If this is correct and it appears to be, this -IOD may be getting down to, if not exceeding -2. Would be record breaking and have a very substantial impact on the global forcing

Yep I remember flurries in middle November.

2016 sequel

Wouldn't that require storing the scions safely for months? Or am I missing something? I've done very little grafting - none recently - but I'd recommend cutting the scions in the spring.

Lakehurst (KNEL) 51 MPH right now at about 1031A. Coming north imo

You're looking at him. I'm at ~48" for the year with two full months to go.

There are also some people in yellow that are +10"-15" on the year. I understand why, I just find it funny. Sent from my SM-G970U1 using Tapatalk

It did happen though…just like the years it didn’t snow until January

Max G NJ coast via NJ climate sites. 52 MPH at Little Egg Harbor near ACY, so far. Will post CoCoRaHs totals tomorrow morning 9A. Flightaware misery map for NYC airports significant. STP's from OKX and PHI look reasonable.

My average first flakes date is 11/6 and average first measurable is 11/9...that said, the "Halloween" snowstorm in late October 2011 skews that average a bit.

Based on the obs, those amounts were from 8 AM. Rain continues.

0.64” so far. 59F.

Yeah this frontal system isn't going to commit to a coastal until very late, too late to really be a coastal for SNE and points down the EC. Appears there's a some commitment to doing so up along the Maine coast, ...even gets interesting up in eastern Quebec. But the overall belated behavior makes this more of an occluded and quick transition through inclement conditions sometime this evening. In fact, it may be dry by 6z and just west windy with falling temps tomorrow. Boring and pedestrian and utterly normal for the 2nd worst time of the year behind the god-forsaken April misery - altho, in fairness... Aprils seem to have been improving in recent decade but anecdotal. Lol. Couple aspects. This system lacked antecedent cold air. The preceding d(indexes) liked this period for a coastal - the fact that that it probably does commit and redevelop and deepen in time to clip D.E.M. with NE/rains ... is probably at least a gyp verification on that... But, if this had been colder, than the primary would not have wound up and occluded so fast, collocated with the trough so far west. We end up with a triple point some 1100 km away around Cape Cod. The actual 500 mb wave spacing moves the wind max SE of ISP ... in the past, with cold air, the primary can't penetrate and the new low happens sooner where there's less resistance along farther SE and the whole thing feeds-back on the east position. It's balancing q-g forcing against lowering viscosity/boundary layer resistance. Not enough of the latter and the low ends up purely under the q-g/omega and through NY she goes. The other aspect is the modeling attenuation. It's all but dependable that some percentage of total amplitude out beyond D6 or 7 ... disappeared when just about anything in consideration arrives inside 72 hours. All the models do this. I still don't definitively know exactly why that is (tho some ideas... ) but it's rather dependable. This system did appear to attenuate some as it came into shorter range.

I remember them closer to Thanksgiving, and it was usually mini snow squalls/flurries streaming in from the NW

Agreed. Thought I wouldn't kick a 1" - 3" car topper on December 5th out of bed.

Remember when we used to get snow flurries by early November? Miss those days!

Watching action news at 10:00 a.m. they have Philly at 0.42" and Pottstown at 0.52".

0.03. The rich get richer!

Harry Donahue (KYW News Radio) passed Wednesday as well. He's the guy who read off snow closing numbers at a thousand miles per minute. When I heard my number I would flip out and he would be my new best friend...

Yes it should be interesting. Should be better in terms of drought relief.

SPC did add us to marginal

Heard that here as well. Raining pretty hard now. Up to .75"

The one next week should be interesting Sent from my SM-G970U1 using Tapatalk
