06z euro brings significant rain to the region (more to come) starting sunday afternoon into Monday -- from that tropical disturbance in the gulf. Euro AI is similar. GFS and CMC are less organized.

You what's funny and sad at the same time? I had 46.3" that winter...since 2017-2018 I have had TWO seasons, including last year, that were better than that. Forgive me taking it and this is how things evolve.

Harrisburg in December 92 had 6 inches..strong winds off the warm Atlantic in mid December didn't help the coast. Actually it did change to snow at the end and Long Island which got an inch

February 2027

October 6 1997: Hail, wind, and an F0 tornado are reported in the early morning hours in several counties in west central Minnesota. Near Canby in Yellow Medicine County, hail combined with wind gusts nearing 60 mph damage the roof of a bus garage, elementary school windows and a school vehicle. Renville, McLeod, Carver, Scott, and Dakota counties also receive hail and strong winds. Widespread pea to marble size hail accumulates to three inches deep in several areas, and crops are severely damaged over a large part of Renville county. Many power lines and trees are blown down. Southeast of Bird Island, a barn collapses and kills over 100 pigs. Near Brownton in McLeod County, hail accumulates to a depth of 3 inches with one foot drifts. A brief tornado touches down near Stewart in McLeod County, damaging a few trees. 1987: Snow falls over the Arrowhead region. For Tuesday, October 6, 2026 1836 - A second early season snowstorm produced eleven inches at Wilkes Barre PA and 26 inches at Auburn NY. All the mountains in the northeastern U.S. were whitened with snow. (David Ludlum) 1984 - The temperature at Honolulu, Hawaii, reached 94 degrees to establish an all-time record at that location. (The Weather Channel) 1985 - A tropical wave, later to become Tropical Storm Isabel, struck Puerto Rico. As much as 24 inches of rain fell in 24 hours, and the severe flooding and numerous landslides resulting from the rain claimed about 180 lives. (Storm Data) 1987 - The western U.S. continued to sizzle. Afternoon highs of 85 degrees at Astoria OR, 101 degrees at Tucson AZ, and 102 degrees at Sacramento CA, equalled October records. It marked the fourth time in the month that Sacramento tied their record for October. (The National Weather Summary) 1988 - Cool Canadian air prevailed across the central and eastern U.S. Toledo OH reported a record low of 27 degrees. Limestone ME received an inch of snow. Warm weather continued in the western U.S. Boise ID reported a record high of 87 degrees. (The National Weather Summary) 1989 - Temperatures soared into the 90s across southern Texas. Afternoon highs of 93 degrees at Houston, and 96 degrees at Austin and Corpus Christi, were records for the date. Beeville was the hot spot in the nation with an afternoon high of 101 degrees.

I guess your hyping a 97-98 winter, which makes sense with the enso.An active Southern jet with little cold air to tap. Inland sections away from the coast did do ok that winter, but probably the worst winter for the coast. It took Spring to get a snowfall, 5 inches in March.Nothing is granted to stone though.

I believe Apple's bringing a flip option back

You'll be 27

I'm guessing this storm?

Okay, your definition of CNE is off and presumably biased by your southern perspective. CNE is from like route 2 northward....we essentially agree then. I knew there must have been something lost in translation-

Not a flip phone but close enough

December 1992 was a big rainstorm in Southern New England shoreline areas and NYC Metro. I guess our definitions of the geographic regions are a little different. To me anything north of the Hartford to Providence line is Central New England. That event came into the Delmarva. So winter wavelengths with retrograding system right into NYC would probably be mostly rain in the same regions which got rain in December 1992. Plus during the 1997-1998 winter the ridge axis was further north along with the 540 thickness line than 92-93 or the 91-92 winter. The January 1992 nor’easter which got pulled in from the east was also a big rainstorm for the NYC Metro area.

Might drop below 40 tonight for parts of LI if wind goes calm.

Low of 40 with wind last night. Tonight should be 38-39 at worst

Time to upgrade from the flip phone

Up in the Adirondacks right now. Closing our summer homes for the winter this week on Twitchell lake about 30 minutes from Old Forge. Down to 31 this morning.

No. Light/moderate snow shower on Whiteface summit area only. No accum. .

41 on my station this morning

Chris, you're wrong. December 1992 did exactly what I am saying...it buried most of SNE. I was in a suburb N of Boston and had 20"....Boston had like 9", as did much of N RI. The southern third of the region would have had issues, sure. I said MUCH of SNE...NOT ALL. You are saying "antecedent warmth"....which inherently implies a dearth of +PP to the north. If there is a high in place, it will take time to dislodge that cold a stone's throw from the shore.

Bottomed out at 45 here in NW Philly, coldest low since May 8 IMBY. That will definitely start triggering plants and trees to start doing stuff. Got up to 70 as a high yesterday after a 51 low and it's currently 54 with dp 43. My tropicals don't like consistent night temps below the mid-50s so I usually start bringing them in to overwinter Columbus Day weekend, which is coming up. Looking forward to the Sixers this year, apparently the only Philly team winning (without stressing us out) and even just did so against last year's champs without our big 3. C

Hello, everyone. The low temperature reached 32°F at Zelienople Municipal Airport.

I’d have to disagree with that statement for my area…have had at least a few mornings in the upper 40’s the last week plus. Today being the coolest so far, (until tomorrow of course), on the truck temp at 8:15, which was 45. This past Saturday night was very cool and autumn like as well.

During the winter the antecedent warmth with a seasonally stronger STJ than the fall would prevent much snow from getting south of Central and Northern New England with a loop in from the East. We saw tracks like this but even further south during the January 1992 Nor’easter which got pulled in from the east and also. Plus December 1992 came in closer to the Delmarva and you had to be pretty far north to cash in on that one.

Now, if you want to argue that there won't be any cold, that is a different issue....but you time that track with a polar high, and there would be a major snowfall across much of Mass/CT/RI. Is the capture that far south and tug back to NJ ideal? No, but I'm not claiming it would have been 2/6/1978...nonetheless, it would have been a major winter storm.
