First off as always I want to thanks some people for their donations to the site. I checked my PayPal account today to send my son some money and was surprised to see that 3 people made donations to the last two days. It really made my day and makes the work that goes into the site feel like it’s appreciated 
A Big Thanks to Janet S., Nancy S., and Paul B. I think that is just about how many people who have donated to the site this entire season. Thanks again to all 3 of you, they really do help and I truly appreciate the thought and you taking the time

It seems like it is still snowing in most of the Golden Snow Globe cities. Erie added to their totals again and have now had their 8th snowiest season on record and most likely they will continue to move up on that list. Syracuse added enough snow to at least keep pace with what Erie is getting which is a good thing for Syracuse, NY. Grand Rapids did take second place away for a little while earlier when I was peaking at the snow stats but Syracuse wasn’t reporting their overnight snow at the time and Grand Rapids was. Some of the National Weather Service stations report at different times.
Either way both Grand Rapids and Buffalo are hanging close to Syracuse right now for the second place spot on the snow Mountain. Now one of the cities need to put some pressure on Erie, PA 
Billings, Montana seems to have a decent enough lead over the cities below them to be sitting in the fifth place spot comfortably right now. Adam, who is from Billings posted a comment that they have received 28 inches in the last 7 days. Just think about it, in the last 7 days Billings had had almost what they should have for the whole season up until today which is 35 inches. No doubt some records are being set there.
I was listening to one of our local news stations here in Syracuse tonight, Channel 3, which is CNYCentral and meteorologist Mike Brookins had a pretty good line about how this winter has been for most places this season. He said something like “Don’t you kind of feel like we are all inside a snow globe and someone just keeps on shaking it”? I loved it and it does sum up this snow season doesn’t it?
Have a Super Week Everyone
I first heard this on “Weather World” from Penn State on Monday 3/3 – looks like it’s not just snow numbers setting records in Billings

“Billings, MT, set a new all-time March low with -21F this morning (Sunday 3/2), surpassing old record of -19F”
Gary, sorry but I edited the link. Not that it was a bad link or anything and I have no problem with it personally, as a matter of fact I saved it to my favorites. Hope you understand.
Glad you found another confirming source
Same thing also happened in Atlantic City, NJ on Monday when they dropped to +2F breaking the records for the day and month

And yet another monthly record low temp on March 6 in Rochester NY at -9F breaking the old March low of -7F in 1999

I’m honestly surprised that Syracuse hasn’t caught up to Erie yet. Your window for lake effect is quickly dwindling! Plus, even Lake Ontario is freezing over with these bitter temps. We here in Erie won’t breathe easy, though, because we know all too well that one massive nor’easter could shoot up the east coast and bury Syracuse.
