  1. Don’t worry, you get used to it. more about the seasons vs specific days ie warm spring vs dry and warm winter
  2. Can you please explain this further? I am on Long Island and what does this mean for the area? Moderate temps? Fewer opportunities for snow? Thanks in advance
  3. Fox are there as well. Deer have been spotted on the North Shore Tower golf course.
  4. Coyotes are in Queens, Nassau and Suffolk. They are growing in numbers
  5. Whitman has good pickleball courts now We played Commack in football on Saturday. Very nice school
  6. Live near Crestwood. You lived near White Post and Whitman park?
  7. Currently live in Melville and this time of the year we see them everyday. Daytime too. Yesterday even had wild turkeys-first time I’ve seen them
  8. Agree-time to move on to nice weather Any idea when Long Island can get some 60’s and 70’s consistently? These 50 degree days are getting old…
  9. The wind has been relentless as well. A few sunny 75 degree days with out wind would feel great
  10. Definitely does not feel like a warm March on Long Island.
  11. And I don’t think we have had nearly the heat NJ has enjoyed
  12. Remember how cool the 1st week of July was on LI? Seems like a lifetime ago. Big recovery to get to 77
  13. Very comfortable here in Melville as well. 72 and it feels cool
  14. Very well said! Bring on Summer!
  15. Turning up the heat it appears
  16. I agree. But one thought I always come back to is that it is really difficult to get real, prolonged winter weather around here. As someone who grew up in the largely snowless winters of the late 70’s and 80’s(save for a few storms)I am reminded of an explanation I heard from a meteorologist regarding cold and snow around here. Plainly put, it’s really difficult due to the maritime influence on our weather. I’m sure there are technical reasons which I do not know about or understand, but that’s it in a nutshell. Lots of factors have to fall into place. But we seem to have gotten away from the mindset after the very snowy early 2000’s. Seems to me that we had an incredible streak that was just not sustainable from a climate perspective. My .02 I know now is not the time to be discussing winter, but the mindset is the important thing to remember here. We have to be realistic in our expectations
  17. I understand. Predicting weather is incredibly difficult, especially winter/snow in the greater NY area. Seems the desire to pull followers trumps reality
  18. Understandable. Seems to me that people like to make bold predictions to increase their followers. You were one of the more sensible people with respect to winter. You followed your training, rather than try to put your desires ahead of what was being shown. Thanks for responding. I always enjoy your discussions
  19. The reason I ask is that other posters were certain of winter weather patterns, always a week or 2 away. Obviously that never occurred(thankful tbh). I say bring on the heat.
  20. What, if anything could derail this? I admire your confidence in your call for heat this summer.
