  1. What determines where the cold air goes, Ray? And do we have any predictive power in that department?
  2. lmao oh, and here I was thinking it was a two day snowstorm with temps in the single digits haha
  3. wow what an interestingly cold 2 day snowstorm!
  4. The latest single degree low I can remember happened on 2/28/15, we missed a single digit low in March by only one day. Is this the latest single degree low we've had in at least 30 years, Don? When was the last time we had a single degree low in March? That was such an unusually cold back half of winter too. I bet 1966-67 holds the record for our latest single degree low (and latest 0 temp for Long Island, which happened in March.)
  5. it's an interesting that even just 0.8" of snow can help drop temps Larry I think number 4 should be 3.2"?
  6. Hell, a single digit low at that time would be less shocking than the -1 we had on Valentine's morning in 2016, especially after how warm the previous December was. But were those single digit lows you mentioned above-- specifically in 1958-- after snowstorms? 1957-58 is an analog for this winter, but so is 1972-73.....
  7. That starts Saturday
  8. Anything before Saturday would have been bonus sunshine anyway
  9. 2 weeks of sunshine isn't a bad thing at all.
  10. This just triggered something I read last week-- are you aware that scientists are constructing artificial glaciers to replace the ones that are melting?
  11. I think most would be very happy with several 2-4" events, if we could get one every week for three weeks, that wouldn't be bad at all and some consistent snowcover over those 3 weeks. By the way, Don, what made them choose 46 days for their maps and charts? That seems like such a strange number to pick. It doesn't match any given number of weeks. I would have expected 6 weeks (42 days). edit-- is it because this is a leap month and you're doing the last 15 days of February and all 31 days of March?
  12. That was the all day whiteout, which was such an amazing storm. It does seem like having an early season storm like that increases the chances of late season snow even if there's a big thaw in between.
  13. Or even with winters with less than 6.
  14. Wild, so with less than 6" of snow through February 15, there were no outcomes that even brought us to average snowfall?
  15. I'm curious, what did we have in 2017-18 before mid February and March? I know we had a snow event in mid February that year in the middle of a mild pattern, but didn't we also have a big storm in January? For whatever reason, it seems that getting a big storm earlier in the season increases the likelihood of getting another one later in the season even if there is a long stretch of mild weather in between-- 1966-67 is another case in point (and that was in a -PNA winter too.)
  16. Wow, that looks absolutely amazing. I have to ask, how can you have a horrendous day there, even if it was only 1, with so much snow?
  17. Thanks so much for this Don..... it would be interesting to see some winter analogs and el nino analogs for how well snow seasons did when there was 3" or less of snow through the middle of February, say we make it to Valentine's Day with 3" or less of snow..
  18. Smoking crack again are ya, Freak?

      The more you weenie, the 10x more I post and since my intelligence is maybe a quadrillion times yours, I'll make sure you'll never post again because I'll weenie whatever stupid thing you have to say and so will a bunch of other people who I've messaged about you.

  19. and our wetter regime means more flooding, less sunshine, more mold, etc. It really does feel much more tropical even when it's not summer.
  20. Snowfreak is the Greenskeeper of this forum, he smokes snow like crack.
  21. 00s and 10s were actually snowier
  22. Outside of you, all the other "snow" ID people live in fantasy land in terms of how much snow one should expect around here.
  23. People just need to realize we live in a feast or famine climate, it's why people with "snow" in their names have an unrealistic idea of what our climate is really like and get bipolar this time of year.
  24. this is what's erased the West's drought and returned us into an 80s early 90s/late 90s type pattern and these phases last for 20 years?
  25. the sun is playing hide and seek lol
