  1. yeah we had that hail about 10-15 min ago along with blinding rain, it was pretty exciting. I think I remember the event you mentioned, and there was one on the north sure of Queens too....something like hours of hail with snow plows out lol.
  2. I was wondering if it would be possible to get that kind of snow here this late in the season with a direct shot of arctic shot here instead of having one go to the west and then come here later on. But those have become so rare that it might be a once in 30 year event now.
  3. the thunder and hail came back along with the rain but not nearly as heavy as before
  4. and just like that it's over....that's why I dont care much for these kinds of storms, they just dont last long enough
  5. yes! Thats what I saw and heard! along with the blindingly heavy rain. It looked more like dime sized to me though
  6. whats the record for hail size all time in NYC and nearby area (like Long Island, Nassau County, etc?) Also in terms of duration (how long it lasts and how much can accumulate at one time?)
  7. this is definitely hail I see crashing into my windows here and extremely heavy rain like a waterfall!
  8. wow it's raining here so hard I can't see anything outside well except this new waterfall right outside my windows lol and sounds like hail!
  9. it goes with the NWS forecasts for a hot May
  10. How is it that Kansas City averages less snow than us during the winter but is more likely to get more snow than us now?
  11. been pretty cloudy the last 2 days
  12. and nothing for anywhere in the Poconos, like Lake Harmony or Albrightsville?
  13. car companies are on board to be fully renewable within 10-15 years and on top of that even China has committed to being carbon neutral by 2060. And that's the last one to the party.
  14. Thanks Don, do you have data from Mt Pocono for May 9-10, 2020 also, to compare to 1977 on the same dates? I think it was around 2" but not sure.
  15. Another idea I had was maybe we could do a weighed average? Keep the 30 year average but weigh the last 10 years twice as much as the 20 years prior.....that would give priority to the changing climate.
  16. Looks like we might have sustained warmth starting in the first week of May, so not far away.
  17. I take it we didn't get anything from the follow up and it went to our west? I was in NE PA and it was such a wintry system, woke up on Saturday morning, the 10th, with temps in the teens and wind chills near 0 and snow squalls all day long which were accumulating when it snowed hard during the day! May 10th! I dont know if you have any records for this Don, but do you have any numbers for the May 9-10, 1977 snowstorm in the Mount Pocono and Lake Harmony area (both are above 2,000 ft.)
  18. this makes me think we should keep climate normals for 10 years instead of 30, to account for the quicker changes we are now having
  19. Chris will that coastal over the weekend also cause snow in the mountains?
  20. hey Detroit's 0.5 last year was around the same time we had snow last May! same system?
  21. even more surprising would be accumulating snow for both KC and St Louis!
  22. ah okay, it doesn't feel that warm because we have had no 80s (and barely any 70s and low 70s at that) and I've had the heat on every day. The min thing always taints the average, it never feels that warm unless the high temp is 70+ on a consistent basis.
  23. wow Walt, total precip (combo of rain and snow was 0.32"). Thanks for the 1.0" snow figure, I wonder if that will be it for the season or more is coming up.
