I just have a good feeling this time for the rest of the winter.
I know we will turn the corner this week into winter well into March. Just that you are running with clown maps days in advance since November when NYC Ave high was 50 throwing out accumulations and arguing why with nothing but a way off clown map to back you. You become chicken little after awhile. I know you love snow but the board has to be somewhat fact grounded to prevent it from becoming unreadable.

Agreed, but hey I’m a cold weenie and I’m taking that run and running with it. Although GFS is going to shut me down now I’m sure let’s see!
Which means like every other storm that you insist will lead to accumulations in NYC, there will be almost none.

We’re halfway through Met winter and NYC has under 3”. That’s well below average at this point-about one third of average in fact. By now Central Park should be at 8”. Islip is at 4.7” and should be at 8.8”. Bridgeport’s at 5.7” and should be at 9.2”. We still have a long way to go but it’s not whining to say it’s been a very lousy season so far.
Yes but in statistical reality to balance out the well above decade of snowfall eventually you have to have below normal winters. It is normal

It depends on location, elevation and exposure. Most of the glacier's are retreating. Grinnell is melting fast. Salamander and Gem glacier are stable.
Jackson increased 25% over the last decade. Point is predictions of the glaciers demise have been wrong for around 90 years. When do these people get taken to task?

They say our climate is heading towards what DC is now
They have been predicting that Glacier National Park would be melted down since the 1930s. The National Park Service had to change their last official sign recently which had projected 2020 to now 2040. I'll be taking my first trip to see the glaciers in 2040.

Ha ha - I hope not. But hey, folks that are thinking about moving to Florida when they retire may be able to just stay put, up here. Arctic Circle the new New England...?
They leave more to get away from high blue State taxes. The weather is an added bonus

This is a wicked warm layer. Mesos seem to be trending back toward a sloppier solution this evening after it looked like a mostly-snow event was possible.
Whenever these come in later than expected it always is at the expense of snow.

Just so we’re all clear, you said nyc is an all rain event right?
Please be careful shoveling your Euro snow. If it's off by a tenth, you may be dealing with a full inch to remove in the city

When you get a chance, take pics of the panicking public caught off guard with the thunder snow and traffic stopping rates of accumulation.

I'm surprised that watches are still up, now inside of 12 hours. I'll grant that the main event isn't until Monday, but tomorrow will still be plenty messy for an advisory.
They didn't have to pull the trigger because of the long duration. They gave themselves a window to back down without going from a warning to an advisory

This is an open forum so I sort of expect it and just don't get bothered by it too much, but to each his own I guess.
It's an open forum in NE also and somehow its not a bunch of teenagers bantering absurdity for half the posts.

I think 1-3” is a great call for the city with 2-4” for the immediate NW suburbs and parts of LI. 3-6” once you get near 287 in NJ and North of the Thruway in Rockland. 4-8” for Northern Westchester, 3-6” near the Tappan Zee bridge and 1-3” for Southern Westchester and the Northern Bronx. Once North of 84 in NY I like 6-10”, same for the Pocoos and extreme NW NJ. NW of Newburg I see the greatest potential for >12”.
Well played...

Eh, relax. I agree that there are some "interesting" posters who occasionally deserve a time out, but there are plenty of knowledgeable ones. Pretty easy to just filter out some of the nonsense if you ask me.
None of that nonsense is interesting. If it's said in a post.. fine. When it's spread out in dozens of posts during the day along with questioning people who actually have a clue about the weather, then it's not. It's akin to a petulant child on Christmas morning who opens up his NAM and thinks Santa came

The problem with this forum is you have people posting out of mommy's basement that NYC with water temps in the 50s and against climo is "gonna get crushed" and "the NAM is a top three American model" along with the Euro and UKMET. These posts (a ton of them) make this forum unreadable. Then one goes to the NE forum where for the vast majority of posts there's actually thoughtful insights being discussed until NYC crazy town postings start showing up in their sub forum. Once it became obvious NYC was not a jackpot zone this morning, mommy's basement weather warrior slinks away in silence. Sad..

It's evolving into a longitudinal situation as far as Sunday night goes. The further West you go the less impact the warm nose will have. Hopefully the low itself doesn't tuck any closer or we will suddenly become an ice storm here with several inches of snow as it pulls out

Valid 18z Monday. Hell of a ways to go from there

May Storm King Mtn protect me from all warm intrusions to my South. The consistency of the Euro here has been remarkable and the NAM has joined the party. Steep drop off not far South though still sets me up for disappointment here in Cornwall on Hudson. Hoping the North trend is done.

Refreshing gfs runs while chasing jay walkers on his bicycle.
Hey I resemble that remark. I was the first bicycle cop in Manhattan. I had the Brooklyn Bridge as my beat. It didn't suck in the summer time in shorts and a t-shirt sitting over the middle of the East River making sure nobody stole the Statue of Liberty while watching good looking women jog by 6 months a year. Beats working for a living

Looks like 1.25" here for yesterday and early this morning. Boy that was a fun drive home from the Capitol District last night. I had to go to Williamstown MA after Cohoes so came down Rt 22 and it was challenging to say the least. Branches and stuff flying everywhere combined with wet leaves and crap visibility made it easy to stay awake.
And no cell service for a good chunk on 22.

A 66/64 at 1am in November is not a torch? Lol
We get that in January when we get a strong inland runner. Have seen it over 60 overnight ahead of the cold front with a strong SSW wind even in dead of winter

Not seeing any 'below' average within 2 hours of the city. Data are data...
I was referring to October. Not since Labor Day. Any above normal in this pattern is solely because of skewed overnight lows in and around the city especially on cloudy nights Big difference in averages when you start pulling 68/60 rather than 68/48 just outside the city. You can throw whatever numbers you want out there but since the latter part of September, this has not been an above normal pattern outside the 11 million crammed heat island.

They keep doing the smiley emoji at you...
But so far you have been spot on.
A few cool days. This week is masked by this storm...but it is 60 at 7am. Sat thru Wed all look AN.
Long story short, this cool stretch isnt that cool
You look at the small picture. Despite having the most population, the city is a small area with its own climate, especially at night. You go an hour outside the city (especially North and West) where it starts off in the 30s and 40s in most mornings now, the AN is bullshit.

I actually am not happy about this possibilty of it getting active again. I'm a fan of prolonged dry tranquil strecthes with nothing but blue sunny skies and love droughts.
Seriously, are you 12 yrs old? If not, you have issues. You sign up for a weather board and complain about the use and discussion of weather models and while living in a city that is cold and gloomy 5 months a year, you bitch that all YOU wants is Arizona weather as far as the eye can see. You are lucky you don't post in the NE forum. They would've mocked you and sent your ass back to the Rock that you crawled out from under a few days ago. Advice.. If you don't like to hear about storms, don't go on a weather forum.

Highland Falls is in huge trouble. Radar estimate of over 4” on top of the 10” from the other day and still coming down. This is surreal up here.
