After a season of longing for an NAO, and watching everything bury NNE during a year that I thought would be epic, the grande finale consisted of the rug getting pulled out from under me in the other direction.
20 year anniversary! I did fine in Wilmington with like 20" after a brief start as sleet and rain, but it was orgasmic at my present locale....like 30".
March 1984.
My first weather memory....I watched the distinct transition from sheets of rain to cat paws flash across the neighborhood at a very deliberate pace during the PM, then I awoke the next morning to about a foot of spring concrete.
I was hooked-
I remember that early April event...couple weeks earlier and it would have been great. Saw some cat paws in Sandown, NH at a fam gathering. That was another winter that left something on the table..second half could have been pretty epic.
I only remember because I froze my ass off walking to my internship off campus at UML, especially since I stopped to measure for the comparison to Wilmington lol
I got 11" in Wilmington.....CF was near Reading/rt 128 most of the event, but got to me near the end, which added moisture to the snow. When I went to school at UML, they had 13" of pure powder.
