if we dont hit 70 at all in April I'm going to root for moving the Earth to Venus's orbit.

is this in concert with the extremely warm Gulf causing all this severe weather? how are these cold airmasses able to get this far south so late in the season? I'm rooting for a solar flare to bake us now lol since longer days seem to be useless for warmth.

These are the times when I wish we had learned to modify the weather already.....scientists modify everything else, so why not this? as the old saying goes "everyone talks about the weather, but no one does anything about it."

I thought there was "no cold air anywhere on the planet" all winter, where did this unwanted nuisance cold come from anyway?

we did have snow though, although it was brief. This cold absolutely sucks though, I'm still running my space heaters. I was hoping for it to get warm so I could evict these mice who came inside when I was having my bathroom plumbing redone and the contractor left without finishing the job. I got someone else to plug up the holes he left behind but the mice wouldn't leave and I tried everything- poison, glue traps, etc. The poison made me more sick than doing anything to the mice. I noticed that they seem to be more active when I turn my heat on so I turned it off and hoped it would be warmer outside by now so they'd just leave. But they haven't and the only other thing that keeps them in hiding is when I leave my light on all night and laying down plastic bags on my floor for some reason. Stupid useless creatures like this should be extinct...... The things I wouldn't mind seeing wiped off the planet are: mice/rats, mosquitoes, fleas/ticks, cockroaches, flies (of all types), centipedes/millipedes, etc. Why do all the useful creatures go extinct while the pests keep overpopulating? I even have cats roaming around outside and the dirty rodents somehow managed to avoid them. anyway I digress. I'm leaving for the weekend and turning my heat off completely and I have a new poison I'm laying down everywhere so hopefully everything will be dead when I get back. The glue traps killed a few of them but the rest somehow learned to avoid it. I'm also thinking of leaving my lights on a timer.

it was snowing pretty hard, not sure why it wasn't sticking in the city. Jersey Shore had 6-8", JFK had 4-5"

could have some snow even to the coast this week

no chance of severe weather on long island with southerly winds in April

why is the GOM so warm this year?

Yes, probably until the end of next week, then we warm up big time nationwide

it would probably be suppressed with our luck

we had winds in the 50s lol. I'd say the chances for snow on Long Island are somewhat higher lol. Looks like both the Jersey Shore and MA had higher gusts than Long Island did. 82 on Long Beach Island, NJ and 80 on the MA coast, highest for Long Island was 68 out at Orient

thats what you get when you cram close to 2 billion people literally on top of each other. that and lots of pollution

yes windier here on the south shore than it was on the north shore, we had hurricane force wind gusts here close to 80.

Dec 1992 was a three day historic storm with snow here on the back end (but up to 3 feet of snow inland). That will be my all time coastal storm that wasn't all snow.

we were in the mid 30s too and I'm like 4 miles from the queens border lol

Moon was gorgeous last night! Cold too lol

Happy Easter and Passover everyone!!

sure, it's basically a pre-existing condition. Where there is air pollution more people have asthma. More densely populated areas have more air pollution because of car exhaust (NO2). It's been halved because of all the restrictions now but a lot of people already had asthma from before.

posted this on the political side too Both the UN and the American Journal of Microbiology and Dr Fauci of our CDC have all said that China needs to end these nasty dirty "wet markets" on exotic mammals. I saw a video where thousands of these disgusting bats were being showed off in a slaughter shop- the same ones where this virus supposedly came from. We need to stop encroaching on lands that belong to wild animals or we will keep having these pandemics. Dr. Rick Knabb who was the head of the National Hurricane Center said that unless we put a check on our population growth, climate change, pandemics and pollution will ALL be much harder to fight. Ironically our pollution levels have gotten a lot better because of this pandemic. I hope we learn our hard learned lessons and hold onto that after the pandemic ends. Found this out the other day, did you know that 8 MILLION people a year die from pollution?!

I've heard there have been an extra 1,000 "unexplained deaths" this month alone- people who died at home without getting any medical care.

that looks like hurricane force wind gusts for all of long island.....might be like March 2010!

that 3.3" hot spot is right near my other house, but looks like my winds here on the south shore will be a lot higher? hurricane force wind gusts here?

Is this going to be like another March 2010?!

for some reason we werent under any kind of advisory let alone warning
