ag3 Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 NAM sim radars match up to the actual radar extremely well. Start time for the heavy rain on the NAM is around 11am with around 1.25" of precip through Thursday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it inevitable for Southern Virginia to receive 5"-10" last week also? We've just had bad luck this winter. Good for SNE though for cashing in on this terrible pattern.

Rtd208 Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Why dwell on what could have been, there is always next winter. The good winter storms will return, they always do.

But come on it was in late October, a historic storm that hasn't occurred in some 150 years or so, and that storm was crippling for a lot of people because of the tree and powerline damage. Some places saw worse damage than with Irene easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wise, Virginia had 8 inches last week, but their 30 yr avg is 52.2 and they are only at 30 for the season. Burkes Garden, Va avgs 52.6 they are only at 20.2 for the season.

SnoSki14 Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Even saying the snow barely accumulated in October is a historic feat, sorry you didn't get your 6-10" and your lucky you didn't because the damage would have been incredible.

I agree I'm not taking away its historic, just saying it wasn't all that, it wasn't expected to be anything crazy around 5boros and long island. The fact it was october was the only fun part Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not complaining just saying it was more interesting north and west but like you said it was October and with the way this winter is it was an awesome event looking back on it.

Sock Puppet Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 I personally will trade a snowless October with an active winter. 2" of snow followed by rain isn't as exciting.

The fact it was october was the only fun part But just think how difficult it has been for us to get snow this winter in Dec-Feb. To get snow that accumulates even a little in October is truly amazing and a bad omen as well by the way. I'm never rooting for an early snowfall again. I'll wait till mid December if I have to for even a flake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
