Again with the heat, I just don't get it LOL.

If you take the bus from Woodbury Common in Central Valley or any of the Park and rides in Harriman or Monroe it gets you to the Port Authority 42nd and 8th in an hour during rush hour. I use to do it all the time. Until the 7.6 inches that is this winter so far, my worst winter up here has been 23.4, I've averaged 53 inches a year in the last 20 years I've been keeping records. Have had several seasons near or above 100, 93/94 95/96 and 2002/03 If you can look for elevation 500 feet and above, which is easy to do in Orange County as long as you avoid the towns right on the river. Don't buy south facing property if you want your front yard to retain snow pack for the maximum amount of days. All essentials for any snow weenie. You won't regret it.

Go back two years on this date and snow began that night which ended on the second with 17.4 inches in Central Park. I recorded 27.4 in Orange County, Highland Mills, during that late Jan 31- early morning Feb 3rd with maximum depth of 23.5. Oh to go back in time.
-
0.3 inches total even though it looks like more, the ruler never lies. 7.6 now for the season. In hindsight last year is looking better and better
-
Snow pretty much over, 0.3 inches total, a huge over performer. 7.6 inches now for the season, look out double digits we're coming for you.
-
Central Park had 17.4 from that storm which ties it for 16th on the all time list. You have to get over 18.1 inches now to break into the top ten in NYC. I received 27 from that up in Orange County. Great storm hard to believe only two years ago considering what we’re dealing with this year. .
-
Provided Central Park decides to measure. Something they are notoriously horrible at. During significant snowfalls they usually come in low, and under one inch events which they sometimes don’t even bother with. Because of the Significance of getting a 10th of an inch of snow to end the streak I would hope they would be more conscious Wednesday should anything fall.
-
To strong is nice if you want to take a chance on one large event happening that will most likely melt within a week, quicker in urban areas, if it does happen. Sandwich that between temperatures way above normal for the duration of winter. It’s personal choice but that’s far from my idea of winter. A srong El Niño you can have it, I’ll pass every time. .
-
1.2 inches Wednesday, 7.3 now for the season. I actually have an outside shot at seeing my first single digit snowfall for a full season and at this stage I’m starting not to care. .
-
Yet the average is 28.8 since they’ve been keeping records. You could just as easily say it was skewed way low during the abysmal 1971-2000 period. .
-
The 30 year average in NYC is now 29.8 inches which is right about where the 153 year average is, which is 28.8. .
-
Never has happened here and I hope not in my lifetime. I’ve never quite understood your passion for extreme heat. .
-
It depends on how far you go back. The 153 year average is 28.8 inches so the 29.8 for the 1991-2020 period is right there. We are in a 50 year period of extremes now. 1971-2000 was the lowest average on record. 2001-2020 one of the highest 20 year averages on record. One thing that is indisputable. The 30 year averages in temperature keep going up and for most of the I95 corridor that will eventually lead to real problems getting consistent and sustainable snow.
-
What is your elevation there and what town? .
-
Pretty much over. 1.3 inches on snowboard, closer to 2 on grass and 0 on pavement. 1.3 inches goes into the books. Second biggest "storm" of the season, and boosts the seasonal total to 6.1
-
32.0 Moderate snow 0.7inches on colder surfaces. .
-
31.8° changed to light snow in the last half hour. The tease, torture, harassment, or whatever you want to label it, that is this non-Winter, continues.
-
31.8° and rain/freezing rain
-
31.8° and rain/freezing rain. Pretty much sums up what so far has been an extended fall.
-
Woodbury Common is 3-4 miles away, walmart, target, BJ's etc all within 3-4 miles no problem there. The parks, town pool, and lake are outstanding for kids for summer. Plenty of resturants too. Both school systems, Monroe and Cornwall top notch.
-
A lot has changed. Now we're consistently getting 30's and rain, instead of 40's, which makes this season, formally known as Winter, even more frustrating.Expecting more of the same this Sunday and Wednesday.
-
As a snow nut I'm going to make your life easy. Move to Highland Mills in Eastern Orange County. You will be in the Cornwall or Monroe school district, you're far enough east to catch the brunt of most major NorEasters and more importantly the elevation of most areas of the town are 550 to 900 feet. Try to avoid the river towns along the Hudson where the elevation is a paltry 150-250 feet, you can get burned in these towns on borderline events. I'm averaging 53 inches per year here, and more importantly the snow sticks around most winters, present winter not included.
-
When does it have to be returned?
-
A little disappointed here in Highland Mills, 2.6 inches will do it, we usually do a little better in these type setups.
-
43°-44° through most of the precip last night. It would be interesting to see what this setup in Mid to Late November could be.
