If 1/17 last winter hadn’t pulled the most grotesque 1 in 100 phase that ripped it up the Hudson valley, last winter may have had a legit standing as solidly good. That cost us double digits in snowfall and also a large change in the tenor of the month. It would’ve given us deep pack almost the whole month after 1/7. It would’ve turned January into a true big dog month. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jan 7th was maybe 8” here, you did have a great band that prob gave you a foot. I can’t think of any others that got close there. Feb 25th was around 9” here but we were close to jackpot. Most people had 6-8. I just went back and checked. 4 snows >7 with 2 of them 12+. 1/7/22: 12.2 1/28-29: 22.6 2/14: 7.3 2/25: 7.3 Season total: 57.05-you can see that I had only 8 inches aside from those 4 events. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherwiz Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 Sometimes I think the MJO gets overblown. Not downplaying it's importance but I feel like anytime the winter is going back in the Northeast you get folks trying to use the MJO as a saving grace and that the MJO is going to save the day.

Saw kids today trying to sled in patchy shaded areas; reminded me of living in the southern mid-Atlantic. Really? Today made for 5 days this season with >2" depth (wow, I know - but for 6.8" on the season, I'll take it). Kids were up and after it early at Fort Williams. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoon Tip Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 I actually don’t have a problem with the MJO contributing some … The hemisphere appears receptive to it actually moving east of the Niña firewall. Dispersion (wave propagation) is constructively interfering. It’s just not an aspect that is on the charts at this time - It won’t drive the pattern … it may contribute. NCEP has 70+% prob for NIÑA neutralization over the next 40 days. It could in total send the pattern roulette turning for a new number. No idea what their reasoning is but these questions are worth asking. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kids were up and after it early at Fort Williams. Good stuff. I should clarify that I have had a couple days with a couple inches of cover, but with bare spots under trees. I’ve used my snowblower once. You had to be out early today since a lot of it vaporized once the sun came out. In any case, while I’ve appreciated what we’ve gotten it’s been paltry. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 Very nice snow globe evening. It’s been snowing for over 36 hours now; amazing how much that changes the feel, even though we’ve only gotten 4-5” in total. For people visiting, it just feels like winter and while there were only 6 top to bottom routes, the skiing was quite decent, especially given the lack of crowds 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve got a standing wave going this evening with steadier snows down into town than at the mountain, oddly enough. Driving through the galaxy big flakes this evening. Mountain has gained about 4” of dense upslope last day or so. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherwiz Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 1 minute ago, Chris12WX said: All indices are overblown Well not necessarily. In a nutshell, indices are how we assess and analyze the pattern. Many of the indices out there are a measure of pressure anomalies between fixed pressure circulations. For example, when we're talking about say the North Atlantic Oscillation and say it is negative, that is suggesting that the pressures associated with the icelandic low and azores high are both weaker than average. The biggest challenge becomes with interpretation and understanding of what each of these indices mean and how they are all driving the pattern. More times than not, the pattern is not driven by one variable. But what there seems to be a tendency of is making 1:1 correlations when there is no 1:1 correlation. Back to the NAO example, we tend to think of negative NAO's as being below-average temperature wise in the Northeast with increased snowfall potential, however, that is not a 1:1 correlation. The overblown comes with the "the PNA, EPO, AO, NAO, MJO " is this so we'll see this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here on the snowblower front and that stuff was maybe more liquid than solid. Yeah, we were out there at 830 or so, fog kept the sun away until about 10.
