  1. March 1993 was earth's equivalent of the Great Red Spot, except it was the Great White Spot :-P It would be fun if Earth ever got a perpetual storm that never dissipates like that!
  2. being a snowfall purist I preferred 95-96 to 93-94.... sleet and freezing rain annoys me (unless it's an all ice storm, which looks pretty on the trees.)
  3. only 13 inches here in Feb 2006
  4. there were like 25 storms of 1" or more or a sleet/freezing rain mix... its why the city ran out of salt in the middle of winter lol
  5. Lee said it was down to 1.0" on the news. I was shocked when I heard that.
  6. did you sell the Wantagh house to relatives or friends? I did the same thing with a house I had in Oyster Bay and visit my old haunts often lol. They get MUCH more snow and it aggravates me to no end
  7. There was no real jackpot everyone was between 2-4 inches
  8. I dont know but thats what Lee Goldberg said on ch. 7!
  9. Definitely..... 89-90 had the two worst possible winter outcomes here- dry and cold followed by warm and wet. When it was in the mid 80s in Mid March we were happy and hoping for a warm spring and then we got hit with an inconsequential little snow event in early April lol. I like April snow but it should at least be a few inches.
  10. it was like being in two completely opposite seasons within the same season!
  11. was school closed for 2 days
  12. all I remember about that winter is changing over to rain while it snowed a few miles away lol
  13. thanks I saved that graphic, it actually verified! I hope JM sees it too lol. It actually snowed right to 7 am too, it ended at the perfect time for the official measurement!
  14. lol I thought they were prank or crank calling you after the predictions massively busted.
  15. it did here, a year later.....on the same date?
  16. oh lovely, I wonder if the March 2001 predictions were similar.
  17. prank calls or crank calls ?!
  18. Sounds absolutely scenic! We might have to make a mountain for you too lol, Mt. Surf Freak
  19. we got freezing rain on the first day of the storm and 4" on the back end. Patchogue got a foot of snow on the back end. NYC public schools closing in advance was absolutely comical.
  20. What kept the storm from being closer to the coast and/or developing sooner?
  21. We got as much as we could out of it. I'm glad it lingered all night and even into the morning. That's a lot better than most storms which only give us a few snow showers on the backside.
  22. I have 64 GB of photos and videos to prove it, it was an amazing 36 hour all out blizzard that even outlasted the predictions. The snow just kept falling. First time I've experienced a 3" LE all snow event.
