Not a single flurry. Eric Fisher added, NWS Boston @NWSBostonNo snow for the month of November? How often does that happen? TL;DR, it's not unprecedented: 2 retweets3 likes i think in CON that number is 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And really what the difference between this month and some November in 1950 that had a graupel shower for a big, fat T? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 More of a trivial stat than anything else. If we did that in December, it would be amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 i think in CON that number is 5 CON had -SHSN on the 14th, but the ASOS didn't "see" it. I know they did because I drove right through one on the highway in CON while the airport was reporting 38F and -RA. There were flurries in Manchester too. The whole trace thing means nothing to me with the non-augmented stations now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole trace thing means nothing to me with the non-augmented stations now. Yep. Even a few sleet pellets mixed in with rain would go in as a trace on an augmented station. No way the ASOS would ever pick that up. Same with a stray couple of flakes.So comparing traces to pre-ASOS data is not completely apples to apples.

tamarack Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 Still some numbers missing for Nov, but it looks like it will be about +2.4, and 4th/5th mildest of 18 here, about 1.7F cooler than Nov 2006, mildest on record around here. Precip of 2.03" is 2nd least of 18 (though no challenge to the 0.84" in 2012) and 47% of avg. YTD is 86% of my avg, BN but not significantly so. Fifth Nov with under 1" snowfall, and 2015's 0.6" is 4th lowest of 18 - 2006 had only a trace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nzucker Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 We haven't recorded any snowflakes in the NYC suburbs either this winter, and I'm not sure our house in the Poconos has had anything. Last year, we had 2.5" of snow the day before Thanksgiving. In 2013, we had 2-3 hours of snow showers in southern Brooklyn around Nov 12-13. 2012 had an 8-10" snowfall in Westchester on 11/7, and 2011 had a 10" snowfall on 10/29. So we're significantly behind schedule this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
