    I try to keep it objective, as we all should.

    October Euro seasonal gives me 46.3" of snowfall from November-April...same, exact total as 1997-1998.
  3. 40/70 Benchmark
    The only interesting weather on the coastal plane of Mass is winter weather....unless you want to count hurricanes, which have been absent since 1991.

    I understand why the snowfall tangent in a main ENSO thread can be frustrating for some, and am sorry for that, but the fact is that that a large percentage of weather circles share a common bond; snowfall is what first compelled us to crawl over to the window, and ultimately acted as the catalyst for that nascent interest in weather that has continued to flourish to the extent that it carries us through even our darkest hours today. It's the fountain of youth in that we get to relive that same, youthful and eternally hopeful jubilance that life would have otherwise long since stolen from us...it's that unique lived experience that binds us with the strongest of social fabric, and it's that unique lived experience that drives the autistic inertia that culminates in my drafting of the longest winter outlook known to man each fall , despite having two jobs and 4 children under the ago of 7. Hope that answers your question, there, spoony-fork.

    You have a subforum for your CC autism. I think the autism implication here is a restricted interest, and I really don't think that fits, dude.....I think I cover a great deal when I write about weather....including CC.
  6. 40/70 Benchmark
    Yes, it's generally viewed as one of the more compelling elements of weather, which is why it's such a point of focus amongst weather circles. I understand why someone who adds nothing else other than snowfall related banter may elicit some frustration from a few, but I really don't think I fall into that category.

    ENSO is tied to everything, which is why this thread encompasses just about everything....it's generally accepted and tacitly understood.
  8. 40/70 Benchmark
    Same reason you talk about climate change in an El Nino thread.
  9. 40/70 Benchmark
    Should lead to the the plateau of the weekly peak.
  10. 40/70 Benchmark
    Right...I get it. Less snow....not 1.5-3' over interior SNE, but plowable nonetheless. Same page.
  11. 40/70 Benchmark
    Sure, which is why I understand there wouldn't be 2' in the hills of NW RI if that storm had occurred during the winter, but plows would have been out in that region as sure as Adam is recycling posts about the record El Nino in some foreign language on X as we speak.
  12. 40/70 Benchmark
    Yea, I'm like 30mi NNW of Boston....right on the NH border.
  13. 40/70 Benchmark
    You what's funny and sad at the same time? I had 46.3" that winter...since 2017-2018 I have had TWO seasons, including last year, that were better than that. Forgive me taking it and this is how things evolve.
  14. 40/70 Benchmark
    Okay, your definition of CNE is off and presumably biased by your southern perspective. CNE is from like route 2 northward....we essentially agree then. I knew there must have been something lost in translation-
  15. 40/70 Benchmark
    Chris, you're wrong. December 1992 did exactly what I am saying...it buried most of SNE. I was in a suburb N of Boston and had 20"....Boston had like 9", as did much of N RI. The southern third of the region would have had issues, sure. I said MUCH of SNE...NOT ALL. You are saying "antecedent warmth"....which inherently implies a dearth of +PP to the north. If there is a high in place, it will take time to dislodge that cold a stone's throw from the shore.
  16. 40/70 Benchmark
    Now, if you want to argue that there won't be any cold, that is a different issue....but you time that track with a polar high, and there would be a major snowfall across much of Mass/CT/RI. Is the capture that far south and tug back to NJ ideal? No, but I'm not claiming it would have been 2/6/1978...nonetheless, it would have been a major winter storm.
  17. 40/70 Benchmark
    Nope.....much of SNE would have been buried on that track....it got captured and backed into the Jersey shore before drifting up to the cape post-occlusion. Your portrayal is disingenuous and makes it sound as though it barreled over the Jersey shore and straight into CT or RI.
  18. 40/70 Benchmark
    Storm track of the nor'easter last week was nice.
  19. 40/70 Benchmark
    I wouldn't say that given major El Nino climo....I think lower in latitude has the best shot at above climo snowfall.
  20. 40/70 Benchmark
    We were really paid back 100 years later!!
  21. 40/70 Benchmark
    This is totally anecdotal, but I really doubt it considering the stretch from which we are just emerging. I think we are on par for some positive regression in terms of snowfall...I understand the CC-oriented counter to that, and it's perfectly valid, so no need to get into that...ultimately all we can do is guess, and that is mine.
  22. 40/70 Benchmark
    Looks like October will def. be +NAO, which is good.
  23. 40/70 Benchmark
    Hopefully we can displace the ridge so far south this winter that we can pull off a Nina-like gradient pattern overlaid onto that diesel STJ....slightly further south 2007-2008
  24. 40/70 Benchmark
    My guess is I'll be tic higher than KASH, so about 32.
  25. 40/70 Benchmark
    Yea, I was shocked.
