Hailstorm Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 I am optimistic that we will see a 1/3/2014-type powdery snowstorm with frigid temps (single digits) this winter season. Those are my favorite types of storms. NYC becomes eerily quiet and very few people roam the streets. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdp146 Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 Anyone have the date of the last 90 for the region? Or last 75 or even 70 degree dew point? Wondering what the shortest number of days between those numbers and first measurable snowfall is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Summer ended late with the 80 degree temperatures on October 11th. About 5 weeks of fall before winter began early with the record snowstorm on November 15th. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Visibility was so bad I could not figure out where I was, and just followed the tail lights in front of me. People abandoned their cars on the highways to the extent the state police had them impounded. Since it came during a relatively snowless decade no one knew how to drive in the stuff anymore nor did anyone expect a near blizzard. It was a mess.

rclab Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 Happy Thanksgiving To All. May we have Happiness, Peace, Health, Wealth and Snow in that order. ( That should start a debate ) .......as always, 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CIK62 Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 No real chance for new snow on the ground in NYC till the Dec. 04-08 period. NAO and PNA are heading toward neutral or worse, and we may have to rely on a -WPO,/ -EPO regime to keep it BN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
