Now it's starting to get interesting. The north trend is catching on with the big guys. -

I didn't actually see it, but I read on the New England forum it backed off South some on the last two runs. I never heard of it till today, so I'd like to see something else on tonight's 0z runs to support it. -
That's 64 days in a row by my count. I didnt start tracking snow coverage days until 2016/17. I had 85 days total that year which is still my highest in the last ten. I'm at 61 days for this season so we've got a shot, but we need another storm or two.

That's a nice jump. Starting to feel like a trend has begun. -

I'm not sure how old you are but we've had some really good winters the last 35 years. This winter doesn't compete with those yet. Let's see where it stands at the end of March. -

Good enough for me. I never heard of it until today, but It's never been wrong since I've followed it. -
I've only been keeping snow coverage records for 10 years but this isn't the top season yet, with 60 days and counting, in the last ten. 2016/17 was 85 days, and 2017/18 was 70 days, helped along of course by an epic March and beginning of April. If we can have another solid four weeks it should beat both.

Really just eight hours. The game started at 6 PM and the snow came in like a wall into the city between 2 and 3 AM. -

You're talking about the year the Superbowl was in the Meadowlands? Starting game time temp was 48° and 8 hours later, while some were still returning home in the early am, the snow began and the city ended up with over 8 inches. If the snow started 6-8 hours earlier it would have been the most memorable Super bowl for weather of all time. -

Who knew. I never noticed it in all these years. Do we have to address you as Sir IrishRob17 now? -

I do admire your perseverance, always have, misguided though it may be at times. -

Many of us won't hit 50, and for those that do it will most likely be one day for a couple of hours. -

In fairness the conversation began with a discussion of the number of days of snow cover so far this winter. I never thought deer would become the main topic, but this is how conversation goes sometimes. -

The deer are disgusting, people that don't see them up close might not understand that. They sleep under the large pines in the back because the snowpack is not as deep and they leave a mess. I'll leave it at that. -
Morning low of 11°. Day 60 with snow cover beating winter of 2020/2021 which was the last winter with above average snowfall, 59 inches that winter imby. Still at 43.8 inches for this winter, 5 inches or so below seasonal norm for the entire winter.
