Happens a lot down here. All of the epic storms in 09-10 were meh down here, in the late Feb one. There are many others; Jan 2018, Jan 2015, March 2017, March 2018. 

I printed this snowfall report out and put it on a plaque which I now hang on my wall lol.

the Lindsay storm in 1969 ended on this date...20" of paste at JFK...one of the best busts ever because the storm was forecast to change to rain...

One of Winter's nicest surprises.  I was in New Haven when it happened.  The snow was a tad drier there, I guess.  Glad I wasn't in Queens.

Love storms that turn out that way.

yes yet another undermeasured storm at Central Park!

the 60s were golden.....

 

My favorite Winter from that decade was 1966-67.  Lots of ups and downs, including at least three big storms: Christmas eve, the February blizzard, and one late in March that was actually powdery snow. Lots of other storms in between, and a cold, wintry March.  That winter followed a brutally hot summer, you may recall.

Indeed!  During our early 90s snow drought I went to the college library and went through the NY Times microfiche collection for that very reason.  I picked winter 1966-67 to "relive" (or rather, experience for the first time, since my first weather memory is from the early 80s lol) to see what a prolonged snowy winter was actually like.  I loved reading their forecasts, seeing their maps and pictures and seeing their stories of cold and snow, which to that point I had never experienced.  All I had were the Blizzard of April 1982 and February 1983 which I also loved to read about during our long snow drought.

Then for the first time I remember getting excited for snow in 1993, because the summer and fall temp patterns seemed to mimic 1966, and I thought a big winter might be oncoming, so I started keeping a weather journal for the first time in my life.

somewhat like 1995-96!  1966-67 was close to a weak la nina too wasn't it? (and a weak la nina after a moderate el nino is supposed to be golden for snowfall!)

Thanks, Uncle.  This is great.  One thing about the Christmas eve storm, at least in Jersey City - a lot of sleet, and Thunder.  Would have been deeper, if it had been all snow.  Tracked a bit too close, I reckon.  What I did like, is that the temps were well enough below freezing, at the surface.  I have more memories of that winter - I was working as a deckhand on the harbor - a total misfit - the old Pennsylvania Railroad tugboats.

I want to save that post of yours.  It helps jog my own memories.  I nearly drowned on a frozen railroad car float during the March cold spell.  Someone grabbed me just in time.  Lol.

somewhat like 1995-96!  1966-67 was close to a weak la nina too wasn't it? (and a weak la nina after a moderate el nino is supposed to be golden for snowfall!)

 

That's the winter I was thinking of, to compare it.  Was not present for that great winter.  Was I jealous.  

Seems to me that here are two kinds of "great" winters  The first kind is what we are talking about, with mild interruptions, and the second kind is a winter with a prolonged period of snow depth and cold, somewhat like 1960-61, which I also missed, or 1947-48, when I was just 11 years old.

I think 2010-11 was somewhat like 1960-61, while 1995-96 was more like 1966-67.  Curiously, both 1995-96 and 2010-11 were la ninas that came after el ninos.  2009-10 was great in its own right and would have been much greater and truly historic had we not missed out on a couple of big storms.
