    My anecdotal evidence is that NYC has had very warm Septembers in the last 10 years. Can anyone post a link or website where I can find that information?

    2.5 inches of snow at 10:30 with moderate to occasionally heavy snow falling in Hardyston, Sussex County, NJ. Temperature up one degree to 22 in the last hour. I'm thinking we might get 4-6 inches before the changeover to sleet and then rain

    Are they really going to retire the NAM after this year? It is tthe best model inside 48 hours.

    75% sleet now

    In NWNJ Sussex there was a failure on a main transmission line in Vernon (whatever that means) that lead to another failure further down the line. Because of the snowpack and ice it made it hard to correct the problem. Mountain Creek Ski resort and most of Vernon was without power since late this morn ing. I lost power around 5:40 but it was restored around 20 minutes ago. I don't think the power loss was related to the current storm. Happy to have my power back on.

    This morning my car was covered in ice and the temperature was 28 degrees. By 1PM the temperature had risen to 30 and the ice had melted from my car and there was also melting snow/ice from my roof which has a western exposure. The temperature is still 30 but by car is now covered in ice again. Despite the low cloud deck the mid-February sun was causing some melting. I think the roads will get icy soon.

    I am supposed to drive from Sussex County to NYC later this morning. Straight down route 23 to route 80. I am having second thoughts even though I think the main roads would be treated and safe.

    I live about 30 minutes from Milford and visit there often especially in the summer/fall. One of my good friends owned houses in both Gold Key Lake and Hemlock Farms so I spent many Saturdays in Pike County. I also love eating on Lake Wallenpaupack and i think the town of Honesdale in Wayne County could be an up and coming town. When I was there in late 2017 I noticed the downtown area had a bunch of new businesses. I think Milford, Hawley and Honesdale have gotten an influx of people from NYC since the start of the Pandemic and real estate prices have been surging in the area. I live a community called Crystal Springs in Hardyston, NJ and I think the whole area is stunningly beautiful. I work in Queens , NY so I still keep an apartment there but I find I spend about 60% of my time in NW NJ now since I can work remotely several days a week.

    James, that is a great picture. Is that the Hideout community? I haven't been active in this forum this year but didn't you used to live by Route 739 and Log Tavern Road in Dingman's Township?

    The National Park Service has just closed the Delaware River because of the anticipated high water levels. I would hope nobody was thinking about venturing out on the river in a small boat or kayak. A number of people die on the river every year... https://www.njherald.com/story/news/2020/12/24/national-park-service-closes-delaware-river-in-water-gap-park/4041472001/

    Wild weather here in north Bayside, Queens near the Throggs Neck Bridge. Heavy snow with heavy sleet and it looks like some plain rain is mixing in too!

    There was some graupel mixed in with the snow in Hardyston, NJ. I never saw a snow squall like this in April or May and it would have been impressive even for January

    Incredible snow squall just blew through here. It would have been impressive in January but it is May!
  14. Northwest NJ
    I saw that April was 2.6 degrees below normal in NYC was that a top 10 coldest April or not even close? It was one of the coldest months of April that I could remember.

    Julian, I agree small businesses are getting killed and they need to start letting them open even with some restrictions so they don't suffer irreparable harm. I have been a weekender in Sussex county NJ for 22 years but don't post too often since I seem to be working in the city during some events. I am only about 6-7 miles from Animal but I am only at 625 feet of elevation so I am only getting mix of rain and white rain. I first found my way to the great NW in 1997-98 when my job inherited property in the southern Berkshires and I was in charge of selling the property. I used to drive through Millbrook frequently and I believe there was a diner on route 44 where i would stop. I have always wanted to go pass there again and head up to the Great Barrington MA/Litchfielsd County area of CT and I hope to do so this summer. How long have you been in Millbrook and has the area changed much over the years?
