Logan11 Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 So where is the backdoor now? I see most obs from the CT river west are N an NNW, NW. All NE and ENE east of there.

Looks liek its near the CT River....the temp gradient isn't like earlier though because people west of the front have radiated with clear skies.

weatherwiz Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 What would be the best way to classify the summer of 1951? That summer followed a La Nina winter and ENSO was neutral through JJA but then by the JAS period that was the beginning of a weak EL Nino. Would classifying that summer as a neutral summer following a La Nina winter be good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ctsnowstorm628 Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 I'm not obsessed, I just want some NORMAL temps for once, 45-50 won't bother me because that is NORMAL for this time of year, not 70 like we have had in the past few days. LOL are you like LL is now through September, just in the winter?? I'm all for it, when appropriate, but its 3/14, not 1/14 bro. Spring is coming. "Oh my goodness guys, its 21F here on LI!! Beautiful day to go ice skating and skiing on non existant entities here on the west end!!" Get out and enjoy it!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back at my house (I'm in VT for school) they got 18" on the year, 5" of which came in October and 8" that came on 1/21. It was rough. But I see you're a Jets fan, so you're alright in my book!!!

ctsnowstorm628 Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Yup, I use them as my reporting station, it is in walking distance. They usually do a bit better than JFK because they are farther inland on the island, but I'm not too familiar with western LI climo. If you only saw 5.3" all year, thats gotta be close to futility.

danstorm Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 The biggest monster anomaly in our lifetime duration * intensity * area (and this biyotch roars) = shattering anything I have witnessed Someone find me some stats on SFC Tanom hrs sq miles This Morch has got to be one STD above... it's just sick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both 1945 and 1946....it will be tough to eclipse them, but it might be possible if we can hang onto decent positive departures into the final week of March.

A warm 1946 March literally planted the seed that bright me to this world round 9 months later. My father was honor oy discharged from the army after WW2 on 2/26/46. I was born 9 months.

michsnowfreak Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Some of the posts in that forum are so outrageous. Ice will melt by 2015, rivers were frozen solid every winter in Southern Ontario 50 years ago, etc. Ugh. It's gotten even worse now after this past Winter since apparently this was the first mild Winter in the last 500 years. I'm getting scared. Outrageous isnt the word lol. I love when increasing snow in the southern Great Lakes is brought up because its a lose-lose for some, if they take the "increased snowfall is a part of increasing moisture due to warming" route, it deems their childood winter memories as false, and vice versa. But I looked up warmest winters for Detroit and Chicago, which date to the early 1870s, and 75% of them for both cities are PRE-1960, most of them PRE-1932!!! I would LOVE for some insight in New Englands warmest winters (assuming Boston would be a good place, obviously you want someplace with records to at least the 1880s).
