if this truly was the last significant measurable snow, then below 30" here for the second time in 10 years, and below 40 for the third, there was a few AN and about avg, winters sprinkled in, but damn... first two winters after moving up here were epic, 90+", had one that came close since, this is a 9 year span now

no prob, there's someone else on this forum from torrington, though I don't see post much, white( something), lawns maybe??

keep it for now let me look at my obs, and I'll get back to you, I mean it's not like we're talking about inches here, but maybe I mistyped one of my obs in the spreadsheet, I've got hand notes too to backup

is that 29.3 for my obs? it's a bit off what I have, not by much but perhaps I mistyped or missed a small event, my obs data has me at 28.5" on the season, including this past event... I haven't gotten on the snow obs thread yet to enter my obs, gotta get on that, hard to do from phone and usually when I'm in my office I primarily focus on work stuff

as I stated before, did an interesting read on that season, in particular that march, good article from Blue Hill observatory about the three storms that March that made it epic, you maybe a few others on here are probably the only ones who actually experienced that month and period from then to the early 70s, where it was as we say, winters of yore. us slightly younger folk begin our winter starting with 77-78 for me anyway, we've had some pretty good March winters in my lifetime, but those 15 or so years had some really good ones, a lot of clipper redevelopment type ones too

I'm with you here, unless March delivers epicocity, get on with spring, I know the chickens certainly want spring to come, first year with them, lost one and had to give the rooster away, but they're producing all winter, ready for growing now too...

would be nice if we can get a replay of march 56, or when was it 2018?, where we had like 3 noreasters within the month

is the 3rd off the table now? I'm having issues loading model data

yeah does sound trippy, but for real, waves man...

dude, finally someone who gets it, it's all wavelengths man, even traffic moves in waves, I've finally gotten my wife to understand this too, and reasons why we either get along with people or don't because of phase shift... anyway back to weather, wind is roaring here now, definitely looks and feels like winter out there, 25/17 with 15 sustained and a 25 gust last five minutes

definitely cyclical because I was looking at other data from another station further away a bit, with longer data history and prior to when the one closest began recording and the almost sinewave like pattern is present, goes up comes down, and some anomalies in between, but overall, peaks and valleys, sun activity perhaps, interesting read about the winter of 55-56, where there were like three big noreasters within two weeks, that year was the biggest here with 177", I obviously didn't take that data but that began the period of over 100" winters until like 71-72 where it tapered off some, interesting stuff

the 80s actually weren't that bad for this particular locale, had some decent seasons, I wasn't here of course but the obs from the station I made the list from averaged over 80" for the decade..90s were a bit more, the oughts were a bit less, then the teens were rising but lower than 90s and 80s, if that makes sense, now we're off to a crappy start to this decade... we'll see what happens next few weeks, I just want spring at this point, get to planting

yeah since 13-14, we've had 3 legit ratters here, I mean under 35", the first two winter here were awesome, had like 30" pack, and 8' piles, but yea, been a tough stretch

yeah man, have a feeling we don't see much more this season, just one of those years, need 1.5 to crack 30 here, some in the subforum got that in one shot in the blizzard, shows just how diverse the weather is in NE, more specifically SNE, such a difference for such a small distance, this I noticed really well when I moved to Winsted from Waterbury, nearly double the snowfall

at 28.5" on the season so at least better than 15-16...the average here since I moved from Waterbury is 63, total average since 1932 from the closest station and my obs since 2013 is just over 82, I did avg by decade and it's been going down since the 60's where the avg peaked at 118", and it steadily rose from the 30's to that peak, plot is interesting

I thought North ORH or north middlsex cty would jake, is that the case?

yeah I'm submitting in between that, 4.75 sn/ip/zr mix still have yet to get above 6" in an event this season, I think I can't remember what I got in the "blizzard"

this crap sucked to clean, hard to get a good measure, but I got 4.5-5" of absolute cement sleet ice garbage, blower wanted nothing to do with it either, can I get one just pure fluff snowstorm this season, jesus

don't think that helps anyone WOR, if it in fact even happens

paws and pellets...

about 3 here and flipping back and forth between IP and SN, AWT at the CT MA line

yeah I imagine we waver here for a bit after thump

I don't think most people look at anything but surface, I try not to even look at them and focus on temps at all the levels of the atmosphere, fascinating stuff, I still struggle with deciphering soundings though

nice blotch of heavies over my head there, ha

funny thing is I sent an email, maybe they did, just seemed odd that all confidence around me north, east, west was for warning criteria and not here
