Unfortunately if you see an oak that has turned brown it’s dead. Some other trees like red maples for example will turn yellow and gradually shed leaves. Those may survive. But overall this is extremely serious. I don’t even want to think about what another hot dry two weeks will do


.

I've always wondered why the oak trees on the south Shore are so small, thin and not too tall. I've always assumed storm damage and winds but maybe cyclical droughts cause them to die off now and then..

a CAD day today - high of only 72 -

socked in with clouds all day

 Very bad luck for you to be there on just about the coldest afternoon of the entire winter! Other than the miserable weather, how was your short visit here?

 I’ve been to your longtime home of Long Island a number of times (relatives there), but it has been over 30 years. I was in Elmont and took the LIRR from Valley Stream several times to go into “the city”. I went to the Roosevelt Field harness racing track in the 1980s. Went to Lundy’s seafood on LI.

 Today’s Masters will be much warmer and with much lighter winds vs yesterday.

We did enjoy what We saw.  Walked on the Riverwalk. Walked through some of the squares. 

Of course when we got to Orlando.  That Tuesday Feb 8th was in the low 50s and rain all day at Epcot. Wasn't prepared for that

I was on long Island 2 weeks ago.  Got to see snow showers on the 27th and experience low 30s for highs on the 28th.  Was prepared for that though!

 Yesterday’s mean at KSAV ended up at 49. There was only one day colder than that back to February 16th! The high was only 57. There was only one high colder than that back to February 9th! This morning’s low of 37 was the coldest since March 14th.

My wife and I visited Savannah for the first time on Feb 5th at night and the 6th through about 2pm on the way down to Orlando. it was miserable on the 6th - low 40s and rain - we were planning on spending until at least 5pm there but left early due to the cold. 

Looking west LIE 7th floor holiday inn Hauppauge.  Overcast with some breaks.  Hoping for a little more flakes for my visit. 

high 73 low 33 this am

currently 69/33 and sunny

Front came thru at 6am. Had t-storm at 3-4am. picked up 1.24" this morning

temps falling throughout day and dewpoints dropping

currently - sunny -  36/11 at 4:40pm

Expecting low 20s tonight

Low 45, high 50 - cloudy all day - one of the shorter diurnal ranges of the year

It's bad enough to get the government to start to take action while things are stable. Throw instability and war on the table, all of these climate change actions are thrown off the table. Choice between now or later...

1996 was outstanding with three 4"+ events in March and another one in April here.

When did it snow here in March 1999 and how much did we get?

4-6" mid march 1999

Low 29  High 60 - let the warmup commence

the boring weather continues  - 53/20 sunny after a high of 61 and low of 23

Looking forward to visiting Orlando next week. Looks coolish on the models. 

MYB STATS

Low 27 High 35 Snow 0.2"

Currently   28/-2 - clear and cold

if we had snow pack and calm wind, we'd prob go in the single digits-

Ended up with 0.2"   lame-o

With the  recent issue regarding the NYC sensor placement (going on 20 years now)  with warm season foliage, wouldn't using KLGA or KEWR be more representative of the NYC climate?

Sat and Sun had low of 14 - lowest since i moved here 

today - low 26, high 55

looking forward to more snow maybe this weekend- we'll see!

keep em coming!
