I think depth days is a great statistic, and I'm surprised that it is catching on slowly outside of the wxobs-sne mail list. I never expected that the NWS would embrace it quickly, but I had hoped that TV meteorologists would start using it, in monthly summaries, if nothing else. It would be nice if ski areas would use it, but they may not wish to if they are not likely to be #1 consistantly. (And if only one area reports depth days, it would not be a good comparative statistic.) I see that UVM has has graphs of snow depths at Stowe through many seasons.
Well, in February I thought I'd save some quotes here. However, I started too late, and just have this one. Maybe I can dig up a Jim Corbin "Saving $$$$$$!" post.
From: "Brian Monahan, Clarksboro, NJ" Date: Wed, 25 Feb 1998 22:47:04 -0500By the way... with just three days remaining in meteorological winter, it's becoming clear that this winter will certainly go down into the books as one of the least "wintry" ever... ZERO SNOW DEPTH DAYS since December 1st, and for that matter, in one year... That's unbelievable for a spot this far in the northeastern United States.. For the season... 0.4 INCHES OF SNOWFALL since December 1st... 13.8" behind last year's final tally... Also, lowest temp this season was just a mere 18F, coming back on the 1st of the month... also the date of the coolest high; 32F... So clearly a winter to remember here, not for snow like 95-96, but for the lack thereof... Also, Philadelphia with just 0.7" of snowfall is just 72 hours away from only the 2nd season there below 1" in 124 years of continuous records (last occurence being the dreaded TRACE year of 72-73)... Also, since 1874, only 5 seasons have featured snowfall below 6", and barring a miracle, #6 is certainly on the way...
