Maybe it just doesn't have as much of an effect as other factors. In 2013-14 and 2014-15 we had a -EPO and we have one now too. Those years had much more snow and cold than this year though so maybe without the solar maximum this winter would have been even colder.
-
Yep, here too, it started as snow right away. None of that cold rain nonsense that some were talking about. -
4 is the minimum needed to be considered a good event.
-
it started as snow here at 1:30 PM, no worries about rain at the start. no sticking yet though.
-
it started as snow here, no rain at the start.
-
It has just started to snow here!
-
you got it before we did, nothing here.
-
why are you copying my posts lol
-
New Orleans might get 4+ before New York City does ;-)
-
yep, there's always some sort of subsidence on the south shore, unless we're in a big el nino and then we usually jackpot (as long as it stays all snow.)
-
Looks like 4"+ areawide even down to Long Beach. I saw the top end of that scale is 72 inches.... well thats never happening in our area lol.
-
Don, what do you see as the time frame for that 3 hour window of heaviest snowfall?
-
What's the reason it happens in February, Chris? I noticed that during that colder era it would often flip back to colder again in March. Is there something about February that makes it so different from both January and March?
-
1994 had the real warm up a few days after the second snowstorm in February and then we went back to cold and snowy in March.
-
the last week of January is when these forecasts gain some accuracy.
-
The field is remarkably good at making specific weather calls within 3 days Don, but the Day 5-7 period and especially beyond Day 7 is very much a toss up. Outside of very general terms, there should be no forecasts made past 7 days.
-
You should use a pop up blocker I don't get any popups at all.
-
Was this the date that supermarket roof collapsed in Massapequa back in 1996, Tony? It was also the coldest morning back in 1994.
-
It shows that a 50/50 low can be a bad thing if it's too strong. The winds were really bad for many days.
-
it's also bright and sunny
-
what happened to back in the day when they used to put down sand instead of salt? Sand is more environmentally friendly than salt is. And that cranberry concoction they use down in the South is even better.
-
and the total snowfall was around 1 ft with drifts of 5 ft plus?
-
Looks like we finally have a projection of below 30.0 Don, maybe the next few snowfall chances are helping to bring the January projected average lower?
-
Don were there any snowfall measurements and temp readings and wind measurements taken back then-- maybe from The Battery? I think their records go further back then Central Park's?
-
Eastern LI did well but I'll always remember that period for all the busts 1988-89 had the infamous February 1989 bust and 1989-90 had the infamous December 1989 bust. There were a couple of positive busts in there too like February 1991, but JFK had 3 single digit snowfall seasons in there.
