Refresher snow & obs between ~midnight and Noon Sat Feb 17 2024

too bad you're not in Lynbrook, this area will do nicely, usually our climate resembles Monmouth County more than the rest of Long Island lol -

https://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/outlooks/hurricane2003/August/background_information.html Accumulated Cyclone Energy Index by the way on a related topic, mets in the west pac have been talking about modifying the SS scale to add a Cat 6 for super typhoons of 192 mph or higher. that reminds me of way back when in the original tornado Fujita scale there was an F6 category for tornadoes from 320 mph to the speed of sound (640 mph). it was dropped because no tornado ever reached F6, but for super typhoons in the west pac, there are a few that have reached 192 mph or higher (and in the east pac too.)

with the dewpoint that low it could even get into the upper 20s. temps wont be a problem, I just wish the storm was moving a little more slowly. -

Biggest issue might be speed of storm, the accumulating snow is likely over by sunrise with only flurries after that. -
Better yet let's conquer Cheapskate, Virginia and seize their name?

for some reason I read this as CPK is Cheapskate, Virginia

and assuming all else is equal, whose snow would be gone more quickly? -
the AMO warm phase can become extended with warmer SST, we dont know if the AMO behaves the same way now as it did 50 years ago. or if a negative AMO would have the same effect it did back then
-
will these warmer SST lead to an extended +AMO?
-
yes we love la ninas after el ninos for this, hopefully high ACE but would love for the storms to stay offshore like they did in 1995.

wow sounds like January 1996 1899 - Washington D.C. received 1.26 inches of rain in six hours atop a snow cover more than 30 inches deep making it the soggiest day of record. (Sandra and TI Richard Sanders - 1987)

it's hard to be excited about clippers, you can never rely on them

I forgot about 2010-11 that was another great winter that was amazing for a large part of the country, though not as good farther south as 2002-03 was.
-
and some high winds too the flurries only lasted a few minutes?
-
How much? and for how long lol

That's what was special about PD2 and 2002-03 was snowy right from December through April. A throwback winter just like 1995-96 (which from what I remember was also exceptional in the Midwest and East Coast. We all had a "return to winter" arctic shot in February that was historic.)
-
2002-03.... that's such an underrated winter that did well for a lot of people. PD2 was also extremely underrated, rarely do you see a storm dump over 2 feet of snow in Baltimore, JFK AND BOSTON. Those kind of widespread snowstorms seem to have become an endangered species. That's what was special about PD2 and 2002-03 was snowy right from December through April.

The funny thing was-- being about 20 miles east of Central Park, it was only 13 inches here, about half of what Central Park had. I don't know if you remember the event in April that year, but that actually had higher snowfall rates here than the February storm did.

I love tracking in real time, this is far better than just model reading.
