    Yes and the Polar Vortex has been giving extreme cold where they are suppose to get it, the far north. The Bering Sea ice extent has actually reached the 1981-2010 norm. The ice extent in the Arctic is more than it has been in years. Don't know how long it will last but at least it has put a little dent in the ice melting.

    24 at my house this morning. Meanwhile Manhattan only dropped to 39.

    It has been so cold up north this winter, the Bering Sea ice extent is actually within the normal range of the 1981-2010 median.

    39.9 degrees here. I think I heard a sleet pellet hit my skylight. That would make this my 5th biggest storm of the season.

    Current temperatures in upstate NY, around the Adirondack area, are near 15 below zero.

    I had a peak gust of 48mph. at my house. My nearby airport, Farmingdale, had 56mph. Airports usually report high readings as they are in open spaces. Sometimes folks post that the wind is this or that where they are but they really don't know unless they have their own weather station. I am listening to the wind outside my house right now and at times it sounds real strong but it is only gusting now to about 30mph as being recorded by the anemometer above my roof.

    Wind really picking up here, just gusted to 44mph out of the west. Barometer on the rise.

    sunshine here

    That's what I expect here. I am in that brief lull but not for long.

    Sky brightening here, some blue sky to my southwest. Barometer down to 28.81.
  12. lee59
    Same happened here about 15 minutes ago, now a brief lull in the wind. Still some wind but not as strong.
  13. lee59
    Wind has slackened here. I believe the low is very close, barometric pressure 28.83. Wind should pick up as the low pulls away.

    Trenton just reported wind gust to 64mph as storms move thru. Now gusting to 32mph here out of the south. Temperature up to 53 degrees and barometric pressure down to 28.88

    I think the warm front has just moved thru my area. Temperature has spiked to 50 degrees and wind has suddenly picked up out of the south gusting to 21.
  16. lee59
    Barometer already down to 28.95 here.

    Just about all the models have an approximately 970 low over the Hudson Valley tomorrow afternoon. That much consistency is unusual.

    Also the models have been pretty consistent with this for a few runs now. The NWS seems to be hesitant to ramp up the winds on Friday, although I noticed they are finally calling for some gusts in the 30s and 40s.

    If you want to know where the cold air is try Alaska. Fairbanks in January averaged -21 degrees some 13 degrees below normal. McGrath Alaska averaged -24 degrees, about 18 degrees below normal.

    Actually there is some evidence that the Miami sea level rise is not the sea rising but the ground sinking. I am not saying the ocean is or isn't rising, just referring to certain parts of the Miami area that have some flooding issues.

    Lack of snowfall last winter and this winter so far, is simply over due for our area, especially the coast. We had some string of above average snow seasons, now we are paying the price. That is how we get averages.
  22. lee59
    Currently heavy rain, 50 degrees and winds gusting to 36mph.
  23. lee59
    Looks like some snow in parts of Northeast Pa.
  24. lee59
    Wow, I guess you hit the jackpot. About a 1/4 inch here with two squalls passing thru.
  25. lee59
    Closing in on 4 inches of rain here in the past 5 days.
