That wind is what I remember most. It felt like being at the north pole for a day!
-
Hit 72 at JFK and 73 at Newark. I'm hoping we hit 80 this weekend!
-
But at least they have stated these aren't meant to be used to predict the weather, it's for use by the energy markets.
-
Wow, that sounds comical lol. That was such a short lived period of cold too, I bet by the time he got all the winter gear off the arctic air had already started to leave.
-
I like mild Novembers like this because they often mean things trend the other way in December.
-
We're likely going to have a big sea wall built to prevent this kind of damage from happening again. Trillion dollar project.
-
gusts were pretty uniform through the area.... 85-90 mph, highest gust recorded was 96 mph
-
since 2013 here. The early sea breeze sucks, all it does it make things worse with higher humidity without the joy of 100 degree heat.
-
Lost it at 6:30 pm just as it was about to make landfall. It came back at 7:30 pm the next day-- my longest power outage here ever.
-
Don if this lasts long enough maybe we can compare it to the amazing heat of November 14-15 1993 which also occurred right around the marathon
-
Over 40 inches close to 50 inches on Long Island though... 30-35 inches in the big storm, and a memorable heavy snow that caused a crain to fall in NYC and some nickle and dime events in February and then the Valentine's Day below zero outbreak.
-
How does this warmup compare to November 14-15 1993? That also occurred right around the NYC Marathon and was my all time favorite.
-
Perfect reason to extend the baseball season!
-
November 15, 1993 was one of the greatest fall memories I've ever had. 72 on the day of the marathon and 80 degrees the day after.
-
I wonder if this November will be like December 2015 a month early.
-
The rain/snow line is concerning

Occasional Thoughts on Climate Change
LibertyBell replied to donsutherland1's topic in Climate Change
What if it ends up being a quadruple dip this time? Would that be unprecendented? Interesting why we don't see triple dip el ninos-- or maybe we have further back in the record? -
I hate that the media keeps calling it "Superstorm." There is no such thing as a "Superstorm" scientifically speaking, it isn't defined in any text. Some of the insurance companies tried to screw people over because this wasn't officially a hurricane at landfall. Honestly who cares-- it was a hurricane when it caused the most damage and it only became not a hurricane a couple of hours before landfall. I'm so glad the NHC decided to change the way it handles these. Bloomberg was ridiculous in that he never understood that. I want a separate definition for temperate hurricanes vs tropical hurricanes. Because people respond to the word "hurricane" with more urgency just like they do to the word "blizzard" (which is why we need to separate a ground blizzard from a synoptic blizzard-- which should be any storm that is predicted to drop a foot or more of snow.)

Right in 2011 we had the big heatwave in July, then the earthquake in August and then then historic rains in August with Irene and then a big weekend stalled front and then Snowtober just before Halloween. In 2012 we had Sandy just before Halloween and then the big snowstorm on November 7th which dropped 8 inches here and 14 inches in Freehold. Lots of downed tree branches and limbs because the snow was so wet. I remember in both early season snows, LGA had white rain while it was snowing at JFK. Wind from the north and northeast off the Sound made it milder on the north shore.

How is it that Forky's posts always get the most different kinds of emojis? He maxed out with all 6 different kinds here lol.
-
Chris do these above/below normal numbers mean anything when it depends on which site you're looking at? We can just say that the month was near normal overall.
-
Might be more like warm first 10 days of November, Don?
-
There's some kind of ground growth that's fiery red already. I wonder what it is. It looks like some kind of ground growing vine that's also made it up onto fences.
-
wow nice for the marathon and for peak foliage viewing!
-
Manhattan is not Queens (which is also part of the city.)
