  1. yes. we dont usually have a mud season here (thank goodness). typically we go from our last snowfall to 70 and 80 degree sunny weather lol
  2. can we somehow go back before 1870 Ray? I've heard there were a few years where both NYC and PHL had 100" of snow and snowcover from November thru March
  3. yeah I mean we got a nice snow today but this really is a two day two low event
  4. our heaviest was up til 1 PM that was wonderful, nothing much after that
  5. Walt I thought the pattern was breaking down and we're supposed to have mild sunny weather next week?
  6. well more like Lynbrook/East Rockaway it was gorgeous when it was snowing heavily we had a mini white out for awhile between 12 and 1
  7. by the end of this storm it will reach 40- book it!
  8. 6 inches is what I've measured here, seems similar to other places in W Nassau and Queens. It was snowing hard to about 1 PM not much after that though
  9. and it would make light pollution worse wouldn't it? Bill Gates was on 60 Minutes talking about climate change with Anderson Cooper- what do you think of this?
  10. There's much more than ENSO that affects the climate. For one thing we have a record AO block this year, extremely long in duration.
  11. Wind mills aint the problem. Typical cost cutting measures and privatization is. The government of the state of Texas and its ignorance is the problem. The dirty fossil fuel industry did the same cost cutting and had the same breakdowns.
  12. This is an important consideration especially with past history when traffic on NYC gets shut down with even 4 inch snowfall that falls during one of the rush hour periods
  13. Right well personally I'd move Warning criteria over to 10" snowfalls and higher, especially since we no longer have Heavy Snow Warnings. We dont really consider an 8 incher a big snowstorm.
  14. I think I see Doctor Fauci there in the back of the party......
  15. I was there in the Poconos for the storm last year and it was amazing and we had snow squalls all day Saturday after a snowy Friday night! Found out back in Brooklyn and Long Island there was snow during the day on Saturday too!
  16. Thanks Don! And MPO if you could (it also helps our NW NJ residents who are near the border, the totals are very similar.
  17. I didn't know either....I had decided to cut and paste my posts to that thread I thought the + thing lost the post if you left the thread to go to a different one lol.
  18. I'll never forget how accurate he was in 93-94, with many of those 30 plus storms we had that season. He would do a 10:45 update with new model data the night before the storm and talk about how the storm would be more icy/snowy than anyone else was predicting and changeovers would be delayed and turned out to be correct.
  19. that 1-3 on Thursday and 1-3 on Friday from two waves could turn out to be correct then?
  20. It's interesting how this storm is viewed differently by different mets. Mr G, who is ancient, but the only one remaining from the old era of mets we grew up with on TV, said this is basically a two wave snowfall, with the first wave delivering 1-3 on Thursday and the second wave delivering 1-3 on Friday and thats the reason it's a WWA.
  21. Yeah I mean this is the same guy who said our latest snow was in late May, which was actually hail. This storm (and this entire week) has been a tough forecast.
  22. Maybe put it in banter lol. This is a fascinating topic
  23. Yes sorry I really tried not to so I'm really sorry about that, but it seems like a discussion was already being made so I decided to enter it.
  24. Yes it's gotten a lot worse from when I was little, maybe because of the higher precip averages we now have? what is it that causes the majority of allergies- weeds, deciduous trees, or mold/fungus?
