42.0 on  the nose

Yikes, I'm barely above them. I was thinking on how I was just NW of that good band two days before Christmas when SNYWX cashed in, the end of January event I was in between bands, there was this line of 'only' 13-14" than ran up the middle of Orange County into Ulster and then this week I was NW of the good band of snow. Still a solid winter but I keep just missing the bigger snow totals.

wow what a gradient from 5.5 to 15.3, checks out but thats wild 

Orange County was literally split in half from west to east with totals. Was down in the east side of warwick last night and they have about 5x the amount I have and it’s only about 10 miles to my SE

That event right before Christmas surprised me. Didn’t expect those amounts. With the exception of yesterdays event it’s been a season of overachievers

Im at 56” for the season. Didnt think id see that ever again to be honest lol

Where do you get the Montgomery airport snowfalls totals from? I thought like Poughkeepsie, which stopped measuring a few decades ago for good reason, that Montgomery doesn't measure snow.

Let me know if you have the link, thanks.

@CPcantmeasuresnowI'm looking around a bit now, it might have been part of the NWS NOWdata under Montgomery but its not there now. I remember when I came across it I was surprised and again took it with a grain of salt. I must have found it a few years ago again because I just came across this little spreadsheet I did 10 years ago that shows the 30 year average (KMGJ)which was higher than it is now, 43.3" then and 42.2" now. The 10 year averages were my own measurments. 

I had to have got it from here:https://www.weather.gov/wrh/Climate?wfo=okx but like I said earlier, its gone now. You can still see snow for Port Jervis and West Point though if interested.

Thanks, I have looked at these before. Other than the main reporting stations I've always found them unreliable which you alluded to before. The West Point data, which would be closest to me, has so many missing months in various years it makes it worthless to to come up with a meaningful seasonal average.

Another overperformer going on. Uggh

[Hitman]

Yup looks like another 1-2” here.

What town?

[BxEngine]

Got an inch in about 1/2 hr at work, and slightly under 2” at home.

.6 total

[Juliancolton]

2.0" here, solid little clipper

[gravitylover]

3" on the garbage can top but 4" on the driveway. Usually the elevated surfaces are higher but it's pretty warm so the area is surrounded by warm air and the ground is frozen. 

One of our cars ended up parked right where the biggest drifts formed on Monday morning. There's a painfully dense 3-4 feet piled on it that I'm struggling to get off. Ya think if I accelerate and brake really hard by the end of the driveway it'll slide off? Wind that little turbo up and put all the trust in the brakes 50 feet later... What could go wrong?

Yeah, that data has more holes in it than @BxEngines socks but I digress. Here is a screenshot from one of my spreadsheets that shows my running averages at the top and what I did find for KMGJ listed in the box with the month, if interested. Some of the numbers will be slightly off because winter isn't over yet but you'll get the idea.

.5 here.

What is your YTD over there?

Ans I'd curious to know YTD for both the driveway and the garbage cans 

[gravitylover]

^ lol

I guess it's not a surprise that they're different but 30% is a pretty big difference so I figured it was worth mentioning. 

I'm too stupid to remember to write things down so I'm not sure. I looked back through our threads at my posts the other day and came up with about 50 and didn't go back further. I'm sure I missed one or two small ones and only went to like mid December so...

0.6” here 

[IrishRob17]

Spoke to someone who lives in Maybrook, about 4 miles or so to my ENE...10.5" from the weekend LOL

[gravitylover]

And now it's beautiful. Bright blue sky, blinding almost, it's up to 42° and the streets are dry, narrower than they should be but what's cleared is dry. It's pretty amazing how quickly this stuff is compacting too.

The gradient is real! It’s very noticeable once you cross through Chester. I think washingtonville had reports of 12-13”

Better outcome here, but also a 12" gradient between MBY and ISP which is less than 10 miles away.
