CONGRATS Rochester and Well Deserved! Rochester is the winner of the 2019-2020 Golden Snowball award. The last time Rochester won it was back during the 2011-2012 snow season. Buffalo was the defending champ this season.
Buffalo and Binghamton opened up the 2019-2020 snow season with 0.6 inches around November 7th. Syracuse took the lead around Nov. 8th with a total of 2.2 inches.
Rochester took over the lead on Nov. 11th having 3.2 inches on the season. On Nov. 12th all of the cities had snow now and Buffalo took the lead with a new total of 12.4 inches. Rochester moved into the lead again on Nov. 13th with 17.3 inches.
We went into December with Rochester having the lead over Buffalo by about half a foot of snow. Around Dec. 3rd Albany took the lead. Really, but it didn’t last long π Rochester took the lead back around Dec. 5th and never looked back. It looked like the snow contest was off to a good start and that it was going to be a fun snow season ahead, and it was IMO π
Going into January 2020 it was:
Rochester
Albany
Syracuse
Buffalo
Binghamton
On around Dec. 6th or 7th, Syracuse moved into second place and Albany was in their normal spot, last place π
Rochester went into February leading second-place Syracuse by about 15 inches of snow. The closest Syracuse could get to Rochester the rest of the snow season was a little over 3 inches behind. Rochester held strong throughout the snow season and was the king of the snow hill for most of it. Barring any unforeseen, crazy weather, Rochester is and deserves to be the King of the Golden Snowball Snow Mountain. Congrats Rochester on unofficially wing the snow contest for the 2019-2020 snow season. Well deserved and it turns official on July 1st when the next season starts π π π
Have a Fun, Safe Summer All!
