CAPE Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 Dec D Jan A Feb C- Mar D December and March are weighted lowest, as one is basically Fall and the other Spring in the lowlands. January was pretty epic for here with over 19" of snow and generally cold, with snow otg for many days. February was pretty pathetic with very little snow. The late Jan snow was still otg with cold temps for the first couple days of the month- that was the highlight. In the end, snowfall for my yard was slightly above average, and the best pattern set up during the ideal month (combo of low sun angle and cold/snow climo) and delivered with 3 snowstorms and one snow/sleet to rain deal. It was disappointing that literally nothing else transpired after that great start, but so it goes with Ninas in the MA in a warming climate.

BlizzardNole Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 Overall grade of D for upper Montgomery County, MD. Had several small snows for a winter total of around 12-ish, and was the third straight winter without a significant snow (6" or more). Hoping the "law of average" comes into play for next winter.

NorthArlington101 Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 C-? It was an ever-so-slightly below average winter. Fun for a few weeks, hard to forget I missed the “big” storm. That would’ve probably made it at least a straight C if I’d seen it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nw baltimore wx Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 D. About 60% of normal snowfall and no region wide events. The snowblower hasn’t been moved in over six years. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nj2va Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 Alexandria: B (just slightly above climo with a double digit storm) but most of the snow fell within a few week period so can’t go higher than a B Deep Creek: C+…will finish with about 75% of climo and I would have given a higher grade but December basically featured no snow there including a complete washout the week of Christmas/New Years with temps in the 50s and heavy rain most of the week. By far the best event was MLK weekend (which also makes it into my top 5 favorite events ever) with blizzard conditions, high winds, temps in the low teens, and about 18-20” of total snow. Last weekend was probably the 2nd best event of the season. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxUSAF Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 Dec: F Jan: A Feb: D+ Mar: B- Overall: C+ Median snowfall overall again which is hard to complain too much about. January was very nice. March got some style points. A modest event or two in Dec and Feb would have probably pushed winter toward a B+. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronTy Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 Woulda sucked if not for the foot of snow we got on my first day of retirement in January. Thanks to that we ended up at climo but otherwise it was crap IMO. B+. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris78 Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 December- F January- B February- F March - C+ 17.75" on an average of 28" Overall Grade of D for the winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanTheMan Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 December: C- January: A February: C March: B- Overall Grade: B Got 17.1” in Clifton. Way way better than last year. January was fun, and although I would have preferred a big 10”+ storm at point i'm satisfied with the nickel and dime act. Considering we have plenty of winters I hardly see any snow I would take this most years and be happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eskimo Joe Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 January was B. The lowlands finally got snow. Otherwise it was F. Tried to be optimistic, but this winter really blew chunks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MN Transplant Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 C+. Dec/Feb were absolute disasters, but the early Jan storm was timed well and the month was appropriately cold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overall grade: B- I agree with all you said about the winter. December is like a lost cause down here. I’d give January and A+ for us on the coast as we received almost 30”. Was hoping for a better stretch in Feb or March but it was truly a one month winter which is better than most. Thanks for repping the low elevation peeps. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaydreb Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 I’m giving it a C. December and February were terrible but January salvaged the winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maestrobjwa Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 C-- for me. Not quite D because at least it was cold and we did have some snowy scenery. I got kinda fringed on Jan 2/3rd, but officially at BWI it was 6" (but like 2-3 in my yard, lol). My area still has yet to see a good WSW punch since 2016; however, in comparison to 2020, I'll take the scenery snow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clskinsfan Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 F for my area. Nowhere close to normal snowfall is always an F in my book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhino16 Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 D for my yard. Couldn’t make it to the new lower average. It gets participation points though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrb129 Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 D- for Harford County. Only thing that was nice was that stretch of below freezing days. Decent snow seems to take small miracles to come by anymore.Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2O Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 C That’s mostly because I did exceed climo(barely) which one would think should warrant at least a B. But 80% of my snow came from one storm. The rest of the events were meh similar to the last 2 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxdude64 Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 Sitting at 19.4 for the year, about 75% of seasonal average, had about 21-22 days with snow on the ground at measurement time, also about 70-75% of average. BUT, most of that was Jan, which I'd give an A- to, rest of the winter, especially Dec gets a fat F. First measurable snow was into Jan, fail. Overall, a C-.

Paleocene Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 I'll give it a C for MBY. Cold and relatively snowy January prevented it from being a D or F. But man, would have been nice to have real snow in February... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ravensrule Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 DD for my yard. Pretty painful winter. What a huge bust. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GramaxRefugee Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 B- About 140% of climo on snowfall. One big 10" storm plus few smaller events. Possibly our 5th snowiest January ever. Overall the winter seemed pretty lame and unworthy of the B- grade, but with those January numbers, it's not fair to go lower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
