Ed, snow and hurricane fan Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 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...

USCG RS Posted September 10 Share Posted September 10 On 2/15/2024 at 7:51 PM, LibertyBell said: 2002-03.... that's such an underrated winter that did well for a lot of people. 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...

Living the next town over from Bound Brook at the time and seeing that flooding is something I won't forget. 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...
