dang.... 55.4 IMBY today

What do you guys think about this. I say even if we only get a few more 1-3" or 2-4" events this season. I would say this is a success in terms of snowfall? First time in a long time I feel we had a warning level event verify and then a nice cold spell on top of that. Just my two cents. I would give this winter a B+ if we can score a few more WAA events (or what I mentioned above)

I would give it a B+ if we don’t see one more flake of snow the entire winter, and I’d be inclined to give it an A if we get at least the 4.3” needed for this to officially be an above average snowfall season.

This is where I am too. But I think we’re cooked for the season. We will see.

I know its highly subjective, but I'd give it an A. We had a little taste of everything, advisories, warnings, thundersnow, snow squalls, top 5 coldest stretch.  If we manage to hit average snow Id say A+

I agree that we’re fairly cooked, but average snowfall from now until whenever snow is no longer possible is 15.9”. So we don’t even need 30% of that to get to normal.

Huh its only Feb 10. That's a crazy thing to say. This weekend threat could still give us some minor accumulation before the warm up. Then who knows about March and April.

I wish you were my teacher in school... I look at it month by month. I give Dec A+, January A+, Feb and March TBD. If this were it for the year, Id give C+ or B-.

i'm with you. We could torch into spring and i'd be a happy man. Feel like we got our fix this winter with pretty consistent cold and frequent shots from early dec-early feb. Thats solid in my book

You can’t weight March as heavily as you do DJF, imo. The blizzard of ‘93 has set an unrealistic expectation of March in the mind of any yinzer old enough to remember it.
