Lots of record first flakes as well for many places.

Lots of record first flakes yesterday.

29 last night.

Yeah, just took the dogs out. 37 with 30 mph gusts.

White Christmas here last year due to snow before the holiday. 1st time in a while.

Great pic! Congrats on the fist accumulating snow. Snow on that, I'm guessing burning bush?, looks really pretty.

Just like anything else weather wise, the further out you go, the less meaningful they are.

.71" overnight.

6th freeze for here

@Sundog this is what the extra tile on the dashboard looks like. Where i have it mounted temp is 62.8, roof sensor where the station is mounted is 64.8

Thanks! Now to remember to look daily.....

That should take off the rest of the leaves that are left on trees here. They are like 85% empty as of now.

I was more thinking 3 days ago vs yesterday vs today. I dont have access, so do they change this much daily or was this a pretty big one day jump?

How much weight do you give them if they run daily?

We will see how things look as the weeks tick off. Fast start for us near the coast is always hard to pull off.

He's been bullish on this and several others as well as we've been reading here.

26.8 on all 3 stations last night. The leaves dropped like crazy with that freeze. They dropped in like a circle under the trees since there was no wind. I should take a half day and rake them before they blow all over.

Like I said, it took the best winter ever and one other good one in that 15 year stretch to get it to 21.8, the other 13 years averaged less than 17", like what we have had recently. Those 15 years for my area not far outside the city were worse than the last 9 here. We only had 2 years where the benchmark track worked in that past timeframe, the rest of the 15 years didn't for the NYC vicinity.

Can you explain how from 1987-2002, 15 winters, 10 of them were well below normal (8 with less than 18" with the 2 others below 5") and how that is any different than the past 9 winters in terms of winter storm tracks then vs now? It took the jim dandy of a winter in 95/96 and 93/94 to pretty much save that entire stretch, otherwise the snow average for those 15 years would have been below 19". That was my area, but I'm in the tri-state so many experienced the same thing. It is funny how that stretch resembles the "new norm" of the current stretch we are on with snowfall totals.

38.7 was the highest my station recorded. .02" of rain. Saw Reading PA got to 61mph

Gusting into the mid-30s here so far

67 here, now clouds took over.
