co2 doesn't affect individual storms

No not that, the whole package of changes, like warmer sst affecting storm tracks, bringing what would be offshore storms closer to the coast, more blocking, slower storms, more precip with higher precip rates like we have been seeing for a few years now.

Finally got home to Long Beach. I’d estimate 5” here. Snow mixed with sleet and a little rain now. 

About the same here, close to 6", how do you compare this to the storm after Sandy?  About the same amount of snow at your home?

This will be a traffic nightmare . Snowfall at this rate will accumulate on all road surfaces 

closing in on 6 inches down this way with no salting or plows all the roads are like parking lots

another climate change storm in progress

when are they going to fix the models to factor in climate change and the new climate we are now in

5 inches in the city?  Wow

closing in on 6 inches here on the south shore, looks it might dryslot rather than going from heavy snow to heavy rain

Just now, mranger48 said:

Behaving like a SWFE in some ways. We could dry slot after the full transition with not as much rain as we thought


.

thats what I was thinking, with a low track that close there's usually a dryslot not a heavy snow to heavy rain scenario

Note, my comment above was regarding you PA taxes; your NY taxes may be higher than mine

yep PA taxes are about half of NY taxes

Oh I remember it alright. This one is performing better for us over here. Also not as heavy a snow as that one, which was the last snow until Feb that year...

13" in Freehold with that one that was definitely historic

Whatever you are paying there, it is less than what we're paying here, believe me. 

well before this increase whatever it ends up being it was already around 12K a year.

4pm snow measurements were funky.  LGA reported 1.2 on .19 and JFK 3.2 on 2.5.  Central Park didn’t report 

closing in on 6 inches here in sw nassau as of 5 pm

The other night I was bored and did some research math, when NYC gets 3" or more they average like 36" it would've been higher but I had to exclude 95-96 when 2.9" fell.

So start with 2.5" haha since that rounds up to 3"

I'll admit I was wrong. But no one said it can't snow in November. It happened 3 times the past 6 years. 

They must be forgetting the storm after Sandy when we got 8-10 inches of snow in Nassau County and over a foot of snow in Central NJ, and that was more than a week earlier than this storm.

Looks to me like it hasn't budged in central NJ over the past hour.  Definitely not "racing".  Someone on that r/s line is getting frustrated with the back and forth p-types.

Snow started here about 45 minutes ago.  32 S- with a light coating.

 

 

this is a nice overperformer for the south shore of nassau county, looks like 3-4 inches already the plows need to be out

Funny how JFK is warmer than LGA.  That 070 wind is mild this time of year

all roads are snowcovered here with heavy snow coming down

we are getting bombed right now in red bank in northern Monmouth. couple of inches down and heavy snow hanging on

 

 

This storm is already overperforming here on the south shore of Long Island, very heavy snow sticking to everything including roads and my pond has been frozen over since this morning- where are the plows?

Looks great outside

Daytime heavy snows are the best!  I dont care what happens at night lol

I wish my property was right for solar power. The house and ground faces generally east and all of the south and west sides are lined with 60-75 foot trees on the neighbors sides so at prime time I get very little sun once the trees are leafed out. I could pull a few hours early in the day but I don't think that would be enough to justify the cost.

ugh and with all this rain thats been hitting us in our new climate pattern it feels like we get sun like maybe one day out of every week

I think the fact that it was basically 1 dud surrounded by good winters made it more tolerable. Avg is around 43"

haha 2002-03 was good therapy for me after 2001-02

1972-73 and 2001-02 actually did ok snow wise here but were very warm winters. 1972-73 was actually a few inches above avg. 

That puts 2011-12 in a whole new light in that it was a widespread suckage for everyone!

Allentown is doing very well, so far. My sister was in Hawley and reported similar scenes.

Oh I spend my weekends just north of there in the mountains.  I'm on the south shore of Nassau County during the week.

In Carbon County in PA it had been snowing since last weekend lol.
