  1. Not going to get dry snow with temps in mid 30s
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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
  5. Forget the ski season at this point. Now its about water. Glen Canyon can stop functioning this year of things dont pick up
  6. It has been hot and cold there too in terms of snow. but you know that
  7. 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
  8. 1/2 inch in Westcheter is a good number! glad we already have snow on ground
  9. that was a big opportunity missed. Just a day later…
  10. yeah, but you’re not getting a snowstorm with that air mass. I mean, let’s be real here.
  11. So I planted deer proof evergreens that they never eat. They ate them over the last week. So much for that. Beyond that, stick a fork in this month (unbelievable) and likely this winter. Spring is in the air, you can feel it on the sunny days. Disappointing end to what could have been
  12. Schools are on a two hour delay. Ice everywhere. that should cement the snow on the ground for a bit
  13. i’m surprised I’m under a winter weather advisory. They must really be concerned about ice this evening. Looks like a quick hit
  14. As I was driving past Little Neck Bay today I was amazed to see the whole thing frozen. I havent seen that in years. And then I was floored to see it frozen thru the Throgs Neck Bridge. I have never seen that! Over the past few weeks I have been playing whack a mole with frozen pipes. I dont want warmth yet but normal 30s day 20s night will feel…good
  15. You havent been paying attention since 2015 then hahaha. All kidding aside, my gut (and a long range forecast) tells me the bulk of winter is behind us
  16. yeah, but we could see out a week. So it’s really not February 9. We’re really up to February 15 in a 28 day month. All we know is we’re halfway with nothing
  17. After all this we are going to put a near goose egg in the snowfall books for February? Is this really unfolding in front of us?
  18. Hes saying that that was it and hes disappointed. And hes not wrong to feel that way. it was a nice big storm followed by a prolonged cold snap but that looks like all we’re gonna get right now.
  19. The sun is real warm even on these 33° days. The end is near boys.
  20. i’m glad we got this major snow with cold to keep the snow on the ground for a while. If nothing else pans out most of us will finish the season just below normal or just above normal. And frankly, I’m looking out and I don’t see much panning out over next week About 5 weeks left in the game
  21. ORDA changed their snowmaking policy. I have never seen whales like that at Belleayre or Whiteface. It is crazy.
