I hate New England…..need to move to truckee CA…… We’ve had good pack stretches. I think 13/14 iirc was good. I mean, we’re never getting Nov to Mar wire to wire type stuff around here. You’ll need to move to mooseville Canada for that. @ORH_wxmancan rattle off good pack years dating back to the revolutionary war. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The type of block that makes Ant rush into his squad car, head to Rikers, and free the prisoners he aggressively arrested during the pandemic. Just Pure euphoria for those who live and die by blocking. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WinterWolf Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 You’d think that mega block would cause some crazy/or exotic things to happen if we have a system in the area? No? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we have these seasons of gross pac that needs atl help and your perfectly timed shit streaks…just enjoy the event and move on from the impending melt off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I had longer in the 90's winters depending on what we considered pack. One year it snowed day before Thanksgiving and there was some pack until March that year, don't remember the year, Will would know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was the year, pack got thin at times but lasted a long time. 95 winter I may have had a deeper pack than 2015 until the thaw wiped most of it out, 2015 was close though. East of where I live had a deeper pack, probably why it was Scott's best year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

East of where I live had a deeper pack, probably why it was Scott's best year. Deepest pack to your north in ORH was probably March 2001 but you were likely too far south for that month to eclipse the Jan '96 pack....though you must have come close in early Feb 2011. If you go back far enough, the pack was probably rivaled in Feb 1961. January 1987 got really deep too in N ORH county....prob 40-something inches. I think I measured 43-44" in February 2015, but that was a couple inches shy of March 2001. January 1996 was similar to 2015. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a likely outcome, but with a block like that you have to keep an eye open. Agree. I don’t know, I thought the overnight runs improved some and weren’t too bad. Pretty blocky. This early in the season that can be the kind of pattern that can be pretty anomalous good or bad and often lead to a sneaky event even if swings in temp are pretty wild. Seemed like the Pig backed off too. The early pattern has really only meant something to the ski areas. Gonna be a slow start. But I’m sure they’d sacrifice that for a good holiday season and meat of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
