Jan 1994, got to 0 and below in two separate Arctic shots. Hopefully we get a similar February turnaround, although perusing the New England threads, they don't expect anything for the first half of February. So we basically have the last two weeks of February and the first two weeks of March. 2012-13 was like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as I want this winter to be over and back to warm weather, I’m still quite leery of late February and early March. I have a nagging feeling that we haven’t seen the last cold/snow period. Cold/snow in March is awful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JFK couldn't have gotten much, it looked like a small coating or dusting around here even though you couldn't see anything outside for 30 min.

NYC now has more seasonal snow than 12-13 by the end of January. Both years had odd El Niño interactions. Remember that El Niño peaked in the fall and diminished into the winter.

CPcantmeasuresnow Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 The 0.4 inches of snow recorded in Central Park, yesterday, now leaves NYC needing 30.7 inches of snow between now and December 31 2020 to reach a 30 inch average for snowfall, when the new 30 year averages come out in January 2021. The average would now be 29.0 inches if no more snow fell between now and December 31 2020. The current monthly averages for NYC for Jan 1991-Jan 2019 October......0.1 November....0.5 December....5.0 January.......8.9 February....10.8 March.........4.9 April...........0.4 Seasonal Avg..30.7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wdrag Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 2 hours ago, LibertyBell said: Maybe the colder air moving further east increases the chances of NYC getting to negative numbers this morning! What I remember about Jan 1985 is that it hit -2 in NYC and it was the last time we had a high in the single digits. Atlanta got down to -8 and it was -18 in the DC area! There were several zero or below Arctic shots here in the early to mid 80s- Christmas 1980, Jan 1982, Jan 1985 I heard low was 2F at NYC CP this morning. Haven't had chance to verify and on the run now , but I hard only 4 days this cold in the past 30 years... heard from one of your favorite long rangers. It is having impact here today.
