Ok. What was I thinking. I should have realized how right you are.

No, it didn't. There was a small swath up in that area that did get a heavy amount of rain. But a 5 mi swath in the entire state of Connecticut does not make the northern part of Connecticut way above normal. BEER??

I beg to differ... We are not above normal for rainfall in northern CT ( maybe a localized area ). I looked up the departure from normal for Hartford, CT and there was a 2.17" deficit for the two months period of June and July. Bradley was very similar. So, you may need to look again.

Actually, the summer in Connecticut for the northern half of the state was just near normal, where the southern half of the state has been well below normal precipitation wise. So that's not a good correlation to why we're getting early color. Maybe it's just because it's been a more on the dry side?

Lol .. oh I've been on here a long long time. I'm just busting his chops. Sometimes Kev just throws shyte out that makes no sense.

You know, you gave me a big X on my comment about where did you see 3"-6". Am I missing something? Even if it's more CNE / NNE The highest I saw I was 3". Hey, maybe I'm missing something. Instead of giving the big X, help me understand what I'm missing

Umm... Not sure what you're looking at, but what I see doesn't show anything 3" to 6" in anywhere in the entire Northeast and Mid-Atlantic.

I'm not. I have a very big party for my father and mother-in-law for their 80th birthday next Saturday. I have about 40 to 50 people coming.

Overall, it's looking like we'll at least have a normal winter in general. Something we really haven't seen in several years. At least in Southern New England.

So... As we start to see all the " Hype factor " for this upcoming Winter.... A new one just popped up. It's the CFS model and it shows very cold air for December, January, and February for much of the Central and Eastern US. I'm just not sure if that is a reliable model or not ( at least compared to the other Global models ).

We're heading out to Cedar Point in Sandusky, OH with a few friends today. Looks like tomorrow will be in the mid sixties there. Perfect day to be going on all the roller coasters

What happened to Kev's Steiner?

We got a nice drink of water... Thank in you Jesus!!! Hopefully we see those storms tomorrow as well.

Man, I hope they're wrong. We really need some rain here in CT

Very interesting video. I liked they way he went through his reasoning. Now we wait...

Lol... Right. Normal high temp for today is 77. But yeah .. we're burning up!!!

What really gets me is all this hype information about La Nina winter coming. Like it's big headlines and it's going to be this strong La Nina. It seems to me that this La Nina pattern will be a very weak pattern and it won't even last all winter, but there's just so much out there on what they're saying. Honestly, the information is so misinformed on exactly what's going to happen that people just take what they read and go with it. Well in a week we'll be starting September and starting to get a better picture on where we're going. Starting to feel a bit of excitement.

1.68 here. Well needed rains for sure. But wow....it is chilly

Interesting read on another weather anomaly happening in the Indian ocean. https://www.severe-weather.eu/long-range-2/new-iod-event-developing-winter-pattern-forecast-united-states-canada-fa/

No, it's not. It's not the same at all. Although Bradley recorded whether the normal July, Bridgeport recorded drier than normal July. That was different from last year. No two years are exactly the same. Anyway. Still no clue what's going to happen this winter but after having multiple Winters below normal, it's bound to change

The good news is, with all this dry weather we've been having as of late, hoping it'll bode well for our winter. Not being so dry. Last spring and summer were wet and by the time we went into rent to return much drier. So let's hope for the other direction

This guy..... Lolol. He makes everything about 1,000 more intense than it ever is. He likes using words like " Massive " or " HUGE".

Having hope on something that could still have a chance is one thing, but it's like you're a mama gorilla holding onto her deceased baby who's not coming back. Let it go... While you have some dignity for the love of God!

I was just going to post about the same thing. Sad thing is, I follow him only because I laugh at all of his posts and I just didn't want to stop following him for that reason lol. It just amazes me the things he comes up with.... and he's so sure on what he predicts. His record for winter forecasts are even worse. What a goon ( I think one of you guys call him moregarbage.... Which is fitting and I laugh every time I see it )

Of course, you're getting those saying a weak La Nina is going to develop going into the Winter, but I suspect even if that happens, it won't really make much of difference ( like a typical La Nina ). Thanks for your blog/insight on what you are seeing for this upcoming Winter.
