It's not unreasonable to think that there was a time when it was normal. Of course I wasn't alive from the late 50s through the late 60s but from what I read those were some wintry winters.

[Torch Tiger]

Wow.

 Here is the link but don 't see the black on white anomaly plot.  I used to use that all the time...

We used to call that our most reliable indicator.  Too bad it's not easy to find now.

I was alive and old enough to remember the individual winters.  We still had long stretches ot stink sometimes.

Yes we know there were bad winters even back when the colonizers were colonizing but that doesn’t make the industrial revolution inconsequential.

LOL. Complete lack of cold weather on the 0z GFS. Average daily of 8F AN for the period in BOS.

[mannynyc]

Why not post the latest GFS out in LA LA land, and not an old run? A little different I would say, and also why looking that far ahead in this pattern is just downright foolish

This is depressing 

We are all screwed right now 

In past winters , I would be screwed down here in NYC with SWFE or clippers but the whole northeast is terrible right now.

[dryslot]

No complaints here looking at the EPS.

Particularly impressive since two of those days below 20 had lows of -10 and -8 (the 4th and 7th coldest since the station was moved to the airport).

I wasn’t the biggest fan of the EPS. PAC kind of stinks.
