00/01 feels like 20/21 in that both were above average snowfall in a sea of bad years.
-
16 IMBY for PD2 11.5 for 2016

Mine was 1996 27 inches 2013 22 inches 2006 20.5 2011 18

The record will all come down to the last few days of the month. If the cold push is a couple days earlier we lose the record. If it's a couple days later we get it. It all comes down to timing.
-
I think your further north. I believe we are reverting back to the pre 2000 pattern setup, which was more west coast trough east coast ridging. Now, that can work quite favorably for your area as you can get more coastal huggers, boundary setups. Coastal areas will be the opposite with more rain.
-
Yeah the further SE the better last year. I was over 8 inches below normal up here.
-
Also, this is why 2019 to now has not shaken me. I lived through so many 5 plus year snowless periods that 2000 through 2018 is an outlier to me while the past 5 years, 2 ratters, 2 below average and one above average snowfall winter feels normal to me.
-
Don't sleep on 2000/2001, solidly above average snowfall year with a December blizzard.
-
Yeah I grew up in the 80s and 90s and it was horrific.
-
Seems like the super Nino flipped the switch. Do you think the 97/98 super Nino did the same in ushering in the snowy 2000/2010s? Or perhaps another event?
-
If we did not have so much rain in 97 98, I feel that it would have also been at the top. Although hard to get this level of sunshine in a strong Nino.
-
I think this is the year to do it. We have a perfect setup. Triple dip la Nina creating a deep/static trough out west and the late/potentially not till spring change to Blocking in the arctic. My gut says the cold push gets delayed a few days and the record is ours. Really shows how everything has to lineup right to break records. If that cold push happened a few days earlier we lose the record. Timing is everything as they say.
-
I agree. However, and this is a question, wouldn't the shorter wavelengths lessen the impact of the RNA as we head to late February and March?
-
Gonna be a real close call for temps to beat out 02 and 32 with the cooler temps expected next week. I hope we can break the record but may be a nail biter at the end.
-
Except the west. Incredible winter out there with snow in Vegas and Tuscan. Ridge here trough there. Records warmth here opposite there. 1990s style!
-
Ha 100%. I think the young ones are getting exposure to what we experienced in the early 90s! Only way this would be nicer is if it was the weekend.
-
We get the good weather during our usual nasty weather month, while the usually warm SW gets our snow!
-
You just described 97/98. Just a freak post 3/15 event.
-
Hey Don, to Liberty's post, how many times have we had little to no December snowfall followed by January and February shut outs? Off the top of my head 89/90 comes to mind. Maybe 91/92 however we ended up with 2 March snowstorms.
-
You cannot look at mileage in this instance. The third wave was essentially eliminated as a result of the strength of the 2nd low. Lesses the strength and the third wave hits us. Maybe as much as December 2000. BROOKLYNWX - am I off here?
-
They are not just talking about their region, they were discussing the entire SE ridge setup/catalyst.
-
Go back and review December. If that second storm was less intense, the third wave, which at times the models showed a major hit, would have clicked us. The warm waters did not do anything to energize or make the 3rd wave a cutter. I am taking your response above as the red taggers Mets in the NE forum have no idea what they are talking about. Are you a MET? You understand more than them.?
-
No. They are not saying Only New England was unlucky. They spoke of the entire setup. They are not saying luck only applies to New England.
-
We are still behind 01/02 on temps so not historic yet. Plus the snowfall that season could easily be passed with a lucky setup this month.
-
I disagree. If the second storm was not intense we could have had a 6 plus event easily. Then the whole historic discussion is gone. If you want to debate it. Raise it to the NE Mets who are 100% on the luck side. And no, they are not saying only New England was unlucky while CC was the reason for anyone outside of NE.
