  1. that makes for an interesting experiment in different blocking scenarios and different times of the season I always thought KC-NYC and CHI-BOS comparisons were worthwhile since they seem to have similar snowfall averages. The most stark difference is in 10" or more storm totals, wow!
  2. is he chasing the twister, or is the twister chasing him?
  3. right, it would probably have to be April 1982 like cold, which I don't even know if it's possible anymore that late in the season. But with how severe that cold was, even if that had happened a month later, it would have probably snowed.
  4. that sounds like the best area for hail because it's where the sea breeze front sets up.
  5. it's hailing here again it actually sounds like pebbles hitting my windows, the funny thing is the rain is really light though and the winds are really strong
  6. yeah we had that hail about 10-15 min ago along with blinding rain, it was pretty exciting. I think I remember the event you mentioned, and there was one on the north sure of Queens too....something like hours of hail with snow plows out lol.
  7. I was wondering if it would be possible to get that kind of snow here this late in the season with a direct shot of arctic shot here instead of having one go to the west and then come here later on. But those have become so rare that it might be a once in 30 year event now.
  8. the thunder and hail came back along with the rain but not nearly as heavy as before
  9. and just like that it's over....that's why I dont care much for these kinds of storms, they just dont last long enough
  10. yes! Thats what I saw and heard! along with the blindingly heavy rain. It looked more like dime sized to me though
  11. whats the record for hail size all time in NYC and nearby area (like Long Island, Nassau County, etc?) Also in terms of duration (how long it lasts and how much can accumulate at one time?)
  12. this is definitely hail I see crashing into my windows here and extremely heavy rain like a waterfall!
  13. wow it's raining here so hard I can't see anything outside well except this new waterfall right outside my windows lol and sounds like hail!
  14. it goes with the NWS forecasts for a hot May
  15. How is it that Kansas City averages less snow than us during the winter but is more likely to get more snow than us now?
  16. been pretty cloudy the last 2 days
  17. and nothing for anywhere in the Poconos, like Lake Harmony or Albrightsville?
  18. car companies are on board to be fully renewable within 10-15 years and on top of that even China has committed to being carbon neutral by 2060. And that's the last one to the party.
  19. Thanks Don, do you have data from Mt Pocono for May 9-10, 2020 also, to compare to 1977 on the same dates? I think it was around 2" but not sure.
  20. Another idea I had was maybe we could do a weighed average? Keep the 30 year average but weigh the last 10 years twice as much as the 20 years prior.....that would give priority to the changing climate.
  21. Looks like we might have sustained warmth starting in the first week of May, so not far away.
