I wonder if you did that same exercise for other stations what it would show

65 here today. Felt really nice to get a little yard work done.

37. Night started off windy then turned more calm

https://www.jdjweatherconsulting.com/storm-archive. https://www.raymondcmartinjr.com/weather/ Look over all the storm tracks from these amazing archives. Plenty examples of where NY got more than here and the reason why, storm tracks. The ave temp difference is mainly from NY not radiating on clear nights. Like last night for example, I was 37 and NY 50, hence the differences in average. On cloudy nights, we are usually similar and same with nearly all daytime highs. What makes the temps marginal in nearly all winter storms in our area, big or small, has to do with the track. Many times, just a 5-10 mile difference in any direction in track can mean rain vs snow. That is the reason why I reached 50 2x and they didn't. Not because on clear nights I radiate so I am colder.

How does the gulf of alaska look on these charts?

Tampering probably JK, but that really is odd if you did the math and it is .4 warmer than what is listed. Maybe you found an error?

I've had 2 50" seasons since 2016 (the magic year), 17/18 (53") and 20/21 (51", I'm 37 miles as the crow flies away, so pretty much the same exact climate. Our snow averages are different by 2"). With some very slight adjustments in storm track (probably less than 20 miles) NYC could have had upper 40s to low 50s in those seasons as well (they had 41" in 17/18 and 39" in 20/21). I think that is where "luck" comes into play (being the "winner" vs "loser" in snow cutoffs/being in the best banding) and not CC.

Same for me.

Every source hyped the nor'easter up. It wasnt limited to what you are posting about here. I get where you are coming from, but 100% legitimate sources did the same in this case. Some will even argue it did verify if you lived on the coast or long Island, but the hype was originally for a more widespread storm.

I didn't really rain too much with the Nor'Easter in the D1 and D2 shades to make a dent.

Yeah, cloudy with a few breaks of sun has been more like it.

Nice sunrise this morning

Sports and after school activities prohibit how much school hours can be adjusted, especially for fields that don't have lights, which are still many. You also have to take into account travel from one school to the next. Also bussing schedules

Its a personal preference, just like you like it bright later. Yeah, this month sucks leaving in the dark, but then its bright again when we change it back in 2 weeks. I don't want it dark for months. I can take 1 month.

I prefer light in the morning. It is easier for me to wake up. I despise leaving for work in the dark. My body is telling me I should be sleeping ( studies showed kids learn better in daylight as well). When the sun goes down earlier, I'm already awake, so it doesn't bother me and the weather isn't enjoyable to be outside anyway.

I actually like it going down early in winter.

79 percent of Americans approved of the change in December 1973, approval had dropped to 42 percent three months later, the New York Times reported. Most hated it and it was still going down before they changed it back.

Thank you!

I'm not familiar with specific area's and coastal flooding. Did any area's flood that typically don't in these type of set-ups? On the news and social media, they always talk about the same areas it seems, so am wondering.

I got a storm of 9" a few days before the 12" band, and 28.75" for the winter and about .5" below my wiinter average. Some areas missed out, stinks for them. Anthony was spot on on his assessment. I have pictures of every snow to prove it.

I was hovering around .15 then last evening a random tiny yellow cell went through so I had a brief downpour.

.31" total.

Wow, I'm only at .11" haha!

Exactly. The whole globe really has to go all in. If bits and pieces do, it really won't matter much at all.

And you have 4x more rain than I've gotten only 13 miles away as the crow flies. But since I had a freeze, my garden is done, and this doesn't bother me one bit.
