    This has been quite the impressive little cold snap. The winds were really sustained for quite some time. It would have been plenty cold for ski areas to pump out more snow, but in southern NY and southern New England the return on investment just isn't there this time of year. Vermont is doing quite well though. After last week's warmth though I got spoiled. If it isn't going to snow, let's get back to warmth!

    But they have that! The link I attached is that. But I think maybe you are talking about weather engineering? Like to be able to notably bring down the humidity across all of say NYC? One of the big limiters to that is the energy needed to do something like that.

    The scientists have created a device that sucks humidity out of the air and converts it to usable fresh water. It's called a dehumidifier and is available at retailers nationwide! You'd just need to add some minerals and what not to make the distilled water drinkable. There are also larger systems for water needs: http://www.drinkable-air.com/info.htm.

    I'd love it if we could keep the snow pack right to April 1st. My 2 year old is absolutely loving the snow. We are really giving serious thought about a move to Vermont. I do wish there was just a switch in April we could throw to summer mode.

    Keep the windows up next time. Best to keep the ice outside the car ;-)

    Funny snow storms are like the bedroom I guess. Yet we are always hopeful that round two delivers. I think we can get another 1-4 inches depending on the area and development.

    Now this is a beautiful storm. It is like living in a snow globe. Huge flakes and it is REALLY coming down.

    I really do want this to pan out. We lost a lot of snow depth this week. Would be cool to have another big snow. I am noticing that the colder temperatures seem to be moderating in the long range again.

    I’ve been really thinking a lot about a mountain house at some point in my life. Just love having snow cover. This storm would be a nice freshener for our snow pack.

    This storm really helped change the tune of this winter. Really nice snow for most of the day here in Tuckahoe. I wish the slop that we ended with could have still been powder, but beggars cannot be choosers. My wife even commented that I always seem happier in winter when there is snow on the ground. I said of course, it is bright and beautiful when there is snow.

    This is great! Ripping snow here. Although the sad thing is covid 'killed the snow day' since many can now work remotely. Even so, I will take some time off to get outside and play in the snow with my 2 year old who is beyond excited.

    I like events like that that are truly historic but the damage it did was crazy. I was in CT for that one. But in talking more of the nuisance snows. Big storms are always fun. But I would much rather be bundled up with snow right now then walking in a lighter jacket with wet and warm conditions today. I absolutely hate this type of weather.

    I know we have and I hate it. It is worthless snow after March 15th, just melts fast and makes you think of shoulda, coulda, woulda. And if we get a big one after then I am even more angry because we could have had it when we could actually use it. I don't know what to tell you, I love snow storms, but the whole point of snow to me is to ski, play with my son, or just hike in the snow. Sure tracking is fun, but what's the point if you don't actually enjoy snow? If it snows over night and melts the next morning, did it even snow? I get many will disagree with that, but it's how I feel. I'd much rather have weekly 2-4 inches with minimal melting than one massive storm that melts in 2-5 days. Although I do enjoy a rare massive storm.

    Yes but he meant met winter (December, January, February). March 1st is the beginning of meteorological spring. I'm hoping we get something going soon, my two year old keeps begging for snow!
  15. JustinRP37
    Can't blame him for being frustrated. It is January 8th and after Sunday my highs will be in the 40s and increasing over the next week. Most ski areas are still not even close to 100% open. Winter clock is ticking. Now sure a big snowstorm can and still is likely to happen, but I say this each year, I enjoy snow sports not just snow storms. I got a few good days of playing in the snow with my son, but it is still winter and even lakes aren't freezing. Might not even be able to get our annual VT trip in with all the restrictions.
  16. JustinRP37
    If only he posted that slight earlier and got this warning haha. Is that because if the water main break?
  17. JustinRP37
    Really? I’ve been seeing a lot of the same usual epic winter ahead lately on Twitter. Granted I rarely log on these days. Most of the true pros I follow went below average to average. A few of the skiing guys I follow are down about this winter. I’m just busy trying to pack up for the move, but sure hope for snow in Putnam County!
  18. JustinRP37
    Just wondering has Twitter Wx ever predicted a normal to below average snow season? Because typically all I ever see there is above average snow, especially from the #natgas crew.

    Merry Christmas! I have never seen snow melt as fast as last night. Combine with losing power for a few hours and trees toppling we had an adventurous Christmas Eve night. One a child wakes up on Christmas, even if it is 4am, good luck getting them back to sleep! It feels way too warm once again on Christmas.
  20. JustinRP37
    Yup for a few more weeks at least. Moving up to Carmel soon. But we love Tuckahoe!
  21. JustinRP37
    Yeah sleeting quite a bit now in Tuckahoe. Have a good amount of snow and definitely blowing and drifting. Might have a hard time getting to those forecasted amounts though.
  22. JustinRP37
    I'm moderate snow in Tuckahoe.
  23. JustinRP37
    Wow the wind and the snow is intense in Tuckahoe!
  24. JustinRP37
    Well my two year-old absolutely loved the snow! Took some time getting him in! Before the storm started I asked him if he liked the snow or beach better. The answer was a clear "beach". Now that answer after the storm started is a clear "snow". Very interesting storm out there. Near whiteout now!

    Tell him that! I feel like I am the baby and he is the energizer bunny. I guess I'm a dollar store battery and he is a premium brand.
