  1. Is there some sort of a microscale seasonal snowfall map that could be looked at to see what the snowfall distribution is across the region?
  2. The GFS is only correct when it's warmer than the other models.
  3. what about the Friday into Saturday storm? I am seeing our local media outlets predicting snow now and temps in the 30s.
  4. lower than 37 its snow, 36 and lower it can snow
  5. wouldn't ENE be better than easterly? NE wind would be ideal.
  6. RGEM is well known and doesn't look like the others, but GEFS, GEPS and EPS all look very similar to me, especially GEPS and EPS. I am going to start calling it the CEPS from now on, for obvious reasons.
  7. March 1992 may be an analog after a paltry winter season.
  8. But why do their names look so similar? They should change the names so their acronyms dont look alike. GEPS should be changed to CEPS. and GEFS should be changed to AEFS.
  9. Yes, it was actually better a decade ago when you could use it at 48 hours with reasonable confidence. Remember how great it did with January 2016?
  10. wow we should just go by region then Canadian, European and American instead of all these ridiculous acronyms
  11. wait whats the difference between the GEPS and the EPS? we just need to settle on one set of names lol
  12. if the March 1992 analog works out we'll get a couple more around the middle of the month and right around the equinox
  13. Right I dont go by the artificial DJF boundary either but by the entire season. I do think 01-02 was a more historic winter than 72-73 though because it was warmer.
  14. Would this be more like 11/2018 or 2/2008? Both were good busts
  15. 97/98 finished wirh 5.5 though, the DJF is an artificial boundary created by humans, we should go with the overall season numbers It's why 01-02 was the historically bad winter here not 97-98
  16. That was when I wanted to dump liquid helium into the Atlantic I wonder how much it would take?
  17. 1717 - What was perhaps the greatest snow in New England history commenced on this date. During a ten day period a series of four snowstorms dumped three feet of snow upon Boston, and the city was snowbound for two weeks. Up to six feet of snow was reported farther to the north, and drifts covered many one story homes. (David Ludlum) This was the greatest snowstorm in the recorded history of the northeast-- any idea how much we got down here? That it was shockingly warm on this date in 1997, and at the beginning of April we (almost) got a big snowstorm!
  18. these are meh early 90s type of "snow"
  19. the reality is 90% of the storms here are snow to rain, getting a big all snow storm is very rare I dont care for that kind of storm, but some do
  20. you forgot 1982 and 2003 too
  21. 4 inch snowstorms can and have occured right through the first third of April. Check out March-April 1996 and March-April 2018 3 4 inchers in March 1996 and 1 4 incher in April 1996 (JFK) and we had multiple 4 inchers in March 2018 including one 8 incher and 1 in April 2018 that was a 6 incher
  22. so basically a PNA plus or minus 0.5 would be perfect
  23. Yup I don't care about double digit snowstorms this time of year but if we can get multiple 4-6 or even 4-8 inchers that would be awesome, that's what 1996 and 2018 were all about. One 8 incher and two 4 inchers would be just about perfect.
