  1. It's very photogenic but looks like it's melting pretty quick, better take pics quick or it'll be gone before noon! The birds are having a field day too, I think they're playing in it and eating (drinking) it?
  2. Thanks Chris, nice back story on that link too!
  3. you dont "sound" too happy about it lol. Looks like you were the Long Island jackpot- congrats! ;-)
  4. Being a few miles east of JFK and using the radar for confirmation, I can state that it was snowing pretty steadily from 8 PM last night to around 7 AM this morning.
  5. Yes thanks thats the one! Seems like there are no photos from last night's storm from Central Park though
  6. Indeed and they match mine also! Newark also did well. Let's try to forget the other local airports lol.
  7. Yeah I'm only 3 miles or so east of JFK and I remember one time they reported a trace and the snow plows were out here. It was a 4 inch snowfall lol.
  8. Thanks! Do they have METARs for Central Park too or is that only for airports? In case it's just for airports, do you have one for Islip too? Their last measurement was also at 1 am.
  9. Thanks Chris, I wonder if there is a supercycle that influences the long term fluctuation of ENSO? Also, on a different topic, do you have any nice pictures to share of the snow from Central Park? This was a very photogenic storm and last year and the year before you posted some nice images from the Park from a twitter feed, but I dont remember the site anymore
  10. somebody wake up the people at the local airports and ask them to please measure the snow before it all melts- the last measurements were at 1 am and were under an inch lol. It should be 1.5"
  11. Merrick also got 1.5" Looks like higher totals in Suffolk with West Babylon coming in at around 2.5" and closer to 3" up around Huntington.
  12. lol if you got 1.5" by 5 PM and then an additional 1.0" that is indeed significant, because you nearly doubled your snowfall totals! what are the measuring rules, I thought you're supposed to add up the measurements if snow melted in between? it didn't stop snowing here until a bit after 7 AM
  13. I used to work there, right on Montauk Highway. There's a park near there with a lake in it and lots of bird life, nice area.
  14. even 60 would be pretty common, even in our snowier/colder winters
  15. I saw a measurement of 3.5" from Westerleigh, thought that might have been either you or Uncle W lol.
  16. JFK and LGA really? those sub 1" totals are the result of their last measurements being at 1 am. why are they too lazy to measure when the storm ends and is there a number we can call to wake them up and complain about their laziness?
  17. what about the connection between AGW and more frequent occurrences of super el nino events, Chris?
  18. cant call it a huge bust considering this is what we normally get in these scenarios. Snow is officially over now, all precip echoes seem to be offshore now!
  19. how much was your snow total and what time did you changeover yesterday?
  20. Thats right! I now remember that blizzard we got in early January that was a bonafide blizzard! Longest true blizzard conditions since January 2016! That pattern reminded me of 1995-96 for a while until it flipped but it flipped back again just like 1996 did but not as quickly as 1996 did. In 1996 it flipped back to cold at the end of January and we had a snowy February. It didn't flip back to that until March in 2018.
  21. What time did you change to snow yesterday? I think Staten Island changed over before everyone else in the city.
  22. Yeah this is just fine. If we get a couple more like these this month, I'll be happy.
  23. the sun is now poking through little holes in the clouds so this is just about over.
  24. still very light snow here, it's about 1.5" total. wish you could see how beautiful it looks!
