https://www.youtube.com/@WEATHERLEGENDS-METRONYCREGION Great link. I think they will be doing a video once a week. Was a Weather Watcher for Bill back in the day when I was a young teenager in Bergen County, NJ. What a great guy and taught me so much. Still love his low key, measured and no hype style. Just a great guy and not full of himself. Was very welcoming and supportive. Funny story is I went boating and flying with him and got seasick (heaving over the side of the boat) and airsick (just queasy). Flew from KTEB to KSWF for lunch (ginger ale for me). Thankfully the trip back was less bumpy although I still could not look out the window without getting a little green. I hope when the weather gets interesting again they will do some videos about any potential upcoming bigger events.

Did better today on rainfall than I was expecting. Picked up .21" between 8am and 4pm with periods of light rain. Event total = .25". Was cold and raw with temperatures hovering near 40 all day until about 5:30 with temperatures popped into the mid and upper 40's briefly as the sun poked through the clouds. Interesting solutions for temperatures this upcoming weekend. Leaning towards the cooler solutions for CNJ on north and east.

Yeah, for sure. Only .04" here as of 8am. Not expecting more than .10" for the rest of the day.

Beyond tiresome and very annoying. So freaking windy last few months.

Stunner of a day today. Was fine with shorts and a t-shirt. Disappointing to see guidance backing off on the rainfall totals. Seems like the norm lately.

Cheer up Anthony. Look at it this way. We are half way to the longest daylight of the year. In about 90 days we start the crawl back to Winter. We'll see what Winter 2025-26 brings. Time marches on. Better snow times ahead....gotta believe.

Event total here = 1.00".

Same here. Very gusty out there. Humid feel as well.

Thanks. Yet according to some nothing to see here. It has been dry and we need to start turning this around or we will be running into assorted dryness issues within 2 months. Going into the Spring and Summer 9+" down is not a good thing. Not an issue right now but it will be if this does not start reversing.

Sounds like a rough go. I hope you are doing better now.

Currently 66 - amazing day!

Up to 63 here. Really nice out. The wind of the last few days is gone and the sun is warm. Not sure why anyone would be looking for cold and snow at this point. Let's move on. Of course I would never be opposed to having an April 82 type event. Anything less forget it.

I think the snow seasons over the next 10-15 years will be telling in terms of where we are truly headed or if this current period is just a temporary downturn. I suspect through that we are slowly and steadily trending downward. At some point it should hopefully revert to something better but I would not want to guess when that might happen.

That would be great if Don can do it.

Don. Yes that was my original question. You are correct. Do you have the ability to make a chart for intervals? Both for 4" and 6"?

That chart is interesting in many ways. Not the least of which was #8 was broken by the Blizzard of 1888. Lots of great stats inside that list. Found it really interesting.

Thanks very much. We'll see how this plays out as we move through next Winter. We will make it to #4 for sure by the end of this coming November so #3 could be in play without too much trouble. The #1 position is interesting, would not have guessed that.

Don- Where is CP in terms of 6" snowfalls? I know they are working on a longest streak without 4" which will most likely be broken in late November this year I think? What about longest streak without 6"? Where do they stand on that one? Thanks in advance.

Same here. South side of house, full sun and all bulbs have broken through the mulch. Everything else in shadier parts of the yard = nothing. Grass is still very much dormant.

Received 1.35" rainfall. Much needed and so glad to get rid of all the disgusting road salt. A car wash is in the cards this weekend. Ready for Spring.

February precipitation = 3.14". February snowfall = 5.70", spread out over 7 events. Not sure any of that was worth buckling up for. Pretty sad if you ask me.

For the most part the trend since the late fall has been to show wet events only for it to gradually back off as the events near. We'll see what happens with the event mid next week. Right now looks wet, 1" plus but we'll see how it progresses as we get closer. Pattern has been overall lacking in precipitation for months now. Drought Monitor issued today showed no change over the last week with still widespread dry to moderate or severe drought Mid-Atlantic and New England. Not a big deal now but two months from now if the dryness has not eased drought conditions will ramp up quickly once into May. We need March and April to deliver with above normal rainfall over a pretty large area.

Thanks! Any idea where CP stands on <6"?

I may have missed it but where does CP stand for consecutive days with <4" of snowfall? That record is still ongoing right? Thanks in advance.
