    would having this happen in the middle of the night mean a little less of an impact than if it were happening in the middle of the afternoon?

    isnt this a precursor to some of our best KU events....firehouse pac jet into a big NAO block.....pacific supplies the moisture the block supplies the cold air

    well the weekend should be a slam dunk lol thats the good thing about arctic air masses....no clouds!

    that was the strongest wind gust recorded at NYC ever....78 mph on 12/2/74? what about Hazel and its 113 mph? That was at the Battery out of the south wasn't it? Do you have the highest winds reported at the various stations? I think Sandy holds JFK, EWR and LGA records though not sure. Dec 1992 hit 78 at LGA and Mar 2010 hit 80 at JFK just going by memory. Out of all of the above Dec 1992 caused the most damage (and it was the most widespread)....3 days of horrendousness lol

    Orlando could hit 32! Florida records from 1995, would be a nice analog

    looks like the coldest xmas for florida since 1995? Dec 1995 would be a nice analog Orlando chances of hitting 32 ?

    also big snows in December have staying power because of low sun angle and short days. as long as it doesn't rain lol
  8. LibertyBell
    We were gusting in the 60s, close to 70 I think.
  9. LibertyBell
    wow that's Sandy level if it happens and out of the south which would have a strong surge component here
  10. LibertyBell
    Chris was that a greater event than Dec 1992? Weren't a lot of our surge records before Sandy from Dec 1992?
  11. LibertyBell
    I'm not sure it will be the highest *ever* recorded in that time period- that seems dubious to me. In the Euro forecast they are talking about 75 mph wind gusts both here on Long Island AND in NE PA in the Poconos, which would be amazing. But still this storm wouldn't be anything like what the amazing December 1992 noreaster was. That one set the bar (and not just for December). I dont think this could come close to matching that.
  12. LibertyBell
    12/92 and 3/10....both near 80 mph....I dont think this could match either of those
  13. LibertyBell
    how high
  14. LibertyBell
    thats why many are gungho on the first third of January, there are plenty of historic examples to choose from
  15. LibertyBell
    sounds like one of those typical 80s storms where Monmouth jackpotted on 2/25..do you have numbers for JFK from that storm? I would expect something like 4"?
  16. LibertyBell
    did you get to see it later? it was supposed to be clear tonight, no idea where these nonsense clouds came from, there isn't even a storm nearby
  17. LibertyBell
    shocked 14-15 isnt in here
  18. LibertyBell
    how much in that 4/10 event? and what was the biggest event that season and on what date did it occur? thanks
  19. LibertyBell
    thats what I was expecting.... we'll have our shot after New Years
  20. LibertyBell
    Yep and even this Jupiter/Saturn conjunction happens every 20 years but we haven't seen the last few "great" ones because they happened during daylight.
  21. LibertyBell
    hey Chris, could you also post E PA as I'll be there for the holidays I see 65-69....will the hilltops be seeing higher winds? And is that 74 hurricane force gusts for JFK? wow
  22. LibertyBell
    also this
  23. LibertyBell
    that should be GOA though not GOM. There's a guy in that thread named Jim Hughes, why does that name sound familiar?
  24. LibertyBell
    Yikes!
  25. LibertyBell
    that was an actual occultation? I want to simulate it in Starry Night! when is the next going to happen? The cool thing about a Jupiter/Saturn occultation would be seeing the satellite systems of both (and Saturn's rings) "intermingle"
