Snowcrazed71

This place should be renamed chaos

I think he's bent over and waiting for it! ;-)

I do think that if we can get our temperatures cold enough tonight, and we get a nice burst of precipitation tomorrow, we can even see the rain go over to snow at least in the northern half of the state, even below the higher elevations. It'll be kind of cool to see what happens. Happens. Sometimes. It's just cool seeing rain turned to snow even if it doesn't accumulate that much. Gives us some hope when we see the actual snow coming down lol

I truly feel the same way. I know some of the models are just showing a torch through the rest of January, But there are also indications of some changes in the stratosphere. Things have been so erratic this season with some drastic changes to the models weekly, so I wouldn't be surprised in the least to see it go back to a pattern that could be favorable for some cooler temps and more snow chances. Time will tell, but I think we'll still all be here to see what happens

Well .. maybe this offers be a glimpse of how in this depressing Winter outlook. It's something. All I can offer. It is a very good read I have to say.

Well.. we could start seeing landslides and earthquakes.. lol

Might we see a few inches in the northern half of Connecticut?

Same here. I'm up at 500' in Plainville behind Big Y. It would be nice to see something.

Friday is always been iffy for Connecticut. Then again, most of these systems have been iffy for Connecticut lol. I think for the foreseeable future the only one that looks really decent right now is next weekend. Might we have a chance this Sunday night to see a little something.... maybe. But, the chance is about as high as what we might have seen this Friday.... Which is not a lot. We'll get through this

But yet... Here we all are. Lol

It only sucks as this winter has been lackluster thus far. Also.. many areas around the Northeast and mid Atlantic are not supposed to be blockbuster areas for snow. We are not the Rockies or Sierra's. ( Trust me... I would LOVE it if we had that kind of Snow. ). We get our big Snows typically from our large Nor'easters or clippers. That's just the way it is unfortunately. Our time will come.

And that is true. However, we are supposed to get into the 60 to 62° range and areas of Connecticut today. But yes, was supposed to be in the 50s for a lot of the week. That didn't happen and it's not happening. We just need a colder pattern to set up, and I'm just not seeing that anytime soon. Into February for something. But we all know that things can change on a dime. So I'm optimistic still

Actually, I am too. I had an epiphany this morning. I am 100% okay if this winter just turns out to be snowless winter. Yes the climate is changing, but no, I don't believe that we will never get a good winter again. I know It will happen. And when it does, we'll appreciate it even more

The one thing that I do feel is with all this major above normal temperature across North America as a whole, it has to have a rubber band effect. Maybe we'll see the snapback as we head into February. Or, we'll just get one of those huge storm events bringing us a major winter storm. I just have a real feeling about it this year. Only time will tell

It has been quite some time since we've seen one of those clippers dive out of Manitoba and redevelop off the coast of Virginia and roar up the coast at a snails pace. We're overdue. We are overdue. Just not sure that this weather pattern la Nina is conducive for Clippers. Might have to wait till next year for a really good chance at a clipper system ( but there's always a chance ).

Well... This is not good news ( I believe ). It's funny, but I know that guy , Mark something was touting a Stratospheric event happening as we speak? That guy must be off is rocker. Lol

If they don't choose to go into the panic room to whine? Then what?

Well, all I can say is I hope you are wrong. :-)

You know that's what I've been saying all along. I've said it in a very easy and simple way originally, but I just had people give me the weenie symbol or make a comment about my post. It is embarrassing. I'm 51, have a very good job. Love, daughter. We just adopted. Life is good. But when I come on here, it's always chaos, people putting people down. Even with my comments, when I try to cool things down, I get put down. I come on here because I want to discuss the weather. I want to discuss what things might be coming. If it doesn't snow it doesn't snow. It's just the way it is. But there's so many people in here that just attack and put down others for what they have to say. It's actually a joke. The thought has crossed my mind to just stop coming on here. But I keep coming because I'm hoping that people can just discuss the weather. Even if it's something small, sometimes that leads to something larger. Or something that surprises us. That's what made me fall in love with the whether when I was a kid. Even in today's modern technology, there are surprises and things we can't predict. Hope this gets through to done off you and we get a real forum going.

Lol .. you LOVE your ice storms. Don't think that's happening though. I'd rather it be a long duration of sleet and snow!

A bunch of dysfunctional b****** on here. But I still can't seem to leave lol. One snow event will bring us all back.

I know. This Particular post from him was not.. But in general he is an instigator. I'll just let it go.

Hey guys, I just want to point out our number One instigator. Since we're going to throw digs at everyone and this is the type of form we're on, let's hear how you all feel about this guy. :-)

Wow.. this forum is dysfunctional. All we see is attacks on everyone thoughts of what we could see. It's all negative. Not a setting that makes for a good forum or a decent discussion. Also.. I though we had a separate thread for Winter Banter? It all seems to be in the January discussion ( or any strom thread we create ). Lastly, why in the hell do we allow the few members that post just to antagonize to be able to post at all? Isn't their a moderator that can block that? Trust me.. many of you guys and gals on here are great. We all get frustrated that the Winter has been pretty sad as of late. But... Don't you guys get tired of the banter and also the negative posts that we are seeing. Let's just see what happens with the upcoming few months. It is far from over. Even if we have a 2-3 week period like we had last year towards February, isn't that worth something?

Let's try a different approach. Let's look at a few of our big blizzards we've had over the last 10 years and what weather pattern was showing to the upcoming event. Did we have an epic pattern showing up before we had the big snow storms, or was it just meh? Let's look at the two big snow storms. The one in 2013 which I believe was Juno, and the one in 2015.
