Hopefully the euro is right. Let’s get cool around 11/20 and stay there.

1994-95 was active but warm outside of the Tip alluded to deep and short lived cold snap after the one good storm that imby flipped with a net gain of 2 inches but we had 6-8 down in the initial hours. MLK Weekend was warm per memory-I remember talking a. Long walk in just a tee shirt MLK day. 1997-98 was going to be good but super ninos don’t work for anyone. I do remember the potential wasted that winter and the 12/23/97 event was really good. Tom Chisholm reporting on the fact that it was snowing hard by 7:30 AM telling viewers not to worry, the strong December sun will bring bare ground by afternoon. Never to be heard from again...lol.

Yeah I was commenting from the mby perspective. 2/25 had promise but watching Todd Gross hit Boston hard while ACK flipped back to snow worried me. Sure enough, we just missed the good stuff.

Kind of looks like an ideal getaway for anyone desirous of being completely off the grid.

I don’t think 1998-99 should be lumped into the big ratters. It was sub par for sure but it had some good moments.

I admit to googling that location...

May have to end my shorts season after the upcoming week-at least as a 100% default.

That’s kind of 1995 for me. My mother passed 11/29-the day of a nice 3-6 event. We flew to Rochester and spent 10 days there. Lots of LES. Came back to the great winter of 1995-96.

I’d rather decent Pacific and meh atlantic vs meh Pacific and decent Atlantic. At least for SNE on north.

Flip in December, flip back in February?

Actually, I rode my bike to meet a friend for dinner on Columbus Day evening in 1995. Temperatures were in the 80s that day. It flipped about 2-3 weeks later.

As we move to fall and winter,RIP to friends lost- messenger aka clinch leatherwood real name Scott Simard James Nichols (his real name)

2/3/61 may be the heaviest synoptic snow I’ve ever seen. You could actually see it pile up on top of the antecedent deep pack.

5+ AN. For winter probably 10+. So by now upper 70s and higher. People freaking out by lingering summer. This is a common occurrence! If it’s in the 80s thanksgiving I’ll worry more but honestly this weather means nothing regarding winter.

The 2nd half torch was signaled well by eps 10 days ago or more.

It actually looks identical from when he WS born roughly

Probably downtown. It’s not like they had airports in 1915.

Greenland weenies getting ready for feet of snow.

It is but not for the reason you posted. I remember autumns 60+ years ago that went deep with warmth and dews well past Columbus Day.

As a child growing up in NNJ, it was common to have accumulating snow in November. October was rare but I remember trick or treating in a snowstorm sometime in the early to mid 1950s.

I remember xcountry skiing in the arboretum on a deep pack right before the blizzard. I was still a concerned about losing the storm to the south and I was not yet on line so I drove around in lowering overcast to check the weathervanes around town. That was a Sunday and temperatures were in the upper teens mid day. Monday with the storm still raging I got the good news that sleet was mixing in as far north as Braintree but it quickly got beaten back. I had to get to work-a 2 hour T ride ending at government center and me walking the mile to causeway street. This lady was really furious that the T was stopping at government center and was pounding on the driver window. What a melt. Good times!

The expectations were so high but it was muted in the results. So while nearly everyone got 6-12, expecting 18+ essentially ruined it. I also remember an obscene nao which actually brought in North Atlantic puke keeping temperatures in the 40s a few days after Christmas. Once that relaxed some we got in on the January blizzard and surprise aftermath a few days later. Then we had heavy snow to rain and a full melt until the pattern reloaded. But initially we weren’t sure if a reload was coming.
