  1. Tony please check these: Lows:EWR: 28 (2021)NYC: 22 (2019)LGA: 29 (2021)JFK: 27 (1964) Are you sure about the 22 in NYC on this date in 2019? I don't remember anything that extreme and I think EWR and the other airports would have record lows in 2019 on this date too if the NYC number was correct, Tony.
  2. imagine if it was all snow lol, we'd jackpot
  3. Thats a very interesting combo, I hadn't thought of the 70/10 duo, what do you think the reason is? Strong winds?
  4. No because there have been no ice caps for 85% of the planet's history.
  5. Would you be surprised if I told you that the Amazon rain forest controls its own climate and rainfall patterns?
  6. we will hopefully be an interstellar or intergalactic species well before then
  7. He does write extremely well, but one small point of disagreement, I strongly believe in a completely transparent government and full access to all knowledge. Look, if humanity sucks that badly, it probably does not deserve to exist.
  8. it only gets worse when pollen season kicks in =\
  9. I think it's good we get the rain now, it gives us water in the bank for what might happen later.
  10. One of them was in the middle of the month it was lost among the other storms. Or it could have been February 2010. Those two winters were confusing with the large number of storms. If there's any winter that calls for naming of winter storms, it's those winters.
  11. I think this is what happened! Everything was fine in 2020 when the roof was redone and the gutters were installed.
  12. Either February 2010 or January 2011. Probably the latter.
  13. we didn't get a coastal at all this winter and we get one NOW?
  14. Yes, I felt bad for JM, that was the most ridiculous rain snow line I have EVER seen! Two other ones which were interesting were in the January 1994 ice storm and VD 2007, where the ice line was oriented to our east so that Oceanside was all frozen while east of there changed to rain. The March 1993 superstorm also had interesting snowfall amounts-- Oceanside and points west were 10-12 inches while amounts drastically dropped east of Oceanside.
  15. Lows: EWR: 16 (1940)NYC: 12 (1888)LGA: 17 (1940)JFK: 22 (2014) Wow 1888 was still so cold this late. I didn't realize 2014's record at JFK was so high. 1912 - Residents of Kansas City began to dig out from a storm produced 25 inches of snow in 24 hours. The snowfall total was nearly twice that of any other storm of modern record in Kansas City before or since that time. A record 40 inches of snow fell during the month of March that year, and the total for the winter season of 67 inches was also a record. By late February of that year Kansas City had received just six inches of snow. Olathe KS received 37 inches of snow in the snowstorm, establishing a single storm record for the state of Kansas. (23rd-24th) (The Kansas City Weather Almanac) (The Weather Channel) What kind of crazy pattern dumped 40 inches of snow in KC in that month? NYC has NEVER had 40 inches of snow in a month!! Olathe had 37 inches of snow in a single storm? OMG-- nothing like that has EVER happened here and they are in the middle of the country, not near any large body of water at all! HOW?!
  16. Yes I'm worried about it right now as we're getting more frequent rains. I had my entire roof and drainage system replaced a few years ago, but it's still happening.
  17. The generic crickets are very annoyingly noisy though it's been said you can gauge the temperature by timing the interval between their chirps.
  18. These are prehistoric creatures, one of the first to walk on land (after amphibians.) In ancient times these were even larger-- what a horror show. I think animals were much larger back then because the oxygen content of the air was higher. What do they eat?
  19. Yes strangely enough almost exactly on the same days as a nearly identical heatwave (with almost the same temperatures) happened in April 1976. However you can't use that kind of coincidence as an analog, as those two summers were radically different. 2002 had one of my all time favorite summers. And in a developing moderate el nino no less.
  20. We had this storm in February 2010 I think it was-- could have been January 2011 too, don't remember because both those winters were great. We had 5 inches of snow in Lynbrook and Valley Stream and JM in Long Beach was going back and forth with a mix. I remember us watching it on radar too and it clearly showed the mixing line on the barrier islands but it didn't make it up to us.
  21. Do you remember April 2010? The earliest ever 90 degree reading in the city and close to JFK and Long Beach was in the upper 60s lol. I think April 2002 was hot even down on the barrier islands though.
  22. These people are so funny. And Ant with his *it's still March* as if the weather in the last week of March is anything like the first week of March LOL
  23. I find that expanding drought feedback very intriguing, I think that will be a BIG factor this summer.
  24. Probably, but it could also be raining next weekend. I do think we'll get 70+ here by the first week of April.
  25. in no way shape or form is it winter LOL
