Yes, very interesting. I was here for more than half of the top 20 years, and at the time, wouldn't have expected such a ranking for some of them. E.g. I sure didn't think 81/82 (ranked 16th) was much at the time.

(Oh well; don't want to start one of those reminiscing threads. Although those are my favorites.)

This is interesting!

I’d give 1899 an A+ and I wouldn’t rank 2011-12 dead last, just because I did see snow accumulate in October (which I’ll probably never see again).

I don’t know much about 1904-05, I’ll have to research it given you ranked it so highly.

Baltimore winters ranked from 1-130 . This could be the first Baltimore winter with fewer than 10 days with mean temperatures of 32 or below.

We need some serious March snow to avoid the worst winter ever (for members of this forum!) based on this metric.

Ranking is based on (inches of snow) + (days with >=1" of snow on the ground) + (days with mean T <=32) + Bigstorm bonus ([24hr_inches - 5 inches]*0.5)

I don’t know much about 1904-05, I’ll have to research it given you ranked it so highly.

I looked this up- December 1904 was the GOAT. I’d take that even over December 2009 despite less snow overall.

Woof.

That's what I noticed. Bottom 10-20 years were just littered with the past decade and 25 years.

During the cold winter of 1904-1905, Mainers enjoyed taking horse-drawn sleighs across the frozen expanse of Belfast Harbor to check out the Monument, a nautical marker that is at least a half mile from land.
