  1. Does anyone know if the winter of 1931-32 was a La Nina?
  2. That's interesting. Up here in Canada, they are calling what we are in now the second wave, and it is correlating almost exactly with the second wave of the Spanish Flu pandemic.
  3. Wow, that's crazy. I wonder why it's so bad in California?
  4. I honestly used to try and defend him on this board, but lately he has become absolutely ridiculous. He was good up to about 10 years ago, became terrible once he left accuweather.
  5. It's interesting how similar this Fall season has been to that of 1975, another La Nina year, in some ways. Very warm first half of November, cooler conditions late November. There was a big storm in Toronto around December 20th, 1975, according to Environment Canada data.
  6. There was a storm in late January 2004 that gave almost a foot of snow to Toronto, and also to NYC. Not very common, I would think.
  7. Best Christmas/holiday weather period of the past decade was that of 2017, in my opinion.
  8. I'm expecting mostly cold rain out of this in Toronto. Is there any model saying anything differently?
  9. That does look terrible. I was thinking maybe this winter would be like that of 1975-76? That was a La Nina that saw a very warm first two weeks of November.
  10. Yup, we got hit hard out my way. Near zero visibility around 7 PM.
  11. I think Toronto came close prior to the Groundhog day storm in 2011. January 2-3, 1999 was also classed as a blizzard, I believe. I would love to have experienced the January 1966 storm.
  12. Wondering if that big squall is going to pass through Toronto early Friday afternoon?
  13. Do you think we'll get impacted by the squalls on Thursday and Friday?
  14. We'll see what happens overnight. My 6-8" call might still be good.
  15. An unusual set-up for sure. It's snowing steadily here in Toronto. Hope you guys change over soon!
  16. I'm starting to think bust too. Not as impressive as I was expecting, unless heavy snow movies in late tonight and overnight.
  17. Here's hoping. I was a bit concerned earlier today when the snow didn't seem to be sticking.
  18. Wow, you can't get a more perfect track for Toronto and Buffalo than that February 1984 storm!
  19. Late February 1984 in Toronto. Some similarities. Temperatures in the low 50s Fahrenheit on the 23rd-24th, followed by 36. 4 cm (14-15") of snow on 27th-28th, followed by temperatures in the 20s to end the month.
  20. Late February 1984 in Toronto. Some similarities. 36 .4 cm (14-15" ) of snow on the 27th-28th, just days after temperatures in the low 50s on the 23-24th. Storm was followed by highs in the low 20s.
  21. I'm telling you it's like what I've read about the great leap year storm of February 1984. Not sure if anyone here is old enough to remember it - I was 3 going on 4.
  22. What about February 7, 2013. I could have sworn we saw over a foot with that storm.
