  1. 2005 had some accumulation right?
  2. New York City second week of March. Beyond that it’s spring snow when you’re lucky. wet slop Until then you can have a wintery feel this year we didn’t even have a winter feel side for a week or two in the middle of February and January. I don’t know what these people are talking about winter in March. Ridiculous.
  3. Isnt that wonderful…This fucking winter
  4. I called that. Endless 5-10 warmth this season continues.
  5. People were using March snow and cold as a workaround for the loss of December in the 2010s. Like the season shifted vs what actually happened…the season shrunk
  6. That was epic. Wading River looked like Alaska. Then came Dec 2015 and the rest is history
  7. Spectacular conditions at Belleayre today if you could get past the brutal winds
  8. but it never felt like a classic El Niño The autumn leading up to it wasn’t that warm. Even December wasn’t that warm until we got to that last week and a half. I mean, I say that with a grain of salt because everything is warm now. Then, when we got to January, any of the El Niño bag of tricks, kind of sputtered out. You could see where the big storms were supposed to be. The pattern was there, but in each of the cases, the cold air just wasn’t in place or available, and it ended up being a 2-3 inch type of thing.
  9. Very predictable. Not even a chance
  10. Good snowfall for March !
  11. it comes in hot because it’s low lying, swampy, industrialized land that is covered in cement and machinery, as far as I could see. It was shit hole land that nobody wanted. That’s why an airport was made there 70 years ago. if you had a kid, and they tried to set up a hot wheels, micro machine, matchbox, Thomas the train set up on a fixed size table, and every piece of that playset was put out: tanks, highways, bridges, tunnels, Seaport, airport, train lines, buildings, factories, stores, radio towers and an old church or two, that is what EWR looks like on short final approach. That’s why it’s always hotter than everywhere else. There’s not a blade of grass or a tree or an open space or a hill for miles in any direction.
  12. actually, I think it’s very representative. If you want to haggle over an inch or two in Central Park, that’s fine. that little 30 mile swath just north of 195 is what’s not representative of the metro area this winter. The metro area is literally melting from record warmth, record number of lack of freezing temperatures, and record low snowfall. I can’t remember the last time I drove down to Queens to shovel my parents sidewalk. what was an annual occurrence or multi times throughout the year, it hasn’t happened in years. Maybe that pre-Christmas storm a few years back. I live north of the city, and I have palm annuals still going. Simply amazing. i’ve never seen anything like it and per our record book nobody else has either. Central New Jersey between 195 and 78 for a few hours in one storm aside, we are in big, big trouble here.
  13. I was just barbecuing for lunch. with the wind and the cloud cover and the temperature, I swear if you closed my eyes and spun me in a circle it felt like a shitty memorial day.
  14. You could plant begonias. How is CPK doing with number of days below freezing? Has to be lowest ever. I wonder if it even happens again. Earliest last freeze possible? Just Epic how many records broken this winter!
  15. Briefly dry slotted and happy in Westchester
