  1. Cranky folks tonight. I'm off to bed. Hopefully the morning light will bring peace and good-will among men. Lol.
  2. Last year I did slightly better than BDL. The blizzard gave me a couple inches more being east of the river and I think I had about 6 inches more for the season but that was a big time longitude situation. The drive east on state route 190 was a bigtime gradient,probably like 70-75 inches in Enfield. 75-88 in Somers, 88-103 in Stafford in like a 20 mile drive east.
  3. I'm convinced my town is just about the worst in all of CT for the shadow / dry air channeling down the valley effects. I've seen the HFD area do slightly better than here in those situations. My latitude makes up for it so I probably still average about 3-4 inches more per year than HFD.
  4. I wonder if his brother lives in Lunenburg?
  5. Kevin benefits more from a marginal temp profile paste job up on his hill than true upslope. When I lived in Ellington at 400', Most big storms, 12+, he got maybe an inch or 2 more than I did, but he cashed in on a couple slushy coatings at my place where up on the hill was like 2-3.
  6. Snowtober still grabs my attention more than any of the recent blizzards. The shotguns and flashes all night and the destruction that was visible in the morning with that epic deform band of the ages over GC. Still don't think we will see anything like that again in our lifetimes.
  7. Was just up there last week. 1075 ASL is what the maps say. Beautiful view right on the edge of the valley. The escarpment is real sharp right there. . Its about 18 minutes from my house.
  8. Digging up old wounds. That ride from Enfield to Union on 190 had about a 20 inch snowfall difference.
  9. euro was correcting East for several runs in a row . Rgem shifts twice in a row more of us should have jumped
  10. Euro Ensembles and Op locked in the day of the event. This model suite just took a massive hit with this storm.
  11. The Rgem snow map west of ORH-Tolland is brutally low. This has honestly been my go-to model outside of the Euro in many events. When is the last time it was this far off the day of an event?
  12. Im totally stunned at the model variance. Nervous feeling in the pit of my stomach.
  13. sorry it's probably me that's melting down the most, I just need to take a step back and see how it unfolds
  14. honestly I wouldn't be shocked if it setup right on the valley floor, subsidence downsloping and shadowing FTL call me Debby downer but I've seen it too many times in this area
  15. not really,the euro is an all of southern New England special. 2 inches of QPF right to the New York border.
  16. the nam needs to hold ground and the other models need to tick slightly west or its going to turn into a central and eastern New England special.
  17. is anyone concerned that it still corrected somewhat northeast and that the trend may continue?not to be a Debbie Downer it looks like an absolutely beautiful run I just want to make sure it can hold.
  18. and I really hope you're right, RGEM and GFS do not look like they want to push west at all.
  19. it looks like there was another dual low pressure on the Gem at hour 24, without an nice clean and early enough capture ,Western New England could be toast.
  20. honest assessment Mets please, how concerned should we be from the Connecticut River Valley points west?
