A bit of govt overreach in the post covid world, but then I keep seeing these idiots clogging major roads in sedans stuck in 6 inches of snow and I guess you have to go with the lowest common denominator. Sad world

There is a temperature/snowfall rate equation that needs to be balanced here. Especially in daytime. Especially for those of us with snow still on the ground

I dont think so

Moderate snow in Westchester. 34F Go USA Hockey!!!

Not going to get dry snow with temps in mid 30s

there’s an equation that needs to be balanced here. Heavier snow near the coast, but tomorrow during the day away from the cement jungle you’re gonna accumulate faster. it all shakes out in the wash, but the further you are from a cement jungle in a snowstorm with marginal temps the better off you are. Once the storm gets going and the sunsets it’s not gonna matter.

Isnt our benchmark 40/70?

Actually it is. They added 3 or 4 new holidays and came to an agreement with the UFT to not extend school year. They have to meet a minimum threshold of days per year with state. Hence the remote learning. They have no extra days built in. Eid Juneteeth Lunar New Year UFT can not report before Labor Day. up in the burbs, our teachers report before Labor Day and sometimes school begins before Labor Day. And they also have five snow days figured in. They give those back over Memorial Day weekend and they cut the school year if they don’t use them. Long story short, you need to hit 180. If the union contract has a hard stop on Labor Day and last week of June, something has to give if you add 3 new holidays.

You want to talk about cuts to weather agencies? That is fine. Keep your other politics out of this forum. I come to places like this to get away from all that. Thanks

Forget the ski season at this point. Now its about water. Glen Canyon can stop functioning this year of things dont pick up

It has been hot and cold there too in terms of snow. but you know that

Bozeman today. looks and feels like summer here. sunny and 60. not a flake of snow. Jives with my last few SLC trips. Under an inch for season. Devastating winter out west and a summer water crisis coming

1/2 inch in Westcheter is a good number! glad we already have snow on ground

that was a big opportunity missed. Just a day later…
