It would be pretty funny if the latest euro verified with all the winter is over talk

I wonder if anyone is taking the Euro and Canadian seriously for this weekend - Euro has a MECS - nobody even discussing it here

hurts, doesn't it?

Not really. If it has record-breaking potential, I'm all for it. Just amused by all the folks who committed to no snowfall the rest of the month trying to save face by loudly carrying on about how quickly it'll melt. I don't think anyone has any delusions about whatever comes of this weekend's threat being the beginning of a months-long permafrost.

Damn, and I was going to be a big raise at work if we can keep whatever snowfalls through next week...

It's the same people over and over again mentioning winter is over or it's gonna melt in a couple days. I'm just looking forward to CIK62 and his prediction of above normal temps in march of 2021

weatherguy12345: the ensembles show a strong ridge in the east and it's mid february, we might not have much winter left

this forum: Angry-Woman-GIF.gif

I don't think we will either. A while back I said it would take a remarkable turnaround for me to get to average snowfall and people criticized me for it. Well, I'm still waiting.....mid Feb is here and today I walked outside without a coat for an hour at lunch and no hat...and I'm bald. So this weekend will hopefully deliver because banking on March snow in my neck of the woods is dicey. And for the record, I'm a closet snow weenie....

Dulles average was always several inches less than NYC.  There was an MA poster years ago who liked to make that comparison; his numbers were something like 21 at IAD and 22 at NYC.  He cherry picked his years.

Dulles is not in WDC it is in NW Virginia, 32 miles WNW of WDC at a higher elevation.

To use Dulles snow totals to represent WDC averages is like using the averages in NW New Jersey to represent NYC.

I wasn't disagreeing.  just pointing out that it still averages less snowfall than Central Park.

Sorry if I'm barging in, but while Dulles is certainly not the average for DC, Reagan really isn't either. They always have lower totals than surrounding areas, even to areas all around them. Pretty sure they measured the lowest in most of the region during the Blizzard of 2016, measuring 17.8" while multiple areas in DC proper had near 2 feet. IMO the official measurements should be at the White House. They seem to represent DC as a whole more.

That area has been in a rut the last few years after the epic 09/10 season. In fact they may have had more snow that one season then they have had since.

We actually had quite the nice stretch from 13/14 through 15/16. Pretty sure it was the snowiest 3 year stretch on record for Dulles. With a HECS to boot.
 

13/14: 52.8

14/15: 36.9

15/16: 34.3

Compared to DCA:

13/14: 32.0

14/15: 18.3

15/16: 22.2

It's just that the DC heat island really makes those totals low, when in reality it was quite the epic 3 year stretch.
