As I was driving home tonight and cleaned off about 2 inches of snow I think it is safe to say that Syracuse FINALLY BROKE THE 100 INCHES FOR SNOW FALL!. More to come tomorrow.

On what date does Syr normally break 100"? I assume closer to the end of the winter. Is there an average date?
Uh oh, Buffalo pulls into 2nd!
Gary and Pam, right now the way Noaa does it is they add a certain amt each day to the totals. For Syracuse right now it's about an inch a day added and similar for Buffalo and Rochester.
Going by an inch from today to 100 inches on averge it would be somwhere's around the start of March. When I have a chance I'll see if I can find that stat on NOAA, I'm sure it's there somewhere.
ZR, Buffalo is on a little bit of a roll. You better get a snow dance going. Oh, and film it if you do ;)
