White Gorilla Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 Have a good feeling about the first week of March as far as snow potential given some of the chatter and forecast indeces. But then again, I had a good feeling about this coming week...... Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codfishsnowman Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 Depends on your definition of good. All the seasons except 11-12 were above normal IMBY, but my totals pale in comparison to what occurred in SNE you mean parts of sne...i never had a season much more than 20 inches above average... i just thought the two seasons i mentioned were the best ones overall in the mhv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have access to my records at the moment but can post tomorrow how all those seasons played out IMBY if you're interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snywx Posted February 21, 2016 Author Share Posted February 21, 2016 other than 09-10 and 13-14 what really good seasons has the mid hudson valley had recently? My 13 yr running avg is 58.8" which is roughly 6-7" above the long term avg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West Point, NY Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 you mean parts of sne...i never had a season much more than 20 inches above average... i just thought the two seasons i mentioned were the best ones overall in the mhv If you average 45- 50 inches a year than a bit more than 20 inches more than normal is around 50% more than your average. Subtract the same 50% off the normal, and I'm sure your in the ballpark of what you wind up with by the time it's over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CPcantmeasuresnow Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 I really laugh when I read all these winter laments. We have come through a period in recent years locally where we have gotten more snow annually than my house up in Lake George. There is a 30 year average for a reason. Sometimes, averages are reached by periods of extremes. This is just nature evening things out. Laugh if you will, but If the amount of snowfall were the only thing that makes up a decent winter I might nod in agreement, however we are living through one of the top 3 warmest met winters in history, which is as aggravating to me as the lack of snowfall and all of the missed opportunities. Give me a winter of snowfall 10 inches below my average, and temperatures near or slightly below for the season with a period of several weeks of sustained snow pack and I'm a happy camper. That would make me feel like we at least had winter this year. I go into March feeling like at the end of the month we will transition from fall to spring.

snywx Posted February 22, 2016 Author Share Posted February 22, 2016 I know they do say east coast earthquakes are usually felt 10x more than those on the west coast. Something to do with the faults being older and ground is colder. I remember the 5.8 that hit Richmond was felt in Canada. A 5.8 ini Cali may travel 100 miles.

That would make me feel like we at least had winter this year. I go into March feeling like at the end of the month we will transition from fall to spring. I dunno, 11/12 was warm and dry and weak (I had 5" for the season) then the last two were great. So this one is warm and weak too, at least I'll go well over 20", ehh whatever. We have been setting records in all sorts of ways which has been cool, we've had all sorts of learning opportunities and my aging back got a break from shoveling How do you think they felt the last few years out west where they're used to seeing a couple hundred inches and they were playing golf in February and buying water in 5 gallon jugs while needing paper plates because they had no water to wash dishes? I bet they weren't having silly internet spats like we've seen this winter from people that live in an area that is notoriously fickle for snowfall but have been spoiled by a few good decades.
