  1. Early March is fine-but once you get past 3/10 or so, daytime accums get tough unless it's really heavy or windy/cold. March 18 was awesome but had that been in Feb, we would have had twice the snow easily
  2. with no ATL blocking, I would not say cutters are gone-even with cold highs, there's the risk a storm slips b/w highs and goes to the lakes. Agree it's a better pattern, but can't agree that it's a good or great pattern.
  3. been hearing about a great pattern for 2 years...not much to show for it. Like Allsnow said above the chances for an 05 or 15 recovery are slim. Hopefully we can get a snowstorm or two...I'd be happy with that at this point. Anything more than that would be a huge win.
  4. Congrats! Best day to have a kid-you get the tax credit for the whole year! LOL. Mine are 10 (twins)-goes fast, enjoy every minute despite some long days and sleepless nights
  5. 3 of the last 5 Marches have featured above normal snows here. If you go back to pre-2010, snow was scarce in March but more plentiful in December-interesting how there's certain patterns over a period of time.
  6. it was a weird storm-gave ACY something like 15 inches but 20 miles inland was nothing. I was living outside of philly at the time and forecasts were 6-12 and we didn't see a flake. It was around 2/20/89 or something like that. Not much else other than that-it was colder though once we got to to Feb 89. Dec 88-Jan 89 were infernos with little to no snow.
  7. seeing 93 and 07 in there are interesting. 89 was garbage the rest of the way for the most part.
  8. Never said it would suck, but I'm starting to doubt we see anything memorable. There was no ridging 2 days ago on models now that's showing up....(and we know how that works-name a winter warmup that did not over-perform) Some cold mixed in with warmups, hopefully a snowstorm or two to salvage things. Last time NYC saw a storm of more than 4 inches? Nov 2018. Let's hope we can at least get that and hopefully more. Give me a Feb 2006 storm and I'd call it a day for sure.
  9. Not looking great all the sudden. January could have an incredible +++ departure if next weekend ends up warm. NYC is something like +10 right now.
  10. Last 10 days of December were bad too-temps in the 40's, no precip, yawn city.
  11. good track just need to speed up that cold air injection that's in the great lakes
  12. Nor does the low over northern Lake Michigan!
  13. Completely agree-if it's not going to snow, give me what we had this weekend...
  14. yep, now I remember that one. Horrid outside of a mid and late month storm and I remember the 2nd one busting-got like an inch or something.
  15. I don't recall a winter like that. Last year was close-but the biggest snow was in Nov, without that we would have gone close to snowless until the March events came...
  16. if we get to 2/1 and we're still where we are now, it's all but over-usually if the pattern doesn't really change by then, it's not going to. Last year is a good example-we did get a 6-10 day stretch in early March but by and large things stayed the same, mild and relatively snowless
  17. that's 72/73 type bad. Even 01-02 and 11-12 had 4-6 inches by the end of January.
  18. IF NYC gets to 1/31 with 1.5 inches of snow that has to be among the all time lows for the first 2/3 of met winter
  19. I'm going out of LGA Sunday morning-headed to CO to ski for a week-I'll get my fill of snow out there.
  20. I have yet to take out a snow shovel or snow blower. Big 5 gallon bucket of rock salt has been sitting in my garage untouched since Dec '18. Feels like the 1980's have come back
  21. Agree. And it was not even a true arctic airmass. Once this became slower and drier we were in trouble. By the time precip gets here we are warmer with south winds
  22. close the shades for a week. It's not worth losing sleep over. More important things in life...
