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!
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.
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
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.
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.
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?)
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.
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.
