40/70 Benchmark

I hit 28.

Of course the support will wane for the coastal, but the pinweel through the lakes is full steam ahead. Last 6 years in a nutshell.

He and ineedsnow have to be related.

I can't hold low level cold with a nor' easter lumbering up the coast in January, but lord knows you can't pry it out of my cold, dead hand in April....nope. I'm one with that b1tch until Memorial day.

Sounds about right

Ya....completely ready to ingest ma nature's home brew of rectal porridge, while the balance of the region enjoys a VIP lap dance from spring.

Especially in my portion of the region...soooo prone to that.

I think this is more like the mid to late 70s, where as the PDO flipped from cold to warm. AMO could also switch soon, too.

Almost time to track the swarm of ass mist for the marathon.

I think so, but obviously lets see how it looks next fall. I can't possibly fathom an 8th consecutive down season (I know who can and why) and am going to begin compiling data as to why in June.

@512high, don't cry because this season is over, smile because next season is going to happen.

BTW, raindance just echoed a lot of my thoughts in the ENSO thread moving ahead in relation to the PDO flip, possible el Nino next year, etc. Stand the fu(k by next year.

I'm about ready to sign off....once I get my Feb review and March preview done, I'll largely dissapear until the full seasonal review in May.

I know..imagine if someone showed a map of a blizzard 15 days out and exclaimed "alas, the snow drought is over"

CANSIPS actually had the best seasonal forecast in terms of the pattern...I recal it was consistently the coldest guidance.

Same page on much of this..in fact, I was thinking of the phase switch of the mid to late 70s just yesterday. Great job on the 2013 analog BTW....the snowfall was certainly far less in the NE, but that is a crap shoot. I didn't see your maps, but I am guessing that you had the cold se idea that everyone missed. I def. factored that season in, but clearly not heavily enough since I was too warm. I expected a cold stretch mid season, but December and February were colder than I thought. La Nina was marginal...I can see a case either way...but bottom line is that it was weaker, and weak events have greater variance, obviously. My idea concerning the ultimate intensity and orientation of La Nina worked out very well.

I could certainly see ENSO neutral.

Well, I was referring to where we live.

No way!!

Agree.

Of course, the one that counted tracked over Lowell...

That't the date I mentioned yesterday....7th anniversary special?

Yea, its goes in a cycles. Of course for a while last decade, every sea gull queef got funneled over the BM.

49.1 Hit 50 earlier.

I have to be honest....I was wondering last decade if CC was't INCREASING our climo snowfall here in SNE. I never said that because there wasn't near enough data, and now we see why.
