40/70 Benchmark Posted June 18, 2012 Author Share Posted June 18, 2012 Cool, 92-94 was special No argument. But my '94 total was rather pedestrian....OTH, '96 was far an away my largest seasonal total, and '97 had far and away my favorite event. Still don't know what the hell Jerry was talking about, but love him, anyway lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isotherm Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 2009-10, 2010-11, 72" and 58" for a 130" couplet. For one I haven't lived through -- 76-77/77-78. And before that, 1960-1962, then 1947-49 for the huge Decembers and great snowcover winters. 63" and 47" respectively in NYC for those two winters.

Diego Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 If I understand your question you are answering , 76/77 winter, 77/78 winter, 95/96 and 96/97, right? First, 76/77-77/78 and second, 2009/10-2010/11. I could understand why those in SNE with the exception the area closest to the NYS state line (and NYC), would have trouble with the 2009/10 portion of the second sequence.

One winter had ballz deep cold and the other had a beyond epic blizzard in February. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diego Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 I don't blame you seeing you're from NYC. But statistically, you've got climo on your side, which is why where I live, it really sucks (small consolation that it's slightly better than Phil, most of the populated parts of MD, and DC.

ORH_wxman Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Even if '09-'10 had been good here in February...that couplet would have a hard time beating those others...for one, both '09-'10/'10-'11 had no March...I have trouble ranking a winter very high if it ends abruptly early.

Well you're about 5" under Central Park at your location's avg, so yeah, more comparable with PHL than most of the metro area. Much of LI is 28-32".

I remember most snowstorms since 2000, before that I don't remember much. (maybe because 1997-98, and 1998-99 both sucked azz) The event I remember the best is X-mas 2002. .

40/70 Benchmark Posted June 18, 2012 Author Share Posted June 18, 2012 13" of complete paste. Is there another event later in the '83 or '84 season? I can't be thinking of of April '82 because no way I'd remember that.....I was 1 year and 5 months old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't be thinking of of April '82 because no way I'd remember that.....I was 1 year and 5 months old. March 1984 had two big events...the first one was Mar 13-14 but that actually changed to rain before ending, but it still produced like 10-12" of snow. Tamarack in Maine is obsessed with that storm. Obviously Mar 28-29, 1984 was the big one. There was a modest 3-5" event before the Mar 13-14 storm too. So you could be thinking of any of those.

There wasn't a storm like that in late 1982-1983 winter. The Mar 28-29, 1984 storm had a lot of thundersnow in it in eastern MA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
