  1. How is 17.5 inches close to a seasonal average of 29.8? Granted that's provided NYC doesn't see any snow in March or April but it doesn't look good for them right now. Also Central Park under measured almost every event this winter. What actually fell in Central Park is around 21 inches, give or take an inch
  2. 38° and bright sunshine and the late February sun is not making a dent in the 2 inches of sleet that fell on Friday. One of the things you have to love about sleet. If I could start off any winter in the first week of December with a good six-inch sleet storm we could have snow cover for 90 consecutive days. And when I say we I mean the Hudson Valley. I know snow cover has become pretty foreign for any length of time in New York City and the coastal plain.
  3. Please call the incompetents measuring in Central Park this year and remind them.
  4. Entering my second consecutive day without snow cover it's 30° and snowing moderately. Hoping that second line lives up to expectations but this is not to shabby. Edit: Snow now heavy at least 1/4 inch so far.
  5. There’s still something about that word that just irritates the hell out of me. It must be that the a hole that so over uses it has made it like hearing nails on a chalkboard, at least for me.
  6. A sad day for all, but I'm calling an end to the consecutive days with snow cover streak today at 41 consecutive days. Maybe 50% coverage right now but by tomorrow it should be just the piles and deep shaded areas. It wasn't an impressive streak for depth or even quality of the snow cover through most of the days but at least it made most of January and the first half of February look like Winter. Add in the slightly below average temperatures for the period which are becoming harder and harder to achieve in our current new winter environment and I can at least say I've had 6 weeks of winter. It's also 2 days since I've blocked Nostranus19 and yet I still see his posts on so many other quotes I'm wondering what the point was. A symbolic gesture at best I suppose.
  7. Before 1993 the last 10 inch plus storm in March in NYC was March 3-4 1960 14.5 inches. There have been 67 storms of 10 inches or more in NYC since records have been kept the last 153 years. Here's the breakdown by month. No. Pct of total 10 + inch snows 1 1.5% November 13 19.4% December 16 23.9% January 26 38.8% February 9 13.4% March 2 3.0% April 67 100.0% Total
  8. It depends what everyone's expectations of warm is. To expect constant 60's in March is so far from the norms it would be unhealthy. Even in NYC the average highs don't reach the mid 60's until late in April.
  9. Or the whole month of March 2018 (43.4 inches with another 6.4 in April) with the March 7 2018 repeat.
  10. 10° for the low this morning. I'm guessing the consecutive days with snow cover will end on Friday at 42 days, an impressive streak for a period that only saw near normal snowfall during the period, 23.9 inches, where I am. The often talked about Torch looks to be short lived and sporadic, already the end of February looking like back to normal. It would be nice if the last week of February to the last week of March could produce a nice snowy pattern for the HV, if it does I'll be ready for spring by April 1.
  11. Nope, not worth my time, but I guess in a way I just did. I erased it right after reading it and just blocked him immediately after. He's just not worth the 20 seconds a day I use to waste reading his drivel.
  12. Don't under estimate his private messages either. I don't think he's limited there, and they can be quite nasty, and I'll leave it at that.
  13. I often wish there were “find a new hobby instead of stalking people that like snow”emojis on here, but certainly no one person in particular in mind. I’m just throwing out random suggestions.
  14. I never realized they recorded 14 inches for the Jan 96 blizzard. And I thought Central Parks 20.2 for that event was horrendous, most agree that was 24-27 easily. That Bridgeport report is just egregious.
  15. For the most part yes. Even Central Park received almost 3 inches despite reporting 1.6, but that's par for the course as they revert back this year to the old days of under measuring.
  16. And remember when you told everyone the max snowfall for Sunday would be 1 inch and everyone in the forum received 3-5 inches. Well except for the one inch you claim to have received.
  17. 4° for the low this morning. Consecutive days of snow cover now at 40, although a much better looking snow cover now after the 4 inch refresher on Sunday morning. Impressive for a winter that has only seen 25.9 inches of snow up here so far.
  18. They all F up once in a while which you can forgive. The Parks 1.6 yesterday underdone again for the fourth time this season. Looks like they're reverting back to the Zookeeper days. Hoping they fix it before they scroo up another historic storm.
  19. 1.6 inches in Central Park as reported by God knows who. They are back to their old ways in the Park this year, this is the fourth storm of the winter they are continually giving low numbers. From all observations I've seen the number should have been about 2.5. I don't know why after all these years it still drives me crazy but it does.
  20. According to the latest guidelines you take the maximum depth of the snow that fell during the calendar day. And yes to the snowboard as i see Julian already mentiomed.
  21. 4.0 inches even in Orange County, Highland Mills. It's just crazy how Suffern has almost 4 inches and Monroe 4 inches but right in between the two a mere 7-8 miles away from both Snowman19 got an inch, which he predicted all week would be the max. You have to give the guy credit for always being right, or never admitting to being wrong. Amazing.
  22. 4.0 inches on the nose. 26° and light snow continues. A very pleasant surprise.
  23. Maybe someone can verify this for me, but according to my records the 8.3 inches of snow recorded in Central Park from the January 28-29 storm becomes the 100th storm of 8.3 inches or more in NYC since records have been officially kept since 1869.
  24. 27° moderate snow continues. Haven't officially gone out to measure yet and still had a couple inches otg so will have to venture out soon to see how much new snow has fallen on the board. Looks like it may be 2+ inches already but since I was expecting 0 still wondering if my eyes deceive me. WWA for 2-3 inches in Orange, Rockland, Putnam and Westchester. Love surprises like this.
