Tops here isn't much higher - 16" in 2018 thanks to that day's 8" of pow. Only 2 other years had more than 10" - 13" in 2012 and 14" the next year. Tallest anywhere was 30" in Fort Kent, 12/25/83.

Ya pattern looks horrendous after Christmas with pacific warmth flooding the US. Woof - this is worse than those years when it was 60-70 in December bc there wasn’t any expectation. This is to be has to be up there with the worst weather December we’ve had. Teased with tons of potential for one 1-5” Light snow event that melted within a week in SNE. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pig tries to build in during an unfavorable period just after Xmas but then we go more to an El Niño look in the N PAC with the pig retrograding to Aleutian Low position. If Ray wants to flush La Niña temporarily, this would be the time that it might happen. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had the pleasure of speaking with Walt several times when he was at Box. True story: Feds were offered govt negotiated (but not govt paid) long term care insurance. This is circa October 2002 on a cool breezy day. They had this information session at the DOT facility near Kendall Sq. I see this guy running well ahead of me and I was rushing fearing being late. I get on the check in line where they were checking IDs and of course I forgot mine. The same guy is in front of me and I see it’s a NOAA badge and the name is Drag. I blurt out “Walt Drag” and he wheels around wondering who could know him there. The guard let me in and I sat next to him for the session. We talked snow a lot! An amazing coincidence! We stayed in email contact for awhile-brilliant and very nice man. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

40/70 Benchmark Posted December 17, 2022 Author Share Posted December 17, 2022 What I mean is the sensible impact was rushed...a favorable pattern did indeed develop in December, but it was still biased towards the interior and the coast didn't cash in. As dissapointing as this is, I feel as though everything is on track as was originally outlined. However, I am no longer as concerned about having underestimated this season as far as cold and seasonal snowfall. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
