In non weather news Bob Weir of the Grateful Dead just passed away. I was not a Deadhead but did get the chance to see them a couple of times with some friends in the early 80's. I thought they were great when I did see them and I always loved Bobs vocals. Another legend gone, I can't even keep track anymore but at least the music lives on.

Until the last five years single digit snowfall totals even in NYC were very rare. I don't have the stats in front of me but I'm pretty certain through 2018 it was less than 8 in 150 years.
-
Great data as always. I know you were just using Upton area temperatures but that was also the period Poughkeepsie recorded their all time low of -30.
-
It topped out at 40.1 today. Snow cover still intact but did take a hit. From the forecast I'd give it until Saturday and I'll probably have to call the latest streak over.
-
I remember that well and how devastating it was. What others forget however was how quickly the snowpack was rebuilt again and how the ground remained snow covered in some of the forum, I can only speak for myself and those of us in the north, through most of February and March. That was a true Thanksgiving to early April winter.
-
21.4 light snow continues, driveway covered. Today marks day 30 with snow cover this season. Surpassing last years 51 days seems like a good bet right now.
-
Some town in between Oswego and Syracuse is going to exceed six feet from the event going on there now. Winter storm warnings there tonight for 1-3 feet and snowfall rates 3-5 inches per hour. This is on top of 3-4 feet that has hit this area the last couple of days.
-
Yes Syracuse and Oswego throwing us their table scraps. Some towns in between both will end up with over 6 feet from this. Snowfalls rates there tonight are 3-5 inches per hour. One of these days I have to drive up before a big one.
-
Did any of the local airports or Central Park report any measurable snow from last night?
-
Im not sure all areas will go green during that period but I'm curious why you view that as better?
-
This is a bucket list item for me. We live 200-250 miles from the greatest lake effect area anywhere and I still haven't been up there to experience one of the classics.
-
Forecast low was 15 it's now 10. Cloud cover expected around midnight. I would expect temperatures to level off or rise after that.

Winter cancelled/uncancelled banter 25/26

Yes, in the next 14 days I have four forecast days above 40. I may fill up the pool. -
LGA is usually pretty reliable with measurements. They must not have bothered to measure. It seems unlikely they didn't get something measurable.
-
Any data for that criteria, no days 50+ in January, in Orange County airport in Montgomery NY?
-
You know what would be even better? An entire January where 50+ never happens, but to each his own.
-
The LGA number is a little suspect, especially when looking at the radar. It's nice to see the Park getting two measurements in a row correct. They have been especially bad the last 4-5 years on the under 1 inch amounts, often times ignoring them or recording a T.
-
0.6 inches here, 17.8 inches now for the season, and 27 days after today with snow cover. 20.8° and feels great.
-
The past four winters have been so bad, especially for those in the urban areas and coastal plain of this forum, people forgot what winter is supposed to to look and feel like. December was a solid A- here in Orange County. 17 inches of snow and temperatures 3 degrees below the now inflated 1991-2020 30 year average. Gangbusters is a little strong.
-
Missed it falling but 0.6 inches of new snow. I7.8 for the season with 26 days of snow cover.
-
December will come to a close today with 26 days of snow cover out of 31. Temperatures will average about 3.0° below the new high normal, and snow fall for the month will close with 17 inches. Other than Christmas being barely white the month closes as a sold A-. A white Christmas like last year, with a 4-5 inch snowpack on the ground Christmas morning, would have made it an A.
-
I don't see any days above 30 for the next week. Oddly no nights in the single digits either during that time. I suspect with the snow cover and some calm nights we have at least a couple.
-
Same here. Snowpack is 100% coverage and the 3-4 inches which covers the landscape probably contains at least an inch of absorbed rain, snow and ice from last night. The sun angle this time of year won't make a dent in this stuff below 38 degrees. I'm now at 23 days of snow cover and counting and we're not even to January. Last year with only 33 inches of snow I had 51 days. Normal to below normal winter temperatures can do wonders.
-
41 and cloudy. Precipitation done and only two hours of daylight left. Looks like this snow pack is going to be around well into the New year.
-
35 degrees light rain continues. Amazing when it's liquid how the radar keeps filling in to the west. Snow pack still pretty solid. If it can get through the rest of the day we should have a solid chuck of snow and ice that should withstand the December early January sun.
