  1. Oh it effects all, just want to rub it in, to those who cherish their fake cold.
  2. Fake cold places will not be happy as GW targets overnight mins.
  3. It’s warm for a couple next week, but ending after that. ACATT will enjoy normal temps.
  4. Brisk morning here with breezy NNE winds. But the big news is.....Sun!
  5. You’ll be able to have pina coladas on the deck next week.
  6. It does look warm next week and then that’s about it.
  7. Dews up again today. Extended shorts and flip flops season. Endless summer.
  8. That wasn’t a downer comment at all. I mean look at Pittsburgh NH. That would have went undocumented even 3 years ago, if it wasn’t for a met friend of mine and OceanStWx. Chris forced the issue. Lots of rinky dink funnels could have been easily missed. On the other hand, some tornado damage could have been straight line winds too.
  9. Records for tornadoes are tough since everything these days is caught on camera or reported. You can say most since so and so year or most ever, but can get an asterisk too.
  10. It was defintely an impressive event, especially in PA. Some of the things I noticed in this event that stood out, were better lapse rates aloft and shear. Overall you had higher MLCAPE and better shear aloft. I recall previous events having near 50kts or so around 850, but then dropped as you got near 500. The shear in this one was a bit higher and accompanied by a decent mid level s/w. So this helps sustain mesos that do develop. Also winds screamed from the 200-230 direction just below 850mb. I think this event had winds more veered in that level compared to previous events.
  11. 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.
  12. 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.
  13. LOL, I know. Instead we debate when to uninstall.
  14. That was a decent winter overall. Definitely good in the interior I believe.
  15. 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. http://www.wcsu.edu/weather/research_papers/Third_Tri_State/Frank.pdf
  16. 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.
  17. 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,
  18. 1.3 when I left and still raining. More to the south and southwest though.
