The main threads can be a clown show sometimes, but it’s good entertainment. I know you never met most of us before, but it’s a good group of people in the New England forum, even though Phin hated us and pushed for subforums.
It’s not this awful, foul smell. It almost reminds me of a strong green apple scent. One season we had a ton of them (maybe 2010?). But since then I don’t see them much.
If the gfs is right I would think it’s better near the pike area and even N and E. 925-850 actually gets mild in SW CT whereas you have a better WF signature to the northeast. I’d imagine that would help. But then again gfs may be wrong.
