Winter '11 / '12 - Season-total Snowfall Forecast Contest - Station Summary

Forecast station summary ...



Green shading ==> best 1/3 in category.
Red shading ==> worst 1/3 in category.

SBY carries 2". (UPDATED 04-SEP-12:  VantagePoint reports season-total of 4.2".  No change in standings.)  Maybe there was more.  Hard to know since AKQ no longer reports snowfall data for this station.


Pitiful excuse for a winter this season.
Snowfall totals barely got off the mat at most locations.

Anomalously strong polar vortex persisted well into meteorological winter's second month despite -QBO...further evidenced by the +AO.  NAO remained positive D-J-F save for a few brief excursions below zero.

Up next...forecaster summary and FINAL standings.
