  1. I wonder what the airports got? Whatever fell is completely gone since the sun has been out strongly for the past 2 hours now.
  2. 1.0, sometimes I worry with these *exact* inch amounts, they look like estimates.
  3. yup bright and sunny since 12:30
  4. If January 2009 is a possible analog, I'd expect a few small to moderate sized snowfall events but long duration snowcover because of the cold.
  5. I wasn't aware that 2008-09 was a possible analog for this season. We did have snowy bouts in in all four wintry months DJFM that season. Nothing huge (except for that one MECS we had on March 1st, still my largest March snowstorm lol.)
  6. Does this mean it will probably stick around to later in the season than normal too?
  7. I wish there was a device that was permanently mounted in the ground that would save the deepest depth of snow during a given storm. I know it wouldn't be the best way to measure snow but such an automated device would be far better than what they do there now. Snowfall measuring is the one weather thing that still requires a human, might as well automate it too.
  8. I'm sure next year's severe and tropical season will be more active than this one was.
  9. The famous GFS Miracle, probably our greatest positive bust of all time!
  10. What's causing this very fast Pacific Jet Chris? I read somewhere that temperature differences between north and south can cause the Jet to speed up.
  11. I suppose it counts as a white Christmas if there was at least an inch on the ground by 7 PM Christmas evening (the last regular measurement of the day)?
  12. That really came after Christmas though
  13. Yep, and they were actually quite similar. Both featured December MECS then a multiweek break in January and then winter came roaring back in February and March. The big difference was 95-96 had the January 1996 blizzard, there was nothing that huge in 1966-67. But many more moderate events that stacked up, especially later in the season.
  14. that was hands down one of the best winters ever-- right after one of the best summers ever
  15. and this time Lucy might let Charlie Brown kick the football too.
  16. Imagine if Central Park had a 30" snowstorm like JFK did in January 2016 and the measured amount was like 29" at 1 am and another inch fell until the snow ended at 3 am and they didn't measure again until 7 am and missed that extra inch. On top of that all the airports recorded 30"+ People would be really pissed that they undermeasured a once in a lifetime storm at Central Park.
  17. Many.... but drones are a serious source of light pollution, I can't tell you how many times I'm outside trying to take pictures of the night sky and an annoying drone buzzes by like a bee and I want to down the damn thing This isn't a now thing, it's been like this for a few years now. At the very least they should not be allowed to fly at night EVER
  18. I would be utterly fine with banning all drones. We lived just fine without them.
  19. Thanks Don it's interesting that our usual great radiational cooling spots like KFOK and KMJX never got to 0 or below.

  21. I can tell you this, December snowfalls are MUCH more enjoyable than March snowfalls.
