OKpowdah Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 There are innumerable ways to quantify the historical level of this weekend. I keep thinking of new ones randomly through the day. I thought we could list some in this thread. -- Portions of New England now have the highest snow depths in the Northern Hemisphere below 10,000ft south of the Arctic Circle -- Keene's seasonal total so far is greater than following the Valentines Day Blizzard on February 14, 2007 -- Numerous locations with 20% to 30% of their seasonal average already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grinch1989 Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 I mowed grass Saturday morning and plowed snow Saturday night. I shoveled my walk on mischief night so kids can get to my front door tomorrow night, doubt there will be many though! Both mind blowing to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both mind blowing to me All October snowfalls in history at all SNE climo sites added up except Boston do not add up to yesterday's snow.

grinch1989 Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 I covered my pool five weekends ago. I last used my central air on 10/10, 19 days later I have been burning wood non stop and plowing 14" of snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skierinvermont Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 Here's the total of ALL previous October snowfalls at SNE sites. There are a few years missing here and there, but these are all the sums of 90-140+ years. NYC: 1.8" PVD: 4.8" ORH: 27.7" BDL: 2.2" BOS: 1.2" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Windcredible! Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 Honestly...I think the most impressive fact is just 2 months ago CT was dealing with the largest power outage in state history. Who would've thought that benchmark would be surpassed again before the year was up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skierinvermont Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 Here's another good one: this October would be the 2nd snowiest November since 1892 in Worcester besides November 1971 when they had 20.5" *again a few years missing but they probably didn't have more snow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's not the elevation, they get into the deformation banding or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Windcredible! Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 Another good one I actually thought of last Thursday when we had snow up here in Albany... For many places, their first accumulating snow came before their first frost/freeze. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
