  1. It completely depends on size and brand. Most units I've ordered have come in within six weeks. I do have one that has been on order for two months and still waiting, however its supposed to be in soon. Probably once we actually have snow on the ground
  2. Well...Neversource has warned us that this may happen. Fine with me, it keeps calls coming in for generator installs!
  3. LOL...well, I have two beetles both 1975s a 77 camper and an 83 Vanagon Diesel. I restored that green one in my garage including paint. Its gone to shows 300 miles from home no problem!
  4. If that part of the glacier is already floating on the water, isn't there already displacement from it regardless of whether it's attached to anything?
  5. I still can't figure out how to post pictures. The file is always too large
  6. Yeah that Euro looks like a Pacific flood
  7. Euro USED to look interesting at 90.... now even 72 hours is a stretch
  8. A few mangled flakes last night were all we got. It sounds like just up the street had a couple inches
  9. During this time of lack of storms to track, I really need to try and find our blizzard of '78 pictures! The storm that cemented my interest in weather as an 8 year old
  10. That's cool...especially because it was this same event as an 8 year old in Granby CT that cemented my interest in weather. (Also the Windsor Locks tornado a year later). We already had an awesome pack in '78. I remember we had gone to the bus stop Monday morning and the bus was late. A friends mom came by and told us school was cancelled. We didn't really understand because it was only flurrying but found out why soon enough! Late morning my dad came home from work and we all had to help my neighbor get his truck unstuck, it was blocking our driveway. We ended up being out of school til the following Monday. To this day I swear that the official measurements for this storm are way on the low side. I was only a kid, however both my dad and grandfather said they measured about 28 inches in both Granby and Simsbury...and my Grandfather was NOT someone who would not exaggerate. I would love to see something like this again! By far the closest we've come in this area was the 2013 blizzard. More snow, but less drifting here. If it hadn't happened on a weekend I believe the impact would have been different. It took me two long days to completely snowplow my route, and at the time I only had like 15 driveways.
  11. Seems like the only constant in the variability of weather...
  12. When was December a winter month in West Hartford??? A few years the last decade? It's not normal to have snow in your area in December... not even northwest CT has that usually, at least nothing that lasts. Now, if we get a week or so into January and nothings happening well then we may have a problem
  13. A dusting in 27.325 percent of the yard... does that count as snow cover lol
  14. I love Tips 50,000 word descriptions, but prefer the 25,000 version
  15. Surprised to have 1.5 at my shop in Simsbury. This area is usually a local snow hole compared to Granby, Canton etc.
  16. Looks like some of the plow crews are on holiday break, not lots of plowing/treatment done here yet. Nice actually, I love driving to work on unplowed roads
  17. Hit a really decent band through Southwick / Granby. Unusual that there's more in Simsbury than Westfield. 1.5 inches at the shop
