  1. 70s in March was common 70 years ago per my memory. I used to realize that March would often give you the first 70 and April 80. Didn’t happen every year but it was common enough.
  2. I’ll root for la nada. Or whatever it is being weak…and the west to warm up. Regardless of enso state if we have a cold wet west our chances go down for a snowy winter.
  3. While I’m glad to see many of you enjoy a deep winter week, it has blown here. Got a total of about 1.25 inches and cold. Fairly useless as our biggest event was 0.75. And today’s squalls missed my house. Just turn it up 50 degrees and I’ll be happy. This is by far worse than any ratter in memory.
  4. Looks like mby is in the 7-10 split and will miss out on the meat of the squall line.
  5. Interesting fact: The last time BOS and metro west was eclipsed by areas south of us down to Philly and parts of BWI/IAD area was the last time we had a strong Nino-until this season so far. I’ll be very surprised if my area gets a single event >6” from now on this season. Looks like I’ll leave my snowblower with plenty of stabilized gas in the tank. I’ll continue the practice of starting it once a month over the summer and fall.
  6. I was a freshman that year-just turned 19 just before the mayhem. I just assumed that was winter in the area. Snow in the air the first week of October, solid event around 11/5. Way below zero many nights. Epic period!
  7. Well I witnessed 40+ in the sierras so no but it fell on top of a deep pack which was fortified by 2-3” seemingly daily for weeks before the event. When winters were great….
  8. It might be the famous blizzard of 66. I experienced it in upstate NY. Oswego with 100”. My campus got “only” 38.
  9. Whiteout for 5-10 minutes dropping about 0.75". Sun should melt off the cars by the time I get up.
  10. Yup. Warmth, spring baseball, returning late month. I’ve had it with this above normal temperature winter that doesn’t feel warm and every which way to not snow.
  11. I'll buy something when I see the flakes. I'm defeated and looking forward to warmth.
  12. Congrats CT/RI. You got some serious snow! I woke up a bit past 10 to white rain. About 1/2-1” have accumulated on grass and cars and roofs etc. Everything sinking south now so maybe an inch more? I’m ready for spring and counting the days till my March in Florida trip.
  13. There's going to be an uproar from the public. But schools cancelling 24 hours out have only themselves to blame.
