First shorts day of the year for me on my route.

Just heard some thunder outside my window.

on March 22nd 1998 NYC got 5" of snow...2-3" on Staten island...from March 27th to 31st  the temperature topped 80 degrees...90 imby on the 31st...April 1998 had no days in the 80's...the highest temp was 73 near the end of the month...

I'll take a sunny day in the 60s on March 26th.  I don't care about the rest of the month.

Anyone got a Euro? 

Way out to sea.  Not a drop of precip west of Islip, light rain showers for the rest of the island.  

5 years ago today Euro said we were getting 3 feet of snow in the city. Upton put out a 24-36 inch snow map for the 5 Boros.

You're right. 2010-2011 was an AMAZING year for snowstorms. We had two KU events that winter which followed a KU event in February 2010. We haven't had one since January 2016.

I started delivering mail summer of 2013 (orientation was during that July heat wave).  My first 2 winters (13-14, 14-15) working outside were snowy and brutally cold.  I took notice.  Then my third winter featured the massive blizzard which I drove to work in and then drove home after being at work for 2 hours.  This decade hasn't been that bad

light snow picking up again here. Arden Heights, Staten island

been snowing steadily for 15 minutes here on the south shore of Staten Island. Everything already covered

Impressive. The UPS driver at work wears shorts year round. I love wearing shorts and push the season on both ends but that’s a bit extreme IMO 

My shorts threshold carrying the mail is 60 degrees.  Wore shorts on Christmas Eve 2015.  My favorite Christmas rush season weather wise in my postal career.  

Wait a second, 5th straight day? Yesterday was sunny and clear. You saw snow yesterday?

flakes here as well. 5th straight day of snow falling from the sky.

Some light flurries here as I do my early morning parcel run. Thank you to everyone who shopped Cyber Monday.

I'm in Arden Heights, cars and grass covered, but sidewalks and streets still bare.

Staten Island must be getting dumped on.

still rain here on Staten Island while watching it accumulate on tv at Metlife Stadium.

Lets see what Ukie and Euro say. A NAM/Ukie/Euro combo is usually deadly.

Pop up downpour out of nowhere for me on Staten Island. More like the day before July 4th rather than the day before Thanksgiving.

I feel like it's kind of sleeting outside. I'm outside and it def has that sound. I doubt it though

Edit: It's defitnitly rain/sleet mix right now. Sleet bouncing off the car. Nice! Location Jersey City, nj

Yep. I heard sleet too around 7:45 when I was parking the mail truck by the Outerbridge. 

Up to 71 by me.  Had to change into shorts.  

95 was the high here as well. Down to a brisk 91.

I'm up to 92. Impressive

clouds in the city i doubt we get to 90 ..

Boxing Day is going to be my number 1 for a long time.  The jackpot for that one went right over Staten Island.  Ended up with 30 inches.
