This month is set to become the first January in 75 years that New York City has been without any measurable snowfall, according to the National Weather Service.

Less than one-tenth of an inch has fallen in a month that usually produces more than eight inches of snow in the city, according to the National Weather Service.

The phenomenon can be traced to the lack of offshore storms, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service, Joseph Pollina, said.

"We've had a number of systems move up the East Coast in not a favorable track for snow," Mr. Pollina said. "Most of the storms have been inland, west of New York City. We haven't really had too much cold air, but when we do, it hasn't coincided with precipitation."

Déjà Vu? Springtime Weather In January Returns

Just Like In 2007, Temperatures To Climb Into 60s In NYC This Week

NEW YORK (CBS) ― For the second straight year, Mother Nature is teasing New Yorkers with a pleasant surprise in January: springtime weather conditions.

Just when it seemed like winter's bite kicked into gear with wind chills in single digits last week, some unexpected mild air is moving into the region and will make for a fantastic start to the work week. By Tuesday, temperatures should hit at least 60 degrees for much of the tri-state region.

One of the Many Reasons Living on Long Island Rocks!

The city and its sights, sounds, smells and tastes are only 45 minutes away!
I love New York, New York!

What a Way To Start A New Year!

Happy New Year! May yours be blessed by the LORD!

Late this morning there was a flash and then boom- boom- boom! We began the New Year here on the Island with a thunderstorm! It is now nearly 4 o'clock in the afternoon. The sky has cleared out (for now) and the sun is shining. In other areas of the state it is snowing, here once again it feels like spring- but that is all going to change after the next few days.

Winter is supposed to be blowing in any time now.
