Not all years, but I feel pretty confident for places like Boston, and down to you and I...the 30 yr norms will go down a bit. We have increased annual snowfall by a significant amount. And 16-17, 17-18 were pretty good. Other than 19-20...we haven't had much of a ratter either. You people are so spoiled. 12" storms do not grow on trees. We went years without one in the 80s. I'll say it again, when you saw the "white" shading of 3-6" from Bruce, Dick, or Harvey...you were elated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SE MA and up into BOS probably have increased their 30 year snowfall by a solid 10-15% in the past 2-3 decades. That is a monster number for a 30 year average to increase for places that avg between 35-50”. Regression has a lot more work to do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winter's have warmed a bit as a whole, but we just didn't have the biggies back then. I remember so many times where it was bare ground and cold. Sure now and then we had some good ones, but that stretch after 83..woof. I suppose 86-87 and 87-88 weren't too bad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just remember all the comments about "we don't have winters like we used to.....blizzard of 78 this and that...etc." God am I glad we broke that in 92-93. But the new age weenies need to understand it's quite likely we overall will regress a bit, especially in cstl areas where the average snowfall has dramatically increased.

Last year was ok, I had 2 12+ inch storms so it wasn’t by any means a bad winter, but we haven’t had a major slow moving blizzard that buries the region with 2 feet of snow since March 2018. Even if it’s not a great winter, if we get a massive blizzard like March 13th 2018, Jan 26th 2015, Feb 8 2013 ect, even if the rest of the winter is meh I’ll take it (I believe 2005-2006 one of Rays analogs was like that). Normally I’d rather just have the frequent 6-12s but it’s been a while since the last 2 footer so I’m hoping we see one this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
