fwiw climate change policy wont work unless humanity changes the entire way it exists....this all started with the industrial revolution and won't end until it ends.

we need carbon taxes and in a hurry

1990 - Fair weather prevailed across the nation for the second day in a row. Freezing temperatures were reported in the Middle Atlantic Coast Region in the wake of an early spring snowstorm. Afternoon highs were again in the 70s and 80s in the southeastern U.S., and for the ninth day in a row, temperatures in the southwestern U.S. reached the 90s. (The National Weather Summary) Did this snowstorm get up to our region, Tony?

there is some weird kind of power problem here, my power has gone out twice already. sunny and dry which is awesome weather though I love deep blue skies

dude, are you a vampire?

I wish we could bottle this for the rest of spring and summer

the earth was probably ice free through a majority of its history....which isn't a good thing for us when it happens again

I believe NYC will be in that 55-60 zone by 2040 or 2050 at the latest

I dont if what I saw was a lightning flash or a transformer blew but my lights went out last night at 1:14 am and came back on at 1:16 am same time as I saw the bright flash...the flash was west of here.

you sound like an energy trader

why do his energy clients care or want there to be no ACC? because they lose money with warmer winters? awesome, I hope it continues....nothing better than watching a bunch of crooked traders lose all their money.

I know man, I rather would have seen the Northern Lights too lol

I've always wondered if there is even a subtle connection between big solar storms and weather on Earth. Regardless, this seems to be the year of pronounced solar activity. If this continues into next year, I wonder if we might see something amazing during the total solar eclipse coming up then.

Going tomorrow when it's going to be better weather. I think the clouds would have blocked me from seeing them last night regardless. If it's something that truly spectacular it will be seen from anywhere (barring clouds of course), the November 2001 Leonid storm was truly spectacular as was Comet Hale Bopp in 1997. Both were easily visible from Lynbrook. With the northern lights though you do need to be away from light pollution even for a really good display.

you're excited!

honestly I would MUCH rather have clear skies last night to see that gorgeous northern lights display the rest of the CONUS has been seeing.

anyone in our area see any northern lights last night? I noticed there was a period of clearing between midnight and 3 am last night.

I wonder if this entire year is going to be full of this activity (though they do always seem to be stronger around the equinoxes)

wow they also had a big snowfall in March 1994?

too much cloud pollution

Thanks for the map I have been looking for something like that but I think it's way underdone for elevated regions of eastern PA, no way does MPO only average 30-36 inches of snow, it's at least twice that. Eastern PA near or over 2000 feet has to average at least 60 inches of snow and probably more like 70-75.

even though that was a mild winter, aside from the February HECS it was known for late season snows, as it had JFK's latest accumulating snowfall on record, April 19-20, 1983, 1.5 inches

1989 - Low pressure off the coast of Virginia brought heavy rain to the Middle Atlantic Coast States, and heavy snow to the Northern Appalachians. Cape Hatteras NC was soaked with 5.20 inches of rain in 24 hours, and snowfall totals in Vermont ranged up to 12 inches. Winds gusted to 52 mph at New York City. (Storm Data) (The National Weather Summary) 1990 - The storm system which produced heavy snow in the Lower Missouri Valley the previous day, spread heavy snow across parts of the Upper Ohio Valley and the Middle Atlantic Coast Region. Snowfall totals of 2.2 inches at Philadelphia PA and 2.4 inches at Atlantic City NJ were records for the date. Up to six inches of snow blanketed southern Ohio. In the Middle Atlantic Coast Region, snow coated the blossoms of cherry trees which had bloomed in 80 degree weather the previous week. (Storm Data) (The National Weather Summary) I dont remember either of these storms, Tony, did either of them produce accumulating snow in our area? I only remember the April 1990 minor event.

Sunday is going to be awesome, get this Pacific crap out of here

that was the one with the pink morning snow and 40:1 ratios!
