chescowx Posted December 19, 2015 Report Share Posted December 19, 2015 Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all!! I reviewed the Chester County dataset from 1894 to Present and found only 10 Q4's that featured no snow. This year will be the 11th...and first such Q4 since 2006. So what does this mean for the weenies who love snow? To cut to the chase....not good at all! Despite some vendor forecasts still calling for above normal snow totals by April - this by the numbers appears highly unlikely as only 1 season 1965/66 was able to approach and in that case equal normal snowfall in the county of 35.0". The average seasonal snow falls of all seasons with no measurable snow by New Years day is 16.5". Details below: 1941/42 - 9.0" 1943/44 - 18.7" 1956/57 - 12.3" 1965/66 - 34.6" 1972/73 - 0" 1974/75 - 14.5" 1991/92 - 9.5" 1999/00 - 29.7" 2001/02 - 11.1" 2006/07 - 25.3" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitchg Posted December 19, 2015 Report Share Posted December 19, 2015 Strong ninos or close on that list 41-42, 65-66, 72-73, 91-92= 9, 34.6, 0, 9.5 average snow =13.3 . Still though 1/4 @ . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bananashadow Posted December 19, 2015 Report Share Posted December 19, 2015 Paul, Merry Christmas to you too! Given the climo history of super strong ninos not being snowy in January, I agree with you. 65-66 was a faster fading strong nino than this current one. I could still see places with lower climatic snowfall possibly getting above normal because it would take just one, but places that normally average more, they'd need another 2010 typish Feb.
