  1. 34 and rain in Westfield. It will probably change over just as precip is moving out
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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
  5. 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
  6. 1975 VW Bug sedan and 75 convertible, 1977 Westfalia camper and 1983 Vanagon here
  7. Did someone say vintage cars! I have a few...helps when the weather won't cooperate. Something else to obsess about lol
  8. 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
  9. Oh come on! It got a clue about 4 hours til go time yesterday...thats got to count for something
  10. 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
  11. I used to have a 25 driveway route. It really sucked plowing with the flu, or even a cold! Feel better soon!
  12. 19 here at home. Temp is actually down two degrees in the last hour. Looks like radar returns are right on the doorstep.
  13. I realize that, however in the past it usually has had the opposite effect. Not this year haha
  14. I keep looking at it and thinking the exact same thing. I hate to even say this but even taking a peek at the water vapor Loop just bolsters that feeling. You'd swear that push coming over the Great Lakes would have some influence...
  15. True. I think the average person seems to remember wall to wall snows of yore, and the weather enthusiast will remember the rafters. I started following the weather in 1978 so pretty much seen it all!
  16. Definitely. Cold..storm comes and cuts, then cold returns. Except what was it 1990? We were wearing T Shirts while rough wiring a house in February. No cold and I think BDL had 16 inches the whole season
  17. More like the 80s winters are back. This is just like a lot of that garbage that I saw back then. I think a lot of the youngsters here just aren't old enough to remember...or were even born
  18. Go back a few posts....Remember some of that is certainly sleet as depicted
  19. 6Z GFS looks pretty much the same. Looks worlds different to me for western areas vs the Euro. It's going to be interesting to see who's more correct
  20. True. However they are still on the service side of the equation, and what they've done to that company is unbelievable...although the American way it seems. They are so incredibly top heavy with very few service and repair employees left.
