  1. That’s the best looking wave coming off Africa at this time of year I can remember. If it were peak season I would expect a long track major. It’s just so early.
  2. Interesting, I had 6” in Wantagh. I wonder if it was your proximity to the sound.
  3. Nothing at all in wantagh, car coverer in Long Beach. Interesting snow patterns with that one. Nothing on the north shore hills near the warm sound but a strip of 2” around the LIE
  4. Gloria is my first weather memory. Watching LIPA remove the top of the big Norway maple in front of my house after it split and took down the power lines. I would have loved to have been a little older for that one. Probably the strongest winds during my life time with a brief period of 90mph gusts with what was most likely a sting jet caused be extra tropical transition.
  5. NYC bans anyone from entering the water. Including surfers. Canceling a long run body surf competition Saturday during premium conditions. Talk about over reactionary
  6. The real challenge is for cheaper and more effective solar cells. I saw something on solar cells that were super thin like film and this flexible. They could hypothetically be wrapped around pretty much any object. That’s the holy grail of solar technology.
  7. Not a great track for a high end landfall. Trajectory has too much land interaction before landfall. Good for what I assume are poor people living in substandard housing. All of the money in India is in the major city’s with the rest of the country still relatively poor.
  8. Nice to see some positivity. I agree, while it may not be a blockbuster KU I think we get at least one solid warning event sometime between 2/15-3/15
  9. At least there is some positive news on that front today. Still plenty of prime snow season left. The island especially does well late season when near shore water temps are cold. Which they will be after this next cold blast.
  10. Agreed. The big arctic events In the city that set their record lows were big CAA events so it was likely similarly cold even at west Hampton
  11. Wow, that’s more like an incredible winter. Below zero in 3 seperate months! Snow cover days must be near the top as well. The February storm was most likely a coastal hugger so I would assume inland there were probably totals over 3’.
  12. 13.5” on 2.95” liquid is insane. Must have been a ton of sleet. That would have been a nightmare to clear. Good analog, though I doubt we see anything close to that magnitude of cold.
  13. No mention of feb 5/6 2010? that was a mind boggling bad luck storm for us. Has to be the number one dissipointment of all time
  14. Absolutely epic conditions must be occurring in Saipan currently. Surprisingly the island is pretty built up. https://mobile.twitter.com/NOAASatellites/status/1055128171014709248?ref_src=twsrc^google|twcamp^serp|twgr^tweet
  15. I agree but it waxes and wanes so we win some and we loose some. As long as we do not have a repeat of 01/02 where the whole country is wall to wall warmth I’m ok with loosing a couple
  16. That’s exactly what I’m thinking. It’s going to be winter cancel and then kaaaaaaa boom
  17. My question is, why are people A. Outside B. Driving? In legit hurricane conditions?
  18. Best OHC in the world, that region creates monsters. You could fit Florence in Tips CDO
  19. She’s a bumbling moron. And I hate talking that negatively about somone. But she’s really that bad. Lee is the best in the business and Jeff smith is also top notch. Bill Evans is meh in my opinion. He’s got a good screen presence for the general public. Amy has none of the other three’s qualities which makes me really wonder how she’s lasted so long.
  20. That’s such a classic a radar loop for you guys. The northern spine is doing its thing!!!
  21. Glad you guys are getting the goods now too!!! That should help thin out the crowds this weekend. Nothing like a gondola ride up with Stowe locals who headed south last weekend. Stratton broke it’s all time financial record Saturday!!
  22. I can’t wait to get back up there tomorrow night. The amount of snow has been nothing short of epic. And that was before this event. How did you do in this one?
  23. Can someone give a rundown of local on airs for 11pm I do not have access to tv at work
