  1. The next few weeks look pretty toasty. Currently 2nd least snowiest season at YYZ. Need 2" to get into 3rd
  2. The older I get the less I actually care about snow lol. I'll gladly take a massive heat wave with 95-105 for days on end followed by severe storms. Toronto also doesnt really get big dogs so I don't grade my winters based on if we saw a 24" storm. Big storms that get hype here are generally 8-12" so thats considered a big dog to me. The 16-24" are historical storms so in a completely different league and not one I expect to see often.
  3. Yep, I agree that the agricultural impacts awful. Spring is up to SE Virginia and nearing the KY/TN line. The next two weeks should see it make some big gains north
  4. March Madness basketball and the first 60s (where I live) go hand in hand. Hearing the CBS jingle and seeing sun and 60F is amazing. Hopefully it's a much hotter summer here compared to last year.
  5. haha thats because you'd enjoy an April snowstorm. I find March 2012 interesting from a weather standpoint. Overall though I enjoy warm springs and hot summers. Im not a big fan of 30s in early May with wet snow the same way most here dont like 50s in January and sun.
  6. It would be interesting to see a late March snowstorm. A few aspects of this winter can be pretty much confirmed now. The lack of ice on the Great Lakes is guaranteed to be well below average and maybe even record breaking. A cold snap in mid-late march would need to be historic in duration and temperature departures for it to budge and even then im unsure. Snow is the next one but still too early to confirm that for GTA-Rochester-Syracuse-Boston.
  7. It's interesting that your futility records are so low. Toronto, Rochester, Syracuse are still well within futility records.
  8. Ya, it wont change my grade by much. This winter will be a F
  9. Yep, Im a big fan of snow on ground. 36 days with at least a trace of snow on the ground. The highlight was 15 in a row in mid January We didnt see as much melting as you guys yesterday. Grass is still covered here and a few squalls overnight helped. So Should be able to make it to Tuesday with snow on the ground
  10. wow you guys just wont let Toronto catch up haha. You guys are somehow getting everything to go your way in a bad winter lol
  11. We should probably pass 2009-2010 20" lol The 24" starts to get interesting as does 26"
  12. 2023-2024 winter leaves the least snowy winter of 2011-2012. Now at 19" on the year with todays 3" Hamilton and my backyard are now at 12" on the year.
  13. Reason I say that is because it seems like winter ends right at march 15th but that's not correct. Lots of 2-5" storms after March 15th
  14. Yep, first half of March is still very much big winter storm potential. Seems at least for Toronto it seems to drop off very fast after mid March. I wonder if it makes sense to lower my threshold to 4". I wonder if 6" is too high for Mid March onwards
  15. Interesting that Toronto didnt get close to 6" for any of those. March 21st 2008 was 0". Earlier that March (4th-9th) is when Toronto saw 12" within a 5 day span and lots of news articles about that. That must be what I was remembering about 08. In a winter like this I wouldnt mind 12" within a 5 day span haha.
  16. Yep, last 10. The previous 10 (2003-2013) I think had some good ones. Never mind. Just checked and not really then either lol. They do happen but counting on them isn’t the greatest odds
  17. Ya, it’s going to be interesting. Though in the last 10 seasons Toronto hasn’t recorded a 6” storm after March 15th. The April storm got close but was just a bit shy. Crazy that between March 15-31st Torontos biggest event has been around 4-5” (April I believe was 5.7”)
  18. @Snowstormsand @michsnowfreak Whats the percentage you put at Toronto and Detroit seeing another 10" of snow this winter? 10" more would push Toronto out of top 10 least snowy winter. Construction has resumed/started real early. Got the earliest email in my near decade of running my division asking if we have begun the 2024 season. Ill send back we dont resume for another 6 weeks still but crazy to see.
  19. Im already moving onto spring weather lol. Today was nice running in shorts.
  20. That month was great but more for the deep snowpack for the month. GHDII was only a 9" storm here (Hamilton/west end GTA). But we had over 12" on the ground for almost the entire month and half the month had 16-20" snow depth (Hamilton) Toronto only got 5" from that storm but still had an impressive 6-8" on the ground for the entire month.
  21. Thats a tough one. I get what your saying but above average night lows in spring also helps gets the vegetation and green up started faster. 53F low 45F is better compared to 60F low 32F Im up at 5am in the spring so scrapping frost off my truck and freezing would mean it skews my perception as well lol
  22. wow, you guys have been cashing in down there. Toronto will finish with around 11" which is pretty much normal for January.
