Same here about two weeks ago. More than I have seen at any time of the year. Lots of bird activity.
-
Pretty much the same here. Daffodils are 95% in bloom, at least on the south side of the house. Shady locations are lagging behind but still ahead of schedule. Never have seen so much bird activity so early, that started almost 2 weeks ago.

Was sooo close. If the surface low track was about 75 miles more to the east it would have had crippling effects across the NYC metro area. It was bad as it was but could have been much worse with much more snow and drifting if track was displaced a bit to the east. The 60 hour 4 panel DIFAX prog is framed and hanging on my wall to this day.

Nice read on February 2024 and Winter 23-24 for NJ. That freakish snow event on 2/16 - 2/17 saved the winter for locations in the CNJ area. Take that event out and it would have been a true ratter. https://www.njweather.org/content/lost-winter-february-2024-winter-20232024-recaps

3.7 above....do I hear 4.0.... Has been rising as the month progresses as have most of the previous months. Where March finishes will depend on how "chilly" and for how long it lasts next week. I think a 4.0 or a little higher finish is quite possible. Beautiful day today....If not going to snow I'll take this over cool, damp and rainy anytime.

Amazing stats there. I remember all 3 of those general events. Especially the early December bitter cold. As a young kid it seemed even more impressive than it actually was. If memory serves there was 4-6" snow Christmas night into the early morning hours of the 26th. Was supposed to be rain but storm tracked just far enough offshore for a 4-6" plastering. Pattern seemed to flip and hold right after Hurricane Belle went through.

Been ripping here all day. Frequent gusts to 40 mph. Peak was just before daybreak though with gusts to near 50 mph., maybe a bit more.
-
Finally some fresh snow cover in some places.
-
Winds howled here all night. Just ripping at times. Must have been some heavier snow squalls overnight as well. Patches of snow scattered around and on sheltered rooftops.
-
Numerous snow showers here this afternoon and one legit moderate snow squall. Temperature dropped to 34 with that. Moderate snow was coming down horizontal with very gusty winds. All melted on contact.
-
2.08" rain here last 24 hours. Temperatures most of that time were in the upper 30's. Another wet month in progress. Thankfully a dry and warm week coming up.
-
Flood Watch posted for parts of Mt. Holly CWA. They are going with 1-2" rainfall. Thankfully a drier pattern once beyond this. At least for a while.
-
Thought this was interesting. La Nina seems to be coming on rather quickly as the Nino collapses. Will be interesting to watch this over the next weeks and months. That is some rapid cooling over a very short period of time. Latest EURO suggesting quite a busy Atlantic hurricane season. Possible naming frenzy but impacts to be be determined.
-
1.11" rainfall last 24 hours and 1.61" last 3 days.
-
Pretty impressive satellite picture this morning. https://www.meteo.psu.edu/ewall/PSUGOES_PA2/loop30v.html Raining heavily here attm.
-
My focus now turns to actually wanting warmer weather and avoiding Spring and Summer Drought. Winter is over and I'm ready to move on.
-
The howling winds from the overnight have died down but it is still kind of gusty out there. Event rainfall total = 1.05" (.68" and .37"). Total Precipitation for February = 2.45". Y.T.D. = 10.67". Snowfall February = 11.5". Snowfall for Season to date = 22.2".
-
Thanks Don. My guess would have been #4 or 5. Real close to tying at least for #5.
-
Hi Don, What does the latest "Winter Futility Chart" look like with just 1.5 days to go before meteorological winter is finished?
-
Rainfall last 24 hours .66". Snow gone except for plowed mounds.
-
With the way the warmth over performs I'll take the over on those temps.
-
A reading from the book of Revelations. The end of days are near. Repent.
-
Ya think! Some real diehards this season. Some are STILL hanging on for dear life thinking their forecasts will be vindicated with a cold and snowy March.
-
Yeah, the hose finally got turned off. We'll see where we go from here.

If you watch the video you will hear how he had to fight management at WCBS to a degree to educate people and not dumb things down. You'll never see anything like that today. Most of the time he had to do it in under 90 seconds. He was also great at NJ101.5. I suspected at the time he was shown the door but he confirmed that last night on the podcast. Wake up at mid-night, drive an hour to work to start at 2am then leave for home at 10am. For 25 YEARS! He loved what he did.
