  1. since 1990-91... ...winters with... less than 10"...4 10-19.9............7 20-29.9............5 30-39.9.............3 40-49.9.............5 50+....................6
  2. the 1980's were colder than the 2010's-20's...the Oceans were colder too...from 1970-71 to 1989-90 NYC averaged 20.6" of snow...the 1990's with the help of 1993-94 and 1995-96 averaged around 25" a season...the last twenty years are averaging 32" a season...not to mention how many 20" snowfalls we had since 1996...
  3. I forgot about the 80 in Feb when there was a foot of snow the first day of Spring...at my age I like it milder and snowier...

  5. off the top of my head there were two summers that had its hottest temprature of the summer on 9/22...1895 hit 97 and 1914 hit 95...1970 tied its hottest day on 9/22 with a 94...
  6. not tropical as far as I can see which isn't to far in my condition...that week had about 6" of rain but it does not come close to one of the wettest weeks we have seen... List of wettest weeks in NYC. 13.02" 10/08-14/2005 12.23" 09/20-26/1882 12.13" 10/07-13/1903 ..9.96" 08/05-11/1990 ..9.85" 04/12-16/2007 ..9.66" 11/04-10/1977
  7. 1963 just missed being the driest year on record in NYC...1964 broke the record and became driest year on record...1965 broke that record by a lot to become the driest year on record...1966 was following the same theme but a September deluge broke the drought...
  8. since 1971 NYC is averaging over 50" a year...before that it was 42"...1956 to 1965 was the driest 10 years on record...the drought broke in Sept> 1966...
  9. some people spit when they talk...we would say give me the news not the weather...
  10. less warmth is a good way to describe the coming cool down...gone are the days when July and August used to get heat relief with temperatures in the 50's in NYC...now its mid to low 60's...even in years when temperatures hit 100 or better there was a cool down into the 50's...
  11. it would fit in perfectly this year...
  12. where in the Poconos?...My son has a house in Wild Acres in Dingmans Ferry...I've been going there for 48 years...
  13. anything Fauci says I do the opposite...I said a long time ago a mask cant protect your eyes if someone coughs or sneezes near you...

  15. the worst part of recovery is I have to keep my head down most of the time for at least a week...I cant sleep on my back...Im lucky it was fixed just in time...I got the chinese virus test and it was negative...if it was positive i would have gone blind in that eye because they would not do the operation...
  16. I'll be on the shelf for a while...I had a detached retina operation yesterday...don't know how it happened...old age does funny things...no pain but having a patch over one eye is...
  17. just finished a summery of the winter of 1898-99... the winter of 1898-99 was one of those winters that had some historic weeks...it is known for the largest arctic outbreak to hit the country and a blizzard that gave snow from Florida to Maine...it started the last week in November 1898 with three snowstorms adding up to 19"...one famous storm called the Portland Storm named after a ship that sank off the NE coast...10" of snow and sleet fell in NYC which is still the biggest November snowfall on record...there was a month lull in the action until New years day when 4" of snow fell...between January 31st and February 13th 26.3" of snow fell including the famous blizzard that climaxed one of the coldest periods in NYC ever...a big thaw set in after that...the winter was basically over after the thaw except for a 3" snowfall on March 7th and some light falls later in the month...I believe 1898-99 was an el nino winter ... https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=blizzard+of+1899&docid=608013892811227643&mid=722B5BBF0534BB6B9316722B5BBF0534BB6B9316&view=detail&FORM=VIRE dates...……….max...min...rain.....snow... 11/24/98.....41...….32.....0.66".....3.0"....unexpected storm for Thanksgiving...rain to sleet to snow... http://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83030214/1898-11-25/ed-1/seq-1/ 11/26/98.....34...….25.....0.46".....5.0"....snow and windy... 11/27/98.....28...….26.....0.70".....5.0"....snow and sleet with winds... http://bklyn.newspapers.com/image/50341645/ http://bklyn.newspapers.com/image/50341652 http://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83030272/1898-11-27/ed-1/seq-1/ http://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83030272/1898-11-27/ed-1/seq-2/ http://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83030214/1898-11-27/ed-1/seq-1/ http://bklyn.newspapers.com/image/50341716/ http://bklyn.newspapers.com/image/50341718 http://bklyn.newspapers.com/image/50341720 11/29/98.....41......30.....0.15"........T..... 11/30/98.....39......28.....0.69".....6.0"...... http://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83030214/1898-11-30/ed-1/seq-2/ http://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83030214/1898-12-01/ed-1/seq-1/ http://bklyn.newspapers.com/image/50341838 http://bklyn.newspapers.com/image/50341844 12/12/98.....36...….31.....0.03".....0.5" 12/31/98.....53...….18.....0.36".....1.0"...rain changes to snow 01/01/99.....18...…...8.....0.18".....3.0"...white New Years day... http://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83030214/1899-01-02/ed-1/seq-4/ 01/06/99.....40.......30.....1.38".....1.0"...rain starts as snow and sleet... https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83030214/1899-01-07/ed-1/seq-3/ https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83030214/1899-01-07/ed-1/seq-7/ 01/12/99.....29.......12.....0.01".....0.3" 01/31/99.....26.......17.....0.11".....1.8"...light snow and flurries most of the day... 02/01/99.....21.......12.....0.01".....0.2"...snow ends around 2am... https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83030214/1899-02-01/ed-1/seq-7/ 02/05/99.....35.......26.....0.15".....1.0"...late morning light snow... 02/06/99.....31.......24.....0.09".....0.8"...late evening snow ends early on the 7th... 02/07/99.....28.......24.....0.20".....2.5"...snow from 4pm... 02/08/99.....31.......11.....0.30".....4.0"...snow ends 3pm...light moderate storm... http://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83030214/1899-02-09/ed-1/seq-1/ http://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83030214/1899-02-09/ed-1/seq-2/ 02/09/99.....11........-2.......0 http://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83030214/1899-02-10/ed-1/seq-1/ 02/10/99.......7........-6.......0 http://bklyn.newspap.../image/50406340 http://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83030214/1899-02-11/ed-1/seq-4/ 02/11/99.......9........-2.......0 http://fultonhistory...cale -
