So it looks like the NE just got Jan 25, 2000'd.  Three days ago they weren't even sure they were going to get a storm, than they weren't sure it would be snow and than they thought they would get a couple of sloppy inches.  Now 20"+ later they are looking at another historic winter.  Everyone get ready, more of the same next year, the -PDO is hear to stay for many years.  Hopefully next winter we will be warmer.

This is the first time Boston has seem a March (or later) snowfall over 12" or greater since the April Fool's Day Blizzard of 1997.

 

It sounds like the storm was a huge over-performer up there.  Pretty cool.  I need to move to New England.

 

I actually felt bad for them the start of February, there was a lot of belly aching going on, but not now.  I would bet a lot of places are going to be 150-200% of climo, which is difficult when your average is 40-50 inches.

I've had several good storms in a -PDO...I'll chance it - especially if we can squeeze out a neutral/weak Nino (which is forecast through the summer months anyway).

It's kinda funny, I remember a few days ago on DTwxbust facebook page, a headline in ALL CAPS saying something like, New England Snowstorm NOT!!!!

That was while he was still holding onto the idea that the storm would stay south, giving all of VA an epic snowstorm.

Reading some of the comments on the MA board about then getting pummeled in SNE is pretty funny.My grandmother lives up there said they were calling for 1-3" as late as 11 pm last night on the local weather...she has around 11-12", even places that got 20-24" were only calling for 3-6" as late as midnight last night as well.. Why cant we get that kinda bust down here..

Need to move to Denver. From 60s to blowing snow up to 1 foot now.

Yeah, and probably back to 60s with all the snow gone in a day or two as well.  Denver does not have many days a year with snowcover.  As another poster said, snow is most common in the spring there.  Of course, you won't have to drive far to see snow in the mountains there.  Denver is pretty arid with 15 inches total rain per year as well.  Not far from chase country in the spring though.  But pretty expensive to live in (avg house price presently around 1/4 million dollars).

Where are all the smurfs at tonight? Funny how they where everywhere the past 3 days drinking the koolaid and talking all that smack. Hope to see you next Saturday when we make it 8 out of the last 10.

 

 

Hmmm mysteriously Duke fans suffer from this too immediately after a loss. Every college fan is delusional if they think their team has an easy chance at winning the big dance this year. Bragging about Duke winning this season is kind of like bragging about getting kissed by your Grandma in middle school.

not a fan of neither team but we all know what the outcome would probably be if all the tarheels from last years team had not gone pro.  that's what kills unc all the time is they're players leave for the pros.  I was reading the other day that unc turns out more pro players than any other school.  This could have a little bit to do with why unc doesn't beat Duke more often.
