For me, that's one of the factors that actually has historical weight behind it in terms of how it relates to a good winter...And with a possible weak Modoki setting up (and hearing some rumblings that perhaps it could turn into a two-year event)...I'm hopeful that I'll be using my shovel after a warning level event again either this winter, next winter, or both! (Wasn't there only one solar minimum in recent decades where we DIDN'T cash in somehow? Barring that terrible setup...we oughta be in pretty good shape, right?)

You got that right....Welcome to winter in the MA...where 10 scales need to be balanced just so to get snow...and can be one tip away from horror...lol

Hey @BTRWx's Thanks Giving Michael might help us get to that 3.5 inch sweet spot for Modki Octobers!

Some consolation bands reaching Baltimore...lol

Just out of curiousity...just how often does a NE suppression pattern setup like it did in 09-10? Lol Gotta be rare, right?

Man I hate our geography sometimes...lol Which one appears to be winning?

Sigh...just don't know what it's been this year...just some kind of anti-weather excitement forcefield over the I-95 corridor. Just no matter what...but the shore has done well all year. Just can't get anything in! It's been a year of blocks with just enough bad timing to make us just miss...smh Hope next year is better!

Sweet momma...what's that, an imaginary Cat 6??

What was the deepest? (Are we just talking about a difference of a few mbs? Lol)

A hurricane-hole!!! What is it this year where we can't get anything exciting to trend north enough? Lol (Quite frankly the Carolinas would benefit from a north trend) Mercy! The year of the south and the north...

So essentially...around here, if ya see stretches of downright, teens/single digits frigid snow is less likely (which happens more in a La Niña?) But, if ya see temps that are the average to slightly below-average...more storms (but even then ya need more atmosphere stuff to battle that 32 degree line just cold enough?) Mercy...he have got to have the most complex region for getting snow in the entire country!!! Now, I take it 2014-15 had said frigid temps but also included above-average snow because it was more of a negative-neutral?

Hey, I ain't too concerned about one more crap winter...because if history is any indicator...the next one COULD be good if not great! Our time is coming...lol

Sounds too much like last winter...lol So instead of Nina driving that effect, it would be an east-based NAO?

That'll do it...lol (what is with their measurements, anyway??)

Yeah that is kinda weird...wonder what the total rainfall was for that year? (this year it just feels like it's gonna keep raining buckets...lol) P.S. That 09-10 snowfall amount isn't quite accurate is it? Wasn't it like 70 inches or something? Lol
