  1. But it didnt hit 70. And it wont this week. And that is a big differentiator in March.
  2. Man you have been talking about that magic 70 for 3 weeks already! woo hoo
  3. Have kids and it becomes abundantly clear why we do it. Frankly, im tired of hearing the complaints from the masses about the twice a year you are horrified to by the one hour time change haha
  4. Looks like the winds picked up earlier than expected by about 3 hours. LGA on single runway ops at the moment
  5. LGA will probably stay on land 22 depart 31 for today. If the winds get stronger earlier than forecast single runway ops on 31 are possible. But that is not forecast til overnight hours
  6. It throws LGA onto ILS 13 which crosses the final for the 22s at EWR atop TEB which effectively stops TEB traffic That is why they almost never use it!
  7. JFK just switched to the dreaded ILS 13L due to winds. that happens less than five times a year. Always a nice brutal day for delays
  8. Man did that temperature change quick! Went from a real warm day to a real chilly one real quick!
  9. I was in bozeman with at least 4 feet of snow on ground and temps within a few degrees of 10. The day i left it was 40. Been in the 40s and 50s since
  10. not much of a call man by the second week of March it’s all over anyway. haha
  11. Yeh, but not every conversation on monthly temperatures has to delve into AGW with guys like you choosing different historical averages to make a point. We are on 91 averages for comparison, but that didnt suit you this morning when people were discussing a cold winter. You even brought age into it. Ive been here for 40 years…this was a cold winter. That fact doesnt have to be debated in the historical context of the 1970s or 1950s or 1980s every time it is brought up. This would have been even colder in the 1980s, but this would still be a cold winter in 80s/90s/2000s etc. It is especially noticeable since the last several winters we so warm For reference, today it was 50 and it felt like summer. my kids and I were in the street with no jacket on…because 50 is so warm compared to the last 60 days. People dont want to be told they are wrong or constantly be given context when they state something that is factually correct on a daily weather forum. That belongs in a climate thread with deeper discussion in my humble opinion
  12. Can we start warming up the fat lady? Aside from the first week of March, I think we are pulling out of this one…
  13. Ill call bullshit on the JFK number. Their numbers have been off all winter. And we havent been landing on the 22s and 13s a lot…so the wind off the water argument doesnt hold.
  14. You are right! There has been nothing warm about the last 3 months. Why anyone would predict or expect an early spring is beyond me.
  15. you’ll probably get another one or two 2-3 inchsnowstorms before it’s all set and done. That’s your winter this year. No big one coming to save annual total meanwhile, out in Bozeman, I’ve never seen so much snow. at least 4 feet of snow on the ground and while I’ve seen that in the mountains, I’ve never really seen that in a town before. We had another 6 inches last night and the sky finally cleared.
  16. What are you talking about? Adirondacks having a spectacular season. Im at Belleayre every week with 100 percent terrain open the entire winter Been the best season in the NE in several years…todays ice and wind aside
  17. im surprised more people arent talking about the flood potential with the snowpack and this heavy rain moving in. saw it a little this morning…this will be worse
  18. No! We dont! Enough with this strong El Nino savior garbage already. Just gives us a plus 5 winter with one big storm.
  19. Conditions are very bad out. Had an inch of snow before we went to freezing rain. Now absolutely pouring and 33F Most of us still have full snow cover, which is really ice from last week Flooding is a concern Real mess out
  20. oh, stop it. He was calling+4 through the winter. Even I told him he was being ridiculous. There’s warm winters and then that’s ridiculous
  21. Long Island isn’t winning anything. This is a north west storm. Youve been around a while to read the tea leaves…dont follow model dingleberries
  22. So NY of my childhood! Always jealous of the friends in Yorktown living in Queens
