uncle W Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 back in 1896 NYC was having three straight days in the upper 80s low 90s...this came after 33" of snow in March and early April...it was the benchmark for early warmth until 1976 and 2002 around this date...

Funny how the MJO never missed an opportunity to hit the warm phases between October and February. Since then, it has found a way to miss the warm phases every time. Next winter it would be nice if we could get the timing right for once, our clock has been off the last couple of winters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had this pattern started 1/15 or even 2/1 we would have possibly had historic seasonal snowfall totals... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was the first time that a March into April cold and snowy pattern made up for such a mild January 10th to February 28th. Now, there aren't any catalysts showing up yet that would flip the pattern back to extended warmth. So we take a few spring days at a time like Friday and Saturday.

Yeah, a colder winter version of the March into April storms may have resembled a wild stretch like 12/26/10 to 1/26/11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forky posted this yesterday which was music to my ears. Hopefully we are getting back into a much more active period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LongBeachSurfFreak Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 It’s incredibly raw out right now. Has an early March feel too it. Without any help warmingthe ocean it’s going to be a while before the coast sees sustained warmth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like things should start warming up a bit over the next few days but still below normal until we start getting more normal temps in the low to mid 60's beginning next week.

bluewave Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 Unusually cool spring so far in NYC for the 3/1-4/17 period since 1980. It's actually the 3rd coldest at 42.6 degrees. The same period in 2012 was 10 degrees warmer at 52.6. That was the second warmest of all time. #1...41.3...1984 #2...41.6...1996 #3...42.6....2018...2007...1992 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
