Thunderstorms incoming

Pouring snow here for the last ten minutes

Let’s see if you switch to all snow. I’m still rain here and I’m 25 miles inland.

Not quite, it’s just at I-287 now.

It’s getting close here. The snow line has made it to Sterling Forrest.

I’m just being realistic. This is the new normal. It manages to snow it seems in every month except December, January and February. It was 82 degrees here last Sunday. Can’t make this sh*t up.

I don’t think flakes will make it all the way to the coast. Could be wrong, but it’s still 40 degrees where I am and the back edge is already to the Poconos.

None of the models that take melting into account showed accumulating snow near the coast. Those 10:1 maps are garbage even in Winter.

That deformation band on radar looks pretty legit.

We were in a day 3 slight risk last time, wasn’t exactly a marginal risk. Keep posting clown maps showing accumulating snow at the coast in May.

Wind has really picked up, snow is getting close on radar.

Can’t disagree but it’s not gonna happen either way. I’m expecting some flurries here around midnight lasting maybe an hour and I’m well inland and have some elevation.

Big pattern shift starting next week.

lol at starting a thread for snow in almost mid May. Even if everything came together perfectly, it would have been nothing but white rain outside of the highest elevations. I’m glad Mother Nature came to her senses and punted this mess. Time to bring on the nice weather. Memorial Day is 2 weeks from Monday.

Topped out at 82 here. Superb mid Spring day.

Coming up on the 10th anniversary of my favorite March storm of all time.

lol

Had almost 5” of rain in Mahwah for the 11/2-11/3 storm.

PA tornado outbreak?

"Shaking felt thousands of miles away, devastation from Boston to DC as 8.0 magnitude Earthquake strikes along the Ramapo fault in NJ"

Is @HurricaneJosh still over in that region? If so, might as well hope over to Taiwan for the next one.

He hasn’t posted anything on Twitter or Facebook for roughly seven hours. He said he was about to lose all connectivity and he was still well outside the eyewall. Probably one of his most dangerous chases ever given the remote location and intensity.

DIX destroyed OKX this time around.

It's really annoying that KDIX is down again.

With the clocks going back this weekend we're really going to start dropping into the doldrums of late Autumn. We've been lucky that it's been a relatively dry and mild Autumn so far, however that looks to change, at least somewhat moving ahead. I'm playing golf on Saturday afternoon in an attempt to hold onto the last gasps of outdoor activities. So we're three weeks away from Thanksgiving and about 7 1/2 weeks away from Christmas, and then we start turning the corner as days begin getting longer once again. It will be a slow few weeks in January, especially if the Southeast ridge returns, which I strongly favor in my thinking. After that it's two weeks for pitchers and catchers, the Daytona 500 and away we go as the long awaited first signs of Spring begin to emerge. It's always a great feeling that first day in late March when you can open up the windows and breathe in the fresh air after being cooped up for the previous 14 weeks or so. I love snow as much as anyone, but I have no use for cold. And the older I get, the more and more I hate the Winter. I take solace in knowing that legitimate Winter in these parts is usually no more than a 12 week affair, and hopefully this year it will be even less.
