    were you able to open the pic? i just realized it didn't embed, anyway it was a pic of about 18 during the storm on my grill, I stayed up all night for that one, and delayed a job interview because of it.

    that was a good year, I was rewiring a bank mostly second shift, in Fairfield and at noon they told us to call it, but it came down so hard and fast the Merritt was stopped and we got to Rt8 an hour later, didn't get home until like 10 that night, unsure if it was the Feb storm, but some fun ones that season

    yeah was nuts, I think there was a lawsuit or something that came out of that, because there were kids stuck on a bus on a hill until like night time, and I think another accident...they dismissed school early past tuesday because of wind...pfft! it's breezy out, send em home early!

    I recall one I wanna say was after 07 cause it was after I bought the house in Waterbury, we had heavy accumulating squall event right when school let out and a lot of buses got stuck and a couple had accidents, with all them hills it was insane

    Good cluster, but not that amped...still time to work that. I figure what happens on the 16/17th will have an effect on this one, with the s/w's being so close together.

    Jan 2011 waterbury...Season of yore!

    was that the one that put down a quick 5-6" in spots of SNE?

    it appears now my trip to Florida is going to be pushed right again, so I may not be driving on the weekend of the 20th, not sure if it's a good thing or bad, I was originally supposed to leave tomorrow... now maybe get to see a couple of good events and cold before I head down

    that was the most snow I've ever seen in a single event, although 78 was longer lasting and higher impact, we got 27" in 78 in wtby, and 32" in 13... I think Feb 83, or 82 I can't remember was also 2'+ in wtby anyway

    it was so close to, I remember just waiting for the growth to get better but never really did, although pretty impressive to pull a foot in sand snow
  11. tavwtby
    I was in Waterbury for that one, and we pinged for hours after getting close to 2', which took totals down
  12. tavwtby
    yeah WOR didn't do that great in that one, it wasn't zilch, but imby it was like hours of sand and poor snow growth and exhaust, believe I still got double digits though, just wasn't 2'+

    we had the same problem and have since put gutters on this old house, yeah we didn't have them, and pointed all the gaps between the stones, then applied multiple coats of water proofing paint, we used drylox, but there's a number of them you can use, I know it's tedious but it makes a huge difference, and the dam for short term issues I'd go with

    what about April 97, although short lived and before 2000
  15. tavwtby
    snowing to beat the band here in Winsted to start sitting right around 30

    just watched a documentary about the chestnut blight, incredible how many that wiped out and how much of a staple they were to Appalachia before it happened, and those are huge trees that you could cut a certain way, so they would grow back and not have to kill the tree, pretty fascinating stuff, can imagine getting clocked by them in a wind storm tho would do damage

    planning on driving to Florida for work on the 19-21, I usually break it up in 3 segments, looks like it may be an interesting drive this go around

    I'm still skeptical about that 17 in Granby, I was up there this morning and looked about the same as my place and through barkhamsted, but could have been a little micro climate situation, idk, but it sticks out with most around here between 10-14", good job with this btw, it's nice to see a summary after to see the pattern of snowfall
  19. tavwtby
    other than the 15th, I don't see any measurable on guidance by the time I leave for soflo for a month... won't be back until mid Feb, hopefully back ender this year, sitting at 14 on the season, just broke 41 last year, and barely got 30 year before, avg here is like 78, first couple winters here were great, both 90+, then a couple decent mixed in with the rats.
  20. tavwtby
    17 in Granby?? that's a crazy outlier, maybe caught more from rd 2, but overall a fairly consistent distribution in NWCT, over to ENY and up to SNH... actually that stripe went down to PA, was pretty well modeled I think.
  21. tavwtby
    little pixelated but you can see the stripe of 10-18" right down to PA up to NH ..
  22. tavwtby
    it appears we have a zone from Ulster/Duchess cty area up to the Lowell area plus and minus about 30 miles that got 10+, that sound about right?
  23. tavwtby
    limped our way to 12.5" here with this last burst coming right as we finished doing the snow, which was as hard as it was last night surprisingly because radar doesn't look good, but under 1/2mi vis for almost an hour put down the final half inch... nice storm here for us, feel for the south peeps, looks like it's rockin up in orh cty up into SNH
  24. tavwtby
    looks like it's rockin from about wilbraham up to Lowell, nice band consolidating there
  25. tavwtby
    looks like the last gasp incoming, if it sticks together, otherwise I'm going out to clean up, we have a newly paved driveway, so it's going to be a pleasure with the new blower as well... nothing worse than a bumpy driveway trying to snowblow or shoveling...total as of now 11.5, need a good push to top a foot
