  1. Thanks! Which one of the above was their earliest? The one in 2011 was during the snowstorm! Did NYC record freezing too? and no snow at any of our local airports or NYC, not even a T?
  2. My car almost blew off the highway as I was returning from PA to Long Island on I-80. wow those 60+ gusts should have been a HWW
  3. I remember that storm well.....and the cold dry December that followed and then the record heat after that that made March feel like being on spring break lol.
  4. Chris, did JFK have their first freeze? When I got back to Long Island on Monday, my digital thermometer registered a low of 32 F, but it didn't save the date it occurred....could it have been Saturday morning?
  5. 1993 too. mild Novembers after a cold October used to be a good sign for a snowy winter
  6. what about 1983-84? I seem to remember a lot of these cold dry winters during the 80s lol. Cold and dry Januarys at any rate
  7. I wont be surprised when we have year long hurricane seasons soon enough just like we have yearlong fire seasons now out west
  8. after the week full of clouds and rains I dont mind a long period of warm sunny weather.
  9. with all these dry conditions in the West, I'm wondering if this might actually be a torch winter for the entire CONUS.
  10. Yes, imagine if that storm had moved a scant 100 miles farther west and stalled there......
  11. If we actually had a 920 mb low hit us directly, what would that do? 100 mph winds and a high storm surge regardless of what kind of storm it was? What's the strongest storm that has actually hit land between Cape May and Eastport, ME and how strong was it?
  12. No real reason for a debate, you could retire the name with the year at the end, for example Zeta 2020.
  13. Right, elevation and a bit away from the Ocean which is ideal. Blue Hill Observatory is like that too.
  14. Right and the best place to be is a little away from the coast and have some elevation, and out of Albany, Boston and Worcester, who are all at similar latitudes, Worcester tends to do the best.
  15. Thanks for the full list- I'm somewhere between the 0.6 and 0.9 listed above lol.
  16. Yeah like last winter was amazing in Maine. It's probably the best place to live if you want to stay on the east coast and love snow.
  17. That's generally the case with eastern storm tracks, but dont you think that longitude (west) and elevation is better in la ninas because most storms tend to cut or be huggers? The WAR is stronger than it usually is. BTW I was shocked that 4" was your heaviest recorded October snow- you didn't get more than that there in October 2011? I remember reading parts of New England got 30"!
  18. yea I want next winter to be a super strong el nino and get rid of all this la nina junk
  19. The only difference is, there's always a higher league when it comes to weather ;-) Like Portland vs Boston, or Bangor vs Boston, etc. I wonder if there is a certain latitude where the difference is the most if you're north of it vs south of it? I know it's different every year, but on an average climate basis? Maybe it's 40 N?
  20. Yessss, I hate it when it's raining here and snowing to our east that just seems like bizarro world lol
  21. Thanks, just saw it. Still snowing there?
