Boston area was the center of bad luck during those years. It was one thing seeing Shelby Scott from WBZ live on one of the hills in Worcester in pounding snow while I was raining, but to see Jimmy-land get pounded with 2 footers was excruciating.
This is why we are scared.
Will and I have talked many times about how 6” was the point I would literally jump up and down for excitement. It was that bad, but we didn’t know any better.
I guess I can put this here, but neat PDF on the big 10/4/87 snow event in western NE. Nothing for Tolland though. Even SW CT got snow.

Maybe it's like last winter and leans negative for a month or so? If I had to WAG, I would lean more positive with maybe a period in the mid to late winter where it goes negative.
I respond to questions ask, and always try to post good info where applicable. I also don't bleed oil and like to have some fun. Sorry you're offended. Most people on here know each other and are just having some fun. Lighten up Francis,
Some people see it as a badge of honor..perhaps like a "my weenie is bigger than yours" type thing if you can be without it. I don't care if I lived in Nicaragua or Nunavut...if the dews are high, we A/C.
Most of this will just be general tstms though. But, not bad for Oct. Front may get north of pike late today and evening. Not sure it goes as far north as guidance shows.
Looks active late today and tonight. Should be convection across a lot of the area. Watch near and south of front as low level conditions may be favorable for a quicky spinny.
