    Look up 1965-66, Norfolk Virginia, 40 plus inches of snow while we had 20 something (a normal winter for us, a historic one for them.) Our epic winter came the following year, 1966-67, after a historically hot and dry summer, 4 days of 100+ with 107 at LGA, 104 at JFK and 103 at NYC. The real head scratcher is this is a la nina, when such things are not supposed to happen.

    January 2016 was far from a lock. Modeling has improved sure, but it's still not close to perfect and nothing is a sure thing until within 48 hours.

    we got let out of school at noon that day February 1983 was a lot like PD2 and January 2016 All in strong el ninos, all trended north.
  4. LibertyBell
    we forgot about January 2015 when we experienced January 2016
  5. LibertyBell
    Neither was January 1996 or January 2016 or PD2

    7 pm is the ideal time to measure because the city flipped to a mix at 6:30

    Don has the negative AO maxed out or will it go even lower?

    all I've read here is the temps will snap back to much warmer in March, it's about time, this winter has been a very long one regardless of how many inches of snowfall we've had or not had.
  9. LibertyBell
    But this time there would be zero rain or mix, it would just be too cold, much colder than it was during *Nemo*

    Looks like it might have been even more snow for Central and South Jersey based on the map Stormlover posted above.

    10:1 ?!
  12. LibertyBell
    what did the 12z run have? 20+ for everyone?
  13. LibertyBell
    what's the 10:1 at the end of the storm (0z on Friday or whenever)?
  14. LibertyBell
    wow that's better than I thought it would be. 14.0 on that run for here
  15. LibertyBell
    It's not bad, just need it a bit further west.
  16. LibertyBell
    Maybe no one will get anything, including DC
  17. LibertyBell
    when will that kicker be properly sampled?

    I just dont like the word *shower* when it refers to snow, it's a huge source of confusion for many people who always associate *shower* with rain. I think that term needs to be retired from the weather lexicon and just use flurries instead You're right though, can't waffle back and forth, they should just say *A chance of snow*
  19. LibertyBell
    a *shower* not never even refer to snow, I hate that overused phrase with a passion a shower should ONLY refer to rain
  20. LibertyBell
    *snow showers* is the most overused phrase in history
  21. LibertyBell
    Don't mess with Santa
  22. LibertyBell
    But that kicker hasn't even been sampled yet? When will that be properly sampled-- Monday?
  23. LibertyBell
    the ground is colder than the air temperature

    Highs:EWR: 76 (1949)NYC: 73 (1949)LGA: 74 (1949)JFK: 64 (1954)Lows:EWR: -7 (1943) NYC: -8 (1943)LGA: -7 (1943)JFK: 5 (2015) That -8 in 1943 was the last time NYC was colder than -2 ! Is the -7 at LGA their all time record low, Tony? 73-76 is unusually warm for February! No records for JFK in 1949 Tony (obviously not for the cold in 1943.)

    But then you can also have a super windy blizzard like January 2016 with 12 straight hours of true blizzard conditions that drops over 30 inches at JFK. Maybe February 1978 is an example of wind reducing total snowfall though as JFK only received 14 inches in that storm, less than half of what they got in January 2016.
