WeatherFox Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Ugh, I'm going to AMS in New Orleans and leaving Friday morning. I would miss the (slight) chance of snow on Saturday. Good thing to leave on Friday because you might get a weather delay if you waited for Saturday. Have a good time in New Orleans at the conference.

Guest Pamela Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 When you say inland are you referencing to "just inland"? Most of Orange county has averaged 60-65" in the last 11 yrs.. MBY alone has averaged 66.3" since 2002.. How much snow did you personally measure at your location during the 2008-09 and 2009-10 winters?

atownwxwatcher Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 HM likes a cold February http://www.examiner....ly-for-february That is allan huffman The bottom line is this, I think February will be the coldest month of the winter for the US. That isn’t saying much I know, but there are signs that the preview of spring we see to end January will not be the pattern the rest of the winter, but a colder pattern may evolve by February. We shall see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Pamela Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 49" for the 08/09 season.. 75" for the 09/10 season The cooperative at Rock Hill roughly 10 miles to your NW in Sullivan County at 1270 feet had 52.3" in 2008-09 and 71.7" in 2009-10...so I'd say your numbers seem pretty reasonable for those two years...especially given that co-ops traditionally undermeasure or have some missing data...

And considering precip has been concentrated further to the east it makes sense.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just asked to see if you were some kind of weather weenie or a serious observer...if you had told me like 80 inches for the '09 and 100 inches for '10...I would have suspected the former...

Strongbad Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Good man... It's pretty obvious he ends up doing better than the coast, NYC, or LI. It's amazing if you check the cutoff in elevation b/w Orange and Rockland counties. Almost upon entering Orange, the mountains hit you and you know you're in a different climate.

IsentropicLift Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 And to be fair.. a good chunk of the eastern part of the county recieved 80-85" in 09/10 season.. to say that Long Island does just as well as NW areas is a bunch of garbage. Perhaps I am underestimating Long Island snowfall just as much as posters from Long Island underestimate northwest snowfall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not just Orange county, the same can be said for parts of Western Passaic northward and westward. 287 is pretty much the boundry between elevation and valley. Of course the elevation continues to increase the further NW you travel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Show me the posts where I argue that Long Island receives "more snowfall" on average than areas to the northwest of NYC and we can continue this discussion...

psv88 Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 confirmation that SW nassau/JFK is truly the screw zone...wow. Im surprised at that pattern a bit. I think it depends on the winter. most winters id think more of a SE to NW increase, not the SW to NE show on that map... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IsentropicLift Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 I cannot recall ever arguing the contrary...that would be foolish... The elevation is most noticable for events like tonight. For example, I will probably only end up with a light glaze overnight. Even places with some decent elevation like Butler and West Milford probably won't see much more. Hewitt on the other hand is quite a bit higher in elevation than the rest of the county, and that stretch NW towards Vernon could see significant icing overnight. Not to be obvious but I would think our friends in Orange County stand the best chance at holding onto the most frozen/freezing precip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to let you know...and I mean this is an entirely respectful way...I am not exactly new to this stuff...when Mattingly went .324 / 35 HR / 145 rbi's...the year you were born...I had already been following the area's climatology for some time...

Stormlover74 Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Most places are having trouble getting above freezing, even in the city and coast. I think temps are supposed to hold steady or rise slightly overnight though. We probably will stay below freezing till tomorrow afternoon.
