NorthShoreWx Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 I recall it (1974-75) as a rather frustrating winter, but the one storm in February was quite decent. The 2/12 storm was the heaviest since February 1969 (shows how bad the early 70s were for snow). 2/12 started as sleet around 8 or 9AM, but the sleet literally only lasted a few minutes. It ended around 3 or 4 PM, so the rates were greater than 1"/hour. The 0.3" the following day were from a gusty morning snowsquall which was followed by a windy day with some blowing snow. After the 2/12 storm ended the sky cleared and Syosset radiated down to 5 degrees with no wind by around midnight, but rebounded to the upper 20s by morning. The 2/13 morning snowsquall marked the edge of a reinforcing shot of cold air which essentially kept temperatures from rising any on the 13th. Those two days were the best that particular winter had to offer. The snowfall on 2/5 ended as a little bit of light rain and drizzle and left us with a mushy snowcover. The 3/14 snowfall was a mix of snow and sleet that trended more towards sleet as the day went on. There may have been a little freezing rain in the mix, but sleet was predominant. The forecast was for 6-10" . Here are all of the snow events for Syosset (northeastern Nassau County) for that winter (the total for the winter was 23.5"). They seem in line with your notes, although we did a lot better on 1/20: 11/21 - T 11/25 - 0.5" 12/3 - T 12/9 - T 12/10 - T 12/19 - T 12/31 - 0.5" 1/3 - 0.1" 1/13 - 1.0" 1/14 - T 1/18 - T 1/20 - 4.1" 1/21 - T 1/31 - T 2/1 - T 2/5 - 4.9" 2/6 - 0.1" 2/9 - 0.3" 2/12 - 9.1" 2/13 - 0.3" 2/17 - T 3/10 - 1.0" 3/14 - 1.5" 3/15 - T 3/30 - 0.1" 4/4 - T 1974-75 was an awful winter...It was supposed to be a great one but...Bob Harris gave a long range forecast in November 74 calling for at least two major snowstorms in January and February...There were two snow events in January and February but only one came close to major...

It was actually a week before, but I get your point....we also had snow in april, 80s in march and not much snow in between The 1989-90 winter gets a bad wrap around here; and deservedly so...but there was some excitement that season out on eastern L.I.... That winter was notable for the severe cold that enveloped the region during November and December. On 11/23/1989 a coastal storm developed and brought the first substantial November snowfall the region had seen in decades. While the event could be deemed "plowable" in the five boroughs of NYC, out on the Twin Forks and closer to the Atlantic Low, it was a major storm. Snowfall 11/23/1989: Bridgehampton: 10.0" NYC Central Park: 4.7" JFK Airport: 3.7" As the New Year arrived, the rubberband snapped and the NY area was flooded with mild air. January was fairly inactive, but on 2/25/1990, the area came under the influence of a developing Norlun Trough. This feature produced some prodigious snow totals over the East End, but managed to just brush the NYC area with some light snows. Snowfall 2/25/1990: East Hampton 14.0" Bridgehampton: 13.0" Cutchogue 13.0" Greenport: 12.0" NYC Central Park: 1.8" JFK Airport: 1.3" That was basically it for the winter, but when the bookeeping was complete the snow totals showed what has to be deemed a passable / perhaps even good winter on the East End, but an unimpressive one for NYC.

Stormlover74 Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 There were also alot of near misses that year, and of course the 12/15/89 change to rain debacle, and some storms that stayed offshore. I remember the 2/25/90 event but thought it was more of a clipper, followed by another event in early March that overperformed. Supposed to get a dusting and I thought we got about 3" (at least in NE NJ). I believe it was one week prior to hitting 85 degrees on the 13th. Wasn't a boring winter for sure just one that was ripe with potential but for the most part fell short of expectations with a lot of disappointment.

Just the fact that we had a snow of significance in October is remarkable. yeah and the storm basically followed the same track as every coastal storm last year. This could be a very good winter if that pattern continues lol The H5 patterns and setups have been amazing these past 2 winters..Something besides the NAO must be driving these storms up the coast and bombing them out. I think you, earthlight, and now apparently JB are bullish on a cold/stormy december. Would like to get HM in the mix too lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
