‎*** ALERT *** (weather Geek Talk but its important ) 12z EURO ensemble mean 12z CAN ensemble in the 11-15 day shows MAJOR stratospheric warming event will develop... this sort of thing OFTEN (not always) leads to major pattern changes over the entire north hemisphere... Often (but not always) leading the positive phase of AO to Negative phase of AO

I was eleven for 96 so I would say my perception of the event was fair. As far as totals go, my rank would be #1 96, #2 PDII and #3 Boxing Day

As far as intensity/winds go, Boxing Day wins hands down, but with my location in eastern Morris County, the best banding setup just to my east and I finished with a total of 22" as opposed to 96 with 33" and PD II with 25".

All three were great storms, but my personal favorite was 96" because of the higher totals IMBY and the long duration. I remember wondering if it was ever going to stop snowing. When you take a look back at the radar loops of 96" and PDII its pretty amazing how long they actually were.

Blizzard of 96 is still my number one favorite blizzard as far as the impact for me on long island i got 26" at my house. The nws had to of underestimated/measured the snow in the low end especially in suffolk cause islip was not even close to 26"

I remember building an igloo during the blizzard of 1996.

you play? We should organize a game then for the winter, since it will be in the 50's all winter...

yea...it was thee game for me growing up. i was an all american out of high school, got a full ride to seton hall. which was the biggest mistake in my career as the coach, Manny, was a german dictator that i just never got along with. i had offers to other schools too and in hindsight...i should of went anywhere else. after 4 up and down years at SHU, i lost my passion for the game. just wasnt hungry for it anymore. i wish i can re-do my years after high school.

I think most everyone agrees that you are one of the most respected posters on the board, and always have been. I hope the holiday season has been good to you and continues to be so, health and happiness, Hopefully as we near xmas we can start to track some more winter like threats.

Happy Holidays!

I liked A-L-E-X ... great poster ... what happened to him to get him banned? He didn't seem like the type to stir things up at all.
