  1. The one that set the surge records in Boston and was like a 50% version of the Jan 2016 blizzard (because it had three hours of verified blizzard conditions at JFK, while Jan 2016 had six). We had white out conditions all day during that storm in Jan 2018! I think that was one of two major snow storms that winter. Those 30 year December averages are going to be significantly higher when they get calculated at the end of the month.
  2. Ice in the Poconos? that's going to mean bad driving! I'm going to be coming back Sunday afternoon, I hope conditions are better by then.
  3. very little chance of snow down to the coast but there's still a chance for inland areas....I will be in the Poconos that week so it's all good!
  4. I wonder when the last time was that we had a cold December lol, they dont seem to happen all that much.
  5. It's comical how they twist and turn with each model run. And even the south shore here got about 8 inches.....and the snow lasted for over a week. Nothing to whine about over.
  6. mild Novembers have historically been linked to snowy seasons, we had six out of six up between 55-56 and 93-94. A lot better than getting a prewinter snowfall at any rate. as for la ninas; some of our snowiest Decembers and Januarys have happened during La Ninas. I like La Nina for the early part of the season a lot better than El Ninos. If you want to look at what's really going on, it all has to do with that warm water off the north Pacific. But the bridge jumping is hilarious, the 5-10 period is the one to look at and the people who twist and turn with each model run are hilarious (as if these models are even remotely accurate at that time range.)
  7. for me it's 2016 (but 95-96 and 02-03 too)
  8. Looks like a general 1-2 inches across the city and Long Island...but I saw those reports were between 8 and 9 am and we still had heavy rain going on after that (even into the afternoon)! any updated reports on rain and wind, Don?
  9. tell that to the people that had flooding and water in their basements
  10. well only one of them was snow lol. Some of my friends are already sick and tired of winter and want spring to come already....I was told dont tell me what the weather is going to be unless it's going to be above 50 degrees and sunny every day!
  11. this is awesome and has been going on for over a year now, warmth to the north and cold to the south (compare Maine temps vs Florida)
  12. no, as Don said, it's the blocking that will decide what will happen.....thats why the first half of January is being targeted.
  13. right that is the period I'm looking at also. Anyone who thought we would have another snowstorm in December was foolish. That's not how our climatology works. The period I've been looking at is a little later than yours though, between the 5th and the 10th. Panic is for the weak-minded.
  14. Yeah this is normal now lol. The warmth more than the 10" pre solstice snowfall....
  15. SSW is the biggest single event that can change a pattern, there's usually a 2-4 week delay between the event and the change, right Chris?
  16. Maybe there's some small hail? I heard something that sounded like sleet but can't be sleet at these temps
  17. I used to live on the 14th floor of an apartment building in Brooklyn on Ocean Parkway ....I saw amazing sunrises from the balcony
  18. why not do some Christmas surfing? I dont think Christmas and surfing have ever been used in the same sentence before (for our area at any rate lol)
  19. awesome I'm getting my wind fix here and my snow fix by having YES on and they're showing the April 9 1996 Yankee home opener.
  20. Yeah but wasn't that all from one storm? We had the same thing in Jan 2011 but I believe both Dec 2003 and Jan 2011 were from one storm with a lull in between A 12 or 24 hr gap sounds like two different storms. That's why I brought up Feb 1994 that was two different storms.
