There hasn't been any measurable snow so far this season, meaning no snow piling up to at least 1/10th of an inch. VMurdockTV spoke with state climatologists about how unusual this is and if it could impact our water supply in warmer months.
-- There hasn't been any measurable snow in the Tri-State Area so far this season, meaning no snow piling up to at least 1/10th of an inch.
Captured on camera in Whitestone, Queens, 313 days ago, our last measurable snowfall, totaling .4 inches, blanketed the ground on March 9, 2022. We now rank fourth on the list of longest snowless stretches."I'm a little surprised because usually around this time of year, we have a big snow storm," Brooklyn resident Tony Frankov said.
"Climatologists, meteorologists love weather records. This is one I'd rather we not see, as a snow lover," said Dr. Dave Robinson, New Jersey state climatologist at Rutgers University."When you look back into the late starts, you see them ... going back over a century," he said."Usually summer droughts start in the winter with a lack of snowfall," said Mark Wysocki, New York state climatologist at Cornell University.
But for those who want snow, Robinson says at this point, it's not likely we'll see above average accumulation this season.
