i don't know if anyone mentioned this but Central Park seems low to me. I'd say they got at least 47. Insane winter!

Edit: does anyone have the totals from yesterday's storm?

The extra hour of daylight we get this weekend will surely start doing a number on the snowpack...

 

 

It's amazing how much snow can melt with temps well below freezing this time of year. When I went to bed last night, I had 6 inches of snow on the table in the back yard. Right now, there's 1 inch. 5 inches gone despite temps only in the 20s today. That March sun is incredibly strong. This is why early season storms are more fun to me than late season storm. In January with temps in the 20s, very little of the snow would have melted. It's amazing that most of yesterday's snow is gone already (in sunny spots).

Was all of that 6" from yesterday?

if we had any type of blocking this winter we would have been talking 95-96 type seasonal snowfall

Which was why all those LR forecasts were calling for gangbuster snowfall; they were banking on that blocking. We somehow managed 40-some-odd inches; imagine what could have been.

The time change will make it impossible to accumulate snow during the daylig

 

It can accumulate during daylight hours as long as it comes down heavy enough.

 

Not true. The sun angle and time change make it so the snow never even reaches the ground. It melts too fast.
