Old man winter may have gotten a late start but he has more than made up for it with a heavy blast of snow that has dropped between 6-8 inches of the white stuff (more in some spots) overnight with more on the way. The National Weather Service has extended the winter storm warning until 1pm for Oneida County and 7pm in Herkimer County. Here is the latest forecast.

Winter Off To A Slow Start

Technically it's not quite winter yet. The winter solstice isn't until December 22 but here in upstate New York we tend to think of winter beginning much sooner, sometimes even in November. According to the National Weather Service the normal snowfall total for December in the Mohawk Valley is around 32 inches but so far--nearly halfway through the month-- we have officially recorded less than one in the Utica area. As for the most and least December snowfall totals check out the numbers from NOAA.

Whatever Happened To Spring?

I thought it was just me until I checked with the Weather Underground for the statistics. We HAVE had a disappointing spring. So far we have had measurable precipitation on 13 of the 23 days of April with your usual April showers laced with more than a few wet snowflakes.
