We can no longer discount the extreme warmth. This new normal isnt historically normal for this area at all. Comparing these last few years to historical averages with a much cooler planet is an apples to oranges comparison. The Nino season snapped something. Nothing has been the same since then

Lots of Frost 26F. A sure sign that a warmer air mass is coming in today. But looks pretty and reminds me it is January -

Yes but again, it’s being driven by overnight lows. As several posters have pointed out. Daytime highs have not been that mild... yet. This week is a whole different story. -

Look, at least it is somewhat cold. 40 day, 25 night. We have had a lot worse in terms of January. It will snow this month. And it looks like a good chunk of it will be coldish (slightly above normal but still feel like January) I’ll take it -

The snow cover line begins right at 287 where there is elevation: Tarrytown has snow, Nyack does not. The storm was modeled perfectly. Models continue to be spot on. Disappointment source is from not excepting what the models are showing OR using one-off runs in the 24 hours prior to verify a wishcast. -

32F. That sums up my snowfall. Im driving up to belleayre today and curious as to where the accumulating snow line was. im assuming 10-30 north of 287 depending on elevation -

Just south of 287 in Westchester at 33F -
Interesting temperature gradient… It’s raining on the east side of Westchester and snow as you get closer to Hudson.

Today is my bday. In 39 years almost every bday I can remember has had snow on the ground, snow in the air, ice or rain around this date. Two of the best ones I remember: sometime around 1986 heavy rain to snow during my bday party. I was likely 4 or 5. Possibly 1996 an ice storm that left the city with a thin crusty cover of snow and ice. Snow away!

Actually, sadly, baseball as a whole has moved towards homerun hitters. It is why the game has become so boring. It is all or nothing. Just like our winters haha -

I agree. We have a good chunk of people south and east of 287. They will see rain or useless snow. -

It is too warm. We are pushing this mild January leads to snow narrative. This whole week is 3 to 5° above normal. All you do is eliminate possibilities with that airmass. You become totally dependent on track, phasing, timing. To bring in a baseball analogy because it feels like spring outside, You are hoping for a homerun because picking up runs through small ball fundamentals isnt going to work Yesterday was rain, tomorrow will be rain, the next one will be rain unless it is a perfect setup. That’s a bad position to be in if you like snow. -

You can’t discount the fact that we are running 5+ degrees above normal with no end in sight on top of the stats you posted.
