Was following along on some live feeds overnight with some of the orchards usings helicopters and burn barrels. What year was it recently where everyone lost a bunch of apples? 2016 maybe?

Not sure of the year but remember it. Looking at my records, my last freeze in 2016 was on 4/21. In 2020 the last freeze was 5/14 and it was on 5/15 in 2023, maybe one of those years?

Low of 24, was below freezing from 10:45pm to 8:10am, a solid hard freeze, pun intended.

Had some flakes in the past 30 minutes. 

33 now after a low of 30, some flurries on radar around the area but I haven’t seen any or any reports of flakes at ground level. 

.64" looks like will be my total, blue skies to my west moving in as the sun starts to shine through, 41 degrees.

Looks like some frozen precip is working into the west side of the Catskills. I don't want to turn the heat back on...

I’m pretty sure my downstairs zone will be on at least one morning in the next couple of days. 50 out there now with .18” thru the tipper so far. 

Sunny and 72 up here along the Canadian border. What a day. 

What a day, should've bet the over on the forecast high of 70, up to 74 and barely a cloud in the sky.

would you happen to have a report there for March 13-15, 2023 long duration elevation snowstorm? @snywx as well

That appears to be his total up top which I pulled from the 2023 burbs thread.

3.1" for me, my notes say "heavy snow during the morning and early afternoon but temp of 33, melts mostly on contact"

85/61 at 7pm on 4/16 is just plain stupidity as Forky fully embraces and dances naked.

Yeah ive tried to in the past too just didnt do it the last few years. I dont need it looking perfect, i dont care too much about weeds and dandelions and stuff, i just dont want bare patches and shit growth. 

Have you ever aerated it? That can do wonders.

My lawn is a disaster. I give up. 

I've always done better working in the lawn later in the season, less competition from weeds and birds eating the seed. Just have to hope to get some rain too and not a dry spell in September.

Had a gusty storm blast through here just before 1am, KMGJ gusted to 40mph.

Your house must have 0 insulation.

 

Agreed, I live in an old ass house (mid 1800's)with poor insulation and it only got to 70, windows closed, on my second floor yesterday after a high of 86.

After a low of 51, got ot 86 as a high, 84 now.

Well its that time of the year folks 

 

84 here

 

 

As much as I dislike the heat, its hard for me to consider this swamp ass weather with the dews relatively low when compared to what has become normal around here in the summer.

seems about right. That will help me.... i was close just have to move the 3" line down a bit

 

 

It was a very interesting storm, there was speculation that there was a down sloping factor coming off the Taconics in addition to where the banding set up. I know over near Milford PA it was a disaster with lots of down limbs and trees, I was fine missing that.

A report from Campbell Hall from Mar 1-3, 2018 would be helpful. I feel like im walking in the dark in some areas with such an extreme snowfall gradient 

1.2" total. Here are my notes on that storm:

"N30 6:43pm.  Snow at dawn changed to rain and then back and forth, all snow in the afternoon but then stuck in between bands.  Central and Eastern OC missed out while other areas got rocked."

I'll get you something today. 

25 for the low. 

Got down to 20 this morning, forecast is for 28 tonight here.

I saw a few flakes earlier, this will likley be the last day this season.

Much brighter now, sun is about to break through, temp up to 48. I prefer it cool when doing the spring cleanup anyway so no complaints from me.

That map is laughable for my neck of the woods.
