  1. Interesting data. I think EC is right off the hwy about 5km east of the airport so that could be the cause of a bit of it. The size of GTA means it's going to be difficult to get a good representation of the city. Everyone south of QEW-Gardiner has a much different climate. They all got nearly nothing and had no snow on the ground until today. Next zone is QEW-401 and then 401-407 and 407 north.
  2. I agree. The only plus side is it will finally feel like winter for 10 days. This might be the best stretch of winter for consistent snow cover.
  3. Well aside from about QEW/Gardiner south most of us will have 10 days with snow on the ground
  4. Did any snow make it thru the night? My parents on the lakeshore have nothing and mostly saw a mix with only a little bit of snow
  5. Amazing photos did you guys have Virga to start?
  6. Nothing but virga wasting the heavy returns
  7. I'll be following the reports from NW Ohio and your area close to see what happens on this side of the border. Good luck, hopefully you guys get some sweet rates for a while
  8. So someone 15 years from now will be confused a bit looking at the data haha
  9. Ya 09-10 is looking similar to this style of winter so far Toronto just missed out on that east coast storm that have Rochester and Syracuse 6-12” and is missing this one that’s giving Chicago one
  10. I think you guys generally do better in April storms for some reason. Our April snowstorms are rare but when they do happen disruptive since it’s 1-2” snow 0.5” sleet and 0.10” freezing rain
  11. Nah those numbers are legitimate. We can also look at Toronto Island airport and Hamilton which tell the same story
  12. Good catch. But still very very rare and not really worth discussing April snow like it’s going to give us a legit winter storm. Similar to early November snowstorms
  13. Though the GTA is so wide so I’m basing it off Mississauga/downtown Toronto
  14. Officially I think that was 4” though that might calendar day
  15. Main winter season in GTA with realistic chances at a winter storm are November 15-March 15 there’s the rare years a storm happens just on either side of those dates Ive never seen a 6” April or October snowstorm
  16. I do agree. I can’t speak for SE Michigan but April snows in GTA are more similar to the climo of November 1-15th It can snow and sometimes does but most years it’s 1-2” events, so I don’t classify April as a real winter month in GTA/Niagara just referencing that because you put a lot of emphasis on April snows lol
  17. Well I hope we both get a good front end thump today/tonight so we can go into the cold week with some snow on the ground
  18. Would top 5-10 be considered just below avg to you or futility? Outside of those it's just below average year to me but a top 5 or top 10 least snowy winter is pretty bad
  19. Today is another one. If you go to bed at 8pm and wake up at 6am you'll have no idea it snowed yet Toronto will probably record another 1-3" snowfall
  20. When's the last time we saw so much vanishing snow? Toronto is up to 5" on the month but it's a lot of events like yesterday where it melts within a few hours of falling. Im still pretty convinced top 5 least snowiest season is very doable but we keep seeing 0.5-1" days haha Ill have to check data again but I believe top 10 in the last 90 years is a near lock
  21. Thank you for the write up. Should be an interesting afternoon now casting as the GTA and Detroit are right on the line
  22. The GFS continues to show that heavy snow band for Detroit-Toronto for a few hours.
  23. What are your thoughts on the GTA/Niagara?
