For many of them, they wouldn't recognize a foot of snow if they were walking through it. There are some wonderful exceptions, however, and they stand out to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 8" on Christmas 2017 (and 1978 in Fort Kent) is about it for snow on that day, but have more on Christmas Eve, especially the 15" thunderblizzard in 1966. Only T-Day snow that comes to mind was 2005, only 3.6" but the snow-starved kids (then living in SC) enjoyed 8 hours of steady daytime flakes. Only later did we learn of the 2 tornados on the midcoast that day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is in Northern Queens. Looking back at weather records. 2" of snowfall was recorded in Central Park on 12/24/98. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is true the last decade or so. Opposite of my childhood when Oct or Nov snows were rare but Christmas was more reliable - which I prefer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I can picture the snowy landscape outside about as vividly as it if it happened yesterday. Funny how memories work. 2 hours ago, CoastalWx said: My memory is Christmas 2002 sucked because it was cancelled for rain. And I was 23. I was thigh deep in glory with like 20” falling in 12 hours on Xmas afternoon and evening near ALB. Will never top that. Last winter living in ALB and it produced 50” in 10 days between 12/25 and 1/4. If you can cue up a period to get 4 feet of snow, the holiday week takes the cake. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavisStraight Posted Thursday at 10:34 PM Share Posted Thursday at 10:34 PM I remember a good storm I think it was 1977 about 2-3 days before Christmas and then an arctic front blew in blowing the snow around, that was a last minute save and it was a decent snowfall, Will would remember.

Wasted half the season in both cases. Actually it would be like not getting any heat /T-storms before 6/25…which happens alot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torch Tiger Posted Thursday at 10:45 PM Share Posted Thursday at 10:45 PM not arguing, climo is what it is. 1" or so through 12/19 and miserable looking lr should not lead someone to feel enthusiastic about snow. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendrite Posted Thursday at 11:13 PM Share Posted Thursday at 11:13 PM I’ll add that the midpoint of the BOS snow season is Feb 1. And I’m fully aware that if the forecast looks bleak around that time that ditty and I try our hardest to cancel the rest of winter since we hate snow with higher sun angle. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherwiz Posted Thursday at 11:22 PM Share Posted Thursday at 11:22 PM When I think of snow around the holidays in New England, I don’t think about Christmas or Christmas Eve, I think of Tom Brady destroying the Titans in the snow.
