I'd like to see what the storm track was with that and how it compares to this one. About 95% of the time these back end snows never work out -- and it's usually for geographical reasons -- NW winds on the backend downslope and dry everything out (wonderful for the spring and summer).

Correct! And thank you.

Absolutely wrap around. The front end of the storm was all rain.

suns out.. hopefully we can warm and storm later on

You know this is what I want too. I can tell you right now our May highs were a lot hotter between 1987-1991 lol. The TV Mets always talked about going right from winter to summer back then.

Smoke from Canada, and dust from the Sahara.

That was backend snow? It was so heavy I thought it was part of the main storm. There was no dry slot at all with that one.

And NYC has had over 5 million people since 1910. That's still bigger than the second biggest city in 2025, LA. So UHI was well baked in by then. I want to know if there is a way to find how highs and lows have changed over time separately instead of being averaged together.

Christmas Day 2001. 9” in 5 hours, all wrap around.

it's good that humans are able to adapt. One good thing is lower heating costs. In a rather ironic twist, climate change is taking money right out of the collective pockets of fossil fuel companies, which is GREAT to see.

I always assumed they were one and the same. Interesting.

People are getting used to Virginia winters. There is a reason Floridians act like 60 degrees is freezing. They got used to 90 and humid.

Half of the US seems to have Manitoba wild fire smoke, incredible ! https://www.star.nesdis.noaa.gov/GOES/conus_band.php?sat=G19&band=GEOCOLOR&length=24

I just remember how often we get the dreaded dry slot in the winter too, backend snows never seem to work out for us, although rather ironically we did get backend snows amounting to about 4-5 inches in March 2001.

Received 2.86" here mid-night to 8am. Still raining light to moderate as of 10am. Had a few low rumbles of thunder around 3am. Didn't see any lightning. Came down in torrents at times overnight. Winds became gusty 35-40 mph for a time just before and around daybreak. Just breezy now.

After three days of crap weather it is absolutely stunning right now out here on block island. But go figure it’s the day I’m leaving

0.95" here. I'm glad we're gonna have several dry days starting tomorrow. Looks like we have a shot at 90 Wednesday and Thursday.

1987 too which I don't remember but it looks like it had a nice big upper 90s heatwave in late May. I just remember our TV Mets back in those years used to say we are going right from winter to summer and they never do that anymore. I wonder if those months like May 2018 and May 2022 racked up the 90 degree days like 1987 and 1991 did in May at least.

1.5" overnight currently in a gap with the sun out and some stadium effect going on. Little swirly low level stuff and very dark clouds to the south

1991 was one of the warmest on record so of course it'll be the benchmark, but there were some cooler/wetter Mays in the 90s and the same in 2000-2010 / likewise for 2011-2020. May 2018 was around +4, May 2022 was around +3. I think youre picking select years and categorizing them into a larger period. I did enjoy 1991, 1993, 1988 spring summers, but we have had some warm / just as warm ones recently.

Well, like, people needed coats and hats so duh, it was brutal…

Can confirm. Lots of sun now, temps responding nicely. Good Saturday on the way

They're going to rebuild so the new place should be nicer. My favorite oyster spot.

Clearly the heaviest was east of me, and probably west of here, ONLY 2.51”, 9.28” for the month. Light rain falling, pressure still slowly dropping, down to 988.7, 56/54.
