  1. Time sensitive, but beautiful sky at Montauk atm. https://hamptons.com/downtown-circle-montauk/
  2. 3/6/1990 Islip 4.2" Patchogue 6.0" Riverhead 4.5" LaGuardia 4.4" Central Park 3.1" JFK 1.9" 4/7/90 Bridgehampton 3.0" Patchogue 3.0" Islip 3.0" Westbury 2.6" LaGuardia 0.9" Central Park 0.6" JFK 0.5"
  3. Snow cover is important, but I think the effect of lake water temperatures or lake ice on the temperatures in downstate NY is less than some here seem to think. If you live on the south shore of Lake Erie, then it is significant.
  4. 2/14/1940 Central Park - 9.0" Farmingdale - 11.0" Babylon - 9.5" Setauket - 7.5" Bridgehampton - 5.2" Riverhead - 5.5"
  5. "Device" is a stretch. I just turn a 4" cocorahs gage upside down and push it into the snow, slide a piece of aluminum flashing under it, and bring it inside to melt. It's not perfect, but it's easy enough and at least seems to be in the ballpark.
  6. Melted core sample was 0.93" from 6.4" of snow (just under 7:1). It was pretty much all frozen; maybe a drop or two of rain mixed initially, but maybe not. It looked like all sleet. There could have been a hundredth or two that escaped, but I have no way of determining that.
  7. Sleet / snow mix now. Didn't expect to see any snow for a few hours.
  8. Won't be the first heavy snowfall following a 60⁰ Superbowl weekend.
  9. The bar is even lower if we take the 1 year moving average. With so much variability for so long, I have no confidence on what we will experience as average snowfall, which is affected by more than just average temperatures. If we don't get something in the next 7 or 8 weeks, it's over.
  10. I forget who/what had which torch and when, but the last 9 days here, while notably above normal, do not seem torchy. Biggest positive departures were on the mins...which have lead to a low diurnal difference most days. I think today (2/3) was the only one of the 9 with any sunshine: 1/26 41 45 1/27 39 43 1/28 35 40 1/29 34 40 1/30 33 37 1/31 31 39 2/1 30 46 2/2 36 42 2/3 31 42
  11. It was the other way around. The snow showers were with the arctic front on 2/16/73. They were more organized on LI where most spots picked up 2 or 3 inches.
  12. Woo hoo, the January thaw is over!
  13. Kocin and Ucellini are already working on the case study.
  14. As of 1/29, 6.49" precipitation here for January. Add that to the 10.23" for December and its a 2-month total of 16.72". Kinda wet!
