  1. 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
  2. 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
  3. Nah those numbers are legitimate. We can also look at Toronto Island airport and Hamilton which tell the same story
  4. 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
  5. Though the GTA is so wide so I’m basing it off Mississauga/downtown Toronto
  6. Officially I think that was 4” though that might calendar day
  7. 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
  8. 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
  9. 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
  10. 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
  11. 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
  12. 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
  13. Thank you for the write up. Should be an interesting afternoon now casting as the GTA and Detroit are right on the line
  14. The GFS continues to show that heavy snow band for Detroit-Toronto for a few hours.
  15. What are your thoughts on the GTA/Niagara?
  16. Ya, my new location has meant famine. We got 6" last March
  17. I think, Ohio, SE Michigan and Southern Ontario (especially Lake Erie shoreline) are hoping the GFS wins out. It's been consistent with a band of 2-4" an hour rates for a while now.
  18. Last 30 years has seen snowiest months and also 4 out of the 5 least snowy winters. This current one is on watch to join the club
  19. So I wonder if that's the new normal going forward. A bit similar to I95 cities. Feast or famine starts to become typical
  20. Im hoping we can get enough of a front end dump and backside 1-2" that we aren't fully looking at bare ground next week with the cold. Toronto saw 5cm yesterday so up to 23cm on the season.
  21. Ya, no different for the eastern lakes. Looking near identical to the system that just went thru. Bring back the December pattern haha
  22. Im still thinking top 5 least snowy for Toronto but will most likely just end up top 10.
  23. The GFS is keeping me barely in the game. One more slight push SE would do it
  24. But overall looks more fun for us on the east side of the forum to track
  25. The arctic air wouldnt help eastern lakes though. Unless you're talking the difference being after the storm passes we go into the freezer. If thats the case to me its the same since its just a cold, snowless ground lol
