too many opinions here. the pros say something might happen, probably won't. go through this all season in boating/fishing season....will we get seasick or rocked at sea or not? if we stay home, the weather will be better than forecast, if we go out, it will be worse.....can't win.
-
no, but climate suggests its really unlikely. it would be rare, heck that much snow is rare any time.
-
never give up? dude, the weather is an uncontrollable variable. it's gonna do what its gonna do. if you ever were at sea, you'd find that out in a hurry....but i don't mind your posts. they are kind of funny imo.
-
oh way less maybe a foot or so. long island did better. but not that much.
-
they made out in march 2018 iirc.....that's about the only one i can think of.
-
its not the mainstream that is hyping this online, it's the fringe sites, unless you count the ny post.....
-
and then we get into what is cnj....ocean county technically is, but storms that dump there often stop at mid monmouth and then skirt east to long island, skipping most of north jersey and even middlesex and somerset counties.
-
a little late in the year for them to get a huge snow; we all analyzed this idea back in 2010, when they got all the snow; except for the last one in feb.....that hit north....the infamous snowicaine.
-
it's tough to get heavy precip these days. look at today; not enough precip to do much of anything.
-
yes.
-
norway; it's gonna snow. safe forecast until may.....
-
americans have never dominated winter olympics.

a man's got to know his limitations....
-
an unsung classic. great from start to finish.
-
well, i am 63 and can count on one hand the number of big snows after mid feb in cnj.
-
i'm with him; he's one of the more reliable mets out there. then again, when has the overall pattern really delivered for us in recent years? all i ever hear about is wasted cold.....
-
i'm seeing warm temps in my forecasts.....but i've seen that change on a dime too over the years....
-
i think we had our big storm this year; and it was a doozy. as for being due.....where you around from 1984-93? ok, jan 87 featured a good one in north jersey and one in south jersey. and that was it. we can go a long time between big snows. we just went 5 years, though 2024 had a big one locally here in nj, i believe it was an inverted trough, help me out here folks.....
-
now i don't claim to have a great handle on this stuff, but i saw people here saying the recent big snow to sleet storm was a benchmark storm...so what defines a benchmark storm? because i have seen big ones that were not exactly miller a bowling balls.....this last big one and jan 2005 come to mind.
-
the pieces are in place, now they need to come together. and therein lies the rub.....if you ever get kocin's book, the best chapter is on near misses, imo....
-
it also came on the heels of 94; people had gotten used to big snows the year before, and many were talking about the storm coming and were ready for it. and that was basically it for the whole winter.
-
the effects are noticeable in all agencies and have been written about extensively in respected publications, at least the ones not owned by murdoch or bezos.....a professional has listed his reasons and you have answered with an anecdote from a poster here.
-
its tragic

tomer?

the whole winter was mild especially compared to the year before which was epic; this was the only major storm in 95, included in kocin's book; i remember it was a saturday so impacts were less; it would be the last storm i would use a shovel on; december 95 i bought a snow blower and guess what, we had a major snow two days later....ya'll know what the rest of that winter was like; the blower was good for up to 12 inches......i thought that would be plenty.....wrong...
