  1. interesting we had a strong el nino the following winter....
  2. wow it happened twice in 1972.....
  3. Looks like after this 2 day cold wave, we'll have highs in the 40s and 50s for the next 10 days plus. This might be it for high temps in the 30s.
  4. I'm a little shocked that the percentage of EPS members that have 1 and 2 inches of snow for NYC is that high. Figured both would be under 10 percent.
  5. How many times has Central Park gone from the 60s to the teens or lower within 24 hours, Don? Also, what was the low at JFK? Thanks!
  6. 70 degrees in the Poconos too- NICE!! 61-63 here which is pretty good too.
  7. so we're talking about another westerly wind heat burst instead of the southerly wind which makes it chilly here?
  8. I never liked the way they showed fronts on weather maps. The lines are way too thick and I'd much rather they show a very thin line that updates every 30 minutes to show the precise location of the front (as in which town it's currently in.)
  9. I think you're in the extreme minority
  10. The 80s heat streak in March 1990 was more extreme than the one in March 1998 which occurred at the tail end of the month.
  11. Did JFK see a similar drop, Chris??
  12. and our high of 67 on the 1st almost certainly won't be the warmest temperature we see this month!
  13. Yes, we cleared the old record of 61 from 2017 by 6 full degrees, Don! Now that it's hit 67 on March 1st here, I don't think we should have any problem reaching the 70s in the second half of March, rarely if ever do you see the warmest day of March on the 1st! I like the idea of westerly winds for a larger than normal part of the spring and summer so JFK should have plenty of 90 degree days this summer and perhaps even hit 100+ a time or two or three......
  14. I mean, it won't exactly be cold here. Except for the next 2 days that is.
  15. There's a scientific reason for this, positive nao is more likely in winter and negative nao is more likely in spring. There's a particularly strong connection to it in May. It doesn't mean that it'll snow or even that it will be really cold. Just not extremely warm.
  16. it'll be interesting to see what the official high temperatures were around the area today and if JFK had the highest temp at 67.
  17. where's that strong southeast ridge when we need it.
  18. an apparent heat burst, JFK hit 67. If this happens in July, JFK will be hitting 105 lol.
  19. Is this right, the temperature got to 67 at JFK at 2:09 ? Was this an early season heat burst? https://www.wunderground.com/history/daily/us/ny/new-york-city/KJFK 12:51PM 61 °F36 °F39 %S13 mph0 mph29.41 in0.0 inFair 1:51PM 62 °F36 °F38 %WSW17 mph24 mph29.39 in0.0 inMostly Cloudy 2:09PM 67 °F32 °F27 %W24 mph36 mph29.39 in0.0 inMostly Cloudy / Windy 2:51PM 62 °F31 °F31 %WNW30 mph40 mph29.43 in0.0 inMostly Cloudy / Windy
  20. wow this difference from previous decades is really shocking-- this alone speaks more to what should concern us than any snowfall totals.
  21. and windy (which I hate) and wind chill near 0. luckily only a two day cold shot.
  22. weird storm, I think its quick movement was a factor. I know the totals say around 6 inches fell at JFK, but it was more like 10 inches here just 5 miles to the east of there.
  23. we have a total lunar eclipse coming up on 3/14 (2:30 am to 3:30 am so the eclipse will be total at 3:14 am on 3/14 lol.) on 3/14 it will be a pizza pi.
  24. 2002-03 wasn't strong? it was borderline strong I think? same strength as 2009-10 but colder?
  25. 1993 was my favorite summer of all time before 2010 too look at the number of 90 degree days and consecutive 100 degree days in July. So memorable and then to have a historic winter after that too.... 1983 had a historic summer too look at the JJAS average temperatures and number of 90 degree days..... I think there were 6 or 7 90 degree days in September 1983 including a 95 or 96 on 9/11. I know JFK hit 100 in August 1983.
