One of the few decent winters that decade. Though pretty frustrating right on the coast. But just 10-15 miles inland had a pretty big year.

But yeah, the '80s had that storm, Mar 28-29, 1984 and of course April 1982. Even a snow event in May 1986. We also had a half decent event on April 9, 1989 of about 5"...horrific snow year but a good finish...I was in Holden, MA for that one and a couple weeks earlier we had like 8-10" on Mar 24-25, 1989 when all rain was forecasted (even ORH didn't do nearly as well as we did in N Holden at 1000 feet). Still the worst winter of my life, but it could have been that much worse without those two events. '94-'95 is a close 2nd.

I lived in the MA in '87 and that winter was great for Central MD standards in terms of snow and cold.. Particularly in Jan. Also, Baltimore picked up around 6" in that late March '84 storm you're referring too. And then there was winter of '79 ( insert snarky laugh here).

Boston's total snowfall was 1.7", bringing the seasonal figure to 110.3", which is 10.0" ahead of where winter 1995-96 was at this point in time.

Some ensemble members suggest an AO+/PNA- setup around April, along with a large and deep trough over much of the eastern U.S. Some notable late-season snowfalls in the Boston area with such teleconnections occurred on March 31, 1970, April 6-7, 1982, and March 31-April 1, 1997. Smaller ones e.g., April 7, 2003 have also occurred in an AO+/PNA- setup.

Wow. Thanks, Don.
