  1. Maybe you'll get more, by decent for those of us at the coast I mean the last one that doesn't change over to ice/rain. Looks like the next couple will change over and then it's suppression city again.
  2. Yes but it's a little sad watching white out conditions near the white house and knowing we won't get that here. Back in the day storms that hit DC hard also hit us hard lol.
  3. If it goes like last time, I think we could still see one more minor storm like we did last time, but it would be under 4 inches just like all the others.
  4. Wow, it does remind me of the January 1996 blizzard, for a few hours at least....
  5. We can even pretend we're reliving the start of the January 1996 Blizzard for a few hours lol
  6. Maybe we will get it as the block is about to break down? When is that supposed to happen?
  7. I used to listen to him a lot back then. He was also on Ch 11 WPIX sometimes. Did he have a meltdown over December 1989 too? They were still forecasting 6-8 for that one even when it quickly changed to rain and started to thunder lol.
  8. what a busted forecast that was, it would still be a bust today, as would December 1989 (in the opposite direction)
  9. I have a feeling tonight's snowfall will be our last decent snowfall for awhile.
  10. and the lowest number in the entire county, it looks so off compared to the 3.5 at Howard Beach. I wish I remembered that storm better-- was it a snow changing to rain storm? Because 0.24 liquid equivalent and 1.6 inches of snow seems like a weird 8:1 ratio otherwise.
  11. Thanks. Wow, I was suspicious about that 1.6 from Central Park too and looking at the surrounding reporting stations, it seems like 2.2 for JFK is more supported than 1.6. So now both Central Park and JFK are recorded as having 1.6 in that storm? I wonder what the reason for the change was? Note Howard Beach, which is very close to JFK, measured 3.5 in that storm. That's a huge difference.
  12. It feels like JFK is weirdly low, there have been a few events this year where JFK had more snow than NYC. I also added up your numbers for JFK and they added up to 9.7
  13. If we had this kind of blocking during last year's el nino do you think we would have had much more snowfall, Chris?
  14. Normally we have high pressure come down and push fronts to the south but this hasn't been happening this month.
  15. 3-4 inches sounds nice it could match the last storm with no taint.... an inch per hour from 11 pm to 1 am....
  16. I lived through December 1989, January 1994, January 2004, and February 2015, they were all MUCH colder.
  17. we'll be lucky to get half this amount between now and the end of February lol
  18. right our window to get to average snowfall for the season is February 17-28.
