Pretty tight gradient. BOS had 83.9" and PVD had 39.7"....not sure we'll see that again any time soon. BDL was above average with 62.1". PVD's. Number seems low to me.

What's good about highs in the 20s? Record cold, that's a different story. The block is rearing its ugly head again in 2010-2011. Ok, I'm ready for the "But we need to establish the cold before we snow comments..." I just think it sucks that we've gone from talking about a serious threat to talking about previous snow events lol. Its almost like we moved back into early november again. I'm patient though. I didn't expect much from this time period anyways. I just don't want to see a block right over our heads again like last year. Did you read what I wrote about the block? Do you understand?

No doubt ginxy! In the backyard when it snows i shovel all the snow into one place off the back deck and make a ramp for the kids to sled and board down, douce it with water when the weather permits and they love it..............almost as much as I do. Pretty much every weekend the fire pit is raging, last new years eve was special with a couple inches the night before, and then a couple that night, no wind 32 and perfect dendrites cascading down from the heavens in the floodlight. Really does not get better than outside winter nights! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No radio show tonight...not enough of a threat. Even the Mid-Atlantic clipper threat looks a lot uglier now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
