    I’m going to say mid 2000s. It was the middle of January. At the end of the week we had 6+ inches on the ground in city

    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

    Are we going to have the rare day where we under perform today? Only 29F at 1130a
  4. the_other_guy
    That was obvious from late December onward. People just didnt want to see it
  5. the_other_guy
    34F when I left at 4 am. 37F when I arrived home at 5pm. Says so much and nothing at all.

    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
  9. the_other_guy
    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
  12. the_other_guy
    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.

    Moderate sleet at the moment in Hastings on Hudson. Minor accumulations on asphalt...As I’m starting to find out because I’m out running like a nut
  15. the_other_guy
    Moderate sleet at the moment for as long as that lasts 37F
  16. the_other_guy
    Hastings on Hudson
  17. the_other_guy
    A very icy 23F to start the new year. Ice and frost on every surface
  18. the_other_guy
    I think you’re spot on
  19. the_other_guy
    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.
  20. the_other_guy
    JFK got what 8 inches? To me you can’t say the coast got zero. As for upcoming storms, things have to line up perfect to manufacture cold air. A general 5 degrees AN going forward.
  21. the_other_guy
    We just had that last week. When Central Park has 10 inches, the Catskills have 2 feet, and Binghamton needs a yard stick, that is as good as a region-wide crushing gets.

    I would say to the average person, it is true. Even before the last two seasons, we entered into a very warm paradigm that saw larger storms drop snow and quickly melt. The February storm 3 years ago comes to mind. It got cold for the storm. The week before and after were ridiculously warm. It was gone before sunset in the city Someone above mentioned 2015 with rose colored glasses. What a disaster of a winter! Starting with the Nino Dec. The biggest storm ever was gone in one week! Had that storm not occurred, the city had 2 inches of snow for the year. To the average person looking out their window, reading Wikipedia, Seeing snow on the ground in New York City is increasingly rare. A recent storm that stuck around for 7 days cures all ills; but that is increasingly rare

    Can we stop doing this? Please. For the record, you are probably right. But we really cant say this with any certainty.

    Belleayre had an avalanche. Snow right into the lodge. No injures, lots of damage. They say they had 6.5 inches of rain on their website Still closed.

    Every major ski resort in the Catskills closed. Unprecedented on Xmas Day
