    Can you match up the monthly temperature averages, for the 1970's and 1980's against the 2000's and 2010's? I'm curious how much colder the 1970-1989 period was compared to the much snowier period of 2000-2019 period.

    Well the 1970's and the 1980's were the lowest decades in NYC recorded history. They were anomalous for their low totals. 1970's 21.3 and the 1980's 20.2. Although especially the 1970's were much colder than our new climate.

    I'm splitting hairs here but actually the correct figure for 1951-2020 is 26.3 inches. By adding 30 year averages in ten year increments you're including several decades three times in the average while only using others once or twice. I get your original point though and as always it's a good one.

    Curious why you use 25 inches as the average for NYC? The 30 year average 1991-2020 is 29.8 inches. Even if you use the historical average (1870-2024) which includes two of the least snowiest winters in recorded history, 22/23 & 23/24, the average is 28.5 inches. Are you using an average outside those date ranges?

    1.0 inches, surprised it was even that much, final measurement probably at 8:30 from the looks of the radar. 13.2 now for the season.
  6. CPcantmeasuresnow
    1.0 inch even here at 7:30, 25° light snow still falling. 13.2 now for the season.

    It doesn't matter, I was just mocking it anyway. Sarcasm doesn't come through in texts.
  8. CPcantmeasuresnow
    Well that's the 10:1. Show me the Kuchera and I'll bet some area in our forum is pushing an inch and a half.

    33.0 average for the first 7 days of January would have been above average a couple of decades ago. My how things have changed and how we've forgotten.

    MJO812 refusing to change his name. It's that simple.

    Not sure but, we really need to build a huge manmade lake in northeast Pennsylvania. Maybe from Scranton to the NYS border, the bigger the better. I know you and several others have a house there but, to hell with the Poconos.
  12. CPcantmeasuresnow
    I agree totally. Since he changed his name to MJO five of the last six winters have been bad, three of the six all time top ten bad. I can't stand the Mutts, but I want that name back. It may be the only thing that can save us. He also used snow88 way back in the day. I think that name brought us our best winters. There's an obvious correlation and powers at work that he may not even be aware of.

    Shocking.

    0.5 here and 12.2 for the season. Saturday should bring another 2-30 inches according to the last three runs of the goofus.
  15. CPcantmeasuresnow
    Ended up with 0.5 when nothing was expected. 12.2 now for the season.

    In Orange County we went from 30 inches on the 12z to 20 inches on the 18z to 2 inches on the 0z. At least the 6 z can't give us negative amounts, or can it?

    Look at the pictures from 1888 and the measurements surrounding Manhattan. Remember there was no snow on the ground when the storm started. Brooklyn was 36 inches, New Haven 45 inches and the entire HV of SE NY 40-60 inches. That somehow Manhattan measured 21 inches from that storm is a total joke. It's a shame they haven't had that corrected over the years.

    1/2 inch here 50 miles north of NYC. Nothing to get excited about but totally unexpected.
  19. CPcantmeasuresnow
    Philly is not in the NYC subforum, although from the constant references over the years from posters you might assume they are.

    Always thankful for this thread. Weather wise I have always found very few similarities between this area, interior SE NY, NW NJ, NE PA, SW CT, and Rich's postage stamp, than 95% of the population of the NYC forum. We're a much better match for the SWNE area but try to get a word in edgewise on the New England forum. Tough to do when some individuals have 50k to 100k individual posts. Many good posters there and knowledgeable, insightful information, but a tad snobby at times to anyone whose state begins with New and doesn't end in Hampshire. Enjoy the dry week ahead with near normal temperatures = boring.

    Define way?
  22. CPcantmeasuresnow
    Bitter cold lows, a couple of degrees above average. Sounds about right.
  23. CPcantmeasuresnow
    Sometimes you just have to let it go, for your sanity and ours.
  24. CPcantmeasuresnow
    Is the dark red area 3 feet plus? I want to make sure I don't give out bad information when I warn people.
  25. CPcantmeasuresnow
    Low of 8 this morning, 8 yesterday morning and -3 on the 23rd. Let tomorrow and the couple of days after wreak their havoc on the snow cover. It was white several days before through and after Christmas. December is already a success.
