Looking forward to the 2 football games next Sunday, a rematch of last year's AFC conference title game (the team that wins that game will win the SB IMO-- go Bengals!) and the NFC conference title game. The Eagles are lucky that the Niners are on their third string QB, if it was either of the other two QB I would favor the Niners to win even on the road (they are better in all phases of the game, including defense), but because Brock Purdy is their QB I don't think they can pull this one out.

Or March 1990 which I enjoyed more (more long duration heat earlier in the month.)
-
It also has to do with Miller B's though and how those storms strengthen a bit too late for us on the western side and are better east and northeast of us.
-
It's more than just about the weather though. The Maine lobster business is all but finished and we've just about depleted all our fisheries. The lobsters are going north into Maritime Canada.
-
oh that could be endless =\
-
Yep and actually Suffolk County is more like NE too.
-
That was 1920s and prior. Maybe 1910s and prior when NYC averaged 35 inches of snow a year and that was without accounting for compaction.
-
Thats true but mostly for NJ and away from the ocean (ironically enough), here on the south shore we don't see much convection (very much like the Florida beaches.)
-
Walt, didn't Philly also only get a T in 1997-98?
-
Our winters aren't that long, Met winter ends as of March 1st and it's rare to get anything significant after the equinox anyway.
-
2001-02 was warmer than 1997-98 here
-
Yeah NYC has more of a midatlantic climate, NE is like another world.
-
It's not all about warmer waters though, air circulation moves west to east so if we can get a nice downsloping westerly flow it will overpower whatever the Atlantic is doing.

That image is a little blurry, I had to upload a lowres version of the original because the original was over the 1.95 mb file size limit (it's around 2.5 mb).
-
There's that too, but I also noticed when it gets very humid I have problems breathing. But yea all this RAID and Bug Barrier can't be good either. I've been trying to really limit it since I have so many different kinds of birds that come into my garden now. Even these parrots and woodpeckers which seem to have set up residence here.
-
Memories lol There's a plus side.... after the early 90s came 93-94 and 95-96 and after the late 90s came 02-03 and what followed in subsequent winters.
-
I remember that but that's the first time I've ever heard of sound effect getting into Manhattan lol. The 30" from Jan 2016 was a once in a lifetime experience and completely wiped out my memory of Jan 2015, which to me was a superior winter to 13-14.
-
what I liked last year is with much less rain there were also much less bugs. It was the first time I didn't have to spray, with all that rain I have to spray everything, all the borders around my house, my pond, garden, everything. I hate nasty mosquitoes and giant spiders and creepy centipedes, I dont want NY to become like Texas. I noticed my health was better and a lot less allergies with the drier air last summer. It actually felt like the drier and hotter summers we had growing up here.
-
it has felt tropical all night That Jan 1932 record is going to be broken, I can literally feel it.
-
why was he getting beaten up lol
-
He probably hated the humidity and all the bugs.
-
It looked like the Alps used to look in 1996 lol. It even beat PD2 although that was our previous record holder In Jan 1996 the snow drifts were so high the SUVs were getting stuck in them all over town. It all melted a week later in a flooding rainstorm and roof collapses though. That was a snowy winter with thaws in between, which is utterly fine.
-
actually we dont need the rain and definitely dont want it. I remember the good old days when we averaged less than 40 inches of rain a year hopefully we're returning to that with drier springs and summers.
-
hopefully it's hot and dry I'm done with rain for the entire year
-
let me know if a tornado pops up lol
