Mid-Atlantic forum winter 2021/22 snow totals thread

i feel comfortable calling this is a B- winter.  little bit above average, saved by January and held in place by yesterday's snowfall.  deductions made to unused cold in november and early fall December weather (which I actually was ok with lol).  january was strong for most of the forum.  february was a bust.  any snow in march is a bonus.  all in all, a very average winter by snow totals, which is actually not all that common when you look at the variance from winter to winter.

Parkville, Maryland:

January 3rd- 3"

January 7th- 4.5"

January 16th- 2.5" followed by rain

January 29th- 1.5"

February 14th- 1"

March 12th- 1"

Total- 13.5"

Yet another below average winter snowfall wise. January started with some real hope in the first week, and that was about it. Considering it took until January to even see a trace of snow, and we essentially went snowless in February, I grade this winter a D+. It tried for a little bit in early January but ultimately it completely failed on what looked to be a prime pattern in the back half of January and didn't even show up to class in most of December, February and March.

This makes it 1 for 12 for all winters since I've known you.  I broke the losing streak!!!!!!  At least I'm pretty sure I've never had more snow than you before.  What do i win?

11/30: T
12/8: T
1/3: 9.25"
1/7: 2.75"
1/16: 3.00"
1/20: T
1/28: 1.00"
2/13: 0.25"
3/13: 2.00" (based mostly on reports around me, but looked about right to my eye)

Total as of 3/13: 18.25"

This is likely to be my final tally in NE Burke, and I'm sure I missed a T or two. Not bad, not great...but not bad. I generally think that any time I get 20" spread over multiple events is a good year, so this fell just a little short.

There was a time or 2 this winter where I could have reported a tenth, but didn't bother. Wth this time I will. Lame ass event couldn't even manage to catapult me over 20".

3/12/22- 0.1"

Total: 19.6"

19.6" will be the total for my yard unless something really odd happens.

Checked the CoCoRaHS station on the east side of Greensboro, 3 miles from my house, and the total was 20.4". The late Jan event had a decent west to east gradient(higher amounts further east) so that is the primary difference.

I was looking at the snowfall summaries for stations in S DE, and lots of missing data. Found a station east of Georgetown and west of Rehoboth that looked like it had reports for each event, and the total is 22.5".

its gotten harder over the years to make a good snowfall map because so many stations are not consistent with reporting snow for every event. 

The national operational hydrology remote sensing center has snowfall maps, and GIS data to download, but its very generalized, because again, lack of stations consistently reporting snowfall. Sucks
