm for both sides of the country to be snowy and cold in the same winter.

    We had a storm with 11-18 inches of snow area wide, followed by cold that preserved most of the snow cover in place for the two weeks since. How is that a waste of the cold?

    It's much deeper than Lake Erie and rarely freezes over. Lake Ontario has a maximum depth of 800 feet Lake Erie barely over 200 feet. Lake Ontario is actually deeper than Lake Huron.

    On the Jersey shore I'm sure it does. To those of us to the north of NYC latitude I've always looked at the first two to three weeks of March as just another winter month. After the 20th or so I agree.

    I would be remiss without noting this is day 52 with snow cover in Orange County surpassing last years total seasonal of 51 days. 43.0 inches of snow now ytd which already surpassed last years rather measly 32.8 inches. It's a solid A winter right now. Will see how it finishes up the next 7 weeks to see if it can retain its grade.

    It is a misleading way to rank. I don't say that saying you're misleading, just when you have these come out ranked with this numbers it doesn't give a true indication of where a specific year, date, or sequence of days really stands historically.

    Low of 2° this morning. it seems to be a crapshoot the last couple of weeks on what mornings are gonna be the mornings of good radiational cooling. This morning seemed to be one of them at least in certain areas.

    Montauk ground zero. Congratulations to all of the 4,000 residents.

    I still find it so disappointing the way 2010/2011 seemed like it was on its way to break all the snowfall records and just died. Still a great winter overall for most but the last six weeks a big disappointment for many.
  21. CPcantmeasuresnow
    The one difference I would note and I'll use the last storm as an example. When I cleared the board at 10pm I recorded 15.8 inches depth as the snow had ended. The next morning there was another 0.5 so I added that for a storm total of 16.3. I'm sure if I measured depth that morning it was probably closer to a 15 inch depth.
  22. CPcantmeasuresnow
    Max 17° Min 3° Snow 1.4 inches
  23. CPcantmeasuresnow
    That line should be back up to the Mason Dixon line by the weekend, but an impressive week for those areas not used to this.

    March is usually two distinct periods. The first two weeks in March in a typical winter you can usually expect to still have snow on the ground here, the last two weeks a different story. If you get it then it's usually not sticking around too long. Of course you do occasionally have months like March 2018 which you alluded to. I had snow on the ground virtually the entire month, but of course from March 2 to April 5 I also had 50 inches of snow, not exactly your typical March.

    One of two decent events that winter in what was otherwise a D winter. January 7th-8th 2024 event was 9.6 inches in Highland Mills. Parts of NW jersey, Places in Orange County northwest of me, and Dutchess county were in the 12-14 range from that event.
