Chicago winters pale in comparison when the east gets going. When I grew up in NJ, it seemed like we’d get a blockbuster like this one every 2 years. Unfortunately now it’s more like every 5 years Id kill to be on long Island right now but the feast or famine climate of the east coast is a hard pass for me. Our (SE MI) winters are far superior to theirs. I've mentioned i have a snowlover friend on long Island. We talk several days a week for the past 10 years. He says our winters are like a good solid marriage/relationship and theres are like a hot one night stand. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fixation on the east coast is wild because it's so one sided. 80% of their winters are zzzz. In fact....they just had a historic snow drought so a historic storm is a perfect middle finger to a few on the main weather forum who acted like it would never snow in NYC again. Feast and famine climate will get the occasional feast. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mimillman Posted 9 hours ago Share Posted 9 hours ago If it wasn’t for a work trip I’d be on a plane to NY now instead of Seattle. One of my sisters lives in Brooklyn the other in Lyndhurst, NJ. Take your pick! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regarding marriage, ours is like a drunk/abusive one with an occasional dozen roses thrown in to make up for all of the beat downs. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back in the day (oh God im sounding so old).....the boards were more full than they are now. And there was always an odd fixation with the east coast. But it was ONLY when they would get a noreaster. Its one thing to be interested in a storm, but the fixation was lingering, even when a majority of the time they would not see winter weather. All around winter is superior here, the ceiling for storm potential superior there. Should be easy to understand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The nickels and dimes less so…but definitely more snow-covered days so there’s that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The nickels and dimes less so…but definitely more snow-covered days so there’s that. We do get big storms here as well. Its not all nickels and dimes. The 2010s saw the most 6"+ storms on record for Detroit, and several 10"+ storms too. Were definitely due for a good one (last 7"+ storm now 4 years ago) but a regression after the 2010s was anticipated. Snow climo always ebbs and flows but when you see something that really out you know it'll correct itself a bit. NYC and BOS also had a record snowy stretch in the 2000s/10s then a record drought the last decade or so (especially nyc). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
