  1. Light to moderate snow here and temp is down to 32. The street is beginning to cave. It's not out of the question we end up with an inch here, but we had two or more inches of snow twice last winter so no records for futility are not on the table.
  2. Pingers now. But we've got at least .1" Fun times. Happy shoveling on the mainland.
  3. It's trying, there are few larger flakes but the snow here remains quite light. There's now a slushy coating on the lawn, but not enough yet to call measurable. Temp down to 33.2
  4. Gotta take the opportunity, before having to confront actual verification, to gloat that in the last frame, all of NNJ and Rockland, and much of OC are mixed precip while it is still snowing here.
  5. Happy New Year y'all. I just scrolled through 6 pages of post-mortem for a storm that hasn't happened yet. Interspersed with the noise was a strong consensus that it is going to mostly rain here and snow somewhere else. Ever the optimist, I will be checking the snow light periodically and harboring unreasonable hopes for both the front and backend. So sue me. PS the title of this thread is confusing. It looks like last summers banter thread. On the plus side, the title takes up less than 5 lines on my phone (apologies to Walt)
  6. Pretty sure the south shore did that in February 2013. And late February 2010. May have happened in February 2015 too. Probably others. I just went on a drive north to find the rain snow line. Its at the northern state. 3 inches and white out in brookville rain here in wantagh!! https://www.americanwx.com/bb/topic/39242-february-8th-9th-snowstormblizzard-event-observations/?do=findComment&comment=2096691
  7. Being under that band from around 5pm was sheer madness. There wasn't much wind yet, just suffocating snow.
  8. I doubt it. That's the type of solution that can improve one area and make another area worse. I doubt there is any room for the required impoundment to hold the water, almost certainly not without flooding residences. That creek has been flooding the parkway since it was built, although 3 times in one month is a lot.
  9. The clown maps for this on C-E LI are going to be suitable for framing. 3'+
  10. The latest UN climate models have been indicating that this fog won't lift until we have completely reversed AGW. So far they are dead-on. Smithtown, 6PM. 43° fog vis ~0.25mi Same as yesterday evening, same as Christmas Eve. Fog never lifted today.
  11. That part of Nassau still radiates well. FYI, I grew up there and am an SHS graduate.
  12. We walk to Sweetbriar! I'm just north of Oakside. I do more hiking instead of jogging these days, but I remember clear calm nights jogging when there were low spots in that part of the neighborhood (near Eckerncamp and Old Lander's comes to mind) where it was noticeably colder. I often notice a couple of spots down there on Wundermap (one of which I assume is yours) are a degree or two colder on a calm night I'm at about 122 feet and I think you must be closer to 40. That may help with cold pooling. My spot being a little closer to the Sound might be part of it too, although the difference is less than a mile. We sometimes keep a light breeze when other areas fully decouple. We were 25⁰ Friday morning, which seemed a few degrees warmer than a lot of other places on the island. I'm at 8.02" rain for the month. We had 5.01" for the first big rainer and 1.92" for the most recent plus a couple of smaller totals early in the month. This is one of the biggest months in the 28 years we've been here, maybe the biggest...I'll have to check
  13. Bottomed out at 22.6 here. Most places a little farther south from the Sound were 3 or 4 degrees colder. Heat content of the Sound must be above normal...we're usually almost caught up to more inland parts of central LI by now in terms of nighttime lows.
  14. My favorite sledding spot was the 15th hole on the black course. They'd lock you up and throw away the key if you tried that now.
