    Here in Astoria the streets are clear, the sidewalks are mostly just wet, few spots of snow where it piled up more because it fell off of trees. Good snowball making snow. Packs real well. I am guessing 10 or 11:1 ratios. Temps hovered around 30 degrees all night, so we didn't get that real light fluffy snow you might get with temps in the 20's.

    Bring those totals down near the coast, NYC closer to an 8:1 ratio given the mixing issues, and borderline temps IMHO.

    The link to the full study that Don posted above is very interesting, once you get past some of the high level math that they discuss in it.

    I think this is the best place to post this article, and hear what everyone thinks about it. https://www.cnn.com/2024/02/09/climate/atlantic-circulation-collapse-weather-climate/index.html

    Been snowing lightly in Astoria since this AM. Not much is getting on the sidewalks and roads due to the rate of snowfall, plus all the salt that has been spread around. Grassy areas, and areas that had snow piled from the storm earlier this week are seeing accumulation, but not very much. The sun is even weakly showing thru the clouds at times.

    The trend this winter has been no snow for NYC.
  7. Wannabehippie
    I am going with the trend is your friend. The trend has been no snow for NYC and points east. I say no snow for the Tuesday event, other than maybe a coating, for NYC.
  8. Wannabehippie
    I need Tuesday event to be delayed, or be a minor event so I can get back in to LGA from Florida.
  9. Wannabehippie
    That is my thought as well. Get to 2 full years of no snow, then we can get some snow.
  10. Wannabehippie
    Temps above freezing throughout the storm on latest NAM12k 0z run, starting at 15z Saturday. It won't let me post the image, as it is "too big".
  11. Wannabehippie
    Maybe aloft as snow, but the soundings at the mid, low level are too warm IMHO.
  12. Wannabehippie
    Might be too late by then to get any real accumulation, unless it can come down real hard and fast in 2-3 hours.
  13. Wannabehippie
    Doesn't that area flood even in fairly light rains?

    I buy the Old Farmer's Almanac yearly. Mainly for the articles on gardening, etc. Some really interesting stuff in there. I treat the weather prediction part as entertainment. Fun to see how wrong they are, then follow up the following year when they claim an "80% accuracy".

    At 53 I am no kid.
