82 and sunny 67 degrees just a couple miles to my SE. Happy to not be in the sea breeze today!

Down to 32. Moderate snow, coating on most surfaces, streets wet

Need your snow fix? Here's a live feed from Maine with lots of deer. If only it was here!
-
Pretty sure it's ice pellets. Under decent radar returns right now but my visibility is pretty high. I was under heavy snow before
-
1.5" OTG Snow/sleet mix

Most roads covered except avenues and highways. Even those have some snow. Dumping

Heavy snow and breezy
-
Solid coating down Moderate snow

Mostly snow now!
-
Just drove down the Sagtikos, middle of island is mostly snow. Once I got to the south shore it was mostly sleet

No leafout but silver maples are budding and daffodils are sprouting

The difference is probably resulting from using different climate averages. Tropical tidbits looks to be using CFSR 1981-2010, Weatherbell is using ECMWF ERA-5 1991-2020. Weathermodels.com appears to be using some 20-year average. The differences could also be resulting from whether it's a instantaneous snapshot of temperature anomalies, or the average of the anomalies over the past 6 to 12 hours

High of 69 and dropping now with increasing clouds and a sea breeze, so I've never got into the 70's but glad to see ISP's record fall. HRRR, RGEM, HRDPS did great with temps today
-
ISP at 69 Officially breaks the all-time warmest February temp on record. Original record was 68 set last year
-
Most sites on Long Island are 60+ already except Montauk. Already exceeding the lower-end model forecasts for today. RGEM, HRDPS, HRRR had the right idea. HRRR has 71 later for ISP. Would be the all-time record. We'll see, we have clouds and the sea breeze which could easily prevent that
-
HRRR has 70's tomorrow before some late afternoon rain moves in

If NYC doesn't get 8 more freezes by the end of the month, this winter (Dec-Feb) will have the fewest number of minimum temperatures below 32 degrees on record.

60 and sunny Awesome day
-
It wasn't the radiational cooling this time, it was cold air advection. The core of the cold was to our north & east, so places north & east saw colder temps than those further west.
-
3.6 for the low here The maps from the Euro a few days ago showing well below 0 here didn't verify, but we ended up colder than models like the GFS/CMC. A blend of these models had the best forecast. I recently pointed out how the Euro was too cold, particularly over the ocean. Case in point, this morning 6z Euro initialized with -15 for Provincetown on Cape Cod. However, the coldest it got there was around -4. It's interesting that this model has some sort issue when extremely cold air masses move over water. It doesn't make sense for it to be -15 in Provincetown, but only -10 in Boston.
-
Euro is still way too cold. Pretty amazing that 24 hours out it'll have a forecast for -17 in Provincetown, on Cape Cod, surrounded by water. In fact, the Euro has the entire Gulf of Maine below 0 all the way to the 40/70. It's not going to get that cold over 40+ degree ocean.

We need the 31st to stay above freezing the entire day which may be tough. Otherwise it would be a tie
