I hope the Euro stays a little more consistent. The GEM is calling for something moving through Tuesday, this cold is our best window for something I'm hoping it pans out in our favor The cold is coming in after Tuesday (the earliest will be Tuesday night), so look for something right after that.

LibertyBell Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 1 hour ago, Volcanic Winter said: Was just reading there are two other “pine barrens” in LI and MA, that’s very cool. Somehow I’ve lived down here for ten years and never really paid much mind or given much thought to it, but always felt it got a little ‘extra’ chilly here at night. Regarding the Jersey Devil, I grew up in central Monmouth and have fun memories playing in the woods with friends as a kid hunting the Jersey Devil. We’d tell each other crazy stories and go out at night and especially around Halloween. I remember one time someone deliberately threw a black garbage bag up in a tree deep in the woods to scare the crap out of us . Ahh, good times. Now let’s get some damn snow, eh? Finally my local forecast app doesn’t read like November beyond the next few days… ah I love stuff like that-- makes for some fun campfire stories! Getting some snow next week would be even more fun though! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically pretty warm wire-to-wire, but the biggest snowfall in NYC history and the coldest temp in 22 years. Sure. And if it wasn't for their biggest snowfall in history, it would have been one of the worst winters ever for snowfall, probably top 5 with just 5.4" 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluewave Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 9 hours ago, pazzo83 said: it's just... mild. Like, you walk outside, and it doesn't feel that cold. It's not like it's been 70+ (although we've had 6 days of 60s this month in DC). I think you are seeing the same thing in the urban areas all up and down I-95. There just isn't much cold air around, so at night, the UHI basically dominates. Sure, your typical areas will get their radiational cooling. But we're talking 20s at night - not exactly frigid. I think the most disconcerting thing is that literally after a frontal passage, it STILL struggles to get below freezing. WTF? Yeah, the low of 20° so far at a more rural station like Port Jervis is the warmest on record for January. It was 3° warmer than any previous January. Same for the urbanized NYC which only fell to 28° which was also 3° warmer than any other year. A more rural White Plains at the airport only dropped to 27° which was 5° warmer than the previous warmest.

EasternLI Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 10 hours ago, LibertyBell said: it needs to be on the level of 02-03 or 09-10, weak el ninos wont do it for us anymore Right. That's one way to do it. The other way is to see some cooling of that warm pool. And that's still possible at times as well, because there's still going to be at least some variation with it. Like there is with enso. That feature has the ability to take control of global weather patterns though. Since it's intrinsically linked with enso. So I personally have some grave concerns about that feature continuing to warm in the future. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donsutherland1 Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 With a low temperature of 36°, New York City's Central Park will record its 32nd consecutive above normal mean temperature. That sets a new record. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donsutherland1 Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 Morning thoughts… Clouds will increase today. It will be unseasonably mild. High temperatures will reach the upper 40s and lower 50s in most areas. Likely high temperatures around the region include: New York City (Central Park): 49° Newark: 51° Philadelphia: 52° The mild weather will continue through Monday before it turns colder. Normals: New York City: 30-Year: 39.5°; 15-Year: 39.8° Newark: 30-Year: 40.0°; 15-Year: 40.5° Philadelphia: 30-Year: 41.3°; 15-Year: 41.6° 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
