Bottomed out at 0° this morning. I would fully expect all non-Urban and non shore areas to go below zero tonight, if skies remain clear and winds calm. I would expect a lot of double digit below zero in the forum area tomorrow morning in the usual colder spots.

I bottomed out at 0° this morning. 0.3° to be exact. With clear skies, calm winds and deep snow cover, I would expect the entire northern forum to be below zero tomorrow morning. I would also expect to see many double digit below zero. I might be wrong, but we shall see.

I was -2.7 this morning. That would round to -3. That's the way I've always done it. If it had been -2.5 I would have done the same.

Butler I would say 45 inches.

Morning low was -2.7°, my coldest so far this season. 43.0 inches of snow so far this season and today marks day 46 with snow cover

Morning low was -2.7°, my coldest so far this season. 43.0 inches of snow so far this season and today marks day 46 with snow cover. Passing last years total of 51 days appears to be a lock.

That's no excuse

Way to many Boston references in there coming from a supposed New Yorker.

A lot of us just received 15-18 inches of snow and the temperature never went above 12. Do better than it's too cold.

With a forecast low of 4° tonight it's already down to 1.4°.

Central Park had 53 consecutive days of snowpack that winter. Most of the days were 6 inches plus in depth. They didn't set the record but it was close. If Don sees this he would probably know what the record is for consecutive days. Off the top of my head I'm thinking it's 58?

Just took out the garbage and was surprised there was as much snow as there was from todays afternoon snow on the driveway. Did anyone bother to take a measurement? I measured 0.4 inches.

They're heavy favorites right now.

Yes, it's been so long.

That's a lot of leans to the left

My new favorite model. It's never been wrong to my knowledge. Today of course is the first day I ever heard of it.

Not a very representative map for Orange County. Most locations are 38-45 inches right now.

3.7° right now with a 20 inch or so snow pack. One of those times where I won't mind getting a storm this weekend but I'm not gonna live and die with it either. I'm pretty content right now with the way things are and look. The one thing lacking so far this winter has been extreme cold. I've been below zero only once -1°, Daytimes have been cold but for whatever reason we haven't had one of those nights of clear, calm, and widespread radiational cooling to negative double digits. I'm nitpicking I know.

April

It brings up an interesting question what is your limit as a snow weenie from one storm? I have a wind limit of about 25. Never been found of high winds, they're conducive to losing power and nothing worse than watching a snow storm in a cold dark house. I'd put my accumulation limit at 50 inches. The February 2010 blizzard which hit the west side of the Hudson particularly hard with a heavy wet snow was when I realized I had a limit. We had 35 inches from that storm in Highland Mills, with several inches on the ground before it began. Towards the end of the storm I started to find myself getting concerned whether my roof and decks would handle the weight. Other than that let it snow.

Better yet, how do we calculate who won? Is this like the price is right and any guesses that went over are disqualified? Or are we just taking the total deviation from predicted amounts from the actual and adding up the total for all six cities for each participant? I'm not sure who's doing that.

Well just because Central Park can't, there's a much bigger forum area out there that can.

We have enough snow on the ground right now that I can live with a miss. But if I don't have to, I'd rather not.

As of Midnight last night. NYC - Central Park 11.4 inches - Seems about right for a change. Newark Airport 11.5 inches LGA 9.7 inches - Seems supect. Low compared to all surrounding reports Islip 12.9 inches Bridgeport 15.1 inches JFK 10.3 inches

16.3 inches final and 42.6 year to date. I never went above 9° while it was snowing. It stayed between 5°-7° through most of the event.
