CoastalWx Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Don't forget the 2/5/10 bust. they called for 18-24 here and we got 6, Boston got some light rain after calls for 10-15...and then the big ol 2/25/10 rainer while areas south and west picked up 10-20 Yep, but 2/5/10 always had an uneasy feeling with the whole setup. My area into SE MA was probably a relative screw min compared to ORH south and NE MA. Even HubbDave had a decent winter. Like I said..pedestrian winter around here.

CoastalWx Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 200 for you, about 50 for me. Just horrific. 12/19/09 was our only real event-I was lucky to get that. Give me an 11-12 winter over that garbage. I would 100s of '09-'10 over that winter. I don't ever want to remember that winter...ever again. That goes for '12 to Jan '13. We know what happened after.

We know what happened after. 11-12 was kind of nice once you realized there would be no winter (which was easy to see by Jan 1st), we hiked, biked, saved hundreds on our gas bill...I actually don't mind one of those once a decade...as long as we have 10-11's 13-14's mixed in.

ORH_wxman Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 It was tough to take some of the screwjobs in 2009-2010...but we actually had a few decent events that winter in ORH. The 2/24/10 event was nice...total elevation paste job of 11" of snow (even more just the north and to the NW in the Berks) when almost all the TV mets were going so low. Kinda sucked we had to get the retrostorm right after to melt it down. The New Years event was pretty neat too with around 8 inches of snow and exceptional wind. We nearly verified blizzard criteria in many locations during that storm. We had too many 1/2 mil vis obs though mixed in with the 1/4 mile. But the wind was there. We also had an amazing WINDEX event on 1/28 that winter. I had 3 seperate flashes and rumbles of thunder. That was the darkest I've ever seen the sky before a windex event in winter.Got about 3.5" of snow in 1 hour during that...most of it fell in about 30 minutes. The first 10 days of February though were awful. Missing those storms. There's no doubt about that. I can also completely vouch for how ugly that must have been in the CT River Valley to the west and also further northeast in SE NH and Maine...just an awful winter in those areas.

tamarack Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Getting screwed by someone getting snow 200 miles way hurts a lot less than getting screwed when someone is pounding snow 20 miles away. That was Jan 2011 plus Boxing Day '10 up here, also Finding Nemo in 2013 - Nemo didn't quite find the Rt 2 corridor, 6-8" while LEW/AUG had 3-4 times as much. 2010-11 was statistically a decent winter thanks to 15" on 4/1, but short on SDDs and full of near misses.

dryslot Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 2009-10, the three week winter that ended in the wee hours of 1/3 as snow changed to rain and the retro-bomb locked into place until about May. Three MA KUs produced nary a flake here, and for the 4th one we got to enjoy 35F rain while NYC was having a 21" snowicane. The BN snowfall and way AN temps were bad enough (46 cons days above normal Feb 8-Mar 25, with 26 at least +10), but having areas to the south not just snowier but also colder was tough to take, especially for those trying to make a living in the woods. Hopefully never to see again, Its was dreadful watching all these storms make it to about 40/70 then slide east OTS while i was puffing on cirrus blunts in short sleeves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 I moved some of the winter stuff from earlier to the banter thread. It's the slow season, but we should still try and keep this thread on topic. It's the July discussion thread and not the banter thread...of course I was guilty of contributing to the winter talk with my snowfall map post.

(and it's not a very accurate station) One of them was mine...the computer that I had it connected to needs to be replaced and I'll do that this fall. I'm also working on a new setup in Union so I'll do both of them at once or close to one another. I want to improve the radiation shield on that one.

Oh okay, I can't wait until your station is back running online again! I always used to check it, because your temps are actually closest to ours, especially on radiational cooling nights. Leela Way was also a good station, but that one seemed to disappear a few months ago. By the way, have you recorded any 90 degree days yet this summer? We still haven't hit 90 here, and it doesn't seem like there is any significant heat on the horizon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprisingly I had one 90° reading back on July 2nd. I think that was one of those cases where there was a mix of sun and clouds and I had enough sun to push us over because there were stations around us that did not it 90.

CapturedNature Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 I do my daily observation at 0700 so I rounded out the month this morning. I was looking at the final "tally" and it looks like I came out dead even at my long term normal for the month. That's quite remarkable considering I was a degree (F) above normal a week ago. The last few days just ate away at that. I think the four major stations will eek out above normal but ORH is currently closest to normal at +0.2 through yesterday. They'll probably wind up being +0.1 or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
