2 hour delay here in Winsted, had to drive my kid into school in Torrington, damn near fell down the deck stairs but roads are fine, sitting at 30.1 with drizzle zr

we got this a week after I got my old bravada, AWD, and we went out pub crawling in it, snowing so hard at on point I had to use the glow of the street lights to navigate, we got 23" I believe in Waterbury on that one, fun times

I picked up the fluffiest inch of snow from the earlier burst around 4, I could still see the deck through it, crazy stacking dendies, nothing falling now despite radar overhead...

historically, our best timeframe for hecs, or just coastal storms in general, has been the last couple weeks of January into the first couple weeks of February...and then again around the ides of March...if we can squeeze out some bonus snows before and after that period and hope for a nice bomb in between, we can maybe reach climo avg for the first time in years in SNE...and elsewhere for that matter... here's to wishcasting for the new year! also, another year without a storm on my birthday tomorrow so I digress.

bottomed out at 5.7 with a nice fresh snow, little dusting overnight was unexpected but take anything at this point, and agreed, we need a monster if only to get spirits up, and get closer to climo, which a lot haven't seen in a long time

yessir, honestly haven't stayed up past midnight on New Year's or any other day in quite awhile now

was shocked to wake up to 3+" otg was only expecting flurries after that initial burst. so, does it count as a Dec snow or Jan? because I was out before midnight, no idea when it went through

we coat

I'm at 14", looks about right for here too

going back in all the data I collected and plotted season totals, you can definitely see a cyclical pattern to the goods, we had a good stretch that peaked in 36, another that peaked in 56, again in 96, there are a couple stragglers in or outliers, put a definite trendline emerges... that said I believe we've bottomed out and will turn the corner eventually and get back to the goods, law of averages given a long enough time line

would not be surprised to see a quick 2/3" in that I got a little over an inch and it was nowhere near that

nice whitener after the melt today, only lost about half of what fell the other day if that tho, so bonus!

nice unexpected quick inch of snow with fropa, blowing and temp dropping, tomorrow gonna be deep winter

Winchester center reading 37, but my station has been at 30 all morning, either I need a new station or cold has locked in this little area, win center is up above 1100' if I'm not mistaken, I'll tell you what, it's a sheet of ice everywhere from deck to driveway, nearly bought it letting out the chickens

every year they're out there throwing sparks at nothing, but the other night didn't see a plow until well after midnight, they're out now slipping and sliding up the hill trying to treat it, waste time and resources early and if we have a rough winter cry about budget in February they're out of sand and salt etc...btw, still 30 and pretty steady ZR here now, my station needs new batteries so closest one will have to due
