  1. This is excellent Don, but wouldn't this apply to the entire winter? I made the following chart 37 or above-- doesn't accumulate 33-36 5:1 30-33 10:1 28-30 12:1 25-33 15:1 20-25 20:1 15-20 25:1 under 15 40:1 Only the January 2004 event fulfilled the highest snow ratio category.
  2. what do you think of the 2-3 inches right down to JFK lol it reminds me of January 2008 (but that was in January!) when we had snow here but all sides of us were raining lol Busted heavy snow warning, the last one ever issued.
  3. I like how there's a stripe of 2-3 inches that goes right down to JFK lol
  4. I'll be happy if it flips over by 2 am
  5. Lee Goldberg on what happens after the March 13-14 noreaster, he just said "This is winter's last chance to do something. After this big storm, the weather looks benign and will warm up."

  7. I'm dubious of 1-3 inch amounts with that low temp of 33.
  8. moral of the story : we need to lower air regulations to counteract climate change lol I remember a similar thing happened when the Clean Air Act took effect in the 70s.
  9. thats why you cant be too optimistic about this period, everything is down to nowcasting rain snow lines
  10. the 1960s were nowhere near as great as what we had in the 2000s. 4 straight 40"+ winters and then 09-10 and 10-11 back to back and then 13-14 and 14-15 back to back WOW
  11. that was different, after 93-94 and 95-96 were so amazing I didnt really care or even remember 96-97 through 01-02 The Yankees were winning lots of world series with the greatest baseball dynasty of all time too, so winter weather didn't matter that much after 96.
  12. it may be too late by the time it's our "turn" again expect rapidly declinining snowfall averages from the 2050s onwards.
  13. 1717 - On Fishers Island in Long Island Sound, 1200 sheep were discovered to have been buried under a snow drift for four weeks. When finally uncovered, one hundred sheep were still alive. (The Weather Channel) wow so we did get buried in 1717.....literally! Glad to hear they were rescued, I wonder how much snow fell here? also interesting how frigid 1996 was so late in the season and 2016 went back to warm lol
  14. big difference in mid march and later lol
  15. There was a norlun during the April 1982 blizzard? Wasn't there a norlun in February 1990 on eastern Long Island too?
  16. wouldn't that be mixed precip ? how about you draw a line that goes south from montauk and east from cape may and the point of their intersection is our benchmark :-)
  17. we really want the sun, as long as the sun is out temps in the 60s feel nice and warm with that April sunshine and none of that coastal wind tunnel either lol
  18. yep 4-6 inches here aka 5 inches lol NYC schools closed for 2 days lol
  19. The snowfall map for that storm is like a new englander's worst nightmare lol, the snow literally stopped at the border.
  20. You know that's why I don't like them lol A foot of snow in Patchogue and 4-5 inches for us. I guess April 1996 was like that too? We got 4-5 inches here and NYC got less than an inch. The Hamptons got a foot of snow and blizzard conditions all night!
  21. that was because of track, the storm cut across central Long Island, we were lucky to get a foot of heavy wet snow here in SW Nassau.
  22. Norluns interestingly enough favor areas both north and south of the area....so either coastal NJ or SNE
  23. interesting how norluns love the NJ Coast and NE but not us lol
  24. Does this remind you of March 2001 in some ways? I was curious how the models would handle that storm if it were to happen now.
  25. Yes, we've played this game before lol Would be way different a month or more ago
