You know the winter is bad when we are comparing a 1/2 inch snowfall in December to one now.
-
Looking at Columbus Circle webcam, near Central Park, looks like ground is covered, finally.
-
Cental Park reporting 35 degrees with light snow.
-
This has really been the perfect storm for breaking records in NYC. First the snow record, just about everyone got a little snow in December but not Central Park, probably because of the heat island. Then the cold, which like turning on a switch, arrives just as January ends.
-
I am currently at 40.6 for the month.
-
I was hoping that would happen in Central Park but to warm. That would have been an unexpected surprise if they got .01 of an inch.
-
Same here. Blue sky to the south and dark to the north, now moving more east.
-
Yeah that makes sense to me.
-
I agree, although it plays into it.
-
I agree the climate is getting more mild. However from 2009 -2019 NYC averaged almost 40 inches of snow per year. I think it was because of a pattern that had so many storms going near the benchmark. Now we are in a pattern that has inland cutters so it favors more toward the Great Lakes. Yes I feel like our winters are becoming more mild but it is a gradual thing not a turn off the switch for tons of snow to no snow.

OK
-
It always amazes me how people can be so certain about the future. Not saying anyone is correct or not correct but the only thing I believe about the future is that nobody knows what it brings.
-
The least snowy winter I recall in my area is 3.5 inches, I think in 2000-2001. So a winter like this is not unprecedented and we still have a ways to go to far exceed the 3.5
-
They average about 80 inches per year and as you mention the nearby mountains get way more. Yes this has been a pathetic winter in our area.
-
Winter alive and well in North Conway N.H. They have quite a bit of snow on the ground. Enlarge to full screen, it looks nice. https://whitemountains.tv/live-cam-north-conway-village-nh/

Meanwhile 20 to 30 below zero in northern Minnesota this weekend.
-
Getting quite windy here out of the ESE, gusting to 30mph. Temperature on the rise, 42.5.
-
It was one of those white rain hitting the windshield. The harder it came down the more it mixed.
-
38 degrees with rain. It will now be about the wind, here. Had my 3rd biggest snow event of the season today, a rain/snow mix.
-
Looks like it.
-
Latest first snow for NYC is January 29th.
-
Just drove from Staten Island to Nassau county and it was rain snow mixed the whole way
-
Westchester and Rockland now added to the WWA. Leaving only the immediate coast out.
