typically we do better in very strong el ninos, I had 32" in Jan 2016 -
I see that even made it out west by LGA.... note the difference in snowfall amounts between LGA, NYC and JFK. I've seen it happen before too, we had a storm in December 1995 when LGA had 14" and NYC had 8" and JFK had 7"

funny how the south shore of long island does poorly even when further south does better lol
-
wow I didn't know Holbrook was such a happening place....
-
wow that sounds absolutely magical falling snow and the moon and the stars all visible at the same time
-
He meant to say Bermuda LOL

Extended summer stormlover74 future snow hole banter thread 23
LibertyBell replied to BxEngine's topic in New York City Metro
Even worse, Bastardi claims that those who are what we call "warministas" are always biased warm because of being climate change cultists and that they have a political agenda to push the agenda of climate change and that's why they always forecast warm and snowless. -
say what... they say snowless warm winters help keep tick populations in check? In my experience tick populations always boom after snowless winters (like last winter)
-
even so there could be a fluke March storm like March 1998 had. Not that anyone should ever expect such an event.
-
you might have a point there, I could see them doing this lol
-
JFK has had two consecutive seasons with under 10" of snow though correct? And two seasons out of three?
-
then again this was an even more weird experience-- I've never experienced heavy snow with the sun being visible at the same time!
-
it surprised me because the sun was shining through the clouds here the entire time it was snowing-- such a weird experience
-
No but I'm wondering if there really was such a sharp drop off within 5 miles.
-
that 0.3" at JFK is a joke unless there was a massive drop off here, about 5 miles east of there, it's going down as a trace, it wasn't even 0.1"
-
Walt, by JFK it wasn't even 0.1" more like a Trace. The sun was shining through the clouds the entire time and the snow was barely of light intensity at any time and very small flakes.
-
wow you had more than I did then. I just had a slight accumulation on wires and tree branches, nothing else. I wouldn't even call it 0.1-- it's going down as a Trace.
-
Yep the sun is starting to come back out and not even a single flake falling. Honestly, I dont even know how JFK got 0.1" lol
-
as it turns out we ended up with diddly squat lol 0 more salt and sand than snow,
-
this explains everything, we're SW of that green band and it's still very light snow here...I'm south of that "k" in "New York"
-
this is ironic even in southern events the south shore sometimes gets screwed
-
That 11 AM start time for the steady snow was a pretty good call.
-
Don did DC have more snow than NYC all 3 of those winters too?
-
steady light snow and like yours, it's not sticking to anything yet.
-
I can say it's graduated from light flurries to steady light snow now lol
