Winter cancelled/uncancelled banter 25/26
CPcantmeasuresnow replied to Rjay's topic in New York City Metro
Moving to by far the warmest part of NY state didn't help. I realize it would mean commuting but living 40 miles north of midtown makes a world of difference. -
A lifelong battle against incompetence. It shouldn't be this hard, we do it.
-
Not last year. We had a white Christmas, some of us, snow on Christmas Eve and sub zero morning two days before Christmas day. NYC was 13 degrees on the 22nd and 23rd.
-
2.2 today 2.5 for the season. More importantly, to me anyway, 1 day and counting of snow cover, 50 more days to go to match last year. This isn't going anywhere for several days. It was also nice to not have anyone mention sun angle even though this was a daytime event.
-
Made the flip to sleet and freezing rain here about 25 minutes ago. 2.2 inches before the change. 30.0 and the mix continues.
-
1.7 inches at noon. So far so good. No mix yet. 29.8 and moderate snow continues.
-
No pictures, too involved. 30.7 moderate snow continues, roads covered, lawn getting there. still waiting for that first sign of sleet.
-
30.2 with moderate snow, maybe 1/2 inch so far. Waiting to hear the dreaded ping on the windows.
-
The writing was on the wall for this one starting Sunday. A victory would be seeing the grass covered but that's highly unlikely now. An ominous beginning to the season but at least it's early in the game. Going from 5-8, which I never quite bought into, to 1-2 in a 24 hour time span is never a good thing but that's the weather game.

CPcantmeasuresnow replied to Baroclinic Zone's topic in New England
Thanks Must have missed that post. As Ricky Bobby said if you're not first your last. -

Evading the higher tax rates. -
I will respect Bronx wish for no politics and not comment on this. But if I did boy would I have a lot to say.
-
Leading up to storms like this I find myself going to the New England thread for updates. Where I live 50 miles north of the city has a lot more in common with SW interior NE weather than it does with NYC and points south and east.
-
Unless it affects NYC, LI and the coastal plain of NJ there isn't much interest on this forum. Let's face it that's where 95%of the people on this forum live. WS watch here in Orange County. If it was in Manhattan this thread would be 10 times longer.
-
It's a big climate area in this forum Walt most of us 40 miles or more north of NYC are still watching closely.
-
I've lived in the Midwest and most of my life in the Hudson Valley 50 miles NNW of New York City at 600 feet elevation. I'll take the winters where I live over Chicago 8 times out of ten. i'll take a Chicago winter over New York City winter 8 times out of 10 too.
-
Chicago only averages 7 inches more per season than New York City using the 1991 through 2020 last calculated norms. Obviously it's a lot colder than New York City in the winter. By an average of about 10° in January.
-
So much for thinking a mere 24 hours ago I was pretty safe in Orange County from any change over. The bright side I will be in Saratoga Springs on Wednesday and should at least see a nice blanket of snow on the ground there. But it's weather three days out, so who knows.
-
Hey, we got a white Christmas out of it, snow on Christmas Eve, and subzero lows two days before Christmas. If that's what it takes, encourage him to do the same this year.
-
Not in the mid to later stages of the storm but n the beginning stages when temperatures are marginal elevation wont hurt.
