Snowcrazed71

Man.. I couldn't agree more with you. The problem is some of the people who post are way over zealous and it leads to unrealistic dreams. I too knew that the chances of something Wintry was a big stretch. What people fail to realize is it is still early ( to early ) in the game for the majority of SNE to get a big Snowstorm. My mindset typically becomes more engaged and getting bigger snows when we head into second to third week of December and on. The other issue is the models and the discrepancies between the American model and the European model. There are always changes, but sometimes you get agreement that sticks within a week or so of an event. Again, there are people who just live by a model run. Anyway, I agree with you are post and hope others will read it and pull back a little. But that's a stretch lol

Its like the movie Groundhog day with some of these comments. Can't wait for that one storm that gets all their minds off the doom and gloom lol. I find every moment to be fascinating even when it's boring. This is weather, this is what it's like. Hasn't really even begun yet and some people are already calling for it to be over. It's comical

You are right. I do remember when we get those storms that almost seem gone, and then all of a sudden they're back. Later December through February. I love when that happens though. Everybody gets on the train and the excitement level is through the roof. It's a great feeling. May not happen this time, but I know it'll happen at least once this winter.

No disrespect people. I'm not sure why any of you are making any kind of forecasts lol. Yes we have an idea what could happen in the setups that are coming up. But like every other year, we have changes that happen within a week. Why the hell are any of you saying we're going to get something next week or not? You all know that we've had storms appear out of almost nowhere within three or four days of the actual event. And same is true with storms that have been on the maps for one to two weeks that don't come to fruition. The point is, no one is correct on here. No one's to blame on here. Let's just enjoy the weather and see what happens. I'm actually laughing over here reading some of these comments . People really do live and die off of a model run. Still.... Love you all though, that's why I come back every day in the winter. I'm as big a weather geek as anyone else on here.

It's funny how my local met completely changed the forecast 3 times in 3 days for next weekend. I wouldn't be surprised if it changes again. That's what happens when we rely heavily on the models ( or a particular model ).

Lol.. and it starts again. I banging it all on something happening next weekend. Climatologically, it takes a lot to have us get a really good storm at the end of November ( when it comes to snow in southern New England ). It does happen and we've had them, but I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't. We all know it's a numbers game game and there's going to be a lot of model runs that will show storms. And as we all know, maybe 25% of them come to fruition... if that.

Patience my friend, it's coming back up your way. I'm looking at the band over the lakes and it's starting to pulsate back north and they said it will definitely go back north this evening and tonight. You'll get a lot more. I'm so jealous lol I jokingly said to my 9-year-old, let's take a road trip. She was like. Like yeah let's go. Love this girl

Titan against Titan . Hehehehehe! ( Some of you should get this )

I think some of you were already saying that a lakes cutter didn't seem as logical due to the ridge out west along with some other model guidances. So, I don't find this to be a surprise. I am not on board yet that we are going to see a major snow or sleet event, but I will say that both Bob Maxon ( WVIT ) and Gil Simmons ( WTNH ) are putting out there the possibility of " Something interesting " next Friday/Saturday. They even lowered the highs those days to low to mid 40's. Time will tell!!

So who did better for the storm we have the last night and today? GFS or the ECM?

For all of southern new England?

And we still had several takers that held the NAM in front. It was a good outcome though on our favor

Temp has now fallen even more to 33.1.. that dropped 1 full degree in 15 minutes, and 5 full degrees in the last hour. Crazy

Temp has now fallen to 34.. snowing pretty darn hard.

When is this for? This Saturday night?

Same here. 36.8 next town over on the hill at around 550 ft.

It's probably about 8 hours to get to Richmond

So.. it was 24.3 here.. now it is 26.3

I told him the same thing.

I have my sources. Lol Seriously though.. I googled it.

31.2 here... Chilly already.

So West simsbury gets the most average snow per Winter... Than Simsbury center.. then Tolland is lower down on the scale.

No, but that would be one hell of a base though!

Ya gotta give George credit for going out on a limb though...lol He'll get his win and his moment of glory!!! I'm rooting for ya George

I guess you haven't taken many trips to Simsbury. Maybe the southwestern side of simsbury is in the valley but a lot of simsbury is in the hills and higher up. They do get a fair amount of snow. Maybe you need.. "More Beer " lol
