  1. So true. As a kid of 8, the blizzard of 78 was the storm that focused my interest in weather.. then had to live through most of the 80s
  2. Just got back to the shop in Simsbury, 36.8° and sloppy gloppy snow mixing in the last 30 minutes. Going to take the long way home to Westfield through Granville hoping to see more changeover
  3. Thank you! Neversource is significantly understaffed even compared to cl&p days
  4. Would you look at that lol! Doesn't that kind of fit with what Tip and others were talking about yesterday that some banding and dynamics could be somewhat more west than shown on the clowns? Be interesting to watch for sure. So not ready for snow at work...too many generators on backorder
  5. Right, thats what I was thinking. Also P type informed by rate of precip. And as I type this, we've switched to snow
  6. Still all rain in Simsbury. Think I'm going for a drive up the hill to chase some flakes
  7. Different world in Simsbury vs Westfield right now. 37 here with barely a mangled flake compared to a few miles north. It was snowing quite well in Granville
  8. Snow just starting to mix in Westfield MA. 34° Going to take the longer way to work through Granville down to the shop in Simsbury
  9. That December '92 storm was one I'll never forget. I thought I was dreaming! We couldn't even get our Christmas tree from our normal source because it closed down the tree farm in Riverton CT because of the depth and significant drifting.
  10. We had that issue about a week and a half ago. We had just planted a couple of mimosa trees and had a slight frost down here in Westfield. They seem to be holding on with just a couple of burnt tips.
  11. 38.7 in Westfield at 6am this morning. No frost on the windshield on my way into the lonely office!
  12. Chips ahoy in one hand...hand lotion in the other. Not even looking at the open tab with the radar
  13. Snow picking up now in Simsbury. We went from almost nothing, to nearly moderate within 15 minutes. Ground is white but nothing sticking to the pavement yet 32°
  14. Flakes in the air in Simsbury at the shop. 29° Almost a Currier and Ives look now...
  15. I was joking. We're a company of four. If we have to close or run out of work we're effed after a fairly short time
  16. Nice! BTW..what is "paid" leave? Going to be an interesting few weeks for my business
  17. I was thinking the same thing. Zonal as shown should keep the April Fenway Park weather at bay for most of sne
  18. Sorry. I was just responding to others in this thread...I don't really even want to talk about it haha. And I just realized, it is a banter thread..
  19. Yes exactly, hence the "nearly" And I don't mean to say it's nothing but with doctors I work for that I have spoken with the 3 of them believe there is an excessive amount of hype.
  20. Yes and in my opinion, this is being hyped to death. No one seems to care, or want to hear/educate themselves that the flu mortality is nearly the same.
  21. Me too. Plus I don't care if it's trump Obama or choose whomever you like... The president isn't the one that should be guiding us on issues like this anyway. So sick of how a virus gets politicized, like somehow it's the current president's fault
  22. Yes. We are required to get one also. School district we perform maintenance for requires it. I think it's a great idea
  23. No, not any more than anyone else. When something like this wants to spread, theres not a lot we can do til if and when theres a vaccine. The other funny thing is two doctors I work for have said that several patients who absolutely refuse to get flu shots have been beating down their doors asking when a covid vaccine will be available. Some people will always just be stupid idiots and let hype run their lives
