  1. it remains to be seen if we see that though, I thought the projections were for a weak la nina or even cold neutral?
  2. Each of the ocean basins is taking its turn..... is this retrograding and will it be the Atlantic's turn next? First it was the Pacific and then the Indian....
  3. one thing's for sure, the 2021 summer will be a true scorcher (it follows the 11 yr pattern.)
  4. I think the map depicted just the Spring avg rainfall increase.
  5. Springs seem to have gotten a lot rainier. Saw a map today that showed the Eastern US has gotten about 55% rainier in the last 60 years.
  6. this is looking more and more like a warm and wet summer coming up rather than hot and dry. You dont often get a hot summer with such a high soil moisture content. Might be a 1996 kind of summer oncoming, really humid but not hot.
  7. 1996 too, hottest weather of the year was in the third week of May after it had been record cold the week before.....
  8. Besides the amazing 1966-67 season all those years are during or prior to world war 1! Actually the vast majority are from the 1800s lol.
  9. I saw some videos indicating that it snowed in Brooklyn during the day on Saturday. I thought the snow happened in the middle of the previous night? I wasn't aware that any snow fell in NYC or Long Island during the day.
  10. snow in the Poconos after severe weather yes. I saw a heavy frost when I got back to Long Island Monday morning after Mother's Day.
  11. The really major heat was between 2010 and 2013, now we seem to have much more rainy springs (and a lot more allergies.). 2011 was a year in which we had both extreme heat AND lots of rain- like 1983 in that respect!
  12. for some reason I remember 90s occurring more frequently in April and May back then (with the exception of 2002 and 2010 of course.) It's been like pulling teeth to get 90 at JFK before June in recent years...... when was the last time we had a polar vortex like this during the winter?
  13. looks like those hornets love cool rainy weather......they'll probably be here in a couple years...and we might still be wearing face masks then!
  14. but the pollen horror has been full steam ahead since March. why cant we invent some sort of chemical to prevent pollen outbreaks? we seem to invent them for everything else......
  15. the ASOS also underdoes summer temps at NYC and the wind reports are laughable. was ASOS a cost cutting measure so they dont have to pay people?
  16. in 1996 we had snow during Mother's Day weekend too, 1-3 inches in the Poconos, I came home to a big heavy frost on Long Island on Monday, the 14th! 33 degree low. 1995-96 might have been our longest snow season!
  17. 2002 was special, we went from a historically unsnowy winter to a brief shot of cold in early April, to a historic heatwave in mid April to another cold down in May to historic heat again over the summer lol. There was snow in the Poconos in May 2002 also. in 1990 we had a stretch of upper 80s in mid March to 1 inch of snow in early April lol....before that we had a Thanksgiving snowstorm going to a historically cold and dry December going to a historically warm Jan/Feb
  18. May and Spring in general was definitely much warmer during the 80s and 90s.......
