  1. True. It's very rare to get a 1995/96 style winter around here, or really anything close. That was my favorite winter so far in SNE since I've been following in the late 70s. Others have been close, but 95/96 we had snow OTG much of the time from November through late march. Never usually happens contrary to what many chirp on this forum
  2. GFS says maybe head out to Truro for a storm chase on the 7th? Just near the tip? Wait for it, cue the "big storms come northwest" crowd
  3. 2.5 on Sunday, brings my total to 25.5
  4. Same down this way, roads are slick
  5. Flakes coating surfaces here this A.M. roads are slick. 28 degrees
  6. He does prefer the warmer weather, but has slowly morphed into following this time of year. Chasing tornadoes is how he ended up in the middle of the damn Springfield tornado, stuck on RT91 of all places right when it came over the Memorial bridge
  7. I'm lucky my Hubby is as into the weather as I am... We'd both weenie out to that!
  8. Where are you located? Plenty of frost in this area! I have an open electrical trench on a job site because everything is frozen solid. Maybe I should let some of you know where it is... save you money on toasters
  9. Same here. It hasn't been a lot, but there's been enough white ground to satisfy in this area
  10. Hate to tell you this, but that will happen January 10th if you have all sun... even if it's 10 degrees. Just doesn't happen quite as fast
  11. Snowflakes need their snowflake fix. They've gone from weenie to downright delusional
  12. The Bug is already prepped for its first drive of the spring, and the '77 bus resto is well underway. It's healthy to have other hobbies to take your mind off crap patterns
  13. Why do some of you guys think we get prolific snow in December in SNE on average??? Why? It is NOT normal, especially where you are located. Some of THE best winters we've had over the past 40 plus years had very little if any until new years +- a few days. If the winter sucks for your area it generally has nothing to do with December. I try not to weenie people, but my God sometimes its deserved!
  14. It failed for some, sure. But it doesn't mean those other months HAVE to make up for them. It's not the way winter is usually work here. Plus it's been my experience getting snow too early in the season is a bad Omen for the rest of the year with the exception of years like say 95/96, and iirc 92/93
  15. And I've said it over and over... more often than not for most of SNE we don't usually get much in December. If we do it's usually the last week or so. If we didn't have this c*ck blocked decent pattern this year it would likely be a different story
  16. 2 inches total in Westfield. We've had light rain much of the overnight, so nothing has added. Didn't expect that
  17. Looks like we're going to end up with 2 inches. What's showing on radar doesn't seem to be translating to the ground. Precip shield looks like it will rotate out of this area soon
  18. Moderate to heavy snow in Westfield the last half hour. Ground is whitening quickly. I'm surprised it's actually accumulating on the driveway just as fast
  19. Huge flakes here in Westfield now. Friend of mine down in Granby Connecticut says they are now all snow and it's just starting to accumulate on some surfaces
  20. Moderate sleet and rain here now with some mangled flakes mixed in. Temperature down another degree. Question is how far does the warm tongue penetrate, or will this change over to all frozen?
  21. Yeah if it's at best a mix here it's going to take a lot of work everywhere else. Next couple hours will be telling once it gets going some more
