Ane New York City is underwater. We just aren’t woke enough to see it yet.
But it’s unusually warm snow.
People who go out in weather like that, especially unprepared, deserve what they get.
When the NWS forecasts that much snow that far in advance, it is wisdom to take note and get ready for it and stay put.
One factor that is rarely mentioned in weather forecasting is the certainty of an event happening. For some reason, it is not usually mentioned, but I have come to notice that, especially with nor’easters, the further out they forecast it, the more likely it is to happen.
Now, granted, the exact storm track and total snowfall amounts are still subject to variation depending on the exact storm track, but still, sometimes conditions in the atmosphere are very stable and allow for more accurate forecasting.
Technically, this storm did not qualify as a nor’easter but when the storms come across from out west, when they reach the Atlantic coast, they in effect behave just like one. So it doesn’t have to be an actual nor’easter to get what those Mid-Atlantic states got.
This is a pic of me driving my truck last APRIL in Massachussets
What was hilarious about this is that the climate obsessors blamed Gov-elect
Youngkin who won’t be sworn in til the 15th............Northam is still governor.
I thought there were supposed to be palm trees and alligators in Minnesota by now.
Her childhood was stolen by activist adults.
How much of the problem in Virginia stems from not having snow plow drivers?
Damn You Global Warming
Yep, me and the family also.
Fifty years ago such a snow storm would be used as proof we were entering THE NEW ICE AGE which was all the rage back then.
1977 was real bad here. Used as proof the Ice Age was upon us.
In Alaska, in the USAF, we were taught winter survival skills for driving.
Keep several wool blankets in the car.
Keep two or more cans of STERNO and matches in the car.
Keep hard candy as it increases body heat when eaten.
No need to keep running the car engine as the snow may cause CO from the exhaust to enter the car.
I always kept these in the car back in “The World” of the lower 48.
“CHILDREN JUST AREN’T GOING TO KNOW WHAT SNOW IS”
Lol just for the title!!
Hot weather is global warming. Cold weather is global warming. Everything is global warming.
Anyone dumb enough to believe climate change is a “fixable problem” is dumber than the mud that fills their otherwise empty heads.
Seems there are certain areas that run into this situation about every winter. Isn’t there someone available in those states who realizes what needs to be done & does it?
