  1. That map looks like it's somewhere near Prospect or Wolcott which are both up around 900 ft+
  2. I'm feeling a bit better back this way and I was earlier. Hopefully the precip shield will continue to blossom and fill in on the western side of the system a bit more on the models . When you see the placement of the SLP you would think that would be the case. Earlier phasing would definitely help accomplish that as well.
  3. Yeah there's not a lot of wiggle room in Connecticut. There is some consensus on accumulations in the northeast corner , for the rest of us we need a really dynamic and early enough phase to get that CCB cranking before the system hauls out of here.
  4. We need the east ticks to stop in the 91 corridor, as it is relying on dynamics to flip with a progressive system on a valley floor under 200' ASL west of the ORH Hills/NE CT Hills makes me pause for anything more than mood flakes to very light accumulations locally. Hopefully I'm wrong.
  5. Other than the gully washers round 2 was pretty meh with the convection and strong winds here. Best wind was with round 1.
  6. Moderate rain and 42. High temp forecast is 58 but I wouldn't be shocked if we're wedged in most of the day in the low to mid-40s here in the valley.
  7. Warmer air is already moving in aloft it looks like the low of 18 was around 2:00 a.m.here on a nearby PWS
  8. A few good gusts probably 50-55 range. Power flickered a few time but stayed on.
  9. Lights flickered a few times when that came through
  10. Got to be about 2"here. Just a soaking of a day.
  11. About what I expected, best rain west and best wind east. Looks like the closest PWS a couple of streets over from me is reporting about .95
  12. About .8 in the rain department. Nice to see but it was a bit of an underperformer.
  13. Keeping expectations low to perhaps moderate based on everything I've see thus far. Hopefully I'm pleasantly surprised or we get lucky with mesoscale features or favorable nuances in the midst of a hostile pattern.
  14. You're good. I think we may be out of the game up here north of BDL. 62/58 cloudy skies here.
  15. IJD a snow hole but let's not be overdramatic. It's still inland and a couple hundred feet elevation. Like Will said, probably the low 40's but not a great spot for overall cover and retention but not as bad as living on the south coast. I also live in a snow hole averaging around 48-50" but at least I do better with CAD/ and snow retention in the CT river valley further northwest. I'm sure Willimantic cleaned up pretty well in some of those winters favoring Eastern New England where the banding in the bigger storms was pivoting back through Eastern Connecticut while my location was sniffing exhaust.
  16. 43 and light rain as winter returns for one last dance.
