That's what I thought, this has happened in the past during mass extinction events....
-
and Central Park was the only one who got 5" from what I remember, the rest of us were more like 2-3" Still that was big in a season with only 0.5" It sucks though, it would have been far and away the lowest snowfall total ever if it wasn't for that one storm at the end. So historic in that sense.
-
It makes a lot of sense and here's another caution flag and this is for those who think nature will balance everything out on its own.... think of what it will take to "recalibrate" and what kind of effects that recalibration will have on us as a species.
-
and this is the first time they've ever averaged a winter above freezing? wow-- I didn't realize you could have that near our latitude, I thought you'd have to go up into the Dacks at least to average that cold....
-
He's probably thinking something like March 1998, and that was about as marginal as it gets lol. Did we ever get below freezing during that storm?
-
Yep same here, the only snow now left are the small piles on the edge of the parking lot.
-
Thats impressive... 06-07 and 07-08 were pretty bad too, but then we got to normal snowfall in 08-09
-
What causes ocean acidification, Don? Does the excess CO2 get absorbed by the oceans and make them more acidic?
-
Really? I thought it was supposed to cool down into the 40s by March 1 after being in the 60s at the end of February.
-
wow, the amount of added heat needed to create these kind of long term changes must be absolutely amazing
-
It reminds me of February 1989 we were forecast to get 6-8 and got nothing meanwhile ACY got 19"

Refresher snow & obs between ~midnight and Noon Sat Feb 17 2024
LibertyBell replied to wdrag's topic in New York City Metro
I really like how amounts outside of NJ were also plotted. -
I think Long Island (even this part) had more snow than parts of Maine that season..... I am 100% sure we had more snow than Binghamton.
-
in other words, a tipping point may have been reached.... or breached might be a better way of putting it.
-
It would be interesting to see when on average we get our last 1.0" storm and our last 0.1" storm, probably around March 20-22? I'd bet we might have already had our last 1.0" storm, not sure about last 0.1" though.
-
How much did ACY get in that storm?
-
This took a HUGE AMOUNT of energy to increase the temperature so much for a whole month so quickly over such a large area. Is there any way to perform calculations to figure out the total amount of energy increase necessary to do this?
-
it's wild how bad 2015-16 was up your way, we had over 40" (and two moderate events besides the historic blizzard.) funny thing is I did a quick count of +/- and unless my count is wrong you have 9 seasons above normal and 9 seasons below normal (I didn't take into account the amount of deviation though.)
-
Wow that was our last great snowstorm here, got a foot of snow!
-
Your words reminded me of this song sung by Billy Joel-- bold part: We walked on the beach beside that old hotel They're tearing it down now, but it's just as well I haven't shown you everything a man can do So stay with me baby, I've got plans for you This is the time to remember 'Cause it will not last forever These are the days to hold on to 'Cause we won't, although we'll want to This is the time But time is gonna change You've given me the best of you And now I need the rest of you Did you know that before you came into my life Some kind of miracle that I survived? Some day we will both look back and have to laugh We lived through a lifetime and the aftermath This is the time to remember 'Cause it will not last forever These are the days to hold on to 'Cause we won't although we want to This is the time But time is gonna change I know we've got to move somehow But I don't want to lose you now Sometimes it's so easy to let a day slip on by Without even seeing each other at all But this is the time you'll turn back and so will I And those will be the days you can never recall And so we embrace again behind the dunes This beach is so cold on winter afternoons About holding you close is like holding the summer sun I'm warm from the memory of days to come This is the time to remember 'Cause it will not last forever These are the days to hold on to 'Cause we won't although we'll want to This is the time But time is gonna change You've given me the best of you But now I need the rest of you

Only two data points in this list from my local area.... JFK with 12.8 and Howard Beach with 15.2.... don't we have another reporting location near Valley Stream? I'll just say I had between 13-15 inches lol
-
I wish the NWS was much more strict with who it allowed to use their satellite data and maps. For example people without met degrees should not be allowed access to their data and should not be allowed to broadcast it. Think about it this way- is a person without a medical degree allowed to operate? The standards should be the same.
-
About 13" here I rate it as a C-
-
wow and you ended the season with just half an inch?
-
Still no explanation of whats causing this massive heatwave, nor what it would take to neutralize it....
