December 2020 General Discussions & Observations Thread
the_other_guy replied to bluewave's topic in New York City Metro
Can we stop posting this? The region gets 20-30 inches of snow per year. Let’s stop making it sound like we live in Jacksonville. it is perfectly legitimate to expect and look forward to snow of some sort in the NYC metro -

You obviously haven’t checked out the catskills. A freaking disaster -

I agree with you 100%. I just want to clarify what I said. You are going to approach the middle of December with a below normal departure. You would need unprecedented warmth in 15 days to get December into the top three warmest in New York City. I’m not rushing anything... I’m just saying that is a stretch even in the 2010s. -

Doubtful in Dec for NYC. Frankly, you begin running out of days to make that happen. We are already way colder than 2015. You ride that out this week you get to mid month. At which point you would need 2 weeks of unprecedented Nino warmth to get there. you would need to get above 43.7F for the average to notch past 1984 for a number 3 slot -

Might as well. A few days ago the models said something else. Sounds ridiculous...but -

If we couldn’t believe the forecast more than five days out when it was cold, how come we preach gospel when its showing warmth? Because that is the default state? Just curious. On a separate note, this forums swings wildly through emotions by the day based on the latest model. I enjoy the knowledge on here. But geez -

Thank you! Lot of wishcasting on here. my temp actually climbed over last hour. wet flakes were just that, not a region wide transition as the storm exited. Temps are still in the 40s. Exactly as predicted all week -
That was a very large band of heavy rain that went through at 6:30a In a different climate this would’ve been a major snowstorm 42F

Have you been in the same forum over the last week? Guys have been going on and on over the great look and great pattern. I kept pointing out that the first week of December was getting warmer and warmer in the midst of all the cold and snow talk. 50 and rain on Monday. 50 and rain this weekend. 50 and rain next weekend. Not even close -

32F as a sea of warmth with transient cold shots and warm rain continues. Very consistent pattern through several years of shifting blocking, pac jet, mjo, nina, nino, and month. I predict it will continue...without ever looking at Day 10 on a LR forecast -

Inlaws have 10 inches of snow on ground in Cleveland. We are talking about another week in the 50s and a rainstorm -
November 2020 General Discussions & Observations Thread
the_other_guy replied to Rtd208's topic in New York City Metro
Agreed. It is all lining up against prolonged cold. New normal is close to 3 degrees above normal. AN is 5 plus degrees...Not through a few days of extreme warmth, but a persistent above normal that wont dissipate. Snowstorms require luck now. Prolonged snow on ground is non existent. We will see if this is a few year trend or not, but I have a feeling you are right -

Cold air side, I am surprised nobody’s talking about most of the first week of December now running above normal. A change from just a few days ago 55F at 7 am. Doing yard work in shorts on 12/1 -

64F at night on November 30. I sure as heck hope we hit the warmest ever because this level and depth of warmth is just unprecedented. -

The city got rid of a lot of the native trees on the street (according to my cousin who works in the Parks Dept) Because they were susceptible to the Asian Long Horned Beetle. But let’s face it, with the warm overnights, the city (not so much surrounding area yet) is in a different climate zone then it was 30 years ago. That is a huge reason for leaves hanging on in the concrete jungle -

62F Sun peaking. Someone has to make a run at 70F today Couldn’t ask for better weather for a pandemic Thanksgiving -
I always wondered why they can’t just plant a tree and leave it there all year around. It would be the most famous urban tree in the world. Although, in fairness, a lot of the Rock Center trees have been in distressed situations and needed to be removed anyway (at least they usually say that)
