  1. I guess this is another example of how different the weather is across the area---On LI--yesterday was 82 and overcast, minimal rain, currently 70 and cloudy and muggy. Was hoping for another heatwave
  2. what happened to the heat?
  3. I can attest to that--was outside LIJ when it started--damaged hundreds of vehicles--no snow plows needed. Watched softball sized hail fall from the sky and wreak havoc
  4. Thunder, lightning, heavy rain and hail. All by 11:15 am in Melville, LI
  5. We can only hope that this verifies
  6. Don't forget that you grew up in the HV, that's a vastly different winter experience than those who are from Manhattan and eastward. Storms were always "North and west of the city" for accumulating snow. Every teacher/professor I queried would explain to me how difficult it was to get snow set-ups on an island surrounded by warmish water.
  7. I agree-don’t have the background or knowledge base to support my theory. Just practical experience tells me that rain will somehow get into the forecast for Long Island.
  8. Anthony, a serious question for you. would you rather have current conditions—blocking but suppression? or Storms at 38 degrees? This winter has demonstrated or reminded us just how many things have to go right (or wrong) for it to snow near the coast. The last 20 years have been unbelievable, rather anomalous, there is a reason our long term averages are around 30 inches of snow.
  9. I’m sorry you inferred that from a simple true statement. That’s on you, not on my statement
  10. An average that has been bolstered by anomalous amounts the last 20 years numbers are easily manipulated look at the 1980’s, 1970’s I still maintain a lot of things have to go right in order for the tri state area to receive a major snow. The last 20 years I’ve been nothing short of spectacular
