2/13 Significant/Major Winter Storm Discussion & Observations
Snowshack replied to Northof78's topic in New York City Metro
Just under 1” in Wading River, north shore Suffolk. Snow had been light to moderate. 32 degrees. Neighborhood street covered. -
3 years out of those 10 years in DC accounted for 60%+ of the total snowfall -- thats probably how it will play out here a well. Bluewave has illustrated the feast of famine nature of our snowfall many times.

Light snow in Wding River, just about a coating, 30f
-
Two Mdt to high impact events NYC subforum; wknd Jan 6-7 Incl OBS, and mid week Jan 9-10 (incl OBS). Total water equiv by 00z/11 general 2", possibly 6" includes snow-ice mainly interior. RVR flood potential increases Jan 10 and beyond. Damaging wind.

Agreed. Drove up to our place near Gore today. Theres more mud than snow around. Remembering how reliably cold and snowy the end of December used to be up here is depressing. To some extent spring/fall tourism has picked up and the ski resorts are doing more to attract visitors in four seasons. Holiday weeks like this take a toll though…
-
Gore webcam looks better than I can remember ... they're reporting 24" from this storm so far and 43" for first two weeks of March. Great stretch.
-
Not even a trace in wading river - you were in a good spot!
-
Some light snow and sleet in Wading River, 34f. Third try at covering the grass this winter. Should be the charm- fingers crossed.
-
I don't know - if you look at Don's futility chart six of those years are in the last 25 years. Think its pretty likely we see awful winters like this again, along with some high snowfall years mixed in as well. The endangered species is probably a wall to wall cold winter.
-
Light snow in Wading River, 33F with a quick coating on the ground. Almost like the old days.
-
Nice little light snow shower on north shore of LI. Colder surfaces already coated. Might go unnoticed in a typical year but have face pressed against the window now.
-
Still around 50 days of more favorable climo left, still think a shutout is the least likely outcome. At least I hope so.
-
Those 80’s winters at least had plenty of cold intervals. The snow futility this year may feel the same as those but the fact that we continue to warm I think dampens hopes for future big winters, at least at the coast. Not saying we’re done, but obviously there’s got to be a breaking point.
-
Would be much easier to appreciate the positives if these warm episodes didn't feel connected to an alarming problem.
-
Personal inconvenience may be the only thing that gets some people to care about this.
-
Many people would say the same about our area. That area has benefitted from alot of investment over the last decade. I don’t think someone used to a suburban lifestyle down here would feel out of place in some of those suburbs.
-
Perfect holiday script unfolding in Buffalo -- two plus days of heavy snow on 23rd and 24th followed by a break on Christmas day with temps in the 20's.
-
Good chance we'll see a cold/snowy 12/20 - 12/25 at some point too despite it feeling like forces are aligned against that.
-
Not to defend big oil, but I think Three Mile Island killed Shoreham.
-
Everything still under warranty? Unfortunately you're probably going to have to ride them to get it fixed. Somethings malfunctioning for sure ---for comparison i have 29 panels and generating about 50kWh on max August days.
-
Problems with the panels themselves?
-
Will generate about 37% more power from our rooftop solar panels this August over last. July was up 30% YOY. I'm never a fan of summer weather but all the sunshine has some practical benefits. Still .. this is banter right? Bring on winter.
-
Yeah solid thunderstorm in Wading River now, plenty of thunder and lightning.

Ice pellets mixed with the rain in Wading River, 43F
