    https://x.com/MarioNawfal/status/1889901061499998422 JACK THE RIPPER IDENTIFIED THROUGH 100% DNA MATCH A breakthrough in forensic history—historian Russell Edwards claims Jack the Ripper has been identified as Aaron Kosminski, a Polish barber and long-time suspect, after a 100% DNA match. The match was made using a shawl found at the scene of Catherine Eddowes’ 1888 murder. Kosminski’s great-great-grandniece provided the DNA sample, confirming the link. Legal teams are now pushing for a formal inquest to name him the killer in court. A mystery that baffled experts for 136 years may finally be solved.

    Don, didn't you write something about such features not being properly ironed out until 3 days before the expected date of the storm? That means Monday of next week is when we'll have a good idea.
  3. LibertyBell
    I think it might be since 2013-14, not sure? Long time ago regardless.

    Good to be able to see it fall during the day time :-)

    Don I see the projected temperature for February keeps getting lower, what are the chances that it finishes below 32.0? When was the last time both January and February finished below 32.0 (and also with total snowfall of both months combined under 10.0 inches)?
  6. LibertyBell
    It will be gone Saturday night. The key is what falls during the day Saturday will be snow so at least we will get to see some snow falling during the day time.

    It's getting close to 50 today here, as soon as the sun popped out just before 4, the temperature has been off to the races. It really feels like a spring sun with it so bright so late in the day
  8. LibertyBell
    getting close to 50 here with the bright sun out now

    It's getting close to 50 even today here, as soon as the sun popped out just before 4, the temperature has been off to the races. It really feels like a spring sun with it so bright so late in the day

    January 1981 was just as dry as January 2025 was, there might be a connection there.

    Oh I see! There was a revision of the numbers and seeing this map made me remember a big argument on this forum back in 2016, when this storm was ranked #4 all time behind March 1960. The NESIS calculations didn't include the revised data that upped the JFK total to 30.7. Based on the new data my contention was that this storm should rank higher than March 1960 on NESIS (widespread 30+ amounts in a densely populated area from Allentown to Hicksville) and should be number 3 on the list, right behind March 1993 and January 1996.
  12. LibertyBell
    Thanks, is that 29.6 from Hicksville? Also please check the JFK amount, I think it was 30.7. There's also a 34.0 from Jackson Heights, Queens.

    the sun angle is much more of an issue for urbanized areas though-- we wouldn't have this issue if we didn't have concrete and asphalt pollution.

    Very true, and New Orleans too! They were still snowboarding down there three days after the event, Ed!

    anything Phase 8 induced has to be considered a Caboose.
  16. LibertyBell
    Yes, I'm wondering how bad it will be this weekend, as I intend to go there next week. I hope it isn't too hazardous!

    Yes, these three year la ninas interrupted by a super el nino and then more la ninas in a row is very unhealthy, particularly to the environment and ecosystem. OT but at some point we're going to have to figure out how to regulate ocean currents and the climate.
  18. LibertyBell
    I feel like it's going to be down to nowcasting where the freezing line sets up.

    The trick for us to stay all snow on HECS is for the storm to make a sharp east turn once it reaches the latitude of ACY. If it gets any farther north it usually mixes or changes over.
  20. LibertyBell
    wow and that was supposed to be one of our most extensive heavy snow events. January 2016 didn't either Don?
  21. LibertyBell
    Hi, on your site, I saw your precise map of the 2015-16 season (one spot of 50" snowfall near Hicksville, NY), do you also have a map of the historic January 2016 blizzard? I want to see how extensive the 30"+ amounts were, I know they went from Allentown to Morristown to Somerville to Jackson Heights to JFK to Oceanside to Hicksville. But I've never seen a graphical hires representation of it.
  22. LibertyBell
    24 hour duration is long enough
  23. LibertyBell
    Thanks, my thinking is along the same lines. And this is probably why la ninas after el ninos have been very snowy here. 1995-96 and 2010-11 are two other examples.
  24. LibertyBell
    ah, and 1993-94 is another example. it's probably why la ninas after el ninos are so snowy too.
  25. LibertyBell
    Yes April 2003 being a case in point about heavy rates overcoming the lateness of the season. Lesser storms would barely accumulate during the day late in the season.
