CoastalWx Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 Anyways, I don't see a wholesale change really, but it's sort of the look where things could sneak in perhaps after next week. That's about all you can say. Some signs the pig weakens after next week. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then lows near zero Saturday morning, I think I have mentally checked out. I need some sun, everyone around town has the flu. Bring on Spring please...or KU I guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hold them and squeeze them tight. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowfall wise, this season reminds me of last year...very little snow in January/February, a true bookends season if somehow March delivers again this year.

Last year was better for me up to this date. Despite a crappy Dec, we had some fun events in Jan, and a good mid Novie event. I know those north of the pike feel different, but just speaking locally.

Yup. Generally warm and wet followed by a brief cold and dry spell. Several seasons like this and we should begin to bounce back the other direction.

I had 8.4" combined between January and February last year, 4.3" so far this January/February, but actually had more in the Nov event (8") in 2018 than we did in Dec this season (4"), we got skunked down here for that one...I don't know, just feels like 2 ratter years in a row down here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 The joke for like 6 straight winters was what will everyone do when the 80s return.... The numbers Will used to throw out about praying for even a 4-7” snowfall seemed hard to imagine when it seemed 12+ was a once a month occurrence. I still hold out hope you guys get smoked with a big storm, even if it’s rogue in a shitty pattern. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(hell, this year a 1 inch storm would be a HECS) just days of gloom and light rain 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthCoastMA Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 The death vortex loses it's grip at the end of the GEFS and GEPS..but We'll see how it looks by the end of month. We can easily punt the rest of Feb down here 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huge silver dollars like Pacific NW style snow. A quick inch already at the mountain in under an hour from these huge flakes. Can't make this stuff up.

The key words in your statement is "at the end," they've looked good at the end all winter lol. I'll be heading back up North the beginning of March for one more sledding trip, so I really don't give a crap about here anymore this year. I'd love a big one to at least give a decent ending to a Horrid/Ratter winter, but if not it's fine too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only started keeping records in 1985 but the longest I've gone with rat/BN snowfall years was 4 straight so hopefully we are not two years into a stretch like that. Even then we'd squeak out a decent event/year every once and a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, like you can’t be super exact. I know Ray likes to nail exact dates from 4 months out as to when a stray flurry lands on Scooters head but... one has to strive for perfection if they put that much time and energy into it. I get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sucks that you missed out in December. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
