Nothing new to report other than so far we are all having a below average sissy kind of snow season.  Binghamton continues to lead the Golden Snowball contest and Albany continues to trail the rest of the pack.

All of the cities have less snow than normal for this time of the season but all of the cities other than Albany also have more snow than last season at this time so far.  So you ask me what does all of this mean?  I tell you I don’t have a clue what it all means 🙂  I do believe however that it is going to be a cold snowy 2013 – 2014 season or for most of it anyways.  Here is the difference between the normal snowfall for this time of the year and what we all have so far.

Albany – – Minus 0.9 inches

Binghamton – Minus 1.2 inches

Buffalo – Minus 3.3 inches

Rochester – Minus 1.0 inches of snow

Syracuse – Minus 3.3 inches

So in other words for you snow haters out there, enjoy the wimpy 2013 – 2014 snow season that we have had so far.  Father Winter is just taking it easy and planning out what he has in store for us down the snowy road 😉

Have an awesome day all 🙂

Below Average Snow But Above Last Seasons

I was just looking at the snow stats and all of the cities are below their normal snowfall averages for this time of year.  Could this be another season like the 2011 – 2012 snow season?  Could be but I don’t think it’s going to be.

I haven’t looked at last season but it seems to be colder more days than it was the last.  Plus right now with the exception of Albany all of our snow totals are over last season.  Not by a lot but we’re off to a slightly better start this season and it’s so early into the snow season.  Below is the difference from what the average snow totals should be for this time of year.

Albany is  -4 inches
Binghamton is -4.9
Buffalo is -10.2
Rochester is -10
Syracuse is -12.5

Let’s wait, hope and see if we can catch up to those stats some time in the near future 🙂  Have a Great weekend ev
