and now we have a winter storm warning for the next 36 hours. 6-10" expected.
uncle.
you have not shown the 134.0 inch 1995-96 record for binghamton (which is shown in table on top) in the top 10 list in this post. the top in the latest post shows 131.0 something..
Needs an update from yesterdays storm, over 6" here in ROC and BUF
Still a lot of cold in the forecast Grumpy. From about now until mid April is the toughest in my opinion because we get the teaser days, which I'll take of course and then back to the cold and snow.
Anon, I'll leave that to Stephen. I'm sure he'll catch it ;)
ZR, ya's broke a date record with 6.3 that went way back to 1965 and Buffalo did with 6.8 that went back to 1974 :) No doubt this has been a good season for sledding.
Anon, I just took a look around and NOAA, the national weather service shows two different numbers for the 95 - 96 season.
The stats that Stephen just posted for the top 10 and then they also show 134.0 in another section.
I'm not really sure what's going on with the 2 different numbers. I see it as well. Odd.
I used http://www.erh.noaa.gov/bgm/climate/bgm/bgm_annual_totals.shtml to find Binghamton's snowfall amounts for each season.
I'm try to see if there is a monthly breakdown of each season, like there is for Buffalo and Rochester at the Buffalo NWS office, as I have a suspicion as to what's happening.
Quit trying to be a forecaster and keep the totals up to date please !!
