it really should be better than this. I know that people say it's spring bla bla bla, but aside from 1982 and 1996, our Aprils and Mays were much warmer and drier than this between the late 70s and early 00s. We had far fewer -nao springs back then too.
-
Did 2014 have a later freeze than this though since we had accumulating snow on 4-16-2014? Funny that 2016 had such a late freeze even though it was such a mild winter (though it did have our last below zero temp on VD.) It's very weird that 2020 had such an early last freeze and yet we had snow in May.
-
Interesting the GFS has Westhampton above freezing but NYC below freezing, usually FOK is much colder than Central Park.
-
Our latest freeze since 2020, Chris? I remember we had snow in May that year but I'm not sure how late our last freeze was. If it wasn't that year then the only other season I can think of with a very late freeze since 1996 and 2003 would be 2014 when we had accumulating snow on April 16th.....
-
That makes a lot of sense.
-
So by looking at the forecasts, Monday is going to be rainy. Clearing and colder Tuesday and Wednesday, Wednesday morning lows near freezing even in the city. Clouds come in Thursday, rain Thursday night, Friday and Saturday, Sunday cloudy but dry and the really good weather comes in for Monday and Tuesday the following week, sunny and warm, near 70.

Westhampton 111 mph sustained (cat 3 confirmed!) 156 mph gusts?
-
It peaked in the mid 60s here (64) before the heavy overcast moved back in. Why don't these crappy storms ever rain themselves out?
-
Don, parts of New York City could see some snow ?
-
What did Westhampton have? I think they had the highest winds in our area?
-
It's been nice and sunny for 2 hours now and into the lower 60s here.
-
It looks like the sun is trying to come out.....
-
and 8 inches at both airports But eastern LI had 16 inches about the same amount they received in April 1996 (a much wetter snow.)
-
Rain all weekend again, Tony?
-
It could be true especially since it was no longer purely tropical. Worse than Sandy in terms of winds wow (we had 90-95 mph winds here from Sandy.)
-
Yes, last October and first half of November were my favorite 6 weeks in Fall in over a decade (probably going back to 2010.)
-
Yes the *warmth* doesn't mean much if it's going to be cloudy/foggy/misty/drizzly/rainy Spring weather was much better in the 70s/80s/90s/all the way to 2002.
-
as long as it doesn't rain every other day
-
Yep, cool/cold this time of year is only a problem at night. I hope your solar panels work out, our springs seem to be getting wetter (and cooler in terms of high temperatures.) You might need to clean it often otherwise mold and/or mildew might reduce its efficiency (if we keep getting wet weather like this.)
-
lol it will be worse Tuesday through Thursday will be okay. There will be sun, even though it's cold, who cares, the sun is high enough in the sky during the day that it won't matter much.
-
There really wasn't, I've experienced a real drought.
-
Thank goodness we didn't get that here! Sunshine would be much better than this cloudy muck though.
-
But the 1938 storm made landfall 100 miles east of Manhattan.
-
told you lol, there was no real drought
-
I wonder what the wind speeds were in the Norfolk and Long Island hurricane? All I see are storm surge values and minimum barometric pressure-- what about wind speeds?
