Nice day for golf. Little smokey but workable. 

 

Wow, where is this? I can see myself clanging one off that ledge and right back into play after a few beers

A hideous and unholy distribution. May it never happen again!

Actually it has…I can give you an example…January blizzard in 2016.  New Haven got croaked, and Tolland got fringed.  So it does happen from time to time. But it won’t with sat/sun. 

Was that the year we called “southwest ct winter”? I guess there was that one case…

these maps and forecasts from okx and box are all over the place. if you didnt know any better or just like the general public you could get anything from 4-6", 4-7", 5-9" 8-12" for the same location! whether you click on the watch, the pc, the zone, or the 2 different maps they have. they gotta fix their messaging, its crazy.

And the watch for NYC/LI for 2-4 doesnt make sense

Good callout. 8-12” in New Haven and 3-6” in my area has never happened in my 54 years lol

Dippin dots here in Ellington. Weird

Always Springfield with these.

Ridiculous dumpage here. Headed for a foot for certain in Ellington

It’s hard to describe how hard it’s snowing in this band . I don’t think this really does justice .

First storm since moving to tobacco valley that elevation not a factor. Absolutely dumping and sticking to everything

Pasted here in Ellington. Probably 6”

Dumping here. 1 inch otg total snow globe 

Rain with parachutes mixing in here in lower elevations of Ellington

First audible pings here in Smellington

This is so much like that 2010 event 

4” in 30 minutes with lightning. Yes please!

Popcorn cell out of nowhere here in Ellington, pea size hail and decent wind.

You would be surprised how often somebody logs into personal and office and forgets which they are posting from. 

I also wish I could say this will result in a severe punishment for the person responsible, but that's pretty unlikely. Maybe some unpaid leave, but you have to really go above and beyond to get fired once you are past probation. Like use government car for personal use bad. 

Or, frustration with the SoCal homeless situation has exceeded whispered tones, which is not relatable to you as a New Englander

Oh I didn’t know you moved from Tolland. Are you on the other side of the hill in Ellington coming down the back way from Tolland?

Yup, down in “Smellington”

First is next door neighbor deck . She measured 6” . I measured 5.5”

700+ really made a difference, I am in the flat part of Ellington, looking at 1.5” of glop at most here. 

Those box maps are rarely wrong especially when showing a downcast depiction. Weigh it, factor it, pause a bit on the breathless exuberance

Just imagine if you will.. if this was December leading up to the holidays.. when you can sustain a pack .. and the sun doesn’t cause a hot steering wheel or red neck after a lunch outside .. how much more special this would feel 

These seem so rare in Dec though. March is more fun, violent, volatile 

Parachutes with pellets in Ellington. 36F

So my 401 is down 200k since Jan ‘21, unsightly’s can now go topless on Nantucket, and worst of all,  my company put us back in masks an hour ago. 
Mandatory. But we can sit together and eat lunch for an hour until we go back in the lab or at our desk. All hybrid employees can use their own judgement as to how safe it is to come in to the office. 
Im praying we go back yellow soon. It was a great 7 weeks maskless though. 

That is pathetic. Sorry your company is so lame and anti-science. You are in the .01% of organizations still carrying on with such nonsense, I’m sorry to tell you

LOL at those who think the housing price run up is natural and market based, and not the leading indicator of hyperinflation 

Radar shows otherwise but it’s ripping here with killer winds. Love it!

We windward side

In terms of snow,
looking at 2 to 4 inches in the Advisory areas, with up to 6 inches
possible in the eastern slopes of the Berkshires. However the higher
totals should more closely follow the terrain and especially the
windward sides of the Berkshires and northern Worcester/Tolland
hills. 

Respect for and recognition of the soaring, majestic spires of the Tolland Massif is somewhat of a recent phenomenon in CT wx forecasting

Imagine the balls to negotiate buying oil with Iran and Venezuela, because of green concerns, while we have the oil in the ground sitting read to be produced. Meanwhile instead if creating US jobs we pay dictators to kill people. There is absolutely no sense to this Administration's policies. Feckless

It’s just stubbornness at this point. The other side can’t be proven right in any way
