Love the nostalgic turn this thread has taken. My journey was AccuWx —> Bill Evans board —> Tristateweather —> Eastern —> Here. Anyone remember a poster on the Bill Evans board named “hani345.” They lived in Newburgh and would always post punctuation-free sentences like: “Bill how windy is it gonna be please Bill I’m scared….”

I read through the last two pages and your post reassured me that I’m not alone. Also, why does the thread title keep changing?

That’s a top-notch list to make if you are hoping for a snowy rest of the winter as well. I genuinely do not understand how any winter wx lovers in the Tri-State found December disappointing. Plenty of reasons for optimism this year after a string of true ratters.

Can confirm about an even 6 inches in Lindy.

Still snowing steadily at my parents’ house in Lindenhurst (SW Suffolk). This latest band has delivered nicely. About 5.5 inches on the ground now.

Ok.

That deep-winter, tundra feel to it. Perfection!

Just left my parents’ in Lindenhurst (SW Suffolk) to head back to the city. Can confirm that light snow was falling while I was waiting on the platform.

Man never have I understood a perspective so little. After a few shutout years, the tristate has several inches of snow OTG two weeks into met winter in the middle of the holiday season. It’s a great weekend to be a NYC winter wx lover! The last few winters, I’ve had a “close the shades” mentality. Not this year though. We are definitely working against a broader backdrop of a warming climate and less snowiness on a decadal timeframe, but I’m growing confident that this is the year we start cycling up and out of the recent nadir of craptastic winters.

Unapologetically, it’s 100% cozy vibes for me, engendered by cheesy Xmas movies. The holiday just doesn’t seem real for me when we are torching during it.

I distinctly remember you and I on the Bill Evans board discussing this exact surprise on that day.

Can’t believe how long I’ve known the guy from our fun little world here. Talk to us @HurricaneJosh!

Stuck patterns FTW. You really can’t go wrong betting on continuity this decade if you’re a seasonal forecaster.

It’s been stuck in hyperdrive for the better part of a decade now. Any insights on how long things like this usually last?

Yeah this period is painful, but still nothing like the late 80s and late 90s ones.
