The arborvitaes are terrible in the snow you gotta clean them off right away if not they never go back. But my pine trees, the magnolia bush even the cedars took a hit
-
I don’t know about anybody else but for this non-winter, there’s not a tree or shrub or fence on my property that has not been damaged by the heavy wet snow that froze over on several occasions. Very messy as I assess spring clean up
-
But havent days of High 80s/High Humidity increased at the expense of days in the Low 90s with lower humidity? It is very noticeable how we cant get over 95 with ease anymore. We have settled into a Florida tropical like summer climate from mid June through mid September in which high dews keep overnights real warm and temper daytime highs while feeling absolutely miserable and buggy at all times

And it’s still gonna be +10, which really says it all
-
Has to be the warmest two weeks of March on record if it holds. Solid +10 February was also supposed to open like that but muted a bit with cold shots as it actually opened
-
It is impressive how relentless this non winter has been. The fact that the first 10 days of March are going to be in the 50s and 60s after this winter warmth is simply astounding
-
It is all theory at this point. To be fleshed out over the decades ahead

The NE warming is alarming and completely off any chart or estimate possible. Unless something changes in this trend, winter as we know it in Adirondacks is changed. It will be non existent here. No climatologist had this depth of warming in any analysis. This seems to be a radical regional effect of Indian/Pacific Ocean warming. Someone could write a whole thesis on why this is happening and where it is going

18F this morning. Nice bite!
-
That’s not what I read. I don’t want to swear by it, but it seems like the castle was there without an issue. There was concern that they wouldn’t have enough ice, but they did and they finished it the day before.
-
Guess changing around that Winter Carnival was a good thing!
-
where are you in the Adirondacks? It seems like you have to be in the high peaks area now to really hold snow up there.
-
having a house in Queens and a house in wading River, you were much more likely to have a stabilized snowfall regime in Queens then in Wading River in the 1990s. That started to go crazy with super heavy snowfalls along the coast as we got into the 2000s.
-
it isn’t linear with Central Park. Jfk is very influenced by the water, and as somebody that lived in wading river for most of his life, I could tell you that it wasn’t unusual to have an all or nothing type winter. The water is always too warm for snow. what has changed since the 1990s is that the “inland” urban stations are much warmer. And the types of snowfall we get are now from the water, larger storms pulling in cold air. Less frequent and stronger. It Rearranges the deck chairs on the titanic. There’s a high possibility that if you are adjacent to the coast you could jackpot. we’ve seen this on Long Island several times over the last 15 to 20 years. It isnt a normal phenomenon in our area. 287 N and W should jackpot based on historic climatology. that’s why you’ve had all that record snow in places like Islip. over the last few years, you have seen a return to the more historical jackpot areas as it is simply too warm to snow. N and W are getting scraps in a declining snow regime and urban areas are getting shut out altogether

Could my car be that far off??
-
Was it supposed to get this warm today? I had a forecast high of 46. I’m now up to 54.
-
I noted the same thing on Sunday. There’s a hard line just north of Duchess and the snow doesn’t start again till Lake George. Crazy winter. Im glad its over. Sad state of affairs
-
Im impressed with snow cover remaining in Westchester. Granted we have hills. Enjoying last licks. 36F light rain
-
so what though? Whole winter has been running 5 above normal. Don’t you find that alarming? most of us had a snowy week in January and a snowy week in February. That’s your winter
-
I dont like the opening week. Too warm. But we shall see. Start to run out of innings
-
Yes. you can write off NYC metro, but mountains have time yet!!
-
I was convinced then, and now that that was a gift to the rescuers at the World Trade Center. They had originally planned to build a giant tent over the site so they could continue recovery. it was never needed due to the warmth
-
yeah, this hasn’t been a great year for skiers in the northeast. The Catskills have done alright. The Adirondacks have just been out of the storm track and it’s kind of sucked. The big guys that could blast snow everywhere were OK after Christmas week. If you don’t have the ability to make snow on all terrain, you are just fucked at this point in the northeast. i’m at Gore right now and they have a nice amount of snow but they have a big warm-up coming and rain this week. Down at the lower levels near Schroon Lake there’s a few inches of snow and 8 inches of lake ice. It is all a very sad state of affairs.
-
That is very warm for the season low
-
what will be our low temperature this year? It was pretty mild. Did it get down to 11 or 12 in NYC?
