Clown maps like our snow ones?

I’m all in on warmer sunny days until we track the next disappointment.

@RevWarReenactor  I drew the approximate location of the 20", 25", and 30" snowfall averages on your map to show where the real snow climo zones are. 

Great map! I’m in Newark and have had 16.5 so far. Just to the south of me (Middletown etc) has had much less. Some of that is typical but much more pronounced this year.  Similar to DC, certain areas have gotten screwed. I know you are pointing to other factors that could be driving it- and I don’t disagree- but some of it has been sheer bad luck on where the bands have set up. Too early to know if it’s a trend or just an aberration.

So have W and N of DC...look at Winchester and my area!  It's just the snowfall climo changes more radically over a slightly shorter distance in and around Philly...you have to go a bit further NW of DC and Baltimore to get the same effect but its there...I have had 45" and there is a HUGE cutoff just to my southeast...same as through the Philly area.  But I am doing better then Philly and on par with the NW philly burbs...as is climo.  

Agree. But even given that dynamic, the disparity between DC and suburbs vs Philly and suburbs is even more dramatic this year.

DC beat Philly in 2019 and both had barely any snow in 2020. Philly will win this year. But it’s not as lopsided as perception. Thing is when DC/Balt misses to the north they often assume everyone north of them did great when often the north trend screwed Philly some too. They may have done marginally better but not as good as people in here think.  Then when we beat Philly like in several storms in 2010 and 2014 and 2015 and 2016 and 2019 people don’t even notice.  I grew up 15 miles from Philly in S NJ. My climo was same as south Philly and I was about 10 miles due east of the airport and my totals almost always matched Philly Int. Where I lived in N VA near Herndon was better for snow. Trust me.  Philly was better then downtown DC though. Kind of on par with the DC NW burbs. But there is this perception Philly climo is way better and like mine up here. It isn’t. I spent 15 years there complaint the same way people here do when 9/10 storms screwed me over and I got 1” slop to rain while 20 miles NW was getting 4-8” or more. Same thing. 

Spot on. But W and N of Philly have done very well this year. 

50 and sunny would be perfect.

Awesome more sleet here in Newark. Not a flake of snow.

But somehow it snowed in San Antonio last night. What a year.

This one was mostly sleet but it’s been a good February.

Personally I think the RGEM won todays event by a wide margin. But what do I know?

Need that graph of total snow by model with final grades. 

If no snow, hoping for early spring 

Snow back to sleet back to snow

I'm not one who jumps on the snowiest model and ignores the rest, I'm just making an observation...but in the end it's just my observation. You do you man, you now your stuff and I've never disputed that. I will continue to read your analysis

You are going to give him a meltdown

This is false.  It's all frozen not just N and W.  It's frozen well S and E of 95

Euro needs a win...

Tons of precip so it cant be that. Must be temps.

This discussion reminds me of the old lite beer commercials 

Tastes great. Less filling.
