HIPPYVALLEY Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 I am 100% convinced we have lost March for winter wx in the current climate. maybe it goes back the other way down the road..but for now..we need to plan on having 3 months of winter..and if we're lucky some years, it starts in November If that's the case than a lousy Dec. will have a lot of people depressed thinking there is only 8 more weeks of winter. I don't know what the cause is but only one of the past 5 Marches has been decent and 3 have been horrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dryslot Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 There was a time on eastern when we had a swct subforum along with a back and forth debate of whether SWCT was new england or mid atlantic. My post was meant to be comical, hence the I remember that, It does not belong in the mid atlantic thats for sure, Maybe NY Metro......lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamarack Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 SWFE and Miller B's.. Almost forgot the Clippahs as welll That would be admirable. In that setup, your getting 115" would likely bring 130"+ IMBY. Ginx, Where's Vim Toot? Last SWFE winter he approached 200". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dryslot Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Well here are some years to look at for a good rep of varying types of winters Forgot about that thread, Very helpful that Will puts that together, I guess my concerns is how far south the gradient ends up being this winter if its more like 2007-2008 or other wise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VT home base is close to PQI, though that doesn't invalidate your present label. LOL..so a record smashing winter for them by like 40 inches? CAR had 198" in 07-08, PQI "only" 158" despite being only 12 miles south. I suspect much of the difference is measuring technique rather than gradient.

HoarfrostHubb Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 KTUBES- Dobbs Ferry NY 38 inches KSOCKS- Rindge NH 113 inches Nice! (as was the 97" for Hubb'town) I'm not nearly that bold... I'm thinking 75-90% of avg for most... maybe a bit above normal for the northern teir folks. But I am not well versed enough One of these days we will be getting a dud.

CoastalWx Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 In a gradient south winter? I truly think that we'll need some help from the NAO or hopefully a NPAC type ridging. If we do...then maybe it's not such a gradient around these parts. It's funny...last year I never felt truly worried about the winter and my gut turned out right. This winter, I'm a little more nervous...for a couple of reasons. 1) The gradient..although I think overall KBOS will be on the better side of it. 2) Marine taint and a winter like '00-'01. It wasn't a bad winter for BOS, but when 40 miles away gets 60" more of snow....that is disappointing. I do think if we can keep a semblance of blocking and/or some good ole NPAC ridging...that will make for a decent winter for a good chunk of SNE. If Steve is right...I'll take that snowfall in a heartbeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Steve is right...I'll take that snowfall in a heartbeat. At least right now..I'm thinking blocking is going to be strong enough to force things south to some degree. I.e SNE gets more snow than NNE..not that they won;t get snow.just whiffed more often than not....but that the cold actually overwhelms the pattern so much that the natural gradient is forced south..that would mean the M/A does ok as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
