  1. You'd never guess that...I would think the cities are still king with that group...CT has no real big draw when it comes to cities...Boston/NYC much more desireable. Fairfield Cty over all has done ok-you're on the rail line to NYC and there's money here...rest of state is losing population....
  2. pensions are taxed here along with just about everything else. Expensive to live and expensive to retire here. A new 1% (bringing total to 7.35%) restaurant tax takes effect next week, every year it's worse and worse as they kick the can forward on debt service to pensions etc etc. Great place to live and raise kids but not sure how the next generation will afford it.
  3. not sure about the board, but alot of people around here are leaving-even younger folks-taxes/cost of living in CT at a tipping point.
  4. Nice to see the -NAO coming back-perhaps a good sign for some winter blocking
  5. maybe we fell just short then, but I remember a 2-3 day inferno right around Columbus Day or something like that...seems like 89 might have been it?
  6. Agree with what you're saying, op models beyond 5-6 days are not great, but in this case the ensembles support a run of warm/hot and dry weather for the next 10-15 days
  7. can't remember the year, maybe 2007 we had 2 or 3 days of low 90's in early October...it can happen...
  8. was wet here through late august, but it's been bone dry since they-maybe .50 or so and most of that in light showers that didn't really soak in
  9. one thing that's consistent on the models-not much rain over the next week or so...
  10. until the +AMO goes away, warm falls are the norm....
  11. it's awsome-it's just boring from a weather enthusiast's point of view. No Cat 5 headed for NYC or even rain showers.....
  12. also little to no rain-pattern appears to have flipped after a long period of wet months...
  13. Sonic in in CT now-Milford and Wallingford, Chickfilet is also here, Norwalk and Wallingford...it's coming.
  14. it's ridiculous-we hear xmas music on the radio/XM now in early November-it's no wonder why I'm ready to take it all down 12/26-sick of it all by then since it's a 2 month thing now...
  15. Low humidity really drying things out fast...grass burning here for the first time this growing season....
  16. Too early. I do think the fall and early winter is warm partly due to the +AMO but we'll have to see if the PAC jet is fast etc and some other indicators before we can lock anything in.
  17. GFS and Euro show mainly cold fronts coming through every few days for the next week or so-maybe 10 days...that won't deliver much-need a stalled warm front or tropical remnants....
  18. Had some light showers here this AM but yes it's really dried out last few weeks. September's without tropical activity tend to be dry
  19. the land interaction is often missed with east coast storms-Gloria, Irene etc all sucked in drier continental air, yet forecasters went all in for wind impacts (which in the end only affected a small area)
  20. Makes sense, the cold front will be south of our area by then and we'll have decent NE winds ushering cooler air-models have areas N and E of NYC slipping to near 60 by 6-7pm tonight.
  21. Hot day here but temps will fall to the high 50's here by tomorrow at this time...WOW
  22. Weeklies are warm overall for the next month....there will be cool shots, but appears the warmth will carry the day
