snowgeek Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Albany has received 5.5" with a normal of 32" to date (17% of normal). I have received about 4" at my house, although I missed 2" of it falling while I was away. Only a few dustings and coatings for me, but who's complaining. I am looking for a bigger loser to make myself feel better. Any takers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowgeek Posted January 26, 2016 Author Share Posted January 26, 2016 All of us in Central and Eastern SNE. There are plenty of places in CNE and SNE that have cracked the 10" amount. Not pretty, but there are uglier totals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HIPPYVALLEY Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 E NY & W NE not only have a huge snow deficit but it's made seemingly worse by not getting in on much of the action seen in eastern sections last winter. I live just south of lurker And also sit at 4.5 " when we average well over 50". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 I'm at 13.0". Not as bad a 06-07, but I probably won't have the finish that winter had either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OSUmetstud Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Yeah, Albany has been a snow hole for a number of years if I remember correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 It is definitely NW MA or far S VT. That has to be the real dumps compared to climo vs anyone else....though up in powderfreakland they are doing pretty awful too. Maybe we can just extend it all the way up VT. At least E NH and W ME got the inverted trough last week and that late bloomer storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NortheastPAWx Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Coming out of region but the northern tier of PA and southern tier of NY have definitely been miserable so far. AVP: BGM: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all have been sucking tailpipes thus far and you, lurker, and mpm may be just about the worst,followed by radarman,ineedsnow, codfishsnowman,and myself.

You just named the cellar dwellers and if we had some posters from S VT and SW NH we could add them to the list. Beyond just this season it has not been a good stretch for the area from NW CT up through the Berks and over to the Monadnocks. You can argue that "climo" will even out but that still could be years away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxmanmitch Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 I'm at 7.0" for the season, which really hurts since we've been in a multi-year big snowstorm drought. If we had as much as E MA did last winter, this wouldn't be as painful. Seasonal average here is approximately 70", and I'm guessing the lowest seasonal total here must be in the 25-30" range ('88-'89 looked really bad in the COOP data from Great Barrington, but I don't have any exact numbers for Lenox or Pittsfield). We should have no problem setting a new nadir for seasonal snowfall at the pace we're currently going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorEastermass128 Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 12.3" on the season here ten miles NW of BOS. I'm surprisingly taking it in stride. The 114" total last season helps a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eduggs Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 I bet there are a few spots in the 3-4" range in the Hudson Valley from Kingston through just north of Albany. Albany actually got relatively lucky with the orientation of a few long lake effect streamers. I also think some of their snow totals were generous just to get to 5.5." A good month would get most of us near average but another month like the past three will probably put us in the top 2 least snowy winters on record.

ice1972 Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 I've got maybe 8" or 9" on the season? I don't measure really - just eyeballing but this winter is The Season of Suck.......Jezus man...... Embrace the Suck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyewall Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Burlington, VT: Snow to date: 18.8" Normal to date: 41.0" Departure: -22.2" 45% of normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least E NH and W ME got the inverted trough last week and that late bloomer storm. I'd imagine all of NNE is in the same boat. I'm at 26", J.Spin is at 38", Tamarack is at 20", Dendrite at 13", Eyewall at 18" in BTV. Seems relative to our seasonal averages that's probably pretty equal. We did get a 6" event last week from the inverted trough and upslope (J.Spin had 11" on 0.6" liquid I think), but nothing since then. I consider it a win that the grass has been covered since December 28th with a snow depth that hit 10" a week or so ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all have been sucking tailpipes thus far and you, lurker, and mpm may be just about the worst,followed by radarman,ineedsnow, codfishsnowman,and myself. Yeah, 4.25" so far ain't good. MBY is somewhat elevated off the valley floor (550') and behaves like 65% PV, 35% ORH hills. I kind of think of it as a low ceiling/high floor area because we usually can get a piece of the ocean storms and CAD usually holds for ok front end dumps. But this year we've missed on both.

CapturedNature Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 2 inches here 3 if you count the sleet I'm looking forward to spring and summer convection this year pretty much gave up on winter now also if a hurricane hits the gulf or Atlantic coast I am chasing this year so can't wait Sleet does count. You're probably in the toughest place this winter so far as a percentage of normal. Even with Saturday's snow I'm at about 25% of my normal. I suspect you're close to 10% of normal.

eduggs Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Some areas of the Taconics from east of Pou to near the VT border are around 10-15% of normal snowfall to date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 A better way to try and gauge it would be how anomalous it is...standard dev. It's more common for an area that averages 50" to be at single digit percent of snowfall to date than some area that averages 100"+. I.E., I'd bet it is more anomalous for some 2000 foot ridge in the Taconics to be at 18" on the season than it is for a place like CEF to be at 3" on the season. Even though CEF's number might be a smaller percent of normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe I'm still under 5" for the season but I have to double check after that dumping of .4 on Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
