The weekend weather forecast is kind of boring so let's review the superlatives from the storm without an end times nickname. Spread out over two days the storm set snowfall records for both the 26th and 27th. The 19 inches that were measured in Central Park ranks as the city's eighth greatest snowfall. This is also the snowiest January ever. The 36 inches that have fallen puts this month second only to last February as the snowiest of any month. This season is the sixth snowiest winter and winter is not yet half over.

Will we get to first place? There's less than an inch to go and flurries are possible through tomorrow night. Upper level disturbances will pass over the area both this afternoon and tomorrow afternoon. Today's short wave looks pretty weak but it may provide enough moisture and lift to produce a few flurries. Tomorrow's disturbance is going to pass so fast that any flurries shouldn't last long. Highs both days will be in the mid 30s.

High pressure arrives on Sunday ending any chance of snow for the month. Temperatures should stay slightly cooler than normal for the next week. That brings up a final snow superlative. Thanks to the cool weather and a few snowstorms the city has now had 33 straight days of snow cover.
