JC-CT Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 1 hour ago, tamarack said: Somewhat different at our latitude, at least through the first half of the month. The 23-year average for snowpack here currently peaks at 21.6" on 3/2 and is still at 12.0" on the 31st. It was up to 27" this morning but the present light rain may push it down a bit during the day. Agree to the bolded part, but also the italicized part is basically giving you an extra week or two padding if accurate. But down here where Wolfie is, it's right around the turn of the month, maybe after the first week, that it starts becoming more likely that you aren't going to be able to maintain a pack for long. 1 hour ago, ORH_wxman said: Even where I am, I frequently have snow pack in the first couple weeks of March. It's more common to have pack here in early March than it is for most of December. It definitely changes after the first couple weeks. Right, I don't think that's inconsistent with what I'm saying - not for @WinterWolfin Southington, CT. If we are talking a difference of a week, I don't think I was trying to be that precise...he said "months left of winter" and I'm saying "nah son, it's called spring." It still snows in spring. But in most of CT, maintaining a pack in spring, even early spring, for an extended period of time (like for 2 weeks) is difficult and gets exponentially more difficult each week you go past March 1st. And while it might snow, you are still going to get a DD day or two that makes you remember that this snow-loving hobby is really just a way to get through winter with your sanity. 2 hours ago, Cold Miser said: Except for March 93.

40/70 Benchmark Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 My ideas played out with respect to the tropospheric vortex earlier this season, but instead of linking up with the stratosphere later down the line, the strat vortex remained potent until the trop vortex finally succumbed and is now coupling. Game over with respect to that....if we salvage a happy ending, it will be due to the Pacific. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
