If we are to reach those seasonal totals again, it may be over a shorter period. Even the bulk of 09-10 snowfall to our south was during a 55 day period from late December into mid-February. So it wasn’t a wall to wall snowfall season from late November through early April like ours in 95-96. November 09, March 10, and April 10 were very mild months without any big snowstorms unlike 95-96. It took BWI only 55 days to reach 75.4” during the 09-10 winter. It took NYC 134 days to reach 75.6 “ during the 95-96 extended season 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We didn't have the significant November storm that season, but we had snow in all the other months. One of my biggest memories of the 02-03 winter was how long it took the northern edge of the snow to advance north with PD2. Some of our highest snow ratios with the leading edge of the storm. The other memory was heavy thunderstorms and pouring rain to heavy snow on Christmas. Probably my favorite winter from 99-00 to 08-09. It only took Boston 20 days in 2015 to beat the NYC 95-96 snowfall totals. Boston....82.8”...20 days....2015. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes PD2 was like sugar pouring from the skies all night- it was absolutely amazing I think it started snowing here just after sundown around 6-6:30 PM or so. It actually reminded me of the amazing Feb 1983 blizzard which did the same thing and was the last time our area had an all-snow 24"+ snowstorm! I also loved the heavy snowrates in the day time April 7, 2003 snowstorm which we also happened to jackpot just like the post Christmas and PD2 storms!

Amazingly sharp cut off with very narrow area of heavy snow! 500 low and surface low aligned. So all you had to do was be on the left side of the storm track. Also excellent cold air entrainment with the CCB. And a really sharp cutoff to the SW. we had a dusting in Baltimore, and it’s not that far from philly.

We didn't have the significant November storm that season, but we had snow in all the other months. 93-94. Not as much total snow as 96, but plenty of storms. And a couple of rare ice events to boot, and a massive sleet event in March. Plus the two mini blizzards in Feb. And I did all this with a stinkin shovel... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
