Yeah maybe you're right, '04-'05 blow torched at the beginning. It is hard to find another winter with the cold consistency of this one. I think one more big one or not having such a long wait for the first big storm would have sent it to elite territory. I don't like that most of the region didn't get a sig event til late Jan. I know 14-15 did that too but obviously this was not that. Idk, I'd take 10-11 over this one just because it was so prolific for about 5 or 6 weeks. I feel like snowfall wise this one was a bit boring in comparison even if we did end up with a great pack. What made Jan '03 a bust? I'm not remembering that. 03 and 05 had great Marches whereas it appears this one will not. I guess most don't care about that though.

Do you still work at the WCSU Weather Center?

78 now for the last 7 straight minutes so that'll likely be the high, shattered the record by 6F lol

We now hit 78 for 3 straight minutes, not sure if it'll count

Yeah looking at the 4 group tracking sheet here at BDL and I didn't realize we were already down to 5" on Sunday morning. Idk maybe where I live it was a bit more drastic since we probably had more OTG. I'm too young to remember Jan '96. I thought you got porked in the Blizzard of '96? I guess you're speaking generally.

I think if we're done it gets a B or B+. The snowpack was impressive due to the consistent cold and even the cold in absolutes was pretty good at times with highs under 20F several times including the January storm having temps in the single digits with heavy snow. I just don't think it deserves an A when I only got slightly above climo for snowfall. I would take a winter like '02-'03 and '04-'05 over this one just on account of them having significantly more snow but I can see how areas south of me would give it an A since they did so much better in the storm a couple weeks ago. This winter reminded me a lot of 2000-01 but with better results for eastern NE and NYC. Both had a few huge storms without much in between.

This might be the fastest I've ever seen deep snowpack vaporize. It's right up there with February 2011.

It's 77/41 now

Well I was looking at the 2' 75 miles away...plus for here it's a worse solution than for you. But anyway, doesn't matter, not gonna happen.

If that verifies I quit the hobby

We're talking big time stuff, a major league blizzard the way I see it. Thanks for making this thread. One of the all time great storms and of course I-95 busts of all time. A truly long duration event too, we'll probably never see something like that in our lifetimes with this new fast flow BS. I bet schools didn't close ahead of time like they do now. The good old days, when you had to wait to see if your school closed at the bottom of the screen on NBC30.

DIT's long lost cousin?

I hope the GFS is wrong. Not because I don't want the Mass weenies to get snow but I really could do without ZR. Almost couldn't bring out the garbage bins last night without falling on my ass.

Blizzard conditions

Really hope you're wrong on that

Total fail at BDL, had snow/snow grains for like half an hour and then it just stopped even though radar returns were still decent lol

A 0.0% chance of being "doored"

LFG!!!!! MORCH 2012 REDUX!

Great River Park?
