    Near normal around here per 1971-2000 climb is actually a little cooler than I would have guessed.
  2. 40/70 Benchmark
    Won't be close to March 2012. No chance.
  3. 40/70 Benchmark
    Even a 2018-2019 set up in the absence of such a promient Pacific cold phase could be okay.
  4. 40/70 Benchmark
    I agree, no analogs are perfect and that one proved among the most valuable.
  5. 40/70 Benchmark
    Problem is that we are not all in agremeent as far as what exactly "great" is...

    Jan 2022 is a member of my three red-headed step-triplets.....Dec 5, 2003, PD II and Jan 2022. Together they comprise my #Hall of Pork.

    We're just ball-busting, as usual....if I had trotted those graphics out there, they would have been on me like a fly on shit, too.

    Looks more like Gronk wrote it.

    I think April 1, 1997 is now number 2 for me, but its close...I wasn't very precise with measurements back in HS. I think March 2018 edged it out with 31.5", but the former was far more impressive, regardless. I think after that Jan 2015 and Feb 2013 are about neck and neck at around 27". Feb 2013 was second only to March 1993 in terms of wind.

    Why is the print in hieroglyphics?
  11. 40/70 Benchmark
    Hell, it was only even below average by 1991-2020 climo...it wasn't that cold, it was merely wintry relative to the past several seasons is all anyone was implying...I thought that was pretty clear.
  12. 40/70 Benchmark
    The statement says more about how dreadful of a stretch we have been in than the remarkability of this past season...agreed.
  13. 40/70 Benchmark
    Well, the whole premise was that it was the most consistently wintry season in years, so what are you arguing exactly?
  14. 40/70 Benchmark
    Nobody said it was normal in terms of snowfall.
  15. 40/70 Benchmark
    I average the same as you and consistent snowpack for the better part of two months has not been common for several years. False.
  16. 40/70 Benchmark
    Yea, even though it sucked for snowfall in my area, it was the most consistently wintry season since at least 2018-2019 and perhaps 2017-2018...but hell, 2018 had an extrordinarly warm deviation from winter during February and even 2014-2015 began late, so one could make a case to go back as far as 2013-2014. Did I enjoy this season? No...it blew, but I need to keep it real.
  17. 40/70 Benchmark
    Well, even though some got porcked in the snowfall department, December was a pretty wintry month and that hasn't been the case in years....so its defintely not any shorter than any other recent seasons.
  18. 40/70 Benchmark
    Pretty oppositte patterns (-WPO/vs+WPO this March.
  19. 40/70 Benchmark
    Well, lets see how the DM period ends here because March will definitely be warmer than 2014, so we are going to make up some ground here in terms of warmer departures. I know some folks forecast DF, but I do DM.
  20. 40/70 Benchmark
    You can see the trend that @bluewavewas alluding to the data, whereas the stretch in the 20's had a more even distribution, while this pasat decade is more "boom or bust"...its more an average of extremes now, as oposed to a cluster of near normal seasons back then.
  21. 40/70 Benchmark
    If I'm being honest, I would have expected a bit more snowfall had I known it would be that cold...that being said, I knew by mid January it wasn't going to come together this season.
  22. 40/70 Benchmark
    I don't think that is just a CC issue...I mean, the longer term, multidecadal trend certainly is, but we have had colder outbreaks in more recent history.
  23. 40/70 Benchmark
    I wasn't talking about snow
  24. 40/70 Benchmark
    No...last of it went yesterday....I still have some ice sheets in the ditches as of last night, but no pack per se. Still piles along the sides of the driveway...
  25. 40/70 Benchmark
    Scott, no one would hold it against you if you just rounded up
