Hopefully everyone had a fantastic Christmas! It’s time to get back to work on the snow stats after a tiring but fun family break ; ) Keep an eye on the weather on Tuesday because it will be nasty driving in a lot of places.
OK, I hinted in a reply or two that I was curious if the Snow God has been awaken from his/her hibernation this season and it appears that that NYCO, the keeper of the Snow God completely forgot about him/her *cough* *cough*
Quote from Ellen (NYCO)
“Oh my God! Just this morning I realized… I FORGOT TO PUT OUT THE SNOW GOD this year.
I totally forgot. How could this have happened.
He is displeased with us in Syracuse now! Very displeased!!!”
That could explain the wimpy winter we’ve been having here in the Syracuse area and in CNY. The snow has been picking up a bit the last few days and it’s looking to look more like winter this week than it has been looking so I can only assume the Snow God is all shined up and ready to let it rip. NYCO?. Lets just hope that the Snow God isn’t too ticked off and decides to bury us the next few months. Hmmmm, or should we hope he/she is ticked 🙂
It’s Buffalo by 1 snowflake over Rochester at the last look at the snow stats and that may be bouncing back and forth this week. Buffalo went from third place in the New York snow race to first and Binghamton dropped down to third place. I’m really not liking the way the top 3 seem to be separating themselves from the bottom 2 at this point but there is still a lot of snowfall to come. Look for more frequent updates from here on.
As for the national snow contest I really don’t have a clue. Well maybe a clue but I haven’t updated those stats in several days and there has been a lot of snow falling in some of the Northern US cities so that should be interesting once I update those stats a little later on.
Have a Great Tuesday and Drive Carefully!
