Happy birthday Jon!

Overachieving temps out there today...up to 57 in Maytown.

Yes sir, I had a brief shower that dented the gauge to the tune of 0.1" between 9pm and 10pm.

I actually think about those 2 weeks a lot. My greatest snow depth in my lifetime (I'm 60) occurred in 2010. I had more snow (43" versus 40") in 2010 as well. And the 2nd storm in 2010 was a legitimate blizzard with probably the most intense 6-8 hours of snow/wind that I've witnessed other than perhaps the 1978 storm. On the flip side, that week in 1996 was wall to wall winter. As was mentioned, there were 3 separate events spaced out on Sunday, Tuesday and Friday. And it was cold all week. The 5 days between the 2 February 2010 storms was quite benign. They were both incredible. I guess from a "wow" factor, standing outside in the blizzard on February 10, 2010 was surreal between the rate of snowfall, wind speed, visibility and snow depth. So with that, I give a very slight edge to 2010 because I highly doubt I will ever see that much snow in my yard again in my life.

Huh. If I quoted you to my wife, I'd likely have no joy left in my life...

Thank you for sharing! My final 2025 precip came out to 54.27". Interesting in that I'm closer to MDT than you but still managed more total precip even though amounts dropped off significantly to my NW. My seasonal snowfall stands at 5.8".

To be completely fair - My first love when it comes to weather is snow. A close second is winter in general. And that is likely why MOST of us are here... This is; however, the American Weather forum. It is not solely about winter weather. There is a very active tropical thread that has the "hot" tag during every US tropical threat/event. Others are here for Severe weather...there are a couple in the MA thread that almost exclusively post only during the spring/summer storm season. I'll add here that I enjoy tracking weather events that are not snow producers in our area...one of the greatest storms I've tracked in my lifetime was Sandy. I just want to make sure that we all respect what each person happens to enjoy. I will also say that complaining about winter weather won't gather much sympathy since most here are rooting for just that. Including cold weather.

Ever since I made my post the temp has risen steadily. It's now 22.7. LOL

I was just going to say, my CTP forecast low is 21. Right now it's 15.8 here...

Indiana was the 112th ranked football team 24 months ago. For years they were pretty much the automatic dub on a team's schedule. Amazing turnaround. Good for them!

Just want to take a moment and wish all my weather friends a very happy New Year. 2025 was a difficult year on many levels including an unfortunate situation on here that saw a prominent poster leave our group due to a post of mine that shook me greatly. Here's hoping for many blessings for all. Thank you for being a great outlet. I appreciate this place so very much.

Cantore would lose all self-control in that.

My "issue" with MU is all about the tone in his messages. It seems like he's aggressively defending his warm-biased ideas. He's always been a warm weather guy but he's never been so brazen about it. It feels like he's been getting some sort of negative feedback and is fighting back. Whatever it is, it's not a good look.

MU continues to make very...interesting posts. Needless to say, he's not enthusiastic over the advertised pattern in January. Meaning, he isn't buying it.

Winds have subsided here over the past hour. Appreciate the break.
