These light snow events before mixing has been the default pattern since last winter. Very 70’s to early 90’s like. You lean to appreciate any snow that you get.

um no i do not appreciate 1-2 inch snowfalls...

Brooklyn

wow you already have more snow on the ground then was predicted last night for your area...

for those who like snow in march it would not be sticking like this in the daytime due to sun angle..

Impressive CONUS warmth for the 1st half of meteorological winter.

 

2015-2016 december and january were torches worse then this winter then we had the blizzard which saved that winter..

reminds me of the 1930's...

was -15 in 1934 and 106 in  1936 not comparable to those extremes..

we need a massive volcanic eruption to cool the earth for the next few years maybe we will get lucky ..

3 of the last 5 Marches have featured above normal snows here.  If you go back to pre-2010, snow was scarce in March but more plentiful in December-interesting how there's certain patterns over a period of time.

march snow does not excite me with high sun angle will have hard time sticking in daytime...

Even in the Midwest the big snows have pretty much bypassed all of the big cities. The seasonal totals since July 1 so far including yesterdays snow at the largest Midwest cities.

Cleveland..........9.5
Indianapolis....10.4
Omaha..............5.6
St. Louis............9.1
Detroit.............14.3
Des Moines.....12.6
Chicago...........12.9
Kansas city........9.3

 

I'm sitting at 16.1 inches right now in what so far has been a pretty dull winter, and I'm ahead of all of them. Also contrary to popular belief several of these cities are surprisingly above their seasonal norms despite the very modest totals. Unless you live in the northern plains or along the great lakes the Midwest is not the snow haven many believe it to be.
 

why use july august sept oct nov for snow totals when it does not snow in the big cities those months..

Can you try reading what I actually said vs what personal biases you are bringing to the discussion. The bulk means the majority of the seasonal snowfall. The seasons where some locations had more snowfall before January 20th than after are few and far between. Some stations pulled this off in 95-96, 03-04, and 10-11. But they are the exception rather than the rule. So the recent decadal snowfall that I posted is representative of that distribution.

Newark snowfall

before January 20th.....after January 20th

1996.....46.9....31.5

2011.....37.9....30.3

2004.....30.9.....16.9

you made a post saying after january 19 what a odd date to set unless it fit in with your own agenda why not say january 1 or feb 1 why the 19th of january?

The bulk of our seasonal snowfall usually comes after January 19th. Just goes to show what an extreme outlier the 10-11 winter was.

NYC snowfall 

............By January 19th......After January 19th

18-19....7.1......13.4

17-18....17.9....23.0

16-17....10.1....20.1

15-16....0.4......32.4

14-15....3.7......46.6

13-14....15.0....42.4

12-13....5.1.....21.0

11-12....2.9.....4.5

10-11...31.9....30.0

09-10....13.2...38.2

•  

so the history of nyc snow is only since 2010 according to your post..we have had plenty of big snowstorms before jan 19.....we have had 13 snowstorms of a foot or more of snow before jan 19 and one day which i did not add happened on jan 19-20..

If it does get colder on 1/20, that doesn’t cancel out the previous 3 weeks of warmth for this month. The last week of January won’t salvage this month lol

if it snows a lot it will cancel the first 3 weeks of january... it's all about the snow who cares about the warmth...

saw a few flurries this morning probably only snow i will see for the rest of the month...

hmm so in years 1932 1950 and 1907 when their was no global climate change january 1-15 were warmer..

point to me in the next 100 years any future march that will produce a storm like the 1996 january blizzard?

What?

comparing march to january because of  a few years we had decent snow in march.. their is no comparison in terms of cold or blizzard potential that can happen in january but not march...
