A few sleet pellets came down for a few minutes earlier.  Nice to see.

12” of snow in Central NJ from one storm is still a ton. We’ve been spoiled since the early 2000s. I remember the late 90s were horrendous. Between April 1996 and 12/30/00 couldn’t get any event more than a few inches. Don’t want to disturb the hornet nest but we’re due for a down period again. Hopefully this winter can produce but the background Niña state and -PDO is always a concern. 

It is, I was just saying as a kid it seemed overwhelming and didn't think I'd see anything like it again.  I was quite wrong, lol.  I appreciate all snow knowing that seasons like last year happen, so I enjoy what I can get.

One of those rare events in which the MA is all snow & Boston changes to rain. Locally just north of Philly 12" with that storm & 18" with the subsequent late FEB event. Both events were big dumps within relatively short timeframes and the JAN event was accompanied by thunder. 

Over 3" of snow all the down to ATL.

This one was the one that made me love snow.  12" of snow in CNJ as a 9 year old seemed like a ton.  

The 25 degree morning helped my trees drop most of their remaining leaves.  Friday looking nice for some leaf cleanup.

They got those maps from the same link I  posted last night, one page back in this thread.

And it was cold off the presses by the time they posted it this afternoon.

But not posted anywhere on this site from anyone.  

13/14 was the 2nd best winter in my lifetime with 66" near the Rutgers area

2009-10 would have still been a blockbuster winter lmao that early Feb stretch would have been up here instead of in DC

one bad winter last year and everyone is losing their damn minds. it's a shame

yup.  2 bad years out of the last 4 really warped peoples minds. 2010-2020 might have averaged the most snow for a decade we've had (or if not really close).  Around here I averaged a hair under 36" for the decade and the long term 100+ year average is like 28".

2.23" so far, that was a surprise when I woke up...drizzle now, will it fill back in?

Damn, wtf!  I just checked my cocorahs gauge and am at 1.83".  Hopefully not much more rain, my pool liner floated a bit in spots.  It's amazing that you got a half inch more only like 3 or 4 miles away.

Many of the deniers do not have a political agenda. They have a anti government  agenda regardless of which party is in "control"  Some deniers have an anti science agenda. Others believe it is part of a conspiracy to force people to purchase expensive electric vehicles.  I once had someone tell me that global warming was being manipulated to help solar panel companies increase sales. 

I once had someone in Government telling me that we had 12 years left...the stupidity goes both ways.  Being an extremist and just as bad as a denier.  Plus, GW and cycles can work in tandem with each other.  It doesn't have to be just GW.
