  1. I really think you guys dig into the nitty-gritty a little bit too much. December is just 5 to 10° warmer than it used to be. the normals kind of skew it because it’s over a 30 year period, but that’s where we are at now. i’m looking at those mid 40s Christmas week and that’s pretty normal now. plus 5-10. That isn’t even a torch anymore.
  2. just left the ice-skating rink and for a second you’re fooled its winter. pouring rain and 55. I just thought about all those times that a heavy snowstorm would start with a burst of heavy snow. What a change to our Decembers in my thus far short lifetime. Like October/November weather now
  3. 2016 was also a white Christmas from most of the region. If you were on Long Island or New York City, you had grass, but the rest of us had snow cover.
  4. and 2016 was the anomaly with the one blizzard. Ironically, the strength of that blizzard driven off warmer waters and stronger storms.
  5. this is what I’ve been saying for years. People have been looking to a Nino to save us from something or reset the bar. Ninos are bad for us. And many of us believe there is no bar to reset. This is new normal. Not some switch that 2015 accidentally left on
  6. stop this bs. this is why people are so turned off by this forum. He doesn’t owe an apology to anybody. he’s looking at charts and posting what he sees. You already writing off Winter until January 15 like you have a clue. Should I call you out if we get snow on January 3? Ridiculous
  7. if the second part of that statement confirms, the first part will confirm. Which, doesnt say much, but says it all…
  8. can we establish that the linear conclusion between MJO and the type of winter weather you expect has been disrupted by AGW? it seems that guys that are relying on MJO phases for pattern changes have been shooting blanks for the past few years.
  9. 31F. Cant wait to see reports from city this morning. UHI thrives in this warm up type of day
  10. Ninos here suck in general. The back loaded end is almost always a day late and a dollar short.
  11. I just want to point out that many of us told the forum to watch this date for snow. As I said over weekend, a patented 2 day cold shot with precip shouldnt be dismissed
  12. Come on, we are not going for a +5 month here. Even you don’t believe that.
  13. No we wont. Stop the dramatic stuff. It serves none of us well. 1. we cant get over 100 anymore because the air is so damn saturated. 2. our summer climate is now very much like Florida minus the intensity of the sun. You will run your AC from May to Oct and tell everyone you know that its great “because everything is air conditioned” just like my Floridian relatives have said for 30 years. We will adapt and for the most part be fine 29F this morning…
  14. Not to digress, where did you find this one? Its beautiful
  15. There’s nothing to get upset about with regards to weather. If you’re lucky you’re here for 80 years. You’re a blip, so am I. if it’s cold, wear a jacket, if it’s warm, wear shorts. Humanity is not willing to make the drastic changes that will be necessary to stop carbon dioxide. So they will adapt to a new warmer world.
  16. spectacular conditions today at Belleayre!
  17. It’s been sitting there as a possibility for several days now. Cold air in place. definitely worth mentioning. 28F this morning. Nice to be back in mid December temperatures
  18. this x1000. That icy glaze in early January that set the foundation for the rest of the winter!
  19. I want to see airmass and storm track meet. this week just a continuation of the bad pattern we’ve been seeing for the past several winters let’s see what next week holds
  20. Didnt Sept end a decimal point positive? Or was it 9/2015 all over again? Too many Gospel preachers on here when they have Mad magazine in their hands
  21. The problem has been very typical for December. Up and down temperatures with more upside than downside and when the storms come, it’s always ridiculously warm due to cutting. if you could get something going on Thursday or Friday of this week, it would make the situation not so bad. That doesn’t seem to happen anymore around here. Certainly not in December. We have 3 BN days starting tomorrow. Followed by 4 AN days with greater deviation and rain. No way to run a business ahem December
