All Activity

Yeah Atlantic Canda gets it way better than us. Frequent recurving canes, coastal storms, and more snow in the winter. They get the best of both whereas New England is too far west for the recurving canes and too warm for frequent snowstorms. I could definitely live with a Nova Scotia winter better than a winter in this area.

Down to 30F, Clear with calm winds.

DEN set a new November record today with a high of 83.

Down to 25 here. Coldest evening this season, I wonder if we get lower than the lowest we’ve had (19)

Gonna be a chilly one tonight. Clear skies, dead calm, and already down to 28.9°.

I guess you’re rooting for the Ravens.

. I’m in love.

I had the same with the vantage vue. When the sun hit it directly it would read about 2 degrees higher than when totally in the shade.

In CT for now. We just have to get on the board however we can. I don’t want to hear people wanting to trade a minor/moderate short range opportunity for some fantasy big dog. The 2020s have shown how we can lose both. And to be fair, we’ve been fairly active tropical wise—it just hasn’t been high end. Isaias, Henri, and some weaker ones in there. Say nothing of Atlantic Canada cooking and our Oct 2021 Cape “cane”.

Mine does this too, but I have 2 separate thermometers for temperature since my station is poorly sited, but I knew that going in when I put it up.

Sitting at .73 inches of rain today, really didn't expect much at all.

Yeah not very often. We did have one in 2006 and then in Oct 2021. Hurricanes….CC or not, what determines impacts in SNE are the patterns.

My first shot at this potential event-- the coastal timing will bounce back and forth on the 10th to 11th. I only expect a white rain event at the best. Just not cold enough to see accumulating snow this time of the year in the valleys. The cold air has not been really locked in yet. Strictly an elevation event if it does occur--about 1500ft for accumulating snow. South Mtn range is my best guess at this time to see the best chance of accumulating snow in our area. The big takeaway IMHO- it will finally feel like winter again, with highs in the mid to upper 30's and the heat will finally have come on. The GEM sees something on the noon run but the snow hits at the very tail end of the storm. The GFS will be bouncing all over the place the next 5-7 days typical with the govt shutdown for additional air soundings in the Pac west

What’s the real return rate on an intense derecho across SNE over the past 50 years though? Same with hurricane hits.

This is just one place that flooded from extreme rains coming off the nearby ridges, the well inland Mandeville to the E of Santa Cruz (which also flooded) and 20 miles E of the worst devastation from surge and winds:

You poor bastard. I’m so sorry.

The most

I know that with cc it's expected that winters will keep getting milder with less snow but it's surprising to me how we also get less tropical and severe than we used to. With a warming climate I would've thought that the opposite would be the case. We rarely get those intense summer time derechos like we used to get in the 90s and same with hurricanes. I wonder what happened? It's like SNE has become a slightly more continental version of Seattle with very little interesting weather year round.

Ummm……good luck?

Thankfully Melissa had tighter-wound bands that I expected, so the massive rain amounts were more limited than I expected.

Prediction: The purple team wins.

Guess it’s time to shut off the outside hose bibs, put the garden hoses away and 86 the remaining summer plants. I can dig out the snow shovels too if anyone wants me to totally jinx winter…let me know.

63 here too. We got the gardens cleaned for the winter with pulling the last weeds. Got sweaty even.

It was supposed to clear off this afternoon and warm into the upper 50s. It's raining harder than ever and we only warmed to 45 today.
