wow I am surprised you are not far from me and we got according to my rain meter 1.40 so far....

Yeah I know earlier it was light for awhile I think most of it was just North of me

2.23" LGA
2.20" NYC
2.02" EWR

And it's official this November will now make 17 months in a row of above normal temperatures.

Can December finally break this ridiculous string? I'm not holding my breath.

Back from your "mission"?

Had some serious fog this morning. London was definitely calling, very uncomfortable night not sure if it ever went below 50

Continues the the longest such streak ever. Previously was 14 straight set not that long ago in 2011-2012.

I saw a couple cherry blossom trees thats sprouting blossoms this morning, reminded me of last Dec. Found that to be very odd. 60 degrees and some much needed rain woke it up. Its needs a freeze (probably a few..or one really cold one) to completely shut down. Looks like it will take until around Dec 10 or so to flirt with below freezing lows.

Round two commencing:

RGEM says hello

I'm up in Cooperstown, hardly any rain, .11" at home

today's event is a BIG underperformer so far here on the coast. .23" so far with just showery weather remaining. Will be lucky to hit .4" (we were forecasted for 1.25") N and W of NYC might approach .8"

Not much rain today .28 and .77 yesterday so just a little over an inch. Unless more comes thru later this was a just for me

It's amazing that the Heat Island has not had a day that touched freezing yet. I'm only 45 miles due north of the city and we've had 18 sub freezing mornings so far beginning with the first one October 11th.

.32" so far at home, WU reset again at noon! WTH!

I work about 10 miles north of the Bx, but sometimes it only takes a few miles to get into the big radational cooling differences. Technically it is a different climate zone.

I still have hanging baskets out and the geraniums are doing ok...a little frayed around the edges, and for the last two days no heat on and the house is 70.  I  can't even burn wood.  Maybe we could crowdfund a snow    making machine and truck it around to each member's house and make some winter up. Where my other house is near exit 36 on the parkway in NJ, folks will be planting pansies and putting them outside in four weeks. That was normal 30 years ago and now I suspect they could be put out at the end of November. It was always a pretty sight to see life outside even before the forsythia bloomed. Something about pansies with some ice on them as if shrugging the winter off always was cheerful. What will we see five years from now?

Odd, seemed fairly average around here at least, were past years warmer? Also hasn't seemed very wet except for this last storm, most of the northern part of this state still in severe drought as far as I know.

Total precip the last 2 days 2.29" and much needed!

Compared to last November it is colder, compared to average the string of above average months continued.

Most of the other climate stations besides Central Park had even larger departures from normal for Nov. LGA was 5th warmest Nov ever for example.
