How Crappy Will Your Winter Be?

[moneypitmike]

TIme to post your revised thoughts on the  season for your backyards.

[dendrite]

lol at the highest being 24"+

CON has never had a winter under 24"...

[weathafella]

One big storm and a few dinklesh*ts and you're 24+.

[ORH_wxman]

ORH has had one.

Lol at the options indeed.

19-24 seems about right for this year. The average seasonal is around 30 and I doubt we make that. All standards for the crapiest of crappy are set by 2001-2002, with 7" (one advisory event) that year with 3" and a couple .5-1.5 deals. Even 11-12 we managed about 25".

Farmington's lowest since 1893 is 43", in 1980-81.  (2nd lowest was 44" the winter before - nice double play.)

[eyewall]

BTV averages somewhere around 80 inches. We are at 14 or so on the season so far which is somewhere around 40% of normal. If the trend continues it would be a sub 40 inch winter. That of course is pure speculation. The last sub 40 was 2011-2012. The futility record I believe is 25 inches.

Set the bar low this winter.  I put myself in the 13-18" range.  I think I might be overshooting: 4" so far.

 

I screwed up and didn't allow you to see who's responded.  Not sure I can fix it.

[eekuasepinniW]

I think the lowest since I've been keeping track here has been 51"

2005-06?  That's my lowest here with 52.8", data back thru 98-99, and exactly 12" below the next worst.  Farmington had 51.8" that winter, 6th lowest in their 123-yr records.  I had 45.0" thru Jan 31 that winter, just 7.8" after.  (Avgs for that split:  44.6" and 44.9")

Yes. And the following winter wasn't much better, coming in with 64 inches.  Things certainly turned around for 2007/2008, though.

[wxeyeNH]

I'm at about 10".    It would be very hard not to hit 24" considering my average is in the 80's.  

[HoarfrostHubb]

My lowest since really paying attention was 44" in 2011/2012

I might come in under that but I still think I beat it

[NorEastermass128]

I'm thinking 30-40" IMBY.

Average is around 55"

[HIPPYVALLEY]

30" is my lowest in 8 winters here. 3.5" so far...

[Randy4Confluence]

Since Sept when the +++El Nino was forecasted, I've always fealt that BOS would be in for a 25" or so winter. I wrote this one off before it started. I am surprised though at the cold this month.

[ORH_wxman]

Least snowy winters on record for ORH:

 

1954-1955: 21.2"

1936-1937: 24.6"

1994-1995: 24.9"

1979-1980: 26.6"

1988-1989: 28.1"

+4 for the month so far?

[ice1972]

This season will amaze folks.......amazingly underwhelming.......watch

[ice1972]

So far this season sucks......bad.....worst ever

[Randy4Confluence]

+4 for the month so far?

Factoring in the upcoming cold as well, then this should put Jan @normal, which is a pleasant surprise in a strong El Nino.

1936-1937: 24.6"

1994-1995: 24.9"

1979-1980: 26.6"

1988-1989: 28.1"

Amazing that I don't see '01/'02 in that list. How in the world did you escape that disasta?

Doesn't even make the top 10. Had 44.4". There were actually 3 events of 6"+. Dec 8-9, the Tuck Rule game in January and March 20th.

[40/70 Benchmark]

60-70".

[Damage In Tolland]

Under 25

[Baroclinic Zone]

Why is snow total equated to crappy?

[CarverWX]

I have 2.1" so far. If I make it to 20" I will be very surprised.

[SouthCoastMA]

I have 2.1" so far. If I make it to 20" I will be very surprised.

[metagraphica]

7"-12" sounds about right for me down here.

[CarverWX]
