  1. Yes the hype for Gloria was intense.
  2. 1938 hurricane gave Blue Hill Observatory south of Boston a wind gust of 186mph and sustained winds of 121mph. Blue Hill is elevated at 635ft.
  3. Kennedy airport continues to be milder than surrounding areas by quite a bit. So far this month: Kennedy +5.7 Islip and Central Park +3.5 LaGuardia also +3.5 Farmingdale +2.6
  4. From 1920-1960 the average yearly precipitation at Central Park was 42 inches. From 2000 to the present it is 51 inches, quite a difference.
  5. Jfk has been milder than nearby stations. This month they are 3.7 above normal compared to Islip at 1.5 and Farmingdale at .6. Last month JFK averaged 37.2 and Islip and Farmingdale were some 3 degrees cooler.
  6. Up to 1.41 inches here and still raining
  7. 45 here and a south wind that makes it feel cold. Welcome to spring on Long Island.
  8. Hit 61 here today, first 60 since December 11th. Now down to 32.3
  9. Interesting that JFK with one day left in February is averaging 36.8. Similarly located recording stations being Islip at 34 and Farmingdale at 33.3. Quite a difference.
  10. 45 here, south wind gusting to 24mph
  11. Still flurries here. Maybe 1/2 inch, hard to tell it so light and blowing around.
  12. Ya know this winter seems more wintry to me than some of the winters we had with far more snow, when the snow came mostly in one big storm. At least we have had 3 winter months this year with cold temperatures. Personally, although I am always ready to track a good snowstorm, spring temperatures are sounding real nice.
  13. Lets not forget we were coming off probably one of the highest 10 year periods just prior to this. A 10 year average of 38.9. If we keep getting mild winters like the previous 9 to this one, than I would expect lower totals to continue and the previous 10 year period to be a thing of the past. We shall see.
  14. For what it's worth the mid Atlantic region clinging on to a little bit of hope as the nam came in further west
  15. Yes the wind has died down and the temperature has dropped to 49 from 51.4 here. Seems to have leveled off for now.
  16. Good thing your not getting what were getting, winds gusting to 37mph
  17. Temperature up 8 degrees in one hour, 49.2 and getting foggy
  18. Up to 46.7 degrees here. wind has turned more southerly
