    Yeah I remember that now too, and even that wasn't as great as the epic one we got the winter prior to that.
  2. LibertyBell
    yeah a real boring day in NE PA lol. Got a few drops of rain and some high winds...oh and it got really dark for a few minutes LOL
  3. LibertyBell
    I fondly remember that as the best storm we got all "winter." Actually besides the December and January events, did we even get anything else?

    Don how close did the mix get to the south shore? Not anywhere near JFK I surmise?

    Doctor Greg Postel is talking about it now, saying it's tracking west of the benchmark calling it a coastal hugger, saying it needs to track east of the benchmark to be snow for coastal areas.

    Oh yeah I remember that as the Albany storm, I never thought we had a chance with that.....we classify some storms as near misses, but that was an inland storm all the way.

    thats awesome, a hybrid blizzard.
  8. LibertyBell
    you'll still be coming down to the south shore during moderate to strong el ninos, when the south shore is traditionally the sweet spot in the big HECS

    there was snow in Lynbrook?
  10. LibertyBell
    why does it look like snow is confined to CT and points north on the radar?
  11. LibertyBell
    TWC giving bad info again saying this storm tracked too close to the coast for snow in coastal areas.
  12. LibertyBell
    I dont remember any historic storm last December lol- who was it historic for, Vermont?
  13. LibertyBell
    and the 20th might be a bit too optimistic. it's probably more like 13-18.....

    this is exactly why I'm gungho on geo-engineering remember how awful 2011 was, we could save so many lives if we prevented this kind of weather occurring in the first place by being able to control ENSO and other factors. Maybe in a few decades we'll have the tech to do it.

    0" snow and 0 wins for the Jets

    oh joy a perfect score!

    Looks like the best time to look is 45 min after sunset in the western sky and the thin crescent moon will be joining them: https://earthsky.org/astronomy-essentials/great-jupiter-saturn-conjunction-dec-21-2020 https://earthsky.org/tonight/young-moon-to-swing-by-jupiter-saturn

    Right, fortunately this is the earliest sunset can get around here, I was told to look right after sunset, since they're both very bright it should be easy to see them right after.

    why is it that everyone yaps about la ninas being so cool on a global level and we always get screwed over by them unless they are weak and come after an el nino the previous winter?

    and the NAM which everyone was laughing at when it first showed a monster solution.
  21. LibertyBell
    if we had been alive in March 1888 we would've been dancing in the streets lol

    and a month later another sleet storm on St Paddy's Day!

    But all I ask is that there be clear skies for this super conjunction coming up between Jupiter and Saturn. I'm not clear on the exact date they'll be closest...I think it's December 21? Nikon made a new superzoom camera that actually seems to be good at taking deep space pics as well as planetary images. I found a review site about it: The Moon and Mars: https://jzholloway.wordpress.com/2020/09/06/moon-mars-conjunction/ Pleaides star cluster https://jzholloway.wordpress.com/2020/09/24/the-pleiades-star-cluster-m45/ Lyra starfield https://jzholloway.wordpress.com/2020/07/26/vega-lyra-7-18-2020/ The 50mm 10 sec shot at ISO 6400 is really good (even if the noise is a little high)- check it out! added: images of M42 Orion Nebula taken with the P950 (note these were not stacked) https://jzholloway.wordpress.com/2020/11/09/m42-the-orion-nebula/ at the bottom of that post.
