  1. @SnowGoose69 I've seen some major ones have gradients sort of like that, that were big storms, I just mentioned Mar 4-6 2001. NYC/NNJ got 3-6 while most of CT got 12-20. Yc
  2. GDPS looks a little S & E of 00z, not by much, but a bit cooler. A little less zonked out, which is no surprised, 00Z was insane. Still a good hit of snow for the majority of SNE.
  3. I'd love to see a Mar 4-6 repeat, havent seen a 52 hour Winter Storm since. This looks to be quite long with some breaks in the action. Definitely not as big of a storm as that one but may have the duration.
  4. Are you living vicariously as a SNE'r through this sub-forum
  5. How the models are handling this storm.
  6. How'd that EE rule work out for 1-26-15? NAM is Cha cha chilly in clown range.
  7. eps shift SE/colder 6z vs 0z. About 12hrs slower too
  8. woosh. Happy Thanksgiving to all, i have no snow to look at and a 102.5 fever, yay.
  9. 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"
  10. 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.
  11. 50s is pretty normal for early December in SNE/Tri-State. The Avg high for the first week of December is 46-47F for BDR and probably only a couple degrees colder for BDL.
  12. can we retire "torch" i loathe that word. yes i'm triggered
  13. So...NW CT, where 6 people & 1,000 deer live did see up to 2" of snow.
  14. People think im weird because i like it when it gets dark at like 430 and the night lasts forever and i get sad/depressed when its light until 9pm. I think i have reverse S.A.D.
  15. The extreme NW edge of CT where 6 people and 1,000 deer live might see 2", sweet.
  16. Beautiful site on top Stratton today.
  17. Sat is cooked, just no cold air to work with and tracks are still all over the place. Sections well inland in the hills may get some snow if everything works out perfectly and you can thread the needle just right.
  18. It must have been so painful to be in Litchfield cty for that storm, esp since they were under a Winter Storm Warning early in the day and didnt even see a flake. So you ended up with 2.2"
  19. That storm was a bust for most of the state. Calls of 16-24, 15-25, 12-18 from the 3 local news stations, nws going 18-24. For some it verfied on the low end of those numbers, for others it was a complete bust. Here we only got 9.9 with a few hours of snow mixed with and changed to sleet at around 10am then it was done.
  20. There was a very sharp cut off in CT but you didnt have to be that close to the shore to get 12+. I got 14.4 and im about 15 mi from the shore, 15mi northwest of me in Watertown only got 4.
  21. The Euro was hand written by a team of meteorologists at the Weather Bureau, hundreds of them crunching numbers and equations. Then hand delivered in a small notebook crossing town by town by horse and buggy, or donkey. When we finally received the output, and read the notes, the storm had already been over...for weeks.
