    The downfall of December needs to be studied.
  2. Snowstorms
    Yeah we've definitely had a lot of brown Christmases the last 10 years. Only 4 winters since 2014 here. The 4th was just under an inch so technically 3.

    Would be nice if Nina Decembers could act like typical Nina Decembers. The last time we had a typical Nina December was 2017. From 2000 - 2019, only 2011 was a warm Nina December.

    Maybe the La Nina is finally doing what it would in the past. Cool the oceans and planet.

    It's close to Bethlehem. Also really nice during Christmas.

    I avoid Time Square every time I go, too crowded for me. Expensive restaurants are just a waste of money. I heard there is a home alone live show but I don't know where.

    Off topic, but is NYC worth visiting pre Christmas or is that all just movie/social media hype? And why are hotels in Manhattan so expensive rn.

    The first week of Dec 2008 was pretty cold too. So definitely been a long time since we've seen a cold start to December, so it's nice. Although, at least locally, 2010, 2008, and 2002 were more colder.

    The Georgian Bay band was a little surprise. We don't see see lake effect bands extend that far south. Thanks to the snow cover, YYZ got down to 12 last night. Our coldest low so far. Hoping we can both see something more widespread so we can have a piece of the pie together.

    Looks like HRRR nailed the Georgian bay band. Measured 2.1" with the band today in Woodbridge, just north of Toronto. About 5" on the ground now. Nice to see snow piles again on the edge of my driveway. Winter wonderland

    London got slammed today with 20-30". Good thing it was moved. You would've gotten stuck.
  12. Snowstorms
    Just measured 2.5" from this clipper. Looking like a winter wonderland. HRRR has been showing a strong LES band off Georgian Bay tomorrow that reaches into Toronto and possibly dropping up to 2" especially north of 401. We'll see if that pans out.

    Excited for my occasional 5 minute burst of heavy flurries.

    Low of -27F tonight feeling like -42 with a high of -20F tomorrow in Regina, SK. Bone chilling cold and quite the pattern reversal from the record breaking warm start to Nov. https://weather.gc.ca/en/location/index.html?coords=50.450,-104.617

    How is the most recent -PDO pattern (2019 - present) different than prior -PDO periods (i.e., 2005-2014 or 1960-1976) that featured more prominent cold winters? Perhaps the marine heatwave is having an effect on the PDO?

    Snow cover is building pretty fast across Western Canada with a few storms that have passed through the region this week and again into next week. After a record breaking warm start to November, things flipped pretty quickly out west. Currently 12 in Calgary. Only thing concerning is the lack of ice around Hudson Bay.
  17. Snowstorms
    Happy Thanksgiving to you as well If skies clear up tonight, YYZ will likely make it down to 2C (35F) as well.

    Yeah it's been a crazy wet summer for us. I got stuck on the 427 yesterday because of the flooding. Though I attribute half the flooding due to poor infrastructure and a lack of improvements over the last few decades. We are now sitting at 34.5" of precip for the year and already above our yearly average of 31.7".
  19. Snowstorms
    Hoping to hit our 2nd 70 of the year tomorrow, if not, mid next week looks like a safe bet lol.
  20. Snowstorms
    7th least snowiest on record. Here's the top 10 going back to 1840. Note I used YYZ from 1955-onwards.
  21. Snowstorms
    Not happening. Just an initial look at the models and upper air pattern would suggest winter is largely over for us. The storm this week was underwhelming and only produced snow further north and east. YYZ will likely finish at 26.3" for the season, well below our 44.5" average. This winter receives an F grade from me. Hopefully this was our last sustained cold too, ready for some warmth and thunderstorms now.

    @mississaugasnowWatching the Tues-Thurs storm closely right now. Still a few days out but with the lingering cold air from the high in Quebec, there could be the potential for a messy storm across the GTA. Potential is there for rain, ice pellets, and snow. Might be winter's grand finale.
  23. Snowstorms
    For us, the two most recent late winter storms would have to be (not including today): Apr 3/4, 2016 - 5.5" Mat 23, 2011 - 5.0" Our climo supports more smaller events (<3") than bigger storms after mid March.
  24. Snowstorms
    I just measured 6.2" in my backyard. Great storm. This storm will push YYZ ahead of 06-07 and 15-16, which would put it at 6th lowest ever. If we used a combination of Toronto and North York (1840-present) then 2023-24 would be 4th lowest lol. Doesn't matter how we spin it, this winter was a monstrosity for all of us.
  25. Snowstorms
    @mississaugasnowYYZ has somehow surpassed 09-10 and 52-53 and is now sitting at 4th least snowiest on record. Friday's storm could make the difference if we surpass 06-07 or not. Won't change anything. This was winter was total horseshit. But glad we avoided a futility winter.
