nzucker Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 Yes, sleet is mixing in here in Westchester; I believe this is the latest I've seen frozen precipitation in Dobbs Ferry. -PLRA 42.7/33 Looks like a parting gift from winter tonight on Mt. Zucker, have had some flakes mixing in from time to time...a few mangled ones just splattered on my driveway. HPN at 41/35 so I can't imagine this will last long, and it's certainly been mostly a rain event, but still very cool for late April. Definitely will be the last of wintry precipitation we see until November barring a freak event like May 10, 1977. Interestingly, the latest accumulating snowfall in modern times here in Dobbs Ferry took place on tomorrow's date...a few tenths accumulated on 4/24/1967 in what was certainly an unusual late winter/spring.

famartin Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 Temps haven't been an issue, it's cloud cover. I don't think it's too hard to ask for at least 3 days of sunshine per week; we've basically been getting 1-2 at best. I'd like to see how this spring compares to other years in terms of # of cloudy days. Now compare the number of cloudy days in NYC versus EKO so far this April, and tell me who the real wimp is. Actually it seems like there's been an unusual number of cloudy days this spring here as well. I can't do direct stats since EKO isn't augmented for cloud cover (or anything else, actually). EWR, LGA and JFK are running around 80% cloud cover for this month, which is quite high, so I'll grant you this part of the argument. Average is 60-70, I believe.

A 1035 mb hp system in play, it can work magic. It is what kept the rain away all day yesterday and why the models were drier with their qpf as the moisture headed twds the coast. As the ridge moved E ovn, the moisture moved in. This is pretty basic stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd venture to guess cloud cover is significantly above normal mar- april so far. I cant remember the las time weve had more than 2 days of sun. Ranks up there with some of the worst stretches in the spring. The only saving grace has been the sporadic warm days we've had bewteen the clouds.

Indeed, and the last 10 years have featured multiple wettest months and 50" (+) years. Looks like we're heading that way quickly this year. We will have a couple of nice days next week (Tue - wed) which will be a nice change Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
