I was looking at snow stats all day trying to figure out if Syracuse got enough snow from the storm PAX to overtake Buffalo for the number one spot and to take over as King of the snow hill for now anyways. The National weather service just posted the new snow stats and Syracuse has knocked Buffalo from the top of the hill. This snow race isn’t even close to being over and right now Syracuse is only on top by about 4 snowflakes.
That 4 snowflakes was just enough though to slip past Buffalo who has been hanging in the top spot this season for quite awhile now. Buffalo has held the top spot since around January 8th which is a long time for any of the cities to stay on the top. January 7th was the last time that Syracuse was the King and at one point between then and now Buffalo had over a foot lead on Syracuse. No doubt Buffalo has impressed me this season along with all of the cities and that’s even including Albany. Did I just say that Albany has impressed me? You won’t hear that too often. Anyways like I mentioned, the snow race isn’t even close to being over and pretty much all of the cities are still in the hunt for the Golden Snowball Trophy 🙂
Here are what should be the totals from snow storm PAX if my math is right and as always keep in mind it normally isn’t 😉 This is taking the totals from the last two days and adding them together. Keep in mind that the storm stayed to the east of Rochester and Buffalo for the most part.
Albany – 14.4
Syracuse – 9.5
Binghamton – 6.1
Rochester – 2.1
Buffalo – 0.1
Have a Great Night All 🙂
Need? We don’t NEED more snow.
Does the trophy mean we win or we lose?
(more snow is NOT a good thing)
Derek, well WIN of course 🙂 Just another month to go and this winter season will be a distant memory..
Yeah, we need another one of those in Syracuse to take a good lead over Buffalo!
Could be a couple on the way Frank. We also need to catch up to Erie in the National Snow Contest at the Snowiest Big City in the US . The next week or two should be interesting….
