Yeah, coastal hugger has been one of the most popular storm tracks since the fall along with cutter. We got lucky with the storm tracks near the BM in early March which delivered the snows. Several storms were also suppressed to our south like the multiple Midatlantic snowstorms. The only coastal hugger to deliver a warning level snow in NYC was on November 15th. https://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/dailywxmap/index_20181116.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah trying to clean up some of the downed branches and trees in the adjacent woods...Just seems like there has been almost constant mud, standing water for months now....Been a wet year, would think ground water levels are high.

We really need the trees to leaf out and suck some of this water up. The forests are soggy right now and mostly not pleasant places to be. My yard is a disaster with two trees down and dozens of big branches and hundreds of twigs and small branches and it's so soft that I can only access some parts of it without sinking in an inch or more.

Got an outdoor event late morening into late afternoon Friday There may be some decaying squally showers late Friday afternoon/early evening on LI. Lapse rates become quite steep as the potent upper low and cold pool transition into the area. It's well timed with max heating over the mountains, so I think there could be a few thunderstorms with small hail just W/NW of the city Friday afternoon as the true cold front comes through.

Why do you clean up downed branches in the woods? I've seen people from the city move out here and send landscaping crews into the woods with leaf-blowers which always leaves (sorry for the pun) me scratching my head.. Is there any practical reason for this or just ignorance of the difference between forest and lawn? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donsutherland1 Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 The historic March heat continued for a third day in parts of the Pacific Northwest. Select temperatures included: Cultus Lake, BC: 77° (old record: 67°, 1986) Olympia, WA: 79° (old record: 73°, 1986) Quillayute, WA: 79° (old record: 68°, 1968) Seattle: 79° (old record: 74°, 1915) Shelton, WA: 80° (old record: 68°, 2010) Seattle had three consecutive days during which the temperature rose to 75° or above during the March 18-20 period. The previous earliest stretch of 3 or more consecutive days with 75° or warmer high temperatures occurred during April 17-20, 2016. The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was +0.70°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was +1.00°C for the week centered around March 13. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged +0.45°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged +0.80°C. Similar ENSO conditions will likely persist through much of March. The SOI was -3.64 today. It has been negative for 19 consecutive days and 42 out of the last 43 days. Today's preliminary value of the Arctic Oscillation (AO) was +2.283. The AO has now been positive for 41 consecutive days. The last time the AO was positive for at least that long was during the April 13, 2018 through June 3, 2018 period when the AO was positive for 52 consecutive days. Historic probabilities favor the continuation of a predominantly positive AO through the remainder of March. On March 19, the MJO was in Phase 3 at an amplitude of 0.406 (RMM). The amplitude was slightly higher than the March 18-adjusted figure of 0.382. Tomorrow into Friday, a strong storm will move along the coastline of the Northeastern United States. Much of the region could receive 0.50"-1.50" rain with locally higher amounts. A moderate to significant snowfall is possible in the Adirondacks, northern Vermont, northern New Hampshire, western Maine and parts of Quebec. Another system could bring the risk of precipitation to the region during the March 26-28 period. Some of the guidance suggests the possibility of at least some frozen precipitation from that latter system. Such an outcome would be consistent with historical experience. A small number of the 12z EPS members continue to show 4" or more snow for Philadelphia, New York City, and Boston. Since 1869, New York City has had 10 cases during the March 1-7 period when 6.0" or more snow fell and the average temperature was 32.0° or below. All 10 cases had additional measurable snowfall afterward. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donsutherland1 Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 Through March 20, New York City had received 9.10" precipitation. That is 0.32" below normal. However, a storm will bring a widespread 0.50"-1.50" rain to the region later tomorrow and Friday. Some locally higher amounts are possible. As a result, the City's precipitation will likely move above normal. Based on sensitivity analysis applied to the computer guidance, the following are implied probabilities for specified amounts: 0.50" or more: 99% 0.75" or more: 94% 1.00" or more: 76% 1.25" or more: 43% 1.50" or more: 15% 1.75" or more: 3% During 2018, New York City received 65.55" precipitation making 2018 New York City's 4th wettest year on record. The implied probabilities of New York City's receiving 50.00" or more precipitation this year are as follows: Historic climate record (1869-2018): 27% 1971-2018 Period: 50% With the City's climate having grown wetter following 1970, the latter (50%) probability is probably more realistic. Even as such cities as Philadelphia, New York, Newark, and Boston see rain, a moderate to significant snowfall is possible across the Adirondacks, northern Vermont, northern New Hampshire, western Maine, and part of Quebec. Through March 20, Burlington had picked up 95.1" snow making winter 2018-19 that city's 17th snowiest winter on record. 2018-19 is also Burlington's snowiest winter since 2016-17 when 100.4" snow fell. The ranking for 2018-19 would be as follows for the following snowfall amounts: 1": 16th snowiest 2": 14th snowiest 4": 12th snowiest 6": 10th snowiest 8": 10th snowiest 10": 9th snowiest 12": 9th snowiest Meanwhile, Atlanta has received 0.0" snow through March 20. Atlanta has never had a winter without at least a trace of snow since snowfall records were kept beginning in 1928-29. During the span of its snowfall record, Atlanta had 25 days with a trace of snow (3 of which contained measurable snow) from March 21 through April 30, including 9 days in April. Atlanta's latest measurable snowfall was 7.9", which was recorded on March 24, 1983. That implies that Atlanta still has some probability of seeing at least a trace of snow this winter based on its historic climate record. Finally, there remains some ensemble support for a measurable snowfall in Boston, New York City, and/or Philadelphia during the March 26-28 period. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJwx85 Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 Sorry I am late to the game, but the convection last week was very impressive locally. Three separate thunderstorms, all with intense lightning, heavy rain and some gusty winds. Didn't see any hail but I know they had quarter sized hail in Paramus, about 5-6 miles away.

donsutherland1 Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 As of 7 pm, New York City had received 0.36" rain bringing annual precipitation for 2019 to 9.46". As a result, the probability of a year in which 50.00" or more precipitation falls has increased to 51% (1971-2018 data). The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was +0.70°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was +1.00°C for the week centered around March 13. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged +0.45°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged +0.80°C. Similar ENSO conditions will likely persist through much of March. The SOI was -5.64 today. It has been negative for 20 consecutive days and 43 out of the last 44 days. Today's preliminary value of the Arctic Oscillation (AO) was +1.972. The AO has now been positive for 42 consecutive days. The last time the AO was positive for at least that long was during the April 13, 2018 through June 3, 2018 period when the AO was positive for 52 consecutive days. Historic probabilities favor the continuation of a predominantly positive AO through the remainder of March. On March 20, the MJO was in Phase 3 at an amplitude of 0.163 (RMM). The amplitude was much lower than the March 19-adjusted figure of 0.406. The amplitude was also the lowest since October 21, 2018 when the MJO had an amplitude of 0.153). Tonight into tomorrow, a strong storm will move along the coastline of the Northeastern United States. Much of the region could receive 0.50"-1.50" rain with locally higher amounts. A moderate to significant snowfall is possible in the Adirondacks, northern Vermont, northern New Hampshire, western Maine and parts of Quebec. Another system could bring the risk of precipitation to the region during the March 26-28 period. Some of the guidance suggests the possibility of at least some frozen precipitation from that latter system. Such an outcome would be consistent with historical experience. However, the persistent but low ensemble support for a 4" or more snowfall in Boston, New York City, or Philadelphia has diminished. Since 1869, New York City has had 10 cases during the March 1-7 period when 6.0" or more snow fell and the average temperature was 32.0° or below.
