  1. Mr. G should remember. I was filling in at CBS NY at the time and told Steve Deshler it looks like a major snowstorm for our area. Mr. G laughed it off.
  2. I'll be gone, but most pundits are predicting doom by 2050.
  3. Wow, negative digits in central and northern Quebec, but looks like it won't do us any good...
  4. Before he even threw a pitch off the mound? I say there was something wrong at the end of last year, which the team ignored and figured it would go away before next season? Perhaps even if the Mets signed Snell and Montgomery, it wouldn't have mattered?
  5. I was EXTREMELY skeptical of the brief cool down this February for the very same reasons...
  6. So you're saying I should have had a high protein diet in my early years? A little late for that...
  7. I don't know, hamsters seem to enjoy their life, living in our kitchen when I was a child. He was very attentive and affectionate. My mother used to feed him different things she was cooking. Some people "cage" dogs. That I don't agree with.
  8. Yeah, they are guaranteed to cover their base costs...
  9. Is this "what came first, the chicken or the egg?" I would thing the increase in temperatures is driving the el Nino to become warmer each year. The El nino just distributes (or concentrates) the wealth? Because if the El Nino is actually causing the increase in warmth and not as much the greenhouse gases, do we have to re-assess?
  10. Not sure if I ever heard that about the 2016 el nino. Is that possible that a previous "system" can have that kind of impact?
  11. Not sure if I can digest the study in this link concerning the oceans absorbing atmospheric heat... https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9452516/
  12. I just caught a bit of something that Jeff Berradelli posted about potential upwelling cooling the ocean's surface. But wouldn't that eventually just overall heat the entire ocean column? Wouldn't the surface heat just get transferred deeper into the oceans? Asking for a friend...
  13. NOTHING left here in Garwood (cental Union County). Only piles left from shoveling. Anything that gone sun (12") melted by Tuesday. Considering we were near normal temperature wise, and I don't consider mid February to be a bad "sun angle" yet...
  14. 12" here in Jersey melted in less than a week.
  15. The Tuesday storm started a little later than what was progged a week in advance, allowing the "cooler" air to advance, and the storm was further south. The cooler air mass was firmly in place for Saturday's storm, so I still say the SNOW Triangle: Moisture, cold and luck.
  16. That's where the cold air was earlier this season. I was shocked when we got anything that came close to winter this year. For intent and purposes, looks like its over. Can never rule out a March "storm"...
  17. Went to the Bahamas either in late March or April one year, and it was so cold, you couldn't go in the pools or the ocean.
  18. 12" of snow since Tuesday, and all melted in the sunny areas. I mean it hasn't been above normal temperatures and it's only the middle of February.
  19. For me, last year was the year without a winter, in this region. Although I realize places like Minnesota have been unseasonably warm this year.
  20. The "walking to school uphill in 3 feet of snow" probably evolved over many decades, AND not necessarily occuring in the immediate NYC metro area. Also, no doubt, people from eastern PA and other outlying areas, moved into the area during the 50's and 60s, and brought tales of heavy snow with them.
  21. Wrong. Snow hole. By the time this was published, the heaviest snow was already over (for the area highlighted).
  22. February 14, 2007 I have listed as a mix of light snow, sleet and freezing rain (maybe 1.5" total sleet snow accumulation)? My notes show that a low was forecast to move into the Great Lakes, but rather slid across southen PA. A secondary formed off the Carolinas and moved north. Heavy snow warnings posted, but warmer air worked its way into mid levels, resulting in a mixed bag. Is this correct? I think the 5.5" sleet storm occurred March 17, 2007?
  23. Sounds like the NYC snow hole was worse than mine. Even with a perfect setup, and radar showing the heaviest yet to come, it cut off anyways. That's why I say, snow is a miracle in NYC metro area.
