snywx Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Parts of LI average 35"-45" over the past 16 years. You're stuck in the 1980s and 90s. And I've averaged 58.8" in the same time frame! lol.. Whats your point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ag3 Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 And I've averaged 58.8" in the same time frame! lol.. Whats your point The point is that you are stuck in the 1980s and 1990s and you think LI averages only 25". Ask northshorewx what his area averages over the last 16 years. Ask William, bass28, PSV and the other crew. They all average 35"-45". Here in Queens my 16yr average is 34". The 1980s and 1990s skewed the averages. The new averages for NYC and the coast are 30"-40". Not 25"-30". That's all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It actually annoys me when I see TWC and other area Mets post the NYC average as 25.1. The 30 year average 1981-2010 is actually 25.8 and was corrected by NOAA in 2014 when someone pointed out to them that they couldn't add and divide. Yes I take full credit. The running 30 year average for KNYC is now 28.6, the average since 1991 is 30.6, and the average since 2000 is 33.8 inches. A pretty remarkable rise when also considering the many under measurements in Central Park during that time frame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think for many years...when they sort of averaged it back to the beginning...not *the beginning* but sometime in the 1860's when observations began in earnest...the mean was always in the 29.0 - 29.5 inch range by the mid 20th century.

Hailstorm Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Going to be very depressing next week. We will miss both storms, and per the SE forum, Euro absolutely torches the whole eastern CONUS with zonal, Pacific air at Day 7+. Today is our final storm most likely.

LIsnowBubble Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 lol.. for real! Places that average 25-30" of snow have 7 times what Albany has by 2/5 in the warmest winter ever! Its actually quite comical. ...Think about that... If someone told me that before the winter started I would say they are nuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Pamela Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Welcome back!! Thank you JM; thank you very much. I hope you are enjoying your time down in the Sunbelt...though I somehow sense the absence of snow & cold can be a rather unsettling aspect of ordinary winter down there.

SnowGoose69 Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 After today even if NYC sees no snow the rest of the way everyone can officially toss the we would have broken the 72-73 record. I think they are at 2.9 now without the blizzard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CiBill Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 If it lasts a week and then we go below on Monday is it trasient? Depends on how long the below temps last. The models have been flipping back and forth between cold and warm solutions past the 15-18th, so confidence in a locked in below normal pattern isn't exactly through the roof ATM. Likewise for a AN pattern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coastalplainsnowman Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Based on my Upton forecast (and others) for SE Nassau, next week should be interesting. The word snow is quite prevalent, and the high temps drift downward over the period. Somehow seeing a forecast like this, however unlikely it may be, never gets old for some of us. Sunday Night: Slight chance of snow Monday: Snow Likely Monday Night: Snow Likely Tuesday: Snow Likely Tuesday Night: Snow Likely Wednesday: A chance of snow Wednesday Night: A chance of snow Thursday: A chance of snow Thursday Night: Mostly cloudy Friday: A chance of snow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
