Baroclinic Zone Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Added a couple more 10ths between late last night and this AM's OES. Sitting back at #6 again this year. SE MA is the new snow capital of New England. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Had to take a screenshot of this one. Columbia, CT #8, Stowe VT #9 on April 5th. 33.6% of normal baby! Something we never thought possible and probably will never see again in our lifetime. A full 50" lower than the previous worst season of 2011-12 in my years up here.

JC-CT Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 you, Garth and I within 1 inch. No slant stickers Yeah, look at that. And Kevin at 47" is in the ballpark of what I'd expect as well. It's funny, this is the first year I've actually kept track of a seasonal total and it has ended up a lot more than what I would have guessed if I just think back to the major storms. I would have probably guessed 30-35". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 I had BOS in 35-45 as my range. Snowfall is a guessing game and a wild azz one at that....but in the words of a famous elevated weenie...AWT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Hold the presses there. Your season isn't done yet. Been saying that since February... I know what you mean but honestly there isn't a single person up here who thinks it'll snow again. I've had like a cummulative 12" since January. Why would it change now?

SouthCoastMA Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Average around here I believe is 35-40", so I'm at 100%. Or 106.25% if I assume the average is 37.5". Saved by the bell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd kill kittens for 80-110% of normal like a lot of posters seem to be now. That'd be a 100-130" total for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 PF closer to a Ray meltdown.Oh no we melted yesterday.This was a great winter for anyone over 80% of normal...that's all you can ask for. We bested BOS 2011-12 for frustration levels...at least that winter you didn't watch Philly get 5 advisory/warning level events . When tamarack is starting to lose it that's when you know it's gotten bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Just for a reference, what's 33% of BOS area annual snowfall? That would be about 14.5" or so. But for you, 33% of snowfall is much more of a deviation since your variance is so much smaller than ours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When tamarack is starting to lose it that's when you know it's gotten bad. And I'm at 53% of my avg, not 33%, so even if it's the least for any of my 43 winters in Maine, it's not as epically terrible as north and central VT and adjacent NY. That would be about 14.5" or so. But for you, 33% of snowfall is much more of a deviation since your variance is so much smaller than ours. Good point, and even more true farther north. If CAR had even a 50% winter, it would be their least snowy in 77 years of record.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly didn't think under 50% (60" or less basically) was even possible here, but I guess it supports JSpin's calculation of a 1 in 115 year season.

You have a decent shot at it, but I still think you are spiking the football at the 5 yard line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 + 1.8... 39.3" STD Probably a one in a hundred year deal to have New Haven, CT in the same league as most NNE inhabited elevations for seasonal snowfall come April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC-CT Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 Possibly, but you have no idea how persistent this pattern has been for us. And there's nothing on the progs that would indicate a change in that. Its now April and still banging out the same pattern it has since early January. Hey, I said 5 yard line, not 50.

powderfreak Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 Hey, I said 5 yard line, not 50. Haha, true. And I figured that was more a model thread post so moving it. Just a fascinating winter in terms of what can go wrong will go wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
