Winter cancelled/uncancelled banter 25/26

Per the Department of Commerce's new overseers: Why should we spend money on website improvements or an app when people can just get their weather forecasts from FaceBook or Twitter. Allegedly

I've never heard it called that but this is probably the event. These are hand transcribed central park observations neatly written by a very young weenie. The plus sign was said weenie's convention for separating sustained winds from gusts. Check out that pressure and the temperature drop! That was a flash freeze for the ages during the morning rush hour.

Here's a cynical take: So if anywhere on the island gets accumulating snow they can say they called it. They probably have forecasted little or nothing nearby so that if that happens, they can say they called it. Don't know if that is true, but false verification has become a national pastime.

We haven't had a calm night here during the last week so it's been a little warmer. LI Sound is doing its thing. Lowest it has been here is 9 on the 21st.

Low here 11.5⁰

Not sure what is official, but I round to the even number.

If we wind up with a period of strong northeast or east-northeast winds here, that will make a mess in terms of coastal flooding, but it will also introduce the possibility of some sound effect snow. Didn't check dT or wind direction, but it seems reasonable. Kinda rare, unlikely, but I'm grasping at straws here. Might work for the NJ coast. That one ephemeral depiction of a 950s benchmark blizzard with a 1040s high over the Midwest would have been something to tell our grandkids about. Maybe I'll tell them about the great model run of '26.

I had to think too much to figure out that he was using 15:1 ratios at all of those locations. If this thing hits LI, it'll be around 10:1.

I think there was one in January 1948 with 4 or 5 inches during a great stretch of winter.
