Maybe the WSI Winter Severity Index is a good measure of it.
-
all day white out conditions! we've had some GREAT Januaries during the 2010s.
-
He was awesome, a good communicator.
-
Yep and it's the only thing we can say with any certainty at all by comparing the change of minimum temps over time, like over the decades. It also has no connection to snowfall because the 80s lacked big storms. Some of our best winters have had higher mins.
-
That sounds just like me! I had no internet back then (I dont think it even existed) and I didn't even have cable tv so it was all about the major networks plus 5, 9, 11 and PBS.
-
The only real conclusions we can draw are that single digit and below zero lows have become much less frequent.
-
Thanks, I'm looking for MJX low temps since they're usually the lowest in that region.
-
Must've had a bed time curfew before 11 lol. During the hourly newscast he'd come on around 10:15 and say he was waiting for the latest models to come in but he thought that the amounts would be higher than originally forecast. And then he came on at 10:45 and that's exactly what the models showed and he upped his predictions to match.
-
Millville is MJX isn't it?
-
Do you remember how spot on he was in 1993-94? The night before all of those two dozen events he said that it would be colder than forecast and we'd get more snow and frozen and he was right every time.
-
One time it actually ended up right on precip amounts lol -
I love the NAM it hit a grand slam with Jan 2016 and a few other of our really big storms.
-
I mean I don't know about this specific airmass, but in general single digits happened much more easily in the 80s.
-
I'm not so sure. I remember the 80s. Single digits happened much more easily back then. Especially in January. Even our crappy winters had cold Januarys.
-
Toms River? They radiate really well
-
I'm not even sure Valentines Day 2016 was colder on Long Island, I think only NYC and points west got to 0 and below.
-
will any snowcover be around do you think?
-
did central park and the airports make it into the teens?
-
The best is when multiple people are doing play by plays and one person says it's trending west! while the other guy says it's trending east! in back to back posts. It's all about location, location, location isn't it. Everyone "sees" what they want to see.
-
see where that cluster is to the west of the operational track? I bet thats where this storm will eventually go
-
Maybe we need to create new models for east coast storms like we have specialty hurricane models for TCs?
-
see 1988-89 Also why the hell do these models always make Long Island seem like it never snows there?
-
yup 2-4 inches of snow that doesn't mix or changeover is highly underrated.
-
I think most would be fine with 2-4 inches of snow
-
One of the best storms I've ever seen, like a half version of Jan 2016, all day zero visibility! Wasnt that the storm that set the surge record in Boston too?
