Didn't 2020-21 go over 40"?

What a difference a week makes. Last Monday, my sister wore her sneakers for the first time this season, and we went on a walk around the neighborhood. Now, we have a lot of snow to shovel. (We've been out at least twice now. Me three times.)

Seeing the snow reports from Providence, those Baltimore/DC numbers are not surprising at all. I think most of us knew from the beginning the storm was going to hit the Baltimore/DC area or Providence/Boston, but not both.

Here you go: https://x.com/NWS_MountHolly/status/2026004588776829119 PHL - 14.0 (30.0 for the season) ACY - 16.9 Trenton - 16.4 Mt. Holly office - 20.3

lol at the snow hole in the northwest corner with only 4 inches.

Yeah, I just realized that. Just the dates are wrong.

This should be Jan 31-Feb 3, 2021. The event ended on the 3rd, not the 1st: 2021-01-31 26 20 23.0 -10.6 42 0 0.12 2.0 0 2021-02-01 34 22 28.0 -5.7 37 0 1.85 14.8 5 2021-02-02 33 30 31.5 -2.3 33 0 0.13 0.4 14 2021-02-03 37 29 33.0 -0.9 32 0 0.01 0.2 13

But don't the records start in 1963 or 66? It misses out on historical storms, like 1958. I'm sure either the February or March event would be on there if it extended that far.

I think the record is Jan 31, 2021. I know that one went for at least 48, maybe even close to 72, hours.

What about 10-11? 13-14? 14-15?

Yeah, that's a record, but I believe the por starts in 1963 or 1966, so storms like February and March 1958 aren't accounted for in there.

Who told you that? I could have told you that was false. Phase 3 is the coldest for February.

I just hope the final snow total crosses 14 inches at PHL, to get to 30 on the season. If it stays under, you can almost bet there will be no more accumulating snow this year.

Thank goodness we already scraped off the snow 1.5 times already.

lol, the opposite of 3/4/2001.

So basically, for my area, it would be this: I was in the jackpot for the top storm, but I got higher amounts on the bottom (but the jackpot was to the East and North, a classical Nor'easter).

She's a chief meteorologist for ABC, along with Lee Goldberg.

FWIW, Ginger Zee's tweet (at around the same time) had Mt. Holly at 16 inches.

The 19.2 at the Mt. Holly office seems a bit high, considering where PHL, Trenton, and AC measured. Islip is going to set a new record snowfall, but to me, the list feels incomplete with the por not including 1958. I wish their por started about 10 years earlier.

Yeah, that outlier warm February really skewed the stats for that winter. That was the only month with above average temperatures and below average snowfall. December, January, March, and April were all cold, but that very warm February made the winter near normal to slightly above average temperaturewise. April 2, 2018 probably should have had a snow measurement (people say the T measurement at the Airport was suspect to keep the seasonal total below 30 inches), but I don't really know for sure as I was on vacation in Portugal that day.

I believe 2013-14 was the last time we got above average snow all 4 months.

13.7 as of 7 am: https://x.com/NWS_MountHolly/status/2025923299184693488 AC - 14.5 Trenton - 15.6

Not always. 2016 was preceded by 2013-14 and 2014-15, both all time winters. And 2006 was preceded by 2002-03, 2003-04, and 2004-05, all cold and snowy winters. Also, don't forget about 2009-10 and 2010-11. This proves that recently it seems like good winters come in stretches.

Sucks that Islip's records doesn't start like 10 years earlier. It misses out on 1957-58 and 1960-61. I would like to have seen where the February and March 1958 blizzards would have ranked.

Neither scenario is going to happen. I see mostly seasonable, 40s and 50s, the first week of March. Three separate winter events in the first 7 days of March is not even realistic. That has never happened before, not even in the historic March 2018 (which the 3 events were spread over 3 weeks). At best, we're only going to get one, and even then, I think the temperatures are a bit too warm and the sun angle is a bit too high for a snow event. If any precipitation falls during the first week of March, it will be rain.
