Northern queens, nyc

So.......you folks that live near a ski area.......how bad was the damage?

+TNH…don’t think I’ve heard of that tele before?

And out goes my power, off, on, off on off. Thank God for a standby generator

His thoughts..not mine, but I guess I could see it as a phase change to my +TNH

Here be ye olden control: MrGolfman, here ye go, the weeklies mean:

Wherever they rest their little moose heads

Got the roads clean of salt and all the snow out of my yard, and guess what? It's f-ing snowing here and everything is starting to get white...

That control @Holston_River_Rambler. Delta from high to low...9! The good thing is the mean is negative. I actually favor the control run - wild swings likely. AO looks pretty much the same. This has gotta be that SSW moving things around. This also fits QBO climatology which favors HL blocking. Probably all of that is connected in some way.

There's definitely no hype to some of these wind events this fall and early meteorological winter. As I said before I find in my general area that these events usually can't get there advertised winds to the ground and that hasn't been the case over the last few months. I've also had several extra truckloads of tree debris from all my clients this year from Union Deposit to Dillsburg. This morning is possibly one of the most gnarly wind event I can remember at my home since the historic low dew point derecho of 1989. Below is some information on the 1989 low dewpoint Derecho. One of the most interesting and rare weather event most of us got to experience in our lifetimes. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://repository.library.noaa.gov/view/noaa/6824/noaa_6824_DS1.pdf&ved=2ahUKEwiai_iXisuRAxVzFlkFHbeBElcQFnoECFoQAQ&usg=AOvVaw2L8H8kDzIM5k9RkZFJmF4U

Yeah, Mansfield depth dropped a healthy 10" but really just the air came out of the fluff. Couple inches of new snow up there after the changeover. Snowpack looked fine leaving at 5pm with a coating at 1,500ft. Dropped down to 4th deepest depth for the date since 1954, ha. Nice to have a thaw result in "falling" to a still top-5 snow depth.

Ha! A lot you know. Moose don’t have dens!

Ok…let’s go with it…that would be a very nice climatological time that’s for sure!

And BTW…where are you from? Looked at your profile…no location?

Truth.

Ok if that’s what you think…then how come Va, and DE, and NC, just the last few weeks got a great dumping of snow, multiple snow storms (especially for them). And then last year The FLA gulf coast, and LA gulf coast, and the Alabama gulf coast, and the MI gulf coast got buried with a blizzard last January? Shit happens bro…just the way it is. Bad F’n luck..it happens. We’re living it.

The hi res models warned about the wind threat today, sometimes it’s a false alarm. It’s pretty messy around my neighborhood and I know others not far away got it worse. We probably gusted 55-60 here.

334,000 people across the northeast without power right now. It peaked this afternoon around 400,000. winds were quite impressive from this storm lots of reports of 60 mph winds across Queens and Brooklyn, with winds in between 60 to 70 mph across Nassau and Suffolk. Definitely needed a high wind warning for Long Island and probably one for Queens too. Definitely over performed, the national weather service forecast as of last night were winds only up to 45 mph gusts today.

Crazy how you can time the cold early Dec with the warm late Dec the last 5 years or so. At least 90% of us made a nice snowstorm happen when it was cold this month. Hopefully we can get a window to do it again in Jan/Feb. A Nina with a good Dec snowstorm usually finds a way to do it again later in the winter and sometimes more than once.

The Grinch put on red this year.

I remember anytime you saw a colder than normal winter month in the 2010s, there would be snow accompanying it, and lots of it. Yet somehow since 2019, each colder than normal winter month has been a suppressive and/or cutter pattern everytime we can actually get a storm near the region. Seems like bad luck from a far, but when digging deeper, could be CC related. Probably is

Yes, Happy Anniversary to you both! MAYBE one year you'll (we'll) get a repeat weather-wise. Speaking of, on the weather front. After a small lull/decrease in the winds (down into the 15-25 range) the gusts have returned in last 2 hours into the 40+ range. Currently 33.1/17.8 with NW 17 gust 33 mph at 8:40 pm.

This is from bamwx fwiw. Maybe a change in the pacific. We shall see

Yep, falling apart
