40/70 Benchmark

Its close between 1995-1996 and 2014-2015...depends on my mood. If I have a real hankering for the D Drip...2015. But 1995-1996 was perfect in every way and at the end of the day gave me 12" more snow.

Its due primarily to lower averages, but also SNE being more prone to ocean storms.

Yea, from SNE points south....it changes for NNE.

And lets get one thing straight...snowfall has sucked near the coast. Not inland. Much of the interior is near normal. I know my spot isn't the best example, but if you extrapolate January outpout through February and March, I am over 80". Pretty sure much of the interior can participate in that exercise and arrive at least near normal. Yes, it has been very warm because of December....January was nothing extreme. More awful luck to get that much precipitation in the absence of exotic warmth and have that little snow near the coast.

I guess....but will anyone but Kevin care if we get another Feb 2013, 1983 like event? Plenty will enjoy that. Maybe even Jan 2016, Feb 2010 shifted north....

I wouldn't call it "11th hour" in a warm ENSO.....especially over the past 20 years....just hitting 6ish-

Welcome back, man.

Okay, lets wait for mind month and note any changes in your posting content. You seem to always have a bullet in the chamber for those long range inferno charts.....but I never see you post a map with a snow storm or negative anomaly....your like snowman's evil twin.

Even @snowman19lately has been making efforts at honest engagement....not sure why that is so difficult for some. There will be a warm up in early February, sure post it....but post everything else, too.

Even during the warmst, or coldest of winters...there is always data that runs to the contrary worthy of discussion....anyone viewing information through a single lens is doing themselves and by extension the entire a forum a great disservice.

Can I honestly ask you something? If you want so badly to be taken more seriously and have the 5PPD removed, why is your presentation of data so one-sided? I understand that the past two winters have been biased warm with little snowfall, but in the past, you have simply dissapeared during severe bouts of winter weather. I have been trying to give you the benefit fo the doubt, but you make that difficult.

I never picked the ball up, so no prob. We wait and pepare long range blogs.

I'd pepare for a few flurries.

Yea, all I meant...just initially.

Any chance you hook and latter into another forum?

Right...I mean in that snap shot. I don't mean its going to remain that way.

Need to get the MJO through phase 7 and into 8.

I'd like that ridge a bit further east....couple that with an east-leaning block and I could see the deep-interior folks being strangled.

The December 2019 event was in that ballpark, too...I had 2-3" more inches in that one TBH, but the 1/7/2024 deal had more ferocious rates....those predawn hours that Sunday were nuts.

Yea, this is all I mean. The storm was a blockbuser for that corridor over the interior....but it was relatively limited within the scope of the region..all I meant. No complaints on my end. My best event since March 2018.

I mean the coast has had hardly any snow fall all season.

I was plenty satified with the 19" that fell at my house, but it was over a relatvely small area...only thing.

Hell, I would take that-

Same shit last season in December and March....

Yea, I am going to issue a blog update today or tomorrow, and then just keep my mouth shut. I'm sick of writing checks that the amtosphere doesn't cash lol
