Spoiled Is that calendar day rather than storm total? Must be, as unlike what the chart shows, Boston's had several >25" (one such being the 1969 "100-hour" storm, which the chart shows as <15".) Using the calendar day would certainly cut down on the 12"-ers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I laugh when people expect a 12 incher every year now. Oh absolutely 12" events aren't supposed to happen every year down here on the coastal plain nor should they be expected. It's certainly been an anomaly the last 18 years for the Northeast to have so many at least double digit events, that's why I pointed it out in my original post. We have been extremely lucky the last 2 decades so I wouldn't be surprised if at some point we get 4 or 5 straight winters without a big event. Regression is certainly due around here at some point. So glad I didn't grow up/remember the 80's, especially after the very cold and snowy late 70's but I'm a realist and by no means am I expecting every winter to be like 2014-2015 with at least one 12" event the rest of my life. We were close this year as it was a very 80's-like winter from what you guys were saying with it being cold and dry then warm and wet. We just lucked out 2 weeks ago and that wasn't even everyone in SNE who cashed in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
