this ties the record for latest snow for nyc...

I believe the NWS uses some sort of rule like if LGA/EWR report it they can report a T for NYC otherwise either ASOS has to have SN or UP at NYC.   ASOS isn’t capable of a RASN or SNRA report

when noaa switched to ASOS reporting its missed many a trace of snow...they need feet on the ground  but those days are over...there should be a video camera operating so we can go to the video tape as Warner Wolf used to say...

Slowly transitioning out of the severely below normal cool regime this week and back into the 60s / 70s with sunshine.  And longer range beyond  next weekend its either cutoff city or fist shot at 90s as deep trough looks to push into the west coast on Guidance.  Will be interesting to see how it evolves.

What would you estimate the odds are of warmer weather?  Cutoff implies bdcf?

Just give me temps in the 70's for now, we can turn on the oven Memorial Day weekend.

Last weekend's oasis of warmth seemed so long ago.  Agreed on the 70s but Ill take the upper 50s/low 60s  with sun tomorrow and enjoy it :-).  I guess i brought the cooler weather when returning from a winter on the wc easter weekend.

Id say at this point its too early but perhaps the tendency is to lean on the cooler/wetter scenario.  I think true sustained warmth and any  heat may be towards Memorial day weekend or early June.

I will take that too--just no more late march days disguised as May

Could go either way with the cutoffs. They can certainly sneak up on you and turn nice days into crap.

Still we'll finally be in an overall warm regime by Friday & next weekend with possibly slightly AN temperatures (mid-upper 70s).

It actually looks more typical for May by later next week. We get a warm up followed by a backdoor cold front.

For the past few years, it seems like our preferred weather patterns are “fast-forwarded” by a few months, delaying springs and summers on the front end, but extending them on the back end.  What explains it?

Remember we had a white thanksgiving in many areas.  Iirc a couple recent November’s have been cold.
