I like our chances for hail today.

Got some good, beneficial rains off and on today. We could use a nice, stalled tropical storm to help us break the drought, though. The lack of moisture is odd in 2020. Lack of rain or snow during the winter months, lack of rain during spring.. definitely thought we were getting close to putting some red flag warnings up. Hopefully the rains we're getting bust the drought and don't let our temps get too high next week.

A tropical storm that stalls over Long Island would be ideal.

A little too windy for my taste, but what a gorgeous day.

We did. It was there until July, I think.

Was pouring here in Jersey City a bit ago.

Any chance of snow?

I thought you said summers where April and May are both cooler than normal usually feature a cooler than normal summer?

Analog for upcoming summers when it snows in Central Park in May?

So it snows in November and May, but not December, January, and February?

Could NYC see a flurry or two?

If this verifies, I will never complain about this winter again.

Uh... what?

Is this going to be like last year where we have a -NAO through the Spring and Summer which gives us a warm, hot summer again? I can't even begin to imagine how bad this summer is going to get.

This is going to be such a fun summer.

Wow

Any 8-ball ideas on how March could look for us snow-wise? Any chance of a 12"+ incher?

Can mother nature please give us something to track? I'm getting tired of tracking coronavirus updates on Twitter.

It sounds like a hurricane out there.

A record positive AO, with a positive NAO in February. This is not even close to being our winter.

Maybe this could spin up a few water spouts!

2006 was NYC's second largest snowfall. Didn't that happen in Feb and not March?

I think we had one of those in January 2006 right before our major Feb 2006 snowstorm. I would be alright with one 60-70 day if it meant that's what follows, but so far, it doesn't look good.

You're right. 2010-2011 was an AMAZING year for snowstorms. We had two KU events that winter which followed a KU event in February 2010. We haven't had one since January 2016.
