Pretty common, Jan 2016/Feb 2006 melted even faster. It was upper 40’s within a day or two and 50’s/60’s with three days of both storms.

No where near as fast as Jan 2016/Feb 2006. Those two were insane melters/compactors.

Haha, did you mean to say 2000 years!? Certainly not going to be hundreds of feet of sea level rise in the next 200. Even 10-20 ft would be a huge stretch at the outer edge of possibilities.

Not melting that fast north of the city, looks pretty similar to where it was Tuesday outside the most sun exposed surfaces. Even still some ice/snow on road and drive way. Of course once temps get into the mid/upper 40’s next two days that will change. Past storms like Jan 2016/Feb 2006 melted out much faster. Biggest factor is temps not sun angle. Even for Boxing Day a pretty good chunk was taken out quickly as temps got into the upper 40’s+ a few days after the storm. Then the hammer really started dropping in the form of more storms and very cold temps in early Jan.

I agree, though will say having a 6 and 4 year old makes constant cold and deep snow a bit less enjoyable. Still worth it but more difficult/cumbersome in many ways than it was in the past.

Was crazy that we got nothing that March, month was like 6 degrees below average.

Makes sense on the track. Winds were solid but not epic. March 2017 had more consistent/ stronger winds inland despite being 10mb weaker but crossed east LI and into east SNE so low was far closer.

An amazing 5 week blitz and nothing on either side.

https://www.weather.gov/media/okx/Climate/CentralPark/monthlyseasonalsnowfall.pdf Looks like snowiest all time was 1895-96 at 30.5”. Snowiest recent was 14-15 at 18.6” Despite what people say 13/30 winters in 1990-2020 had over 5” with many more in the 3-5 range. Only around 1/3rd were less than 3”. North of the city I would rate March 2017 as a top 3 lifetime storm. Heavy winds and 20” of snow/sleet mix on 2.4” qpf with temps in the teens entire time.

Nah, this one has strong potential to be top 10 all time. Keep it going. NYC need about 11” more to make top 10. 17” to make top 5.

Assuming this includes some of todays clipper for northern areas?

72” after this one in Sherman CT. 13” to go for the biggest season since 1995-96 (117”).

Does Albany count? Not SNE but largish east coast city. Also Hartford had a ridiculous under measure in 1888. Completely surrounded by 40-50” and the measure 17”.

Does Albany count? 47” in 1888.

Probably because it’s 30+ by you? Not doing that here at 28. Didn’t totally melt off blacktop for days after the Jan storm.
