CIK62 Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 Warmer than yesterday overall---especially in the Dakotas and Montana. Independently, SD has added another 10 days to winter from his Feb. 10 earlier prediction---based on some more warming to the stratosphere.

This area doesn't get many serious ice storms (>0.50 inch) and the big ones we did get didn't really affect us that much around here, they're far worse for the South as I've been repeatedly saying and Abbott's incompetence and lack of regulation of methane companies (so-called "natural" gas) hasn't helped any. It's a good thing I remember pretty much everything I've ever seen or read...it comes in handy (especially for finding hidden patterns in even seemingly random things.) I even remember stuff I memorized back in middle school, like pi to 100 digits, the presidents (first middle and last names), the chemical elements, the constellations, square root of 2 to 100 digits and the Greek alphabet. I hope I die before I ever start to lose my memory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never been to either so I'll take your word for it. I've actually never been north of Yankee Stadium or I-80/ GWB aside from my trips to Albany when I was a newspaper reporter covering the state capital. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt8204 Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 One good thing about all of this rain is that the salt will be washed away, at least temporarily. Everything has been just caked with it for the last few weeks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like we had around .5 to .75 ice build up on the trees. To get those totals we were near 20° at the start of the event. The winds were very light in that storm so there weren’t any power outages in the Long Beach area. I can’t imagine what it would be like to get 3.00 of ice like areas to our north had in January 1998. https://www.weather.gov/media/btv/events/IceStorm1998.pdf This storm had historic impacts across northern New York, northern New England and southeast Canada due to the prolonged duration of the event (both meteorological and recovery period) and the magnitude of ice accretion and precipitation amounts. The most famous meteorological aspect of this storm was the devastating and destructive ice accumulation of more than 3 inches (75mm) in portions of northern New York and southeast Canada, with heavy ice accumulation across northern New England as well. Another major aspect of this storm was the extremely heavy precipitation across the region, including over 5 inches of rain that caused major flooding in portions of western New York. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Chris is there any way to see what JFK's top ice storms were and their amounts? Curious to see how 1994 compares to 1973 which gets talked about so much. I remember JFK didn't get to freezing in that storm at all. It reminds me of how we had ice in VD2007 but that wasn't a pure ice storm, it started as snow.

There was another ice storm in January 1978 along the Long Island South Shore . It wasn’t so bad in Long Beach with the temperature around 32°. But there was about .5 to .75 of ice along Sunrise highway were it was 30°. Long Beach had smaller ice storms only around .25 on Valentines Day 2007 and 2-2-11. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I lived in Lawrence in 1994 and from what I remember it was more than an inch of ice, so I'm trying to get a JFK amount.. It was on my railings outside my side door I remember I was shocked how thick the ice was, and there was a nice layer of sleet under that. How long did that storm last? Was it a two part storm? The high temp was around 31 so just below freezing towards the end of the storm. One of my favorite memories from that winter (the other was the unique daytime thundersnow CG event in early February.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my favorite memories from that winter (the other was the unique daytime thundersnow CG event in early February.) I remember light freezing rain starting in Long Beach around 7am in January 1994. It became moderate during the afternoon. Then briefly heavy in the evening before the temperatures went above freezing around 9 pm. Probably the most challenging driving conditions that I have ever experienced. The trees were gorgeous the next day when sun came out. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kept checking the temperatures all night, at the height of it around 2-3 am we were 30-31 and JFK stayed in the upper 20s, similar to VD 2007 I remember the beautiful crystalline nature of the trees, looking like prisms in the bright sunlight under a backdrop of the clear blue skies.
