    Hmm was that eruption actually in late March and wouldn't that be really soon for the snowstorm to occur after the eruption? More likely it was the emerging super el nino to come next winter. Same thing happened in April 1997.

    but less snow especially during the 80s with a suppressed storm track outside of Feb 1983

    Jan 1985 had the coldest day I've ever experienced.....

    well 80% of people actually buy artificial trees and use them for years.

    people talk about these averages as if they are some kind of certainty lol. Averages dont mean anything, especially in a changing climate.

    but nature cant heal Arecibo :-(

    growing up in the 80s helped..... to be honest, an apocalyptic event would also be something to get excited over.....
  8. LibertyBell
    yes and economically thats all that really matters, that the ski resorts do well.

    personally I'm more excited right now about getting the warmest year on record....of course this record will probably only last one year lol

    dont worry florida will be coming here soon enough and florida, well, they'll be the atlantis of the future (with much less advanced tech of course.)

    snow that changes to rain is garbage, I'd rather have zero snow and 70 degree temps and if that's in our future so be it.

    For local regions, looks like NYC is in the lead with their warmest year on record, as are other cities in the northeast and Florida also (Miami, Orlando, Tampa). NYC is getting perilously close to a 60 degree yearly temp average and Miami is approaching 80 for a yearly average... Think we have our warmest year on record, Don?

    but no all snow reports or anything on the ground south of CT from what I can surmise?
  15. LibertyBell
    Yes indeed. First part overperformed as the rain/snow line remained 5 miles south of the south shore and we got 8 inches from that and then the temps plummeted and I was convinced the second part would be even better with temps in the teens but the best dynamics went east of us and we only got 5 inches in the second part while Farmingdale ended up with 20 inches between the two parts of the storm. That might have been the earliest 20 inch storm on any part of Long Island. You have to be close to the rain/snow/mix line to get the best snows!

    Thanks I heard there were some mangled flakes as close as Lynbrook

    I remember that as the Central Long Island storm, in urbanized parts of western Long Island it was a nice storm but not as much as what we had on March 1, 2009 (granted the first day of March is more like late February than it is March.) The one I remember most in that series was the April snowstorm that shut down the Yankee opener.

    lol I know that was for Tony....

    RJ whats the deep purple stuff near Long Beach? And the bright blue stuff just west of there? I wasn't aware western LI was a swing district....
  20. LibertyBell
    ah so thats where all the snow fell!
  21. LibertyBell
    Long Island is weird with all these transition zones. Sometimes you get more snow on the south shore, sometimes less. In the huge historic storms, the south shore seems to get more snow. I'm just south of Peninsula Blvd, so a bit closer to the ocean than you, but I too have seen marginal events where it was snowing here (5"!) and JM was getting rain in Long Beach lol. That was an event during the 2009-10 winter. I remember JM was seeing red when he was seeing white just to his north by about 2 miles lol.

    too windy to do any leaf raking too

    Forky is the Stephen Hawking of the science community.

    Yeah Jan 2019 was my best too. That was 2 winters ago though, the one last winter, 2019-20, was okay but not as great as the one in Jan 2019.

    the sun is starting to come out here now too. They weren't kidding with the 1 PM end time for us.
