pattern is going to be reloadin next week and all of the  indicies once again will be moving similar to the last storm towards neutral at the same time - so one would expect another east coast storm early to mid week of the 17th - also the MJO is now in phase 7

Ahh, first time in a LONG time that the wind actually felt refreshing instead of biting on my run today.  Looks like we will have to deal with a dip in temps later next week into the weekend, but the cold is waning.

We should have one more stretch of cold weather, accompanied by snow threats, from March 14-21. The southern stream shortwave around 3/21 is probably NYC's last chance for accumulating snowfall, though threats for the suburbs could continue into early April given the -NAO progged.

Donald Sutherland is credited n the second edition of a book I got (second edition), first for Christmas as a newlywed, now for my birthday.

 

Between being the best amateur (or at least top 10) on the forum, and the Dr. Seuss version of the NAM, he deserves a special colored tag as the best amateur on AmWx.

Dont like it being stuck in weather limbo.  Its not cold enough for snow but it is still forecasted to be unseasonably cold.  I wonder when we hit 60s. Accuweather's current 25 day outlook does not have a single day in the 60s for nyc (into april).  Compared to last spring (if it verifies), that is pretty crazy.

Our stretch of highly anomalous minimum temps just continues unabated, regardless of pattern.  Despite the fact that this first stretch of March has run just a bit on the chilly side, our avg min so far of 34.2F is basically a degree shy of the overall monthly average of 35F.

the city hasn't seen minimums near the record low levels in a while...not to mention record lows...I haven't done the math but I bet the 2010's are the warmest years for minimums...

Anyone remember the March 13,2010 noreaster?

Yes that thing was wicked. Brought 5" of rain to my backyard and the worst winds outside of Sandy and Boxing Day.

 

It was the first real big flood we had in town since Floyd in 99', was in the middle of a very stormy two and half year period.

While we're in throwback mode I thought it would be cool to post this local weather forecast from the NWS (KFJK) from the morning that 96 began.

 

What stands out is the low temperatures that started out in place.

 

Pretty cool to go back and watch old weather channel stuff from when the channel was actually watchable.

Vividly, 3/13/10 and Sandy are neck and neck for me. Being trapped on the GWB while the car you're in is being lifted off of the ground by wind isn't fun at all, especially when you're in the lane closest to the Hudson and in the passenger seat.

Good old March 13/2010. Standing on the Long Beach board walk next to Mike Betis from the TWC as 70 mph gusts made mini sand tornadoes. Very very hard to stand up especially in enhanced areas in between buildings. Wind impact is second only to Sandy and maybe dec 92 in my lifetime. Coastal flood would have been epic had it lasted longer.
