The data got colder for our storm window00z 12z

Jan 94 I was- 8BN with 23 inches of snow with a wicked ice storm

You misrepresent things quite often. I get excited about weather, and let some of that excitement come through on the board, hoping to be like a bright light sometimes. I have been very optimistic on this Winter, from the start. I think there was one period in December where the pattern was bad but I predicted the 11" snowstorm well in advance.. remember you were even asking me, if not la nina and el nino then when, and I responded that although nothing was currently showing on models, we will probably be at average snowfall after the next few weeks, this la nina was/is not a "dead pattern".. and here we are. Besides that, it's unbelievable and childish that everything is about someone's bias.. so many extraverts on this board communicate like that. like you can only think in blacks and whites. Nevermind that there is actually a weather forecast being made. I should not get a "doom and gloom" bias from being down on snow over the last several Winters. We have been below average and like 90% of the storms I get right! If model shows snow 5-7 days out, I say too warm or rain, and it rains, that's not a bias! I agree that next Winter is not a definite good year, this Winters ridge in the Rockies and West coast is concerning to me. When we get a warm pattern some future Winter, it could torch. That's not a "doom and gloom bias", Im discussing the science of the situation. Patterns in the west lead us by time, sometimes years. History also says that this Winters pattern of cold NE/warm SW is likely to continue through March, and even Apr-Aug to some extent. I just made a post in ENSO thread about it. We may still have some opportunities this Winter.

Nothing here Temps rise to 31 Pre treatment rds waste Need the rain next weekend to wash this crap off the rds

1 more Feb 1995 and the year summary you know why SRI sucks for snow. Although Dec 95 was awesome

I suppose it’s possible…the more I read, apparently this place is a bit of a rad pit and has fell into the 30s multiple times in recent years. So my guess is that if this station is legit, it’s probably not very old and it probably is more common than you’d think to see 0C there.

I looked hard but NADA. I have a couple of newsletters but summer editions. Literally hundreds of observers from RI Conn Mass. This was the form I used

This is the year for us to pull something like that off lol….even 20:1 is a couple inches.

Nope, they're about 1/2 mile away, through the woods.

Actually the morning of Wednesday, the 21st, it was 6 degrees here, but that afternoon it got mild, and was close to 40, but that Wednesday night it snowed, and the cold has been locked ever since. Whether one likes it or not, Impressive is right. And With another 6-7 more days of sub freezing temps yet to come…it’s quite the story.

Maybe they got siting tips from our friend?

Nice, because the OP looks awful

Models are all signaling that there will be a winter storm(s) coming up in the next week or 2 - IMO there is a good chance most of the region receives at least 6 inches total for the month.

what area did that cover and is there anything still available that i can use?

which Jan 94? I see theres Jan 3-4, Jan 7-8 and jan 17-18 1994 on Rays WS Archive. The main archive stops at 94-95 so i wont be doing 93-94 storms unless its a big one, then theyll go in the Historic Snowstorms section. Just havent got to many of them yet. There is 7 so far pre 1994 season. I misread the thing i quoted i thought he said 95.

Yeah, the cold got real south. Was in San Juan for a week. Even there yesterday the “chilly” high was 76 while, plus/minus 85 rest of my week. Weird Feb day for them. Off and on heavy tropical-like rain. 3” in general, 6” in spots. Interesting reading the NWS Office’s daily AFDs to see the unique factors that make up their forecast. They’ve been talking about the side effects from our cold airmass. Rained so bad I couldn’t fly island to mainland yesterday.

WB 0Z EURO AI held.

There’s a lot of junk reported obs here too. Here’s the mins from the morning of the 3rdand about where that location seems to be.

It's odd because we had reports in our RICONN wx observation network from PVD

Is that Salem 3.6SE you on cocorahs? its almost in the exact same spot you described

No Jan 94?

Max 16⁰ ... Min 6⁰ ... Snow : 0.4"

Of course you will but it's from a certified wx station sanctioned by Cuba wx service so there is that
