Maybe it's time to have a lower level of alert, let's call it "State of Preparedness" -
They really should only issue it for south jersey if anywhere, but the whole idea of "state of emergency" should only be issued for something like Sandy. Maybe they need to have a lower level of alert? Did they ever think of that? And they could call it "State of Preparedness". Leave the "State of Emergency" only for historic and truly life threatening conditions.

less toxic chemicals in our bodies too. Tech is finally making it down from NASA onto the level of mainstream users now.
-
it's also a weak storm with a very narrow area of precip correct? A more normal sized storm would easily get heavy snow into our area on that track
-
where does that strong SE ridge go in times like this lol
-
Yup, lots of problems on the roads. 6.5" I think.... the earliest 6" storm there on record I believe (here we had 8" on November 7, 2012 a week after Sandy, and 14" in Freehold.)
-
Wasn't that the storm that was supposed to change to rain but never did?
-
What a waste of cold air and moisture lol, the GFS kept saying we would get more than that-- meanwhile Toms River (50 miles south of here) got 2 feet of snow.
-
Yep and you know what else we can do-- stop using pesticides. We have the tech right now to use drones with onboard lasers to kill weeds without harming any other form of life at all. They're already started to deploy them but it should be happening more quickly.
-
we could still get what we got in that storm (and that was also a daytime storm). we got 1.5" on 2/6/2010 so that's possible again today Staten Island (at least the southern part of it) got up to 6" while NYC only saw a trace lol.
-
I can't wait until AI is running the entire planet and silly human politics no longer exists.
-
I'd love to see OES on the south shore of LI, it's only happened a few times in my life. We had 1.5" on 2/6/2010.
-
If by mini you mean less than 25% of that, then sure
-
this is awesome, I wish we had these back in the 80s when we had 1-3 inches of snow without any winds
-
why is NJ so damn long? Sometimes I wish Long Island was east of Atlantic City lol, especially with storms like this.
-
I'm very close to the Brown 80% area, maybe just a few miles northeast of there lol, so let's say, 78% zone? I guess 2" is a good number for me also.
-
If El Nino's are supposed to be mild in December, what differentiates the exceptions like 2002-03 and 2009-10 which were quite wintry in December? Is it just about the Atlantic side blocking? If so, why do we consider el nino more important? We can eliminate the influence of el nino (outside of the stronger subtropical jet) and solely focus on Atlantic side blocking as the major component in colder weather, at least for us.
-
Lol and here the media is (specifically Lee Goldberg) saying we return to winter and cold weather by early February. Are we looking at sunny and mild? That's not bad at all-- ABSOLUTELY ANYTHING IS BETTER THAN RAIN!
-
But thats happening anyway and the resulting sea level rise will be horrific I like the idea of creating a pump to constantly mix up the water, but the environmental issues (effect on sea life) that would cause probably wouldn't be good either.
-
I wouldn't mind a January like 2009 had. No major snow events but the entire month was cold, with minor 1-2 inch events once or twice a week the entire month and so cold that the snow cover lasted for most of the month too.
-
any reports from the Poconos, Walt?

Extended summer stormlover74 future snow hole banter thread 23
LibertyBell replied to BxEngine's topic in New York City Metro
It'll be interesting to see if 2024 hits that +1.5C mark. Some are saying we aren't going back under it and others are saying next year's la nina will get us down, but only just barely, to +1.4C. Either way, we're in a new era now. -
A double edged sword because algae blooms can be toxic also (see red tide). And fertilizers are also draining into the waterways resulting in more of these toxic algae blooms and causing die offs (and are also toxic to us and our pets.)
-
I don't know what his reasoning is, but Lee Goldberg has the mix line all the way up to southern Monmouth County. He said the best snowfall will be in inland Monmouth and Ocean counties about 5-10 miles away from the ocean as well as Middlesex County. He said within a mile or two of the ocean in those counties may only see 1-2 inches of snow while 5-10 miles inland of there could see up to 6 inches of snow.
-
Is there a snowfall measuring station in Mt Sinai? I remember there was at one time, it would be interesting to see what its long term snowfall average is.
