SnoSki14 Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 2 hours ago, weathermedic said: A little over reaction or "reaction" from last Thursday: From NYC Dept of Sanitation Twitter account: More A snow squall is in the forecast for NYC Wed. afternoon, with a coating to less than an inch of snow possible. Our salt spreaders are ready across the five boroughs, and we will pre-salt elevated areas & overpasses ahead of potential snow. Yeah shocker! They're so predictable, instead of being proactive, they're reactive, and then they overreact. It's a lot of wasted resources for nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BombsAway1288 Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 In eastern Bergen County the squall just came through and it was all snow even though RadarScope had it depicted as a mix. Anyone west of city, and the city may be included in that, will have heavy snow for 5 min if it continues to hold together edit: now radarscope has it as all snow and it’s pretty robust. I think Upton should upgrade to a Snow Squall Warning for the whole area that the squall encompasses Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If ppl blamed the city for the chaos we had then they gotta accept the salt storm for every chance of a flurry. 1-3" salt forecast overnight.

LibertyBell Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 12 hours ago, bluewave said: ISP had 65.9 inches of snow last winter following the record cold last November around the area. While the 70's and 80's were a much colder era than the present, they had much less snowfall. So when we approach cold temperature records from that era, heavier 2010's snowfall climo must be used. ISP also had record cold in November 2014 with 63.7 of snow for the season. Chris, we're getting much more precip now year round. Even 1960s analogs should be used with caution. I firmly believe we need to stick with 2000- as far as analogs are concerned. 2010-11 was the exception where we had to go to the deep past to find a moderate to strong la nina that was so blocky and snowy.

It's not even winter yet What I was trying to say was that it seems to me as though you have been on a bit of a hot streak seeing snowstorms before they materialize and when others discount the possibility---And I hope this doesn't continue this year---technically its not winter, I am aware, how about things changing back to a warm bias?
