  1. We had nothing like that here! Was this strictly a central and eastern Long Island storm? JFK,LGA had between 4-6 inches and NYC less than that?
  2. well the party is over and the snow has ended here, the temp is 35, it snowed for about 50 minutes and it was fun while it lasted. It only ever stuck a little to rooftops and my window as the wind blew it around.

  4. snow has gotten heavier, actually looks like a snowstorm outside right now (nothing is sticking of course, but it looks awesome midflight!)

  6. I remember them well! The first one brought 6.2 inches to NYC, the first 6"+ storm there in many years (but not here on the south shore, it was a mixture of snow and rain that stuck when it snowed and melted when it rained lol) and the second storm I was really looking forward to, because it was much colder and was going to be all snow, 5-8" was predicted but we got some sort of dry slot in the middle of the storm and only ended up with 3-5" with more emphasis on the 3" lol
  7. Snowing nicely here, not really hard, but it's nice to see it snowing and it's blowing around with the high winds and the temp is now 36

  9. What was the followup storm to January 2016, Chris? Was that the storm we had a few inches of snow but it could have been a lot more (the storm was just east of us.) Or was that in February? The storm where the crane fell in NYC?
  10. Crazy wind gusts though, rivaling what we had last night.
  11. What happened on 1/26/94? The two snow events in early February I remember clearly that year-- 2/8/94 and 2/11/94 I think? We also had a bowling ball low in late December 1993 and a moderate coastal in that same month.
  12. Plus heat has great historical value for us number geeks, there's just an amazing feeling of accomplishment when you hit 100 degrees
  13. I looked up NYC snowfall totals they were 50+ both seasons, the main differences were that although February was snowy in 2015 it was nearly historic in 2014, and March was much snowier in 2015, while we got zero snow in March 2014, but I have a lot better memories of 14-15 because it was backloaded.... nearly 20 inches of snow in March 2015 made it my snowiest March ever. https://www.weather.gov/media/okx/Climate/CentralPark/monthlyseasonalsnowfall.pdf
  14. You didn't get a lot in January 2015 either did you? We had about a foot (busted on the 3 foot call though lol-- that came the following January.)
  15. really? I thought you'd have more in 14-15 because you're in SNE and SNE was a 3 month party in 2014-15 lol Look how much Boston got lol
  16. for the coast though we had a lot less because a lot of those big storms mixed here. I liked 2014-15 more, because it was much colder and more long lasting snowpack. 2013-14 and 2014-15 back to back was almost like 2009-10 and 2010-11 back to back.
  17. 13-14 had too many mixing storms.... 14-15 could have done it because it was colder but the winter started too late, but even so, that ended up being Boston's big winter.
  18. Toms River was near the jackpot for most of the snowstorms that winter, not just the early February one, but one in January too.
  19. I don't know if you had it in your list, but would you say 1968-69 is a possible analog (based on how cold it's been in Seattle and how rare that is in an el nino, that is one of the few seasons that had that like this one does-- and this el nino is not behaving like a super or even strong el nino.)
