CT Valley Snowman

Dry here as well. We wait.

Give me dews , heat, pools, beaches, and bangers with occasional COC interspersed for hiking and refreshing reprieves to air out the house. I'd prefer about 70/30 warmth and dews to COC.

Hi of 83 with dews in the low and mid 60s. Nothing overly impressive.

Yes but we were locked in because we have a S flow which also promotes the big heat further north. Atlantic ridge placement is better for NNE. Can't win em all.

NNE FTW as it continues to beat even Death Valley near BDL, BAF, CEF in the temp department. 83 for the high here.

You'll won't get much above 80. Even here is only low 80s on most guidance. Dews 65-70 will feel nice.

Would have been pissed if this was winter watching this band rot just to the south of here but not complaining at all here on the Memorial Day weekend. Nothing more than a light shower here earlier this morning. We take.

70.7 here. Mostly Cloudy and a stiff breeze.

Fell apart here

I'm not holding my breath. Best chance would be far west but we'll see.

Tor watch Northern CT.

Damage in Saratoga as well.

Pic out of Saratoga Springs about 25 minutes ago.

Low of 30.4

Just got pounded with pea size hail, wind, and a couple of close ctg lightning. Hail covering the ground.

low of 30.9 around 3 AM. Now 38.6 with the clouds and wind. .

43 and light rain. Started an obs thread

43 and light rain as winter returns for one last dance.

33 here. Chilly start for sure.

Snowy evening in Cooperstown NY area.

Increase in latitude and elevation won't hurt. You would still suffer from a downslope off the Worcester Hills which can get more pronounced the further north in the valley you go, especially in bigger storms with the big easterly fetch. Maybe Belchertown is good for maybe 6-9" additional snow per year than Enfield depending on elevation I would think.

Man that sucks. I've considered this year pretty bad at 30-32" here in Enfield but like 20 miles south of me in the same valley with just over half the snowfall is ridiculous. Garbage year for sure.

Snowmaps and Advisories/Warnings do seem pretty conservative fom GYX which is understandable given time of year and elevation closer to the coast etc , however, like you and others have mentioned ,once the dynamics take over there could be a pretty significant paste job. Perhaps the warnings and advisories can expand southward in some areas. AUG doesn't even have an advisory . I would think north and west of there in Kennebec county , places like Livermore or Vienna could get smoked even harder and don't even have an advisory.

1. Rocktober snowbomb: 13.5 inches of destructive cement on leafed trees, massive tree damage/ power outages. 2. June 2011 tornado : Passed just north, impacted family and friends. Saw the aftermath firsthand. 3. Blizzard Nemo: 2 feet, crazy wind and drifts, epic death band was worse just to my south. 4. July 2015 Maine microburst. Damaging microburst sent us home early from our vacation at the family cabin in Mount Vernon Maine. 5. Feb 5 2001 snowstorm: forecasted 6-10 inches on the day of storm, got 2 feet in 12 hours. Honorable Mention: Jan 11 blizzard, Hurricane Gloria.

Man the storm sucked here but 2.9 is ridiculous. You need to check the time stamp on that. 4 is the absolute minimum I could see posted here and 5 is more realistic. BDL came in at 7 and there was better banding west of the river but I would toss the 2.9
