  1. I'm guessing a lot of storms back then were stronger than they were actually measured. Now we have tons of flights going in, much better satellite images, tons of chasers, many more stations and way more ways to measure storms as they are happening. A lot of tech happened in 50 years time to get better measurements.
  2. Its doing a decent job getting some of those leaves down. temp only got 1 degree warmer than forecast here.
  3. Whomever is the forecaster that can find the cold period(s) inside the warmer winters wins and deserves major props. Otherwise I think we all know that it is going to be warmer the vast majority of the time and it doesn't take much skill anymore to predict that.
  4. Got to 35 last night. Captured some nice northern lights pics too. You all posted enough of them, so I won't
  5. But no warnings in the area, is that what the message means above the chart?
  6. I think tonight is the night to turn it on, I held off thus far
  7. It is a house on a small exclusive island, so its high no matter how close to the beach you are.
  8. I wonder what their hit rate was out of the 126? 8, 10, 16
  9. HM does post elsewhere sometimes, but I think that place likes to keep things small. If he ever posts some sort of forecast, I'll share what I can. I think sometimes these guys don't like people questioning them or disagreeing, at least it seems that way. I miss Isotherm's posts. He didn't live too far away from me either, so it was always nice when a storm was approaching to get his insight.
  10. Wait. It was your first 40s? I've been in the 40s like 9x, and as low as 43. 1st 40s was 9/3
  11. Our area is boom/bust most of the time anyway. Only 7 times in the past 37 years that I've been measuring have I gotten to within 25% +/- our average. It is usually well below or above average.
  12. Agreed. Even though temps were colder, if you lived in the tri-state area for the 70s and 80s, I'm sure many thought that was the new norm by getting the 2 worst decades for snowfall back to back.
  13. I say we use all the years, not just 30. Not sure why we even do that. If we have all the data, use it all.
  14. Has nothing to do with it. Move on, it isn't 2012 anymore. They make new normals for a reason. It would be funny on the news if they said today's normal high is 75, but if were living in 1950, it would 72.
  15. When do you drop saying this? Were people still saying this in 2019 before we moved the 30 year average?
  16. Happy between yesterday and today got .19"
  17. This had me at 80 for today, got to 75
  18. I get it, I had only 12.5" total here that season. But many seasons one larger storm makes it so this area doesn't have a total dud.
  19. Who was measuring this from 1850 until the 1900s, or were these recreated?
  20. You can say that about a lot of seasons though, where one decent storms makes a season.
  21. How's your concrete looking? Powerwash it?
