I've said this in the NW burbs sub-forum, but if you want to love the cold and not care as much about the snow, put up a skating rink in your yard. Instead of cliff jumping when it's another cold yet dry day, you can go ice skating instead.

Hmn . . . I do have a kiddy pool in my backyard.

At least that winter had about 7 inches of snow. This winter has just been blah and cold. Well, in January at any rate.

7" really? Where? We had about 2" in Long beach

Regardless this winter has been the worst in my option so far. Chopping ice in pouring rain is the absolute worst thing you could do

I measured 5.5 inches of snow on northern L.I. during the 2011-12 winter.  Amazingly poor winter.

2014-15 will definitely be better than 2011-12...I predicted 20 inches for Central Park for the season back in mid November and stand by that amount.  Parts of Long Island may see close to 30 inches before all is said & done.

If we happen to get another rain storm this month and not much more snow( though I believe we will)and it remains cold , it would look odd to see a Jan with 5" of precip, temps 4 degrees below normal and still less than 5" of snow...still time though.

so far this January is averaging about 29.0 in KNYC with 2" of snow...These are the coldest months with less than 4" of snowfall since 19...

Jan. 1940...25.0...3.5" of snow

Dec. 1989...25.9...1.4"

Jan. 1968...26.7...3.6"

Feb. 1968...28.9...1.1"

Feb. 2007...28.2...3.8"

Feb. 1963...28.3...3.7"

Feb. 1942...29.7...1.9"

Dec. 1958...29.4...3.8"

Dec. 1955...29.7...3.3"

Jan. 1959...31.1...1.5"

Jan. 1955...31.0...2.6"

Feb. 1980...31.4...2.7"

Now what if you add in the precip amounts in those months compared to this one along with the temperature and under 4" of snow data.

For some reason I can't remember if I was at 2.3" or 2.5".

 

Its important that you know the proper number...right up there with your SSN, your password for your ATM, and the combination on your luggage...I always use 1-2-3-4-5

High Anxiety

Whenever you're near

High Anxiety

Its you that I fear

 

My hearts afraid to fly

Its crashed before

But when you take my hand

My heart starts to soar

Once more

 

<Key change>

 

High anxiety

Its always the same

High anxiety

Its you that I blame

 

Its very clear to me

I've got to give in!

High anxiety

You win!

 

Jeepers Richard that was terrific!   Have you ever thought of singing professionaly? 

 

Oh, no...the big bucks are in psychiatry...
