  1. what? that was only because of warmer ground temps, it was mostly snow here on the south shore.
  2. JFK had more than them from what I heard
  3. It was mostly snow on the south shore here too, it's just that it didn't really stick much. Same temps around 32-33
  4. Yep ended around 6:30 am here it was nice to get mostly snow, I didn't even hear one ping lol.
  5. no one can read this, it's microfont, please just post the link
  6. what are the numbers for all the airports? I didn't see what they had for jfk, lga, ewr, etc
  7. Let's get the futility record because nothing else about this season is worth remembering. Glad to see eastern Long Island got close to warning criteria. It was all or mostly snow here too, but the temps were just above freezing so mostly just slush. A little accumulated around the edges of my driveway and edges of the sidewalks and streets but nothing in the middle and the roads didn't even get salted here. But it's nice to know that what fell was mostly snow and it did cover all the grass, cartops, rooftops, etc.
  8. It was around 32-33 for the entire storm and it was 80-90 percent snow here for its entirety (and the part that wasn't snow was white rain but there was barely any of that), the storm ended at around 6:30 am here I slept for a few hours in the middle of it but when I went to sleep it was snowing pretty hard and when I woke up it was snowing pretty hard too. The winds were northeast, not southeast, so that helped a lot. I saw further east they weren't northeast.
  9. That kind of pattern works out much more often in March than it does in December
  10. by the way it changed back to snow here lol when it lightens up it's rain when it gets heavier it's snow. this is just like a spring storm
  11. Same thing happened in 97-98 too and I'm sure many other seasons.
  12. funny thing is it never even sleeted here, like not even one ping....it just went from snow to rain lol
  13. it may be gone from the grass by then too
  14. if there is anything left by 1 am lol
  15. Yep I think it's here although not sure since not much is happening.
  16. only every six hours 7 am 1 pm 7 pm 1 am
  17. Just saw him! He's in Queens now and showed the snow sticking to the streets--well slushy at least lol.
  18. who did they send there? they dont even do coverage this late at night
  19. Brooklyn is close enough though, do you think 1972-73 ranks right up there with 2001-02 and 1997-98 if you combine both warmth and low snowfall? I remember hearing there was a big ice storm that season.
  20. I just checked outside, we have kids playing in the streets. It's acually snowing hard enough that you don't have to look in the streetlights to see it and it's accumulating everywhere now, in the streets and driveways too, except it's slushy not white. Solid snowcover on cartops and grass and rooftops of course.
  21. That could quite possibly be more historic than 2001-02 but I wasn't alive then lol. Were you in Oceanside for 1997-98 and 2001-02 too? How would you rank the three? I guess I would toss 2011-12 in there too but we had over an inch in October so I keep that apart from the record low snowfall winters.
  22. It's probably more like 01-02. Some notes about 97-98, from what I've read from others who remember that year better, it was actually more than 0.5 in DJF but Central Park as usual didn't measure properly. Both LGA and JFK were higher than 0.5 in 1997-98 for DJF. This winter was probably more than 0.4 too, we had two measurable snowfalls, one in December and one in February, the total was probably closer to 0.6 to 0.8 between those two events. This winter is more like 2001-02 anyway, a lot warmer than 1997-98 and almost as warm as 2001-02, which is the low benchmark winter of my lifetime.
