Ed, snow and hurricane fan Posted July 31, 2024 Share Posted July 31, 2024 Just now, Ed, snow and hurricane fan said: I'm a little weenie on New England/New York hurricanes, both of my parents remembered 1938 quite well, but a strong tropical storm with the Bermuda-Azores ridge building back in, well, not 1938, that is more likely in September or October, but a Hurricane Belle scenario, which I remembered and which, along with 1978 on Long Island, made me a lifelong Gen X weenie. I try to contain my weenieness in the tropical forum threads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PD2 was also extremely underrated, rarely do you see a storm dump over 2 feet of snow in Baltimore, JFK AND BOSTON. Those kind of widespread snowstorms seem to have become an endangered species. That's what was special about PD2 and 2002-03 was snowy right from December through April. A throwback winter just like 1995-96 (which from what I remember was also exceptional in the Midwest and East Coast. We all had a "return to winter" arctic shot in February that was historic.) We haven't had a true KU in a good while. I remember growing up just watching the Weather Channel for any information I could get on those storms. I may have been a geek.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orographic in some way? I'd agree with that plus it's on the north shore, so away from the ocean and in the middle of the island. Everything points to that area as being the most favorable-- and you add elevation to it-- and it's a cinch. The only time it doesn't jackpot is in strong el ninos, when we seem to jackpot on the south shore-- when we have an all snow snowstorm that is. February 1983, PD2 and January 2016 are examples of this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here on the south shore, it only happened two times in my life that we had the growing season end in October, it's typically almost always ended in Mid to Late November.

There were so many vehicles stuck on the roads where I live. ATG storm. Will never forget it. I lived in North Brunswick for that one, and my then girlfriend (now wife ) and I were completely snowed in on our ground floor apartment with drifts damn near to the top of our front door. It was absolutely wild. And where I live now was a second jackpot area in NJ; just an all around NYC / NJ legendary affair. The year prior we had another major event too, I was still in Long Branch at school for that one and I remember something close to 20 inches. Back to back legendary December storms, just doesn’t get better than that. Feels almost impossible nowadays. That stretch from 2009-2016 (ending at the HECS) was just magical to live through in this area. I wish I savored it more, at the time had many distractions away from the weather… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
