 14 measurable events here this year vs 12 in 09/10. Less than 0.8" per event this year vs. 6.5" per event in 09/10.

It's almost like when I used to live in Jim Thorpe and woke up to a fresh coating just about every morning from December-February. 

BTW, don't even try and look at the NYC thread talking about this storm.  I feel physically ill after trying to get through the final two pages. 

 

I won't count this out until I see the 0z runs tonight.  For my shore friends that is.

If that happens, it will be very painful. Potential for 12" of snow with this.

 

If I shoveled every inch of potential that a pattern spit out, I'd be getting four times my annual snowfall on the regular.  You live in an area where potential and reality rarely work in tandem.  Best to keep your expectations modest around these parts, even in the "favorable" patterns.

 

This pattern is more favorable for Southeast New England but much tougher for us to collectively win on.

So it seems this winter is inherently doomed, but the stream of events is constant and one of them is bound to work out in our favor. What was that post a few days back, about 16'ish distinct events this winter. Granted, most of them were minimal 1-3" events.

There was a stretch where we picked up a trace or more of snow on 11 of 16 days and only picked up 4" out of it. :lol:
