  1. 7 pm is the ideal time to measure because the city flipped to a mix at 6:30
  2. Don has the negative AO maxed out or will it go even lower?
  3. all I've read here is the temps will snap back to much warmer in March, it's about time, this winter has been a very long one regardless of how many inches of snowfall we've had or not had.
  4. But this time there would be zero rain or mix, it would just be too cold, much colder than it was during *Nemo*
  5. Looks like it might have been even more snow for Central and South Jersey based on the map Stormlover posted above.
  6. what's the 10:1 at the end of the storm (0z on Friday or whenever)?
  7. wow that's better than I thought it would be. 14.0 on that run for here
  8. I just dont like the word *shower* when it refers to snow, it's a huge source of confusion for many people who always associate *shower* with rain. I think that term needs to be retired from the weather lexicon and just use flurries instead You're right though, can't waffle back and forth, they should just say *A chance of snow*
  9. a *shower* not never even refer to snow, I hate that overused phrase with a passion a shower should ONLY refer to rain
  10. But that kicker hasn't even been sampled yet? When will that be properly sampled-- Monday?
  11. Highs:EWR: 76 (1949)NYC: 73 (1949)LGA: 74 (1949)JFK: 64 (1954)Lows:EWR: -7 (1943) NYC: -8 (1943)LGA: -7 (1943)JFK: 5 (2015) That -8 in 1943 was the last time NYC was colder than -2 ! Is the -7 at LGA their all time record low, Tony? 73-76 is unusually warm for February! No records for JFK in 1949 Tony (obviously not for the cold in 1943.)
  12. But then you can also have a super windy blizzard like January 2016 with 12 straight hours of true blizzard conditions that drops over 30 inches at JFK. Maybe February 1978 is an example of wind reducing total snowfall though as JFK only received 14 inches in that storm, less than half of what they got in January 2016.
  13. Yes that was a mixing storm here too and the snowfall rates weren't as high as the other two I mentioned.
  14. I loved both the December and February snowstorms that winter, that was another snowy la nina after el nino.
  15. No 2 miles in. Winter storms don't do a lot of damage to our beaches unless one lives on a barrier island and I don't remember any snowstorm especially damaging ocean front or beach front property, it's usually the big rainstorms that do it like December 1992.
