    Yeah, we’ll see if this is one of the few years that NYC can avoid a first freeze until December.

    With the UHI so strong in NYC, it seems they sometimes get their first snow before or around the same time as the first freeze.

    Hurrican season ending soon.  NOAA increased their original forecast for the number of storms based on the water temperature.  I wonder what the latest tally is vs. the number of storms predicted?

    Water temps has something to do with the number of storms and so does the fact they are much more liberal in what they name as storms.

    Surprised about Westhampton, they usually drop huge with radiational cooling. Maybe there were lots of clouds. A little surprised about Teterboro also.

    February 2015 was our biggest outlier month since 2010.

     

    Interesting how the average annual snowfall is higher now than around 1900 (like here) do to the higher amount of yearly precipitation. Of course if the temps keep rising that will eventually bring snow fall rates down.
