powderfreak Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Just about noon and the snow is just starting to fall off the trees. Figured it's time to snap a few shots before the winter scene succumbs to the time of year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back 10-12 days when March temps were running +7 or more, I figured this would be one of the less common years when our snow cover failed to persist into April. Would need some 70s or a flooding warm rain for it to go that quickly now. Before this storm the pack was more than 50% liquid equivalent, much of it gray ice rather than ripe snow, so pretty durable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 12 events between the 2 overperformers had 5 verify and 7 underperform. Biggest spring snowfall since 2011. Totals here were 8.7” snow from 0.70” L.E., which at least in terms of snowfall was definitely above the initial NWS forecast. I didn’t run the snow thrower though – even in midwinter this would have potentially been borderline for a clearing depending on how packed the snow on the driveway was below it. In this case the driveway was essentially clear of snow to begin with, so this is just serving as a new base layer – and its’ nearing the end of March now, so it’s eventually going to melt. I took a look backward in my data for spring storms, and the one of significance I hit first was from last year on 3/21 to 3/23. I guess that one is sort of on the border for actually being in spring. Data for that one was 12.5” from 1.99 L.E., so obviously a lot more potent and dense with respect to snowfall, and I see it brought 2 to 3 feet of snow to the local mountains. This recent storm has certainly helped with respect to seasonal snowfall, but we’re still about 14 inches behind average pace due to the lackluster snowfall for much of the month. Average snowfall from this point on is about 10 inches here at our site. We’d need about double that to really get close in to average snowfall, but even if we stop at this point, the season would only be ~0.6 S.D. below the mean.

Not an option for my 2WD Ranger and the small hill to get up the driveway. Unfortunately, starting from bare ground meant tossing some of the gravel into the lawn, just like in November.

Hazey Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 5” total. Most of that fell in a two hour period mid morning. Very hvy snow with big fatties for a time. It then changed to rain for a few hours. Down to a couple of gloppy inches now. Was an overperformer here and really wasn’t expecting much accumulations.

(0.83" at my place) It was the ratios that won the day - 10-13 to1 while AFDs were talking 6-8. The exceedingly rare Route 2 jack, the area's snow shield temporarily incapacitated.
