February 2026 OBS & Discussion
donsutherland1 replied to Stormlover74's topic in New York City Metro
A weak system will pass south of New York City tonight into early tomorrow. The temperature will likely remain near or above freezing during most of the event. Assuming a snow-liquid ratio of about 6:1 to 7:1 based on past cases with < 0.20" precipitation and lows of 31°-33° with a storm total 0.10"-0.15" QPF, New York City and nearby suburbs will likely see a coating to 1" of snow. A realistic high-case figure for New York City is 1.5". A few places across central New Jersey and Long Island could pick up 1"-3" of snow. Most amounts will be 2" or less in those areas. Following the light snowfall, the clouds will break and the temperature will top out in the lower 40s in New York City. Tuesday will also see highs reach the middle 40s. A warm front will cross the region on Wednesday with some rain showers or a period of rain but its progress could slow or stall. Additional precipitation could arrive Friday or Saturday. Highs will likely reach the 40s through Saturday. The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was +0.3°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was -0.5°C for the week centered around February 4. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged -0.25°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged -0.52°C. La Niña conditions will likely continue into at least late winter. The SOI was +15.37 today. The preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) was +1.188 today. Based on sensitivity analysis applied to the latest guidance, there is an implied near 97% probability that New York City will have a cooler than normal February (1991-2020 normal). February will likely finish with a mean temperature near 31.4° (4.5° below normal). Supplemental Information: The projected mean would be 3.9° below the 1981-2010 normal monthly value. Overall, Winter 2025-2026 is on track for a seasonal mean temperature of 31.9°. That would be the lowest winter mean temperature since Winter 2014-2015 when the mean temperature was 31.7°. Winter 2025-2026 would only become the fourth winter of the 21st century with a mean temperature of 32.0° or below. -

I typically use the Koreas and the Yellow Sea in our parts.You wanna see deeper troughs into this part for us While also using East Asia doesnt never correlate 1:1,you have other teleconnections to look at in North America,but it still should give you a rough idea. While you see a trough here into Japan,this is more than likely be a trough in the East.I wouldnt be surprised to see this slow down in future runs.The GAAM looks fairly negative right now,this should be a slower pattern just because the earths rotation slows down sorat speaking,its opposite with a positive GAAM

The 23-25th is real . Analogs say so. They got the early Dec one, wrong about 12/22-24 one , mostly got snowcrete correct. Blows the models away .

15-20" in Mattapoisett, 5" at Pit2. Sounds about right.

midweek system looks interesting. probably not a big snowmaker for anyone but some fzra/mix and even thunderstorms possible for the mitten -
Modest AGW is a fact...however it is far from a threat or danger....the impact of AGW has been and will continue to be modest at most. That is the heart of the problem with climate alarmism!

And the stretch of not hitting 40°F continues. Going on now since January 22nd!

18z ICON looked like it was going to be really good for Friday

You're about 1.4 inches too high.

around .85" so far. Nice soaking rain.

This storm is not making its own cold air. When do the Kuchera maps come out? In fact its so warm I couldn't even catch a draft in my flue to start my wood stove.

All this talk about 1970 and snow or rain because of 2 degrees is quite amusing. 2 degrees cannot be used 50 years later to decide rain or snow. That is a fool-hearty venture. Many other parameters are involved. 50 years ago some winters produced a lot of snow, others did not. It will be that way 50 years into the future. Much of this winter has been plenty cold for snow but we have been locked into a long-term serious drought which has almost certainly been a factor. In 1956, Staunton received 8.6 inches of snow. The average annual for the past 40 years has been 24 inches. I did not cherry pick 1956. 1952 only received 6.2" of snow. In 1976, Staunton received 15.3 inches. In 1996 Staunton received 21.5" In 2016 Staunton received 24.5" Lets relax, be positive and look forward to 2-21 thru 2-23.
