I love my SUV. 6 cylinder hybrid that gets awful gas mileage even with the $10000 hybrid sticker on the back. I wouldn’t give it up for a decimal point data change 50 years from now. And there are a lot of people just like me. actually, most people are like me. That’s the problem Enjoy November in January. nothing is going to change.

Man are you on the wrong forum? This group hates cold and snow! haha Welcome
-
51.1 is warmest March for CPK. Gotta make a run for that unless something changes for second half
-
Squall Line just went thru. Reading a book in shorts on couch listening to the downpour I had to remind myself it is 2/28
-
not nearly as warm today as forecasted. Continues the trend of the winter of the warmest departures being over the Midwest. Low 50s all day
-
No way. Maybe a sleeper team. But dont have high expectations
-
It is amazing that Im reading about wild fire smoke and tornados in Illinois in February! And you guys are looking for snow in NYC in march. Like the Jets building a case for the Lombardi Trophy haha
-
40 degree back to back winters with plenty of precip. There’s absolutely no comparison whatsoever to the 60s or 70s or 80s. that’s just trying to gloss over and compromise with reality We lost the snow because it’s too warm.
-
The arborvitaes are terrible in the snow you gotta clean them off right away if not they never go back. But my pine trees, the magnolia bush even the cedars took a hit
-
I don’t know about anybody else but for this non-winter, there’s not a tree or shrub or fence on my property that has not been damaged by the heavy wet snow that froze over on several occasions. Very messy as I assess spring clean up
-
But havent days of High 80s/High Humidity increased at the expense of days in the Low 90s with lower humidity? It is very noticeable how we cant get over 95 with ease anymore. We have settled into a Florida tropical like summer climate from mid June through mid September in which high dews keep overnights real warm and temper daytime highs while feeling absolutely miserable and buggy at all times
-
And it’s still gonna be +10, which really says it all
-
Has to be the warmest two weeks of March on record if it holds. Solid +10 February was also supposed to open like that but muted a bit with cold shots as it actually opened
-
It is impressive how relentless this non winter has been. The fact that the first 10 days of March are going to be in the 50s and 60s after this winter warmth is simply astounding
-
It is all theory at this point. To be fleshed out over the decades ahead
-
The NE warming is alarming and completely off any chart or estimate possible. Unless something changes in this trend, winter as we know it in Adirondacks is changed. It will be non existent here. No climatologist had this depth of warming in any analysis. This seems to be a radical regional effect of Indian/Pacific Ocean warming. Someone could write a whole thesis on why this is happening and where it is going
-
18F this morning. Nice bite!
-
That’s not what I read. I don’t want to swear by it, but it seems like the castle was there without an issue. There was concern that they wouldn’t have enough ice, but they did and they finished it the day before.
-
Guess changing around that Winter Carnival was a good thing!
-
where are you in the Adirondacks? It seems like you have to be in the high peaks area now to really hold snow up there.
-
having a house in Queens and a house in wading River, you were much more likely to have a stabilized snowfall regime in Queens then in Wading River in the 1990s. That started to go crazy with super heavy snowfalls along the coast as we got into the 2000s.
-
it isn’t linear with Central Park. Jfk is very influenced by the water, and as somebody that lived in wading river for most of his life, I could tell you that it wasn’t unusual to have an all or nothing type winter. The water is always too warm for snow. what has changed since the 1990s is that the “inland” urban stations are much warmer. And the types of snowfall we get are now from the water, larger storms pulling in cold air. Less frequent and stronger. It Rearranges the deck chairs on the titanic. There’s a high possibility that if you are adjacent to the coast you could jackpot. we’ve seen this on Long Island several times over the last 15 to 20 years. It isnt a normal phenomenon in our area. 287 N and W should jackpot based on historic climatology. that’s why you’ve had all that record snow in places like Islip. over the last few years, you have seen a return to the more historical jackpot areas as it is simply too warm to snow. N and W are getting scraps in a declining snow regime and urban areas are getting shut out altogether

Could my car be that far off??
-
Was it supposed to get this warm today? I had a forecast high of 46. I’m now up to 54.
-
I noted the same thing on Sunday. There’s a hard line just north of Duchess and the snow doesn’t start again till Lake George. Crazy winter. Im glad its over. Sad state of affairs
