I was hoping no one would win the Super Bowl.....

Chris, has NYC had 10 out of the last 35 seasons with less than 10" of snowfall like JFK has had?
-
who was more sad at the lack of snow lol
-
The Dakotas are right up there too
-
It goes with my intuition that 2017-18 was colder and snowier beforehand so the SSW just brought back the cold snowy pattern that had already happened earlier that winter. And if that's the case, the only thing the SSW will do is make it a little colder, but also drier lol
-
Thanks, 2013-14 was very similar to 1993-94 which is what I thought. Had some amazing winters in the 2010s (40"+) but none of those matched 1995-96, 2002-03 or 1960-61, which were our three historic winters.
-
I was intuitively wondering about this Chris, since we had already had a blizzard in early January 2018 a month before the SSW happened.
-
that indicates healthy active soil!
-
2001-02 was such a classic, I wonder if it will ever be beaten spring and summer was so nice and warm to hot too
-
ah I thought it was the Winter Severity Index (WSI), it would be interesting to see winters ranked that way alongside this
-
you can see the migration of the SE ridge over several years with the warmest air heading to northern NE and the change of tropical cyclone tracks over the last few years
-
at least it's dry and sunny and warm as opposed to the wet and mild we were getting in January
-
no philly is inland, in 20-30 years we're going to be more like ACY. Probably 20, not even 30
-
in new england (a completely different climate from ours) they are sheltered from it for awhile they won't see the big drop for decades.
-
inland areas even south of us will do better with snowfall than we will, especially with elevation
-
Chris can you show the top 5 at JFK too please? I'm confident 2002-03 is near the top of the list, as should 1960-61 be
-
why do people care about Danbury lol? it's not the place to live to see a lot of snow
-
There was no other triple dip la nina that was anything like this. The full snowfall record at JFK is alarming, 10 out of the last 35 winters have been under 10 inch snowfall. A winter like this is far more likely than the HECS 50" winters we have been talking about, and ENSO doesn't matter. Less than 10" snowfall winters are almost as likely as winters with 30" or more of snow.
-
Good to see it will be sunny most of the time. I've started planting.
-
a moment of silence, February 11-12 is peak snowfall season for us, some of our best HECS have occurred on these two days.
-
The February storm where we had like 8 inches of snow and then heavy rain around VD. No 20 inch snowstorm which we need one to be an HECS, which makes winters like 95-96 and 02-03 superior to me.
-
Wow that was our snowiest season on record until 1995-96
-
what was JFK's low?
-
I wonder if this will change if we create more green spaces which we are starting to do. The concrete needs to be trashed.
-
I mean it was close, I'd say B+ maybe A-, but closer to B+ for three reasons (1- lots of mixed events here, 2- no HECS, 3- March disappointment.) For Philly and interior NJ A. I'm flexible on the three month 10+ snowfall thing, it's either that or two months of 20+ inches.
