    Danbury does not need this

    Danbury needs this
  3. EastonSN+
    I just performed a deep dive for the Danbury area. My conclusion is that Danbury requires 3 scenarios to snow (bullseye) 1.) Moderate Blocking. 00 through 11 had far more blocking episodes than 12 through now. They are too far NW for storms such as last January where the bulk is a long the coast and east (or 14/15). Also, they cannot have strong blocking or the December 09 scenario plays out where the moisture does not get far enough north. 2.) Coastal hugger. They DID score on a couple occasions, however the hugger, until a couple years ago, was mostly extinct. They did well during the massive upstate blizzard a couple of years ago, however the fact that we get so few of these now hurts that area. 3.) Overrunning events. They have elevation and are away from the coast, so they do fairly well with these. However, few foot plus accums happen during these events. I remember growing up in Norwalk in the 80s and 90s and whenever we went to the Danbury Mall there was always snow on the ground, and back home it was always barren. When coastal CT does well, generally Danbury does not. 12 through this year generally the coast and east have done well. This has led to the Danbury snow shortfall. I truly believe we are heading into a 70 through 99 snow drought again (started 19/20). If we continue to see huggers return, Danbury should make up ground while us coasties fall back to the 70 through 99 average snowfall. Now, I do not think CC will have much affect on the snow difference, for lost snow due to higher temps will be offset by larger snow amounts when it does snow. If I were to wager, Danbury's average will start to climb again while Long island/coastal CT sees the drought of 70 through 99.

    Not this

    This is what's needed.

    In the end we could not beat out the triple dip la Nina. At least we know the next time it happens we are breaking records!

    I am starting to think that we finally break the futility record this year. While ECMWF gets the MJO in 8, GEFS completely kills the wave in 7. I feel that the ECMWF scenario is the only hope.

    Are u sure you have the correct winter? I remember only one mixed event in 13/14, which was 12 inches followed by over an inch of rain followed by 1.5 inches. All the other storms were in the 20s and snow
  9. EastonSN+
    I remember having 58 on the year in 13/14 with the GFS showing a 16 incher in 5 days followed by and 8 incher a week later and another storm queed up. Then it all went south (literally). It 100% could have beaten 95/96.
  10. EastonSN+
    I am hopeful I can add a little to my season total at the very least. Currently I am at 1.5 for the year.
  11. EastonSN+
    See here is why we have to agree to disagree. I do not buy into our climate completely changed after 2018. I believe the warming is a steady progress. We are nowhere close to calling 17/18, 13/14 extinct. We will only find out with time.

    Take a 95/96 setup again. Now let's do 2 things. 1. We snip off the November and April 8 inch total. 2. We add snow to the mid winter storms due to higher ocean temps and fuel. With the above the record CAN be broken
  13. EastonSN+
    It was their record. No reason that CPK cannot break their record..
  14. EastonSN+
    They change but if it can snow 4 inches in April it can snow much much more in March. With the PV on our side and moved a little bit can be MAJOR especially if they occur overnight.
  15. EastonSN+
    Boston thought the same thing about limitations before 14/15 happened.
  16. EastonSN+
    Coastal water temps are less of a concern in March. You cannot say that in 14 those March storms would snow in DC and not CPK. In that theory DC would do better than Boston
  17. EastonSN+
    Yeah I don't get all these no more March snow calls. It literally just snowed in May. The PV did not disappear.
  18. EastonSN+
    Correct. It was their 10/11.
  19. EastonSN+
    It snowed in DC in 3 storms. We could have broken the record. Talking CPK here not coastal NJ or Brooklyn.
  20. EastonSN+
    I disagree. Our record is lower due to latitude, so we need less snow to break the record. I can think of a single reason as to why it can't happen.
  21. EastonSN+
    13/14 for CPK was 58. if March produced and was not suppressed record broken likely.
  22. EastonSN+
    Boston broke theirs in 6 weeks. Was a terrible winter for them outside of that. Also 13/14 was as close to wall to wall as you can get and may have broken the record if not for the March suppression.
  23. EastonSN+
    I guess my question is, why can't a setup like 13/14 happen again? PV stuck on our side? March less suppressive could have broken the record.
  24. EastonSN+
    Question. Why can't we have a wall to wall season like 95/96 I'm the past 6 years we have had accumulating snows in both November and April. Even a Dusting in May. May be slightly harder but not impossible. We just need a static favorable pattern. They are relatively rare but they happen.
  25. EastonSN+
    How about a 13/14 setup? That March with all the suppression could nail us. Perhaps we beat the record the same way Boston did, a 6 week torrid stretch I feel like 13/14 gets overlooked too often. We could have challenged 95/96 if March wasn't too suppressive.
