  1. Most roads covered except avenues and highways. Even those have some snow. Dumping
  2. Solid coating down Moderate snow
  3. Just drove down the Sagtikos, middle of island is mostly snow. Once I got to the south shore it was mostly sleet
  4. 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
  5. 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
  6. 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
  7. 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.

  8. 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.
  9. 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.
  10. 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.
  11. We need the 31st to stay above freezing the entire day which may be tough. Otherwise it would be a tie
  12. Pretty cool sky for a winter day. Sunshine and dark ominous clouds to the north
  13. 26 coldest temp so far this January. Absolutely unreal. Reminds me a bit of December 2015, even though that was warmer compared to normal.
  14. Finally getting some snow here
  15. Still no freezes yet in NYC this January. This could make a run for top 3. Click column heading to sort ascending, click again to sort descending.

  16. This has been trending west for some time now
  17. NYC will definitely make a run for the fewest amount of minimum temperatures below 32 in January. Might not see a freeze until the end of the month. Insane to think about, what is usually the coldest month of the year that we can't even get a single freeze
  18. NYC tied the record at 66 with the latest hourly observation. 000SXUS71 KOKX 041746RERNYCRECORD EVENT REPORTNATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW YORK, NY1246 PM EST WED JAN 4 2023...RECORD HIGH TEMPERATURE TIED AT CENTRAL PARK NY...A RECORD HIGH TEMPERATURE OF 66 WAS TIED AT CENTRAL PARK NY TODAY.
