Logan11 Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Major blow to my seasonal total only getting 4 inches from the October snowstorm....been clawing my way back ever since. Poor KALB still at 23 inches. My old place in the HV above Saugerties at 19 inches....6" in Oct. and 13" for the whole met.winter. I'm .25" from 80". Not very good but this year it will be a victory. I'm hoping for a major storm to bookend the winter and put me up over the century mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 I find it somewhat weird that you have 80". I swear nobody else around does. Are you sure? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Well you did have that freak 33" or whatever it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Except for the surprise you guys had the other night the coating on March 1 was it. The vast majority of that fell on Feb 29. I will bet you a six pack that we do not see more than 2 inches of snow in Morch at any of the 4 climo siites in Sne. Deal? Somehow ORH will pull it out of their behinds.

Logan11 Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 It's ridiculous how torches go around Pete. LOL Yesterday six hours of unrelenting torched sunlight wind, 50F here reduced my 9" at 7 AM to on average 4" by days end ...still 6" in the sunless woods. Never got to Pete in time to do any damage..... Largely luck because of the timing also. Well you did have that freak 33" or whatever it was.

HoarfrostHubb Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Somehow ORH will pull it out of their behinds. Even BOS averages over 8" in March I doubt they see any there, but ORH can def. get 2" at some point Will better take that bet...and not for Milwaukee's Best either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete lives in a glen where if you go 1 mile down the road, the snowpack disappears much quicker. It's a local effect. I've seen the live cams from coop stations around there, and they had bare spots in early Feb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ski MRG Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 I find it somewhat weird that you have 80". I swear nobody else around does. Are you sure? Yep. Take away the October storm and I have about the same total as Rick. I know you guys think I slant stick or something but it's not the case. I've had snow cover all Winter albeit nominal for here. WxmanMitch probably has a total in the upper 60's or low 70's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisM Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 My parents were very surprised when they came to UConn yesterday and saw the lack of snow east of the CT River...and even down in the valley. guess we still have several inches covering the ground up at 1k and here we have bare ground for the most part. NW CT FTW again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logan11 Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 I'm not doubting it. :)The most remarkable aspect is your ability to hold snowpack in that location...... I'm waiting patiently for my row of evergreens to help out a bit with the sunlight...gonna be awhile and can't wish years of life away. Yep.

Cold Miser Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Well the euro op is all by itself, but it was more for nrn NH and ctrl and nrn ME. It will be nice to see some of those northern ski places keep piling it on, if possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if we get more than 2.0" from here on out in the season then I win? I'll take that bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen the live cams from coop stations around there, and they had bare spots in early Feb. When I met up with Ginxxx and ProLurker at the B'east last week I pointed out my area from the summit. It's was easy to see as it had notably more snow. You just have to look at a topo map and you can see how craggy it is. It holds the cold and wrings out the snow. No, but as a met..you want to make sure totals jive with other stations, that's all. Well, it is what it is. It's nice having Mitch on the west side as his snow totals are similar (a little less as he is lower down). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
