Tis the season when it can be 50° or higher and then snowing 6 hours later. From about mid-February on its fairly typical.

Excellent choice. Sending the Triple Triple Edit: Although this Red Breast is pretty tasty

Gift cards and scotch are in the mail for the three shadow mods.

They ate my picnic table.

I didn't realize there was any place free of them on LI. Can't swing a dead cat without hitting one here. And I can confirm that they shit where they sleep.

He changed his name to PhiEaglesfan

Understatement of the year.

I had snow on the ground every day of March 2015.

light snow, 32° N Smithtown Mainly graupel. Got a dusting

The mean temperature here since December 1 (12/1 - 2/9) has been 30.4° The mean for the past 18 days has been 20.0°

Edit: somehow I forgot this one:

How is this evidence of anything? At least the colors are pretty.

Ironic. In 1934 at -20, "Much discomfort, but actual distress seems rare..." Cut to 2026, +3, little discomfort, but distress is through the roof.

There was CAA in 1934. There were reports on LI in local papers as low as -20. Strongs Neck (i.e., "Setauket") is a windy spit substantially surrounded by water.

These guys have been squatting in my yard for months. The words spreading and we have 6 of them this morning. There's 5 in this photo and the 6th out of frame to the left.

Low here was 4⁰ (3.6⁰) Yesterday's range was 26/6 (5.5). Snowfall was 0.6" (event total 0.9"). Seasonal total snowfall is 29.3" Snow depth is 8"

Block Island looks pretty cool at the moment https://nationalwebcam.com/

Was wondering if DIX being down is affecting the solutions. Sounds like it could be.

26/23 at midnight S- pcpn very light. 0.3" new snow, Snow depth 8" Question: do any of the short term models input any Nexrad data?

Thanks for sharing that memory. Do you have any photos from that? The ones I have are here: https://www.northshorewx.com/19780207.html The storm did a loop south of LI, but talk about a benchmark track:
