    Depends how you define "cool" at that point

    Pleasantly surprised at all this sunshine, breezy 57

    In Spain, and brushing Portugal too. Edge of the path of totality passes through northern parts of Madrid.

    The dim haze look at the peak was unique. Didn't expect much perceiveable darkening so it was a little more than I anticipated.

    I'm seeing the same with transformers blowing. Lights at home has been flikering for hrs, but power is holding on. Wind may not of verified for some, but it has here, maybe exceeded expectations.

    Wild drive on Shore Rd thru Pelham Bay Pk. LI Sound with large crashing waves. Huge crashing waves crashing into Glen Island. Full on Atlantic Ocean look

    From April 5th on, Amtrak heading upstate to path of totality is sold out by now. Only thing I saw available was 1 train the morning of, which is cutting it extremely close, like to the minute.

    For real. I'm hoping against the odds and climatologal history for a clear sunny Apr 8th.

    Yeah, I got down to 28. Trees etc in bloom look unscaved. Many of the cherry blossoms were past peak anyway, and the later blooming varieties haven't opened yet.

    Thurs night/Fri AM a freeze looks likely even within NYC. Perhaps a hard freeze at that. We'll see how these cherry blossoms and magnolia blooms fare by next weekend.

    Breaks of sun got me to 72, now light showers and 70
  12. dWave
    74 and sunny light breeze

    Not complaining but..where the wind? Last night was windy but it's nearly calm now

    I saw a lanternfly on Sunday, which I thought was way to early. It wasn't the little baby ones either. 40 degree winters will do that I guess. There's little sustained freezing temps, at least in urban areas. Back to back winters too.

    This is very true..but it's worth noting the records for today were on the lower side. For Central Park today was one of the very few days this late with a record high below 70. Record highs in the 60s start fading away by late Feb, and they are just about gone by this point...but obviously there are couple hanging on, i.e today.

    Bright sunshine..not a cloud in the sky and 60* already.

    Random question..how do they calculate climate normals on leap days. Is the avg high/low just from the leap years over the 30 yr normals period, or do they just use Feb 28th averages again for today?

    It actually make sense to me for JFK to be a little cooler. JFK has always radiated well at night by NYC standards, so you have some cooler lows in many setups. Then warm ups in winter are muted, often severely so, at JFK. Occasional days spiking well into the 50s or 60s will happen at Central Park but the smallest southern component to the wind will rob JFK of it and they will sit at 48 or something.

    2" here. 8.5" for the season. The slow climb to double digits continues.
  20. dWave
    Wait, Coney Island 9.9"!! A trained spotter too. Over 6" at JFK I didn't realize that heavy snow got so close while I was sleeping lol. I need pics of this.
  21. dWave
    I saw that too lol. Snow started late, ended early, and was really mild heading preceeding the snow. Temps was slower to drop off than predicted heading into it. They had a long way to go from the 50s during the day. I don't think they got into the heavy snow rates needed.

    Around 2" in the Bx on grassy surfaces. Streets are just wet, and just a coating on sidewalks. Trees are absolutely pasted though. Light snow now and 31.

    97 - 98 was easily worse imo. That year was 0.5" until the late March surprise 5" snowfall..which rapidly melted under the late March sun, followed by 80+ degree days to close out the month. So there was none of these 1 or 2" events we had earlier. It may not be a lot but it was something and at least coated the ground briefly. 97-98 was the closest thing to a virtual snowless DJF in anyone's memory today. By late March in 98 I was fine with keeping the record low snow season in tact.

    I had no anticipation of acclumation in most of Manhattan south of Central Park anyway. Not unless you get over an inch per hour rates for consecutive hours. Some short bursts from time to time won't cut it.

    Eyeballing looks about 4" on grassy surfaces, 6" on tree branches, 0 - 3" on paved surfaces depending how busy of a spot it is. Temp around 32 - 33 is helping compared to forecasts of 34 - 36.
