  1. so the warmer it gets on Saturday the better the chances for snow Sunday night is the way I see it
  2. dont these things balance out anyway so wouldn't it be natural for an extreme -PNA to be followed by an extreme +PNA?
  3. wow I remember that's what we did in high school back in the late 80s ah those dot matrix printers lol they were LOUD I got my first computer set up with the DMP included for 1300 back in December 1987
  4. Is this why we didnt get snow with this coastal storm despite the favorable offshore track?
  5. isnt that California drought keeping the ridge going? Maybe it will stay there for the entire month?
  6. Probably- last year winter ended around this time too
  7. I was 4- going to be 5 that year. All I remember about 1978 is a lot of white outside and icicles hanging just outside my window, I lived in Brooklyn at the time near Prospect Park.
  8. greatest back end to winter ever
  9. yes and somehow 2/2013 started as rain here while it was snowing east of here, go figure lol
  10. I heard something hitting my windows but cant see anything outside, it's too dark. This is why I ignore night time events.
  11. 26"? I thought Islip measured 18" in that, like they did for the Jan 1978 surprise blizzard? At JFK we had 12 straight hours of true blizzard conditions in Jan 2016, which is why I'll always rank that far ahead of every other snowstorm and over 30 inches of snow, more than twice what they got in February 1978. We do best here in strong el ninos (Feb 1983, PD2, Jan 2016)....Jan 1996 being the exception of course (we also do well in la ninas that come after el ninos).
  12. Jan 2016 is the new king here first and maybe last time I get 30 inches of snow in a storm lol
  13. so we did have two big February storms that year? Sort of like February 2003 Love those strong el ninos for our biggest snowstorms
  14. Did we have 6"+ in that? I dont think the snow drought really ended until the following year
  15. I love math but was told it really wasn't that important anymore because those kinds of robotic calculations can just be done by computer now. It really isn't a sign of intelligence so don't lose any sleep over it, it just involves doing the same repetitive stuff over and over again (which is why you dont see that kind of question on intelligence tests.)
  16. thats okay they have computer models to do all that stuff now lol
  17. I remember going to that hospital in 1996 after a car accident on I-80 (I wasn't the driver in case that matters.) Really nice people there. Haven't been there since, I wonder if the same people still work there.
  18. its awesome this is exactly why meteorologists should not trust models and use their own knowledge
  19. good this is awesome and enhances our chances for mid February snow
  20. mine said 30.60 I think his needs recalibrating it was not anywhere near 30.80... I keep mine set to inches I dont do millibars
  21. could get a wintry storm before that pattern change too
  22. it hit 103 on August 10th 2001 I think it was?
  23. winter ends on the equinox, that will NEVER change
  24. yet another fake concocted season. I'm a big believer in astronomy it's the only science that makes exact predictions that are always correct. Spring starts on the equinox, period, end of discussion.
  25. I know that in March sun angle becomes a factor, but it's no factor at all in any part of February. The city itself has seen a 20 inch snowstorm as late as the last few days of the month pretty recently (2010) and we had a 26-28 inch snowstorm here in SW Long Island with PD2 in 2003.
