Models always confuse me when it comes to Long Island. I never really know if Long Island is being depicted as cooler/warmer/wetter/drier/etc. or if it just appears that way because Long Island doesn’t exist on some models. Made it up to 44 here, a full 4-5 degrees above forecast.

I’m one of the biggest warmanistas here, and even I’m confused at all the ship jumping so soon, at least wait a few more weeks lol. It’s late December, our snowiest month on average is February, anything can happen between now and then. Our winters are too erratic to ever get comfortable with any pattern. With that being said, I hope all the ship jumpers are proven right, I hope this winter will be terrible for cold/snow lovers. We’re a couple of days away from mid-winter and the dandelions are back out in full force.

59/30 here, warmest high temp of the month.

57 and sunny here, picture perfect.

Managed to reach 50 today, full sunshine made it feel even warmer, B+ rating for the first full day of winter.

Looks like another world compared to here.

Hoping for the milder outcome, as always. Cold is useless, and even the mildest winters have snow, though a snowless winter in our climate is probably a case of when and not if.

My high was 40, same low temp of 23. Currently 31. 12/16 - 31 37 12/17 - 31 35 12/18 - 22 41 12/19 - 17 27 12/20 - 20 35 12/21 - 23 40 Just a few miles south of you.

“LI is horrible” honestly would’ve sufficed.

27/17 here today....5th coldest day of the year. 1. Jan 31st ~ 10.5°F 2. Jan 21st ~ 10.8°F 3. Feb 1st ~ 16.6°F 4. Jan 22nd ~ 21.3°F 5. Dec 19th ~ 21.8°F

Pouring snow on the southern state parkway.

Nice video. And even this looks a lot better than what materialized here. Nothing has been able to match the 12/24/13 snow squall for me. Dropped roughly 5 inches in about 40 minutes on the night before Christmas. Honestly my favorite snow event.

Lasted about 10 minutes, light to moderate snow, finished with 1/32”, I’ll mark this one as a trace.

Wow, that was....underwhelming. Even by my standards.

Squall just arrived, it went from late afternoon to looking like midnight here.

Light snow in Bridgeport. The entire landscape here was covered in ice this morning, very stark difference from NYC/Long Island.

Why does it feel like the days leading up to Christmas are almost always mild lately?

7.76” here for Dec....51.97” for the year. I’m glad we’ll be drying out, we could use a break from all the heavy rains.

35 and a heavy sleet/rain mix in Islip. Ground is already somewhat slippery and precip just started.

Took the words right out of my mouth lol. I absolutely hate it here during Jan/Feb. As much as I enjoy weather, I’ve never liked cold and I never will.

2.6”, seasonal total stands at 6.1” now. Looked like a winter wonderland this morning.

Just switched from rain to heavy snow within the last 10 minutes. Temp is 34.

Just got very windy out of nowhere in Jamaica, it happened instantly, car is rocking around and street lights are flickering with strong gusts. Temp down to 45.

1.58” so far.

42 and snowing. Always feels odd when that happens, like it’s not even cold cold. Highest temp I’ve seen snow was 49-50F.
