Juliancolton Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Just came across some of my pics from Feb '10... never ceases to amaze. Here's a crappy windshield pic that is nonetheless one of my favorites. I'm still not sure what's more incredible, the sheer depth of the snow in many areas or the fact that this scene was like 20 minutes away from my house where it was almost purely a rainstorm.

Must have been right after the snowicane That R/S line still amazes me. 36-48" snowpack was widespread on this side of the river that month Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That snow was so wet that during that afternoon I remember the snow at my stake not going up as fast as on my board, the pack just kept getting denser. That night when the colder air finally worked in the ratios started to go up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went by my parents house in Highland Mills that night it was just under 40". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had I cleared it 3 or 4 times it might have been 40. That storm and January 1996 at 34 inches are the best of my lifetime. So different though, one pure powder and the temperature never went above 15 and was single digits through much of the storm. The snowicane, 30 through much of the storm and was so wet and heavy for one of the only times in my life I was starting to wish the snow would stop for fear my roof would collapse.

There's the difference, I was at 32-33 for that storm before the cold air moved in Thursday night. While my brothers porch roof didn't collapse it did shift enough that he couldn't open his front door. I'll always remember helping him shovel it off during the height of the storm and then the drive to Newburgh to pickup my then wife from work.

gravitylover Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 So is it over? It sure feels like it. Smells like spring, buds are poppin', new green shoots are sprouting and other than on northerly aspects and piles the snow is pretty much gone. It appears as though spring is springing. I'm reading about a cold shot here and there but with each passing day it feels less and less likely. Sure maybe a day here or there but nothing extended.

Juliancolton Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Decent odds that Feb 10 was the last subfreezing daily maximum at KPOU. The record earliest for that milestone was Feb 12 in 2012... alarmingly, if Feb 10 stands, then the top-five earliest ends to winter (by this one metric) will have all occurred since 2010. Usual caveats about the data gap apply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gravitylover Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 ^^ I got out for a ride this afternoon, the forest seems to be thinking the season is changing. You can just tell... Julian - That's a scary thought. I dunno though, I do expect a cold day here and there like I said but I guess if you only think of winter as DJF then it wouldn't really matter.
