CoastalWx Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 How did you get more snow in 07-08 that 08-09? That seems off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Still amazes me how people can lose it over not getting any snow.People riot when their sports team loses. Like literally light cities on fire from losing a 90-minute game. I can think of half a dozen or more things you use as examples, it just depends on the topic. I can't believe some parents will physically assault other parents over something their 4-year old kid did. Or shoot people for getting cut off in traffic. I still can't believe entire ethnic groups get killed because of a made-up book (religion), but to each their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That seems off. 07-08 the gradient winter was ok....08-09 we missed a few events s and e....also the early march 09 storm was not even 6 inches here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Well, I am a snow lover and get disappointed during ratters. I have no problem admitting it. Locally, this has not been one, but this so far as been one of the all time clunkers for most of New England. It's understandable why some are pissed.

Bob on his soapbox, lol, also one who is spot on average snow. Where does this winter fit for you historically? Not a ratter but probably like our version of 11-12 up here? Below normal snow, above normal temps, but with enough snow to get out of the bottom 20% or so? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 That surprised me. I would have bet the farm you did better in 08-09.His area probably does best on SWFE or no? With those you don't get shadowing, valley dry air, can't be screwed south/east...just massive up glide aloft and a wall of precip. Probably the best event for his spot as it's fairly stable and not risking getting screwed by banding or topography. But I don't remember what was so snowy about 08-09...did you guys get a ton of snow? That one is filed in good solid average winter here but I think it's over-shadowed by the ridiculousness of 2007-08. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

codfishsnowman Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 but i will say the almost two weeks of wintry wx with just over a foot of snow on three events definitely beats the one wintry week in jan of 12 so i suppose i like this winter by default better lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rgwp96 Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 The biggest lol I saw this morning was metfan saying this winter has sucked when he's in NYC with already 40" and a 2ft snowstorm. It has sucked for most . I had 22 inches in that one and it melted in less than a week and my total for the year is 30 . It's below my average and one lucky storm doesn't make it a good year IMO . Go just 30 miles north and they are really on a snow drought as they missed that big storm . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NortheastPAWx Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 You got over your seasonal average in one epic storm. Cry me a river.THANK YOU!No offense to metfan, but the complaints coming out of the NYC forum are absurd. They got more in one storm than places even in interior NNE have seen all winter. They sit right at average while other places are on pace to finish with 20-25% of seasonal norm. This was supposed to be an interior winter, and it's the interior on pace for some of their worst winters ever while the metros will finish around normal or slightly above. Not everyone got that epic blizzard, sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
