    Nam has Poughkeepsie area in .5-.6 qpf with temps in lows 20's throughout. That could easily translate to 7-9 inches of snow.

    Snowpack was 16 inches at the end of day yesterday, down to an even 12 inches at the end of the day today. I could only guess but I assume the LE is 3-4 inches in that pack, which once it freezes up again the next couple of days should make it very sun resistant. Hoping to add 6-12 Thursday & Friday and have a snowpack through at least mid March or hopefully longer. We shall see.

    36° not to much snow pack damage here, still 14 inches otg, down 2 inches from yesterday.

    Temp 32.5° snow pack at 14.5 inches was 16 late yesterday afternoon. So compacting going on with the feezing rain/rain that fell but overall not bad. If I get to tonight with a foot still otg I'll call it a win and hope for a rebuild on Thursday.

    You do realize 90 degrees in April in NYC is pretty rare. There have been 12 Aprils in 152 years of record keeping that have had a day of 90 or above in NYC. Since a few of those 12 years had 2 days, or in 1976 & 2002 3 days, there have been 19 days in total in April of 90 degrees of 4,560 total April days in that period. The average is a about every 12 years or so NYC sees a 90 degree day in April so not far from the 11 year cycles you reference.

    If you live anywhere 30 miles or more NW, N or NE of NYC I’m not sure why you would expect March to be anything but another winter month which is what it is the far majority of the time. I guess some people on the coastal plain view it differently, but I’ve lived here most of my life and have never counted on extended warmer weather until late April the earliest.

    4° and 18 inches of snow otg, paradise. I can't visit the other NYC forums anymore. I believe Julian alluded to something similar in the last few days. The things I read there it's like being on another planet. They've never seen snow like this, they've never seen snow otg this long before, they've never seen an ice storm, they've never experienced sub zero cold. Where do some of these people live, has the NYC forum extended down to the Carolinas? I know the NJ Coastal plain and NYC is a different climate than the HV, NWNJ and interior CT but it seems over the top to me. Just one mans opinion.

    0.7 inches here, 50.5 on the season 18.5 otg. Very remiss of me. Carrying the last name of measuresnow you would think I would be more conscientious

    It's actually tied for 14th. The way many of those online lists work when two periods are tied, in this case 1898/99 and 1919/20 at 25.3 inches, they include both of those years as one place on their list and then increment to the next number not two places past as it should. In this case there are 13 seasons ahead of Feb 2021's 21.2 inches which make this month and 1995/96 tied for 14th at 21.2 inches.

    1.3 inches as of the 8:40AM observation at the Park which is their final total. 33.8 inches for the season for them now and 21.2 inches for February. Getting the record for the month of 36.9 inches (2010) will be tough IMO.
  11. CPcantmeasuresnow
    0.7 inches for this event puts the seasonal now at 50.5 inches right at the average for a full season. Happy that the extreme southern end of our forum finally jackpotted.

    It was -1 in NYC about five years ago to the day.
  13. CPcantmeasuresnow
    Good question. That of course was when NYC hit their all time record low of -15° and I believe the NYS record low at Old Forge NY of -52° was also during that outbreak. Upton may not have been keeping records then. I don't think LGA or JFK were either, but others can check me on that. I'm going from memory on that so not certain.
  14. CPcantmeasuresnow
    Not to be cruel or unfeeling, although I guess it's both, but who the hell cares, better for us.

    What a fantastic winter that was. There was a deep snow pack like the current one through much of the winter, and that ice storm on top of the pack which stuck on everything for days was for lack of a better word breathtaking in its beauty. Of course the record cold was the only time in my life I've experienced actual temperatures below -20°. During the coldest morning of January 1994 most recording stations in the HV were -20° or below, Newburgh, Middletown, Poughkeepsie all were sub -20°. I personally recorded -23° in Highland Mills in Orange County. There were readings below -30° within 50 miles of NYC in NWNJ, I think it was Sparta or Sussex hit -34°, someone can check me on that. And of course this was all temperatures not wind chills. For those that think it can't get that cold around here it does occasionally happen. I wasn't quite born yet for the January 1961 cold outbreak, Which outdid the January 1994 outbreak, but I do know Poughkeepsie hit their all time low of -30° for that one. Those temperatures are not just exclusive to the Upper Midwest and Northern Plains.

    Storm Totals Upton area, Orange County wins in a landslide. https://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?site=NWS&format=CI&version=1&glossary=0&highlight=off&issuedby=OKX&product=PNS

    2.8 inches in Highland Mills, Orange County, 49.8 inches for the season.
  18. CPcantmeasuresnow
    This reeks of collusion.
  19. CPcantmeasuresnow
    2.8 inches here, brings me to 49.8 for the season or right about seasonal norm. After last years 22 inch disaster of a winter we deserve this.

    Went back to moderate snow for a bit but now back to light snow, 2.0 inches even now., about 10 miles south of 84.
  21. CPcantmeasuresnow
    Highland Mills in Orange County 1.8 inches and the snow has become light flurries. Temperature 20.3°. Most models had it snowing here until early afternoon with about 4 inches expected. Oh well seasonal total now 48.8 inches which is right near the seasonal average. IT looks like the train of storms for the next week may have fallen off the tracks into a deep canyon. I'm not sure anyone survived.

    Highland Mills in Orange County 1.8 inches and the snow has become light flurries. Temperature 20.3°. If this is it models were pretty bad with this. Most had it snowing here until early afternoon with about 4 inches expected.
  23. CPcantmeasuresnow
    Highland Mills in Orange County, steady snow, borderline moderate 1.2 inches so far.
  24. CPcantmeasuresnow
    The 0Z 3k NAM. it's consistent with the bullseye over the HV.
