EDIT - yes says the all time record was 1926. 2025 was 5th coldest all time. Many stations reported all time record lows, including LGA and Sikorsky airport in CT. JFK tied it's all time record. On 3/5/2026 at 1:09 PM, forkyfork said: central park was 9 degrees above the record Coming back to this- Winter of 2025/26 was 4.6 degrees colder than the winter of 1926/27. Greta’s grandad wasn’t even an itch in great grandaddies pants, yet there were warmer than normal winters then too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluewave Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago The obvious difference between now and and 100 years ago is that the average winter temperatures were around 5.8° colder. So this winter was closer to the norm back then. Now a winter this cold is the exception rather than the rule.

However this season ends, following storms here has been a lot of fun this winter. This is also the year I'll forever remember as the one that my wife began shouting facebook updates to me from the other room about what the GFS is saying vs the NAM vs the Euro. Surreal is the only way to describe that. I guess I have to up my game now. Enjoy all - take care. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SACRUS Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago 39 / 37 the cloud fest continues a touch warmer today near 50. Warmer but still mostly cloudy tomorrow with perhaps some breaks in the clouds and 60s (first 60s since Nov 25th) and then 70s in between mon - wed (first since Nov 5 / Oct 21). Front comes through latee Wed - cool back towards or below normal 3/13 - 3/16 then deep troug and much chillier 3/17 - 3/20 with the risk of a late winter storm. Beyond there moderation back near normal - back and forth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SACRUS Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago Records: Highs: EWR: 76 (2022) NYC: 74 (2022) LGA: 74 (2022) JFK: 70 9(1987) Lows: EWR: 11 (2015) NYC: 7 (1890) LGA: 14 (2007) JFK: 13 (2007) Historical: 1717 - The Great Snow, a composite of four winter storms to hit the eastern U.S. in nine days, finally came to an end. Snow depths averaged 60 inches following the storm. Up to four feet of snow fell around Boston MA, and snow drifts 25 feet high were reported around Dorchester MA. (David Ludlum) (The Weather Channel) 1717: Long Island, New York: On Fishers Island in Long Island Sound, 1200 sheep are discovered buried under a snow drift for four weeks. When finally uncovered, one hundred sheep are still alive. (Ref. WxDoctor) 1932 - A severe coastal storm set barometric pressure records from Virginia to New England. Block Island RI reported a barometric pressure reading of 28.20 inches. (David Ludlum) 1932: A severe coastal storm set barometric pressure records from Virginia to New England. Block Island RI reported a barometric pressure reading of 28.20 inches. (David Ludlum) Other barometric pressure records recorded at Atlantic City, NJ 28.37 inches, Norfolk, VA 28.35 inches. (Bob Ryan's 2002 Almanac) 1947: On March 7, 1947, not long after the end of World War II and years before Sputnik ushered in the space age, a group of soldiers and scientists in the New Mexico desert saw something new and wonderful in this grainy black-and-white-photos - the first pictures of Earth as seen from an altitude greater than 100 miles in space. 1970: Last near-total eclipse of the sun in Washington, DC, in this century. Sun was 95% eclipsed. A total eclipse passed over NASA's Wallops Station (now Wallops Flight Facility) on the coast of Virginia. 1987 - Forty-five cities in the north central and northeastern U.S. reported record high temperatures for the date. Huron SD hit 80 degrees, and Pickstown SD reached 81 degrees. Rochester MN and Rockford IL smashed their previous record for the date by sixteen degrees. (The National Weather Summary) 1988 - High winds along a sharp cold front ushered snow and arctic cold into the Central Rocky Mountain Region and the Northern Plains. Snowfall totals in Utah ranged up to sixteen inches at Brighton. Winds gusted to 66 mph at Rapid City SD. (The National Weather Summary) (Storm Data) 1989 - Blustery northwest winds ushered arctic cold into eastern U.S. Burlington VT reported a record low of 14 degrees below zero. Snow and ice over the Carolinas replaced the 80 degree weather of the previous day. High winds and heavy surf caused five million dollars damage along the North Carolina coast. (The National Weather Summary) (Storm Data) 1990 - A major ice storm left much of Iowa under a thick coat of ice. It was the worst ice storm in at least twenty-five years for Iowa, perhaps the worst of the century. Up to two inches of ice coated much of western and central Iowa, with three inches reported in Crawford County and Carroll County. As much as five inches of ice was reported on some electrical lines. The ice downed 78 towers in a 17-mile stretch of a high voltage feeder near Boone costing three electric utilities fifteen million dollars. Damage to trees was incredible, and clean-up costs alone ran into the millions. Total damage from the storm was more than fifty million dollars. (Storm Data) 1997: The worst was finally over for states hit hard by the flooding Ohio River. The river crested on the 6th at Louisville, Kentucky, 15 feet above flood stage, after topping out at nearly 13 feet at Cincinnati, Ohio, and more than 7 feet at Huntington, West Virginia. 2018: A teacher was struck by lightning outside an Ocean County, New Jersey middle school during a rare weather phenomenon known as thundersnow.

In many parts of the HV the January storm was more memorable than the February. I received similar amounts in both 16.3 in January storm and 15.3 in the February. The January storm had snow fall the entire time with the temperature between 6 to 9° but with bad ratios considering the temperature due to the mid level warmup. As you stated the cold afterward, and just the snow pack, which to this day remnants still stands from that storm. I have a snowblower, but the effects from cleaning up from that storm had me tired for a week. Going out two or three times in those temperatures was tough on the body. I like to think I'm still in my 30s, but but it's times like that you realize you're aging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
