The 4 Seasons

12-20-2009

The Blizzard of 2009. 10 years ago today.

old wounds, new map.

Another 0.3 puts me at 6.5 on the season

snowfall totals and ice totals from 12/17 Dec 18th Snow Squall Event

a whopping 0.3" of snow last night puts me to 6.2 on the season got more ice than snow..0.38 ice another spotter in North Haven measured 0.5" on a flat surface, i used the small tree branch method.

WTF is that, jesus.

I never really thought of that with sky scrapers the towers must had quite a bit more snow up there at 1400ft

Had zr but it’s so close to freezing that All the roads were just wet

+2.5" last storm, 5.9 on the season. Prob close to the bottom of the list but hey still doin good for my personal climo, can't complain.

Damn thats a lot of snow, we lost coverage on day 1! Some small piles left at the Stop & Shop. I took my sled to the very top of the 5 foot brown pile and sledded up and down for hours. People kept staring at me and i couldn't figure out why.

Going back in the archives and producing maps for past events that i haven't done. Any requests for any CT storms and i'll take a look...if there is enough data ill do it!

Inland Monster :::UPDATE:::

could be worse, could be @dendrite dead last with less than an inch...if thats real.

+3.4 I would like to be a part of this... (per the website) Need a login/pw set up

resurrect it and we can merge or close this one if you want

Mar 3-4 storm vs. FX

March 2nd 2019

I am going to attach the maps for the past winter storms from last season, 18-19. I never got around to doing Mar 2nd and Mar 3rd-4th winter storms in CT but i will get them done and upload soon. I am working on new style maps for this coming 19-20 winter season with new color coding for snowfall amounts. Ranges (this is mostly for me to look back on) Snow: White: Nothing or next to nothing i.e. C-1" Light Blue: Light accumulations, sub advisory i.e. 1-3" Blue: Moderate accumulations, adivsory level, i.e. 3-6" Yellow: Heavy accumulations, warning level, i.e. 6-10" Red: Significantly heavy accumulations greater than yellow, double digit snowfall, warning level, i.e. 10-15" Purple: Very heavy accumulations greater than red, major or near record breaking, warning level, i.e. 18-24" Dark Purple: Extremely heavy accumulations greater than purple, historic and record breaking, i.e. 24-36" Lime Green: Crippling accumulations greater than dark purple, all-time and histoirc levels, i.e. 36-60" Ice: White: Nothing or next to nothing i.e. 0 Light Pink: Measurable, adivsory level, i.e. 0.10-0.20" Purple: Significant greater than light pink, advisory level, i.e. 0.20-0.40" Dark Purple: Major icing greater than purple, warning level, i.e. 0.40-0.70" Lime Green: Crippling ice, major damage, more than dark purple, warning level, i.e. .70-1.00" Dark Green: Historic, all-time and record breaking, more than lime green i.e. 1.00-2.00"

I noticed a lot of discussion threads get cluttered with comments, links and photos of past winter storms (myself included). So, i wanted to create a universal thread for all discussion of past winter storms in New England. Here you can share memories, thoughts, photos, links, whatever you want for any winter storm. This is the place to weenie out and relieve the stress from those ratters or dull periods. So to start i wanted to post some links for past winter storms in the Northeast. 1. Ray's Winter Storm Archive (1993-2013) Excellent place to find a lot of data of snow storms in New England/Tri-State http://www.raymondcmartinjr.com/weather/2011/Weather.html 2. NWS issuing product by CWA. Here you can find PNS, WSW, ZFP products for our local FOs from 1993-Present https://mesonet.agron.iastate.edu/wx/afos/list.phtml 3. NERFC Daily Snowfall, Snow Depth & Forecast Snowfall https://www.weather.gov/nerfc/snow If anyone has similar type archive links, please please share them. Also post photos, maps, etc from past winter storms.

I don't remember a single snow event in CT in Dec 2006, let alone something historic like 27". This sounds like Feb 11/12 2006, especially with that 'death band pivoting over NYC and W CT. Or was it another part of the northeast or country? From what i remember 06-07 was a complete dud. We didn't see any real snow until late Feb/early Mar.

I went to a driving range once...can i play in this thread?
