I like Tuesday Wednesday setup better of course. My only worries there are the WAA which looks like it will be present to our south and can scroo with totals if it nudges far another north into our mid levels, but it has the potential for our blockbuster, but to far out to get hyper yet.

Saturday night Sunday. My guess would be 3-5 for us. So many moving parts there, between the possible Norlun Trough and the south trend. I see the possibility for over 6 for us but I'd still place the odds against it.

Let me know how much you get from the current squall, it's done here.

Your thoughts?

Good news Doc and Jim, TWC lowered their 12-20 inches for Tuesday/Wednesday to 4-8. I'm much more comfortable with that at this point in time. KOD when they jump the gun.

Got down to 0 here last night, SNOW. Cloudy and cold now, no wind at all.

CP tries to avoid the board at times but that little snowman in his subconscious brain wakes him up at 1 or 2 AM saying "check the board, check the board...". No cure for that except a massive Miller A snowstorm.

Doc and Snowman. I got to -4.6 last night before the clouds moved in.

Someday Doc we have to check on our temperature discrepancies. Hard to believe 5 miles can make such a big difference although I suppose it's possible at times. Perhaps we should have our thermometers meet at Home Depot parking lot and have it out once and for all.

Thanks Taffy. Being 200+ miles west, I have a distinct advantage for this storm. However, I live in the Appalachian mountains, which I'm convinced in an old native american word for Significant Snow Inhibitor.

We have a 0% chance at that Al.

The all time record low average temperature for Central Park for the month of February is 19.9 degrees in 1934. So far in February it's 26.6. We're not beating that or even will be close.

That's also the same year they set their all time record low of -15.

There's a chance to get in the top 10 coldest Februarys of all time. That's 1923 at 26.2 so not that far off.

cp I mean temp. departures. obviously we are much warmer than the 1930's however we are 8* below normal so far this year compared to the normal ave. which is usually the previous 30 years. what was 1934's ave. compared to normal. prob not -8*. i'm thinking the greatest temp dep. for any month is closer to 6*. so I think we have a shot

I see what you're saying Al, but I'm not sure they keep such a record. Since 30 year averages are recalculated every 10 years that would be a moving target.

Something I was thinking about tonight. I'm almost positive that my total for this winter so far is only 25-30 inches at best. I only got two big storms, a 6.5 inch storm and a 9.5 inch storm. The rest have been 1-2 inch clippers here. So adding it all up I don't think I'm past 30 inches on the season. Strange because everyone else outside of my county is well above me (with the exception of south of me, but that will likely change soon). Guess I'm in a localized bad spot for storms this winter.
