December 2024 - Best look to an early December pattern in many a year!

Just picked up almost 2” of snow very fast.
Lake Effect streamers FTW.  Clipped the ASOS but got us better to the south.
METAR KMVL 122215Z AUTO 24006KT 1/4SM +SN VV012 M04/M07 A3009

Looks like we got something too on the cameras..It’s still pretty wintery out considering what happened yesterday…no where near the pack eraser last year around this time…

Must have been 93, 94 was terrible, one storm all year.

93 was pretty epic as I recall. That's the year NYC closed the bridges for de-icing on several occasions. I think a pedestrian died from falling ice on a bridge. Snow on the ground for weeks IIRC.

Doesn’t take a rocket scientist to understand that after 3 months of zero rain/precipitation…it’s gonna flip.  I mean we don’t live in a desert here in NE.  Always gonna even out at some point.  

You never know. No one does. Could be we get rain. Could be we don't.

Your cousins came looking for me the other night when I said it wasn't going to snow.

Yeah man, we recorded 2.29” rainfall at Mtn Ops Center but all of it was a cold rain.

The Mansfield Stake went from 38” fluffy to 33” water injected glacial pack.  Even in the base area, the loss was probably even less as it was colder wedged in there.

Down at my place we are at 6” from 12”. I thought it was going to be smoked.

Conditions are a bit rougher than they were, but even still, some low angle natural snow terrain was back open, which means it’s not terrible, ha ha.

The big thing here was a 500 vertical foot washout on Gondolier.  These seem to happen in a different place each Dec now when we get the big water amounts.  This was the largest yet and requires excavators to fix.  These channels go deep into the ground.  The power of water is crazy.

State's greatest snowfall, 34", was at Cape May (which has the lowest average snowfall of any NJ town).  It was part of the Feb 1989 blast that also notched a -2 at Tallahassee, FL's only subzero temp.

Wasn't there a report of 36" from White Horse in the 96 storm or are we just talking official reporting stations?
