uncle W Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 La Nina February's after a very cold December...It's closer to average... 1963 and 1996 were cold...56,71,01 were mild...the mild years had a cold March...The only mild March came in 1963...A year with below average snowfall...this year is special so far and we could see a great climax in early March...

donsutherland1 Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Bluewave, I agree with your idea that the NYC will likely see a colder than normal February. In fact, I suspect that a significant portion of the eastern third to half of the USA, southern Ontario, and southern Quebec, except for northern Maine north and eastward could wind up colder than normal. February should also see a continuation of above to perhaps much above normal snowfall from Philadelphia to Boston. I'll post more on that when either this weekend or early next week when I put together my February thoughts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A-L-E-X Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Don, The pattern has really been persistent.It's turning out to be one of those winters that just keeps on giving. Persistence seems to be the theme of the past 9 months; last summer was persistently hot and the winter so far has been persistently cold and snowy.

jm1220 Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Hopefully spring is persistently ****ing awesome. Nina Springs here are usually chilly with threats from backdoor fronts. There's usually at least one or two final snow threats in March, like in 2001 and 2009. But this isn't a normal Nina that torches for much of Jan/Feb, so who knows. The torrid heat we had last summer can stay the f**k away, please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
