Pocatello, ID set their seasonal snowfall record on this date with a total of 85.7 inches. Evansville, IN set their new monthly snowfall record. The 12.7 inches of snow in twenty four hours at Columbia, MO set a new February snowfall record for the location. (Ref. Wilson Wx. History) 2001: February 25 (24th -25th ) Freezing rain followed by snow of 2 to 15 inches in southeast South Dakota with winds of 50 mph caused much drifting. Travel was not possible in many areas on Interstate 80 and parts of Interstate 29. Parts of these interstate roads were closed for up to 18 hours. Even state and county snow plows pulled off the roads due to hazardous conditions. (Ref. Weather Guide Calendar with Phenomenal Weather Events 2012 Accord Pub. 2011, USA) 2009 - Two Alaskan communities set their all-time records for highest windspeed. St. Paul registers a wind of 91 mph, and on St George Island the wind reaches 94 mph. 2010: A powerful nor'easter spread significant snow and windy conditions across the Middle Atlantic region from Thursday, February 25 into Friday, February 26. An area of low pressure developed off the Carolina coast late Wednesday night, February 24, and then strengthened as it tracked northward to near Long Island, New York, by Thursday evening. As low pressure aloft deepened over the Mid-Atlantic coast Thursday night into Friday, the surface low retrograded and moved westward into northern New Jersey and southern New York. By February 27, the low pushed into southern New England and gradually weakened over the weekend. Strong wind gusts were measured throughout the Middle Atlantic region due to this coastal storm. Some of the highest wind gusts recorded include 62 mph measured at Cape May, New Jersey; 52 mph at the Atlantic City Marina; 51 mph at the Mount Pocono Airport and Lewes, Delaware; and 50 mph at Dover Air Force Base. In addition, wind gusts of 40 mph or higher were recorded in Philadelphia, Wilmington, and Allentown. Considerable blowing and drifting snow resulted, especially from the Poconos eastward into northern New Jersey. Snow drifts as high as 3 to 5 feet were seen across portions of Warren and Sussex counties in New Jersey. Total accumulations of 20 inches or more were recorded from Morris and Sussex counties in New Jersey, westward into Monroe County, Pennsylvania. In addition, a band of 12 to 18 inches of snow accumulation was measured from Warren and Morris counties in New Jersey westward to Lehigh County, Pennsylvania. In addition to snow that accumulated during the daytime on Thursday, many locations across the region experienced a heavier burst of snow with gusty winds Thursday night into early Friday, thanks to additional moisture wrapped around the low-pressure system. Some areas saw snowfall rates of 1 to 2 inches per hour, mainly from northern New Jersey and into the Poconos. Central Park ended the month with 36.9 inches of snow, making this the snowiest month since records began in 1869. 2017: An EF1 tornado was confirmed in Goshen and Conway County, MA. This tornado was the first-ever recorded in February for M.A. since records began. T

We still watching .. with a bit of a perk

Nice...GFS (In the game)

Mid 20’s and snow. We take

Two big uns , a ton of small uns and snowpack almost all winter save for maybe 2 weeks or so . As good as it gets anymore

GFS is sweet this run. Snow for all....

Gfs shifting south early next week.

about an inch over CT and eastern LI is from the clipper

Hrrr had .1 for us

Yeah we should be well up into the 40s tomorrow as long as that storm misses to the south. I would think GFS is wrong since everything else is so far south. Hopefully we'll be adding to our snow totals early next week.

Gfs shifting south for monday

Talk dirty to me.

Ignore the GFS (especially within 24-36 hours) at your peril this year...could be another 1-2" on northern edge

Oh man...plenty cold enough and better run

Further S so should be a better run

It is either going to score a coup or be completely embarrassed. Would love to see it win back to back though.

Much colder and nice slug of moisture out west heading for us

It was nice to see this event overperform a little bit. I got 1.3" here. I figured it was gonna be more like a half inch or maybe three quarters.

Damn, you are Denzel Washington?.

GFS looks....pretty good so far

Your resident n00b is as well ✋
