Rochester’s Snowflakes are Adding Up

It’s been kind of quiet the last few days but Rochester is slowly inching it’s way back toward the top. They’ve taken 4 inches off of Syracuse’s lead over them to be only 9 inches away from the lead and right now are less than a couple of inches away from reclaiming 2nd place in the Golden Snowball contest.

There is still a lot of Winter left and the race is a whole lot closer than it was at this time last season. In other words the golden snowball trophy is up for grabs for all of the GSB cities right now. Even Binghamton is staying close enough to the top to have a shot at the trophy.

I’m in the process of gathering the snow stats for the national contest and they will be posted later today. It should be interesting to see how the North East ends up this round.

The Golden Snowball Winter Prediction

It just dawned on me that I haven’t done a winter forecast prediction yet here at goldensnowball.com . Maybe I’ll get it up before the snow season is over. I suppose I could wait another couple months and really nail it down good huh? I’ll do the research and try and put it up later tonight 🙂 Obviously with most of the cities above normal right now you may think I will go that way. Could be 😉

Also, I just updated the national snow stats. You can check them out here. A little bit of shifting around in the top 10 snowiest cities but not a whole lot. All of the GSB cities survived the top 10 but it’s definitely getting pretty close in that race also.

Forgetful Was My Middle Name Yesterday

OK! Nothing to do about snow right now but I was just thinking about how much was on my work plate yesterday. My mind was going in a zillion directions and then I got an email from my sister, older sister, way older sister that had this video. The reason I’m making the point of wayyyyyyyyyy older sister is because she put me about 3 years ahead of the age I really am on my last birthday which was just before the holidays. In other words Pay Back is a :0)

Anyways, yesterday I would go to do this and end up doing something else and forgetting what I was suppose to do in the first place. The video pretty much sums it up. Can anyone else relate to it???

Defending Snow Champ Syracuse Sleds into The Lead

Da Cuse is in the Igloo, err house. Syracuse has finally for the first time this season taken the lead in the Golden Snowball contest. You know it’s a good snow race when Syracuse was near the bottom most of the season and at the bottom at one point. Can they hold on to the top spot til the finish. Nah! Not the way the season has been going so far. I expect several more lead changes 🙂

Buffalo isn’t even close to throwing in the shovel yet and I don’t think Rochester is either. Rochester was the big surprise with the weekend snowfall only posting about 6 1/2 inches but I’m sure they will be winning several rounds this season to keep it close. Even our neighbors to the South, Binghamton is still holding tough and post some snow just about every day now. I’m going to keep saying it! It’s going to be a great snow race for the 2009 – 2010 season.

GO CUSE!!!!
