    I noticed that as well. Gave me some hope though.

    Ya, it’s mostly rain for me where I live. A few more weeks and I’ll be ready for Spring

    Interesting I wonder if this is the set up that happened in 09-10 Niagara/Toronto proper miss south on some and get rain on the cutters. Got 3 days in a row with some snow cover though which is a nice win. That New Years system gave just enough

    Ya, that’s a good way to put it. But some in Ontario are starting to say make sure you have snowblowers and shovels ready it’s about to become real cold and real snowy
  5. mississaugasnow
    Yep, and then what is a bit annoying is the general public doesn’t understand why Toronto or Chicago aren’t buried in 1-2 feet of snow and -10F The pattern is definitely better and I’m hopeful for a mid size 3-6” storm followed by 20s for highs in the next few weeks. That's where my expectations are currently lol
  6. mississaugasnow
    I’m just wanting a solid 3-6” storm that then stays on the ground for at least a week. The hype about this new pattern has spread to social media so this will be a bit funny if nothing happens in my region. Lots of talk of monster winter storms and frigid air.

    Rochester in 1948-1949 saw 50.9” and 103.2”in 1965-66 Albany in 1948-1949 saw 44.2” and 67.1 in 1965-66

    Toronto is far enough east that I might take a look at Rochester-Albany in 48-49. Could be some inland runners? I’m excited for the second half of winter because I do think we see a turn towards more snow and cold and even if we hit top 5 least (25”) it will feel like a snowy second half
  9. mississaugasnow
    Toronto saw 49.6” in 1948-49 And 52” in 1965-1966 wild the difference!

    Just enough distance between Detroit and Toronto to have different record low years. I think 2009-2010 you guys had an okay winter and obviously the opposite happened in 1936-1937
  11. mississaugasnow
    So for you guys to have a bad year you really have to have a bad year lol One storm in March can make sure you don’t finish top 5. Toronto doesn’t have that luxury
  12. mississaugasnow
    Looking at this list and it’s pretty crazy that with records from 1937 onwards that 4 of the least snowy winters are in the last 20 years. Real rough stretch from 2006-2012
  13. mississaugasnow
    Wow 1936-37 saw about 24” (had to find that as Pearson starts a year later) 1st 2011-2012 saw 16.8” 2nd 2009-2010 saw 20.6” 3rd 1952-1953 saw 21.2” 4th 2006-2007 saw 23.7” 5th 2015-2016 25.9” (1936-37 but that wasn’t Pearson) Currently Toronto has seen 4.1” so we would need to see a pretty snowy mid January to mid April to make sure we don’t crack the top 5 this year
  14. mississaugasnow
    When would you start to talk futility? If I remember correctly April 2016 was coming out of Nino and Toronto saw a 4” storm in early April and a few more 1” event. I believe that April was our snowiest month that winter. That December also saw almost no snow. That winter ended with around 25” with 8” coming in April. So I feel pretty good starting to talk top 5 least snowiest winter for Toronto in the next few weeks.
  15. mississaugasnow
    A couple weeks ago we discussed all time low snowfall records being possibly broken. Though it still is really early are you starting to at least entertain the idea? I think Toronto ends up around 20" on the season which is well below average but not record low. Just enough events in the second half of winter to make sure we don't hit record low. Going to be interesting though. 0.5" expected NYE

    Ya, I haven't seen any tree buds personally. The gardens on the other hand I have seen and I have seen insects out flying around. Not to often I see those end of December.
  17. mississaugasnow
    Are you guys starting to see some buds on trees? Noticed Ontario twitter has been sharing photos of really green grass, tiny buds and some very early spring gardens trying to come to life.
  18. mississaugasnow
    Ya, December will end up colder than November here in Toronto. November is so far 3C warmer and that’s without the next few days coming up closer to average
  19. mississaugasnow
    Yep, should also help get some decent lake effect into February with the cold air.
  20. mississaugasnow
    Going to be real tough for the Great Lakes to see average ice coverage as well.
  21. mississaugasnow
    Ya, it's nice to see the change to more seasonal weather. Certainly opens up the door to at least the chance of some snow. The other hand is that it looks pretty boring and the chance of getting anywhere close to normal snowfall on the season is leaving the station fast. A few consistent weeks of actual winter in late January-February is what I'm banking on. Couple storms (3"+) and some consistent snow cover
  22. mississaugasnow
    are your palms still unprotected? I put mine in the garage but might bring them out for Christmas Eve and Christmas haha
  23. mississaugasnow
    Looking like a nice 1-3” event for GTA. With tomorrow also staying below freezing will allow for a nice Christmas feel.
  24. mississaugasnow
    This is the normal in cm. I converted to inches for this discussion. You can see the bottom right says based on data from 1991-2020
  25. mississaugasnow
    30 year average. Torontos Nov-3.5", Dec- 9.5", Jan- 11.4", Feb- 11" Mar-6.3" Apr-2" Interesting to see that Toronto seems to start a bit earlier and stabilizes, while you guys rocket up and then we both finish March and April near identical. My apologies about saying near 10" in mid December. Actually writing out the averages I guess it's actually about 8.5" at this time.
