A-L-E-X Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Hey Unc for coolest springs you have 1888 listed as both #1 and #2 Wow the whole top ten of coolest springs is entirely within the 1800s and except for 1921 and 1945 the top 10 warmest are from 1977 and later. The top 6 wettest are 1980 and later. The only grouping with a reasonable scattering of years is the top 10 driest-- and even that only has one from the last 50 years or so (1995.)

Alpha5 Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Yeah, but the wet/dry pattern is interesting too. True....that sort of thing is what can make weather so interesting. Anyways, any thoughts on what spring could bring this year? How do nina's affect spring climate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do nina's affect spring climate? Based on the above I'd go with mild/wet lol. Although if the blocking comes back, it could be cool/wet. Ugh.

uncle W Posted February 28, 2011 Author Share Posted February 28, 2011 four of the top five wettest springs came in the 1980's...The average temperature leveled off the last 30 years not counting last year...The last two Aprils had temperatures in the 90's...1967 is the last time NYC averaged in the 40's...

pazzo83 Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Wow, 2010 basically blows the other springs away wrt temperature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sundog Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Wow, 2010 basically blows the other springs away wrt temperature. It's almost 13 degrees warmer than the coolest spring, and that is damn impressive to do during a season that is an intermediate between hot and cold.

A-L-E-X Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 LOL look at that 85 on 3/13/90 that is the earliest 85 in NYC by more than two weeks! Newark was even warmer! What a horrendous winter that was and yet in April we got an inch of snow. November and April were the two best months that snow season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamarack Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 LOL look at that 85 on 3/13/90 that is the earliest 85 in NYC by more than two weeks! Newark was even warmer! What a horrendous winter that was and yet in April we got an inch of snow. November and April were the two best months that snow season. 3/13 has a 79F spread between its record high and low in NYC - not many dates with that breadth of temps. The spread for all of January is only 78. Also cool that the record low came in the 1888 blizzard. Without going any further than Unc's snowfall thread, I found 2/24 also with 79 (75/-4) and 2/15 at 81 (73/-8.) I think that only two other dates have any chance of joining the crowd, 2/9 and 12/30, due to their lows of -15, -13. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IsentropicLift Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 I've been holding out the hope for more snow but I think it has finally sunk in that winter is over. Sure we can get a few days with below normal temps but you can see that the pattern is just way to progressive and as soon as the SE ridge seems to get knocked down or pushed eastward it just re-establishes itself a few days later. Time to move on to what looks like a rainy spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBG Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 It's almost 13 degrees warmer than the coolest spring, and that is damn impressive to do during a season that is an intermediate between hot and cold. Actually you'd expect that during a transitional period. During the summer the low 100's appears to be an overall max temperature and during the winter, with a few very scattered exception -5F appears to be a minimum. So your springs and falls can vary almost all the way to overall maximums and minimums, whereas on the topside in summer we're "maxed out".
