  1. My newest vehicle is a 1983 VW Vanagon and oldest a pair of 1975 VW Bugs so... On that note, I love when people who ride motorcycles tell you that your car is unsafe lol
  2. I'll chuck that far away. They never end up as shown that far out
  3. I think the only winter I can think of that may have saved that was either '87 or '88. Growing up in Granby, CT it's the one winter that saved it being 8 years in a row of suck. The next few were terrible until '92. Even that '88 or whatever I think was barely average, if not below. It just seemed great because of prior years.
  4. 6Z GFS looks great for the 30th. How many days out is it??
  5. Radar has filled back in up this way. It had stopped here, but now we have steady light snow
  6. It switched to snow here in simsbury a half hour ago...and its already stopped
  7. It was rain in Westfield, now it's snow in Simsbury. Not really even expecting a dusting here, 33 degrees. Looks like there won't be any refresh of the 3 inch pack lol
  8. Taking the long way to work driving through Granville on my way to Simsbury. It's snowing pretty good up here and 32°. At least I get to see some flakes today
  9. 34 and rain in Westfield. It will probably change over just as precip is moving out
  10. That's the problem...there are TONS of terrible drivers around. And I will diasgree to a point, some of these new vehicles are supplied with tires that have no business out in a winter storm no matter how good a driver you are.
  11. I'll tell you, I've seen this before. Up here I'll be really surprised to see any more than an inch...if that. Unless we see a push north I'm not expecting much.
  12. We used to do better with two wheel drive and snow tires. I see tons of expensive all wheel drive cars stuck because they can't be bothered to buy true winter tires. Someone tells them they have all season tires and think they're good. All seasons for the most part are a joke in true winter weather
  13. Never gone...careful! It's addictive! And modern sleds with the motorcycle riding position are SO comfortable compared to years ago. I gave up riding four years ago because of a new house, marriage etc and can't wait to own sleds again...someday
  14. 1975 VW Bug sedan and 75 convertible, 1977 Westfalia camper and 1983 Vanagon here
  15. Did someone say vintage cars! I have a few...helps when the weather won't cooperate. Something else to obsess about lol
  16. LOL the NAM can't even extrapolate itself close to the end of its range. Seeing the Euro more than double down from 12z has definitely caused me to keep one eye on this for now
  17. Oh come on! It got a clue about 4 hours til go time yesterday...thats got to count for something
  18. 4 inches in Westfield right at the changeover, looks like there was about the same in Simsbury before the sleet and rain. Feels tropical now, up to 35 degrees
  19. I used to have a 25 driveway route. It really sucked plowing with the flu, or even a cold! Feel better soon!
  20. 19 here at home. Temp is actually down two degrees in the last hour. Looks like radar returns are right on the doorstep.
