  1. a couple of times we've seen back to back single digit snowfall winters and even three out of four seasons in one stretch
  2. it's a flawed record because just a few years before that new york city had 100 inches of snow but because it was measured in a different part of the city (The Battery I think, where it usually snows less than at the park) it doesn't get taken into account. Real snowfall history of NYC and PHL goes back to the 1700s and both have recorded multiple seasons of 100 inch snowfall seasons.
  3. it's a shame because records like that have been kept in our area going back to the 1700s and there have been snowier years than the ones in central park recorded history, as a matter of new york city likely had 100 inches of snow just a few years before that in the mid 1860s
  4. Don, when you have time could you possibly list the 3 airport plus NYC totals since this might have been our last accumulations of the season? Thanks! I believe LGA is the only one over 3" (thanks to that December storm) and NYC is at 2.3" and JFK is now at 2.1" I believe EWR is over NYC's total but also under 3" These could be the new record snowfall totals at NYC and EWR (both breaking their records from 1972-73), but not at JFK or LGA I believe? The latter two still have their record low snowfall totals from 1972-73 intact?
  5. somehow both JFK and LGA eeked out 0.1" of snowfall there was also this measurement that made me laugh :3/14/2023,0500 PM, NY, SUFFOLK, 3.6 NE CALVERTON, , , 40.9619, -72.7158, SNOW_24, 0.001, INCH, COOP, 24 HOUR SNOWFALL, :3/14/2023,0400 PM, NY, SUFFOLK, MOUNT SINAI, , , 40.9331, -73.0192, SNOW_24, 0.001, INCH, COOP, 24 HOUR SNOWFALL, I take it 0.001 inch means Trace, as I also saw this: 3/14/2023,0400 PM, NY, NEW YORK (MANHATTAN), CENTRAL PARK, , , 40.7779, -73.9679, SNOW_24, 0.001, INCH, OFFICIAL NWS OBS, 24 HOUR SNOWFALL, Here are the JFK and LGA measurements :3/14/2023,0400 PM, NY, QUEENS, 1 S KENNEDY AIRPORT, , , 40.6445, -73.7799, SNOW_24, 0.10, INCH, OFFICIAL NWS OBS, 24 HOUR SNOWFALL, :3/14/2023,0400 PM, NY, QUEENS, NYC/LA GUARDIA, , , 40.7779, -73.8762, SNOW_24, 0.1, INCH, PUBLIC, 24 HOUR SNOWFALL, and the Newark trace :3/14/2023,0400 PM, NJ, ESSEX, 1 N NEWARK AIRPORT, , , 40.6962, -74.1729, SNOW_24, 0.001, INCH, OFFICIAL NWS OBS, 24 HOUR SNOWFALL, and the Bridgeport trace :3/14/2023,0400 PM, CT, FAIRFIELD, BRIDGEPORT AIRPORT, , , 41.1634, -73.1288, SNOW_24, 0.001, INCH, OFFICIAL NWS OBS, 24 HOUR SNOWFALL,
  6. well snowboy19 is the yin to snowman19's yang so that's no surprise.
  7. well at least you got more than Philly. Them ending up with only 0.3 inches of snow on the season is near historic.
  8. so you saw it hang on until nightfall? it ended here around 4.
  9. The pattern delivered and produced but this is not a pattern that would benefit the coast or the city, that much was apparent from the beginning. Besides a few blip model runs, this was always a N/W pattern. Too little too late-- the theme of the entire winter.
  10. I noticed the sound is at its widest point north of there plus being in the middle of Long Island has some advantage over being on either shoreline (elevation?)
  11. Yeah like 3 of us said 5 inches at the same time which was really weird LOL triple match! Why does that area always jackpot? Must be something other than sheer coincidence.
  12. Maybe this would have been 5 inches somewhere on Long Island if it had happened at night. I just said that in the previous post before reading yours....MATCH lol
  13. at this rate Brookhaven to Coram is going to have like 5 inches lol MATCH lol
  14. Yep, I would say trace too, my roof did grow some white hair for awhile but other than that nada
  15. Meanwhile some us thought it was going to be at least 50/50 that NYC would keep preserve the chances of a new record. 0.6" in day time snow this time of year in this scenario in NYC was never going to be easy to get.
  16. yes big dryslot from NYC to Nassau County also needs to be factored on, it was sticking earlier when it was snowing hard and it lightened up a lot around 4
  17. should be at least a T the area from NYC to Nassau County has been under a dryslot for awhile now though
  18. it's like moss, it always sticks to the north side lol
  19. it's about 4 inches more to the north of here
  20. Yeah this isn't VD 2007 when whole highways were shut down lol
  21. I'd say that's about 3-4 inches, what do you think?
  22. Man that place sucks, I'm glad I have 2,000 feet over them lol even if I'm south of them...got a cam for where I-80 and I-81 meet? Or a cam near Lake Harmony?
  23. wow nice, we can pretend this is the storm that gets you to 50 inches and think of it as a great winter lol
  24. it's fun to see it falling and blowing like this
