  1. Timing worked out well. 3 hrs later and it would have been a disaster. 128 was shut down by Burlington.
  2. You also need to look at decadal cycles. We have had wet and dry 20-30 yr stretches. This year the pattern has features a lot of troughs in the east, and a wet pattern. A warmer atmosphere can hold more water, but even a 1C increase is only a 7% increase in water vapor.
  3. I think you are overdoing that. We have been averaging the same amount of precip give or take a few inches for the last 100 years.
  4. 0.2" this morning, and 0.3" squalls. 6.2" YTD.
  5. There was a few signs on the QPF fields, but more aggressive than I thought too.
  6. About .3" or so and everything white including street. Not bad. Still snowing.
  7. Nobody really had a SE ridge and AO second half of December. It temporarily became Nina. That will last into early Jan. My guess is that the first week of Jan may still be hostile, but get better after. Perhaps hostile is a strong word...but basically not ideal.
  8. Actually picked up a coating just now from earlier stuff.
  9. Nasty squalls near pike out by Palmer/Warren.
  10. Weeklies look better week 3 and darn nice week 4. Better than last update.
  11. The observatory isn’t really an ASOS as I understand it. They don’t have instrumentation to detect cigs and vis. Also, I’m pretty sure they may gather rain data from other gauges. I’m not 100% sure though. The anemometers are on top of the observatory building.
  12. Nah you shouldn’t feel that way. People may joke, but be loud and proud. Hell I would.
  13. I think that’s what he means. It’s a lot of undercatch. I only noticed this for Boston, but I’m sure it’s everywhere.
  14. LOL. Most appreciate your enthusiasm. Hell I would too if I had that machine kick in behind fropas. Looks solid up there for warning amounts near the mtns.
  15. I took my frustrations out in the Pats thread so all is well.
  16. You know it’s bad when the upslope guys have ventured into their place of safety....Just PF, Jspin, and Alex. Tamarack gets an honorable mention since his pack never takes a hit.
  17. No I mean overall precip received. Year after year. Obviously there are going to be some differences and I can except that....but year after year it’s the same thing. Probably no coincidence the coops are higher with the stratus gauges.
  18. I have noted this multiple times, but KBOS really stands out low on the precip front. Almost every year. I don't see that as coincidence, but I'm not sure what it could be other than issues with instrumentation. I would need to see other sites, but you have some samples not far from the city.
  19. Nice disco John. I notes the stratosphere the other day. I do wonder if we can constructively manifest itself down like we did last year. Also, we are seeing a standing wave develop near 135 E as a result of easterlies at 850. That's more Nina vs Nino. One think this should go away?
  20. He’s in Buffalo. Probably lightning fires and table smashing with the rest of Bills mafia.
  21. Chickens under water in Northfield, NH.
