  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. It's early but starting to like the looks of this for those of us 35 miles or more north of the city, especially with some elevation 500 feet and up.
  6. Recorded 0.3 inches in early afternoon squall. How did the rest of the HV do?
  7. Many parts of the lower Hudson Valley specifically Orange County had 40-50 inches of snow in March 2018. Add the 5-6 in early April and that was a very memorable period.
  8. 29 degrees for a morning low at 8:00 am. Didn't quite top the 28 from October 10th.
  9. Damn, now I have to adjust my travel plans for the next 46 days. Does this account for mixing?
  10. 1.57 inches. Looking 25 miles west to Port Jervis. Looks like about a half an inch. This would've been a very tough cut off line between eastern and Western Orange County had this been a winter event. I guess since the whole county needed rain, it's a tough cut off period.
  11. 1.14 inches total here. 25 miles to my west (port jervis, high point NJ area) I'm guessing they are hard pressed for half an inch. If this were a snow event there would be a huge cutoff and lots of snow deprived.
  12. Looks like the wind, the rain made it up here overnight. Almost an inch so far .90. Hopefully can match that today it's needed.
  13. I personally don't have data to go far enough back for that. I was going by the averages for the first freeze at Montgomery and Poughkeepsie which average out to October 12.
  14. Same here bottomed down at 28° this morning. First frost, freeze and hard freeze all on the same day pretty much in line date wise with the average for the first freeze of the season.
  15. Cloudy most of today but 90% of the snow cover was gone by mid afternoon. I'm at 600 feet but the hills around me are at 900 feet, when I drove through there just an hour ago, they still had a solid 2 to 3 inch snow cover everywhere.
  16. Do you keep track of the number of days with snow cover?
