  1. haha different world out there, we had full sun all day which is exactly what I wanted.
  2. how is it that 1966-67 isn't on this list?
  3. Yes and that was also the last time NYC or western LI had a double digit snowfall in March lol. Also, Jan 1996 is considered the top snowstorm for our area, March 1993 was definitely better in the South though.
  4. CP we can still have major snowstorms in March of course, but the double digit snowfalls in urbanized areas like NYC and western LI is nonexistent- the last one here was March 1993. It's easy to see why thats the case when you combine high sun angle with concrete. I'm fine with it, as by March most of us are already in spring mode and a 6-8 inch storm is fine and considered exceptional by then.
  5. Not only that having the snowiest month in March almost always means the winter sucked before that (see the 50s)
  6. lol look for the last 10" snowfall at NYC/LGA/JFK in March it was almost 30 years ago and I think that was the only one in my lifetime (March 1993).
  7. NYC and western LI dont get high snowfall totals in March....I've been saying that for years lol. Nothing shocking about it though, thats what urbanization has done. I haven't seen a double digit snowfall in March since March 1993 and it took a once in a century event to make it happen.
  8. sounds like you're on board the snowy March train after a one week hiatus with mild and sunny weather this week
  9. Thats the only state that hasn't had snow this season, even Hawaii has had snow (they get it every year in the mountains.) Florida is the only state not touched by the arctic yet.
  10. you have to have a sense of humor to tolerate their mud season lol
  11. radar timestamp says 2/21 lol...lmao I didn't see the 1 in front! we write dates differently here in America
  12. Seeing totals nearing 7 inches in queens and western nassau
  13. NYC has 38 inches, I think they'll easily get another 2 inches at some point to reach 40.....we've had 4 inch snowstorms in March before with temps above freezing during the day!
  14. yes 1996 was my all time favorite. I like breaks in the wintry pattern and nature cleaning up the snow before a fresh batch falls.
  15. he should be unbanned for the first day of every month to start a monthly thread and then rebanned as soon as he starts it, rinse and repeat lol
  16. This has been a great event but my favorite was the one we had Superbowl Sunday where it snowed all day and ended just in time for an amazing sunset. I like the snow to end just before sunset and then have a spectacular sunset to take pictures of the snow in.
  17. Yes this is more like what you see in the mountains
  18. I bet it'll snow until sometime tonight, maybe 10 PM to midnight?
  19. The world is round so it's natural that everything is interconnected
  20. Right and combining arctic air with warmer than normal waters can often have explosive results. Note how the arctic air didn't make it into Florida, which many of those 80s arctic outbreaks did. This shows the boundary was close to us, which is great for generating storminess here.
  21. 1995-96, 2010-11 and 2017-18 are my three favorites!
  22. Isn't the IO warming faster than any other ocean, Chris? If that's the case then it may be having downstream effects on the Pacific and so forth. MJO Phase 8 is becoming rare.
  23. Chris is this also directly connected with how we're seeing bigger snowfalls now with arctic outbreaks and in general vs back then?
  24. Looks like Bayside has reached 6" too. Many of us may be in the 6-8 range originally predicted by the end of this.
