  1. It is absolutely roaring already . Midnight -5:00 AM wild
  2. You know where they got it from. Remember Red Rocks golf course where Buckland Mall is now ? As they dug all that red sand out of there.. they sold it to all the local towns for winter. It would grind into your car carpets.. ruin shoes and pants.. and collect all n roadsides and you’d fall on motorcycles and bikes as kids in the spring riding until street sweepers came
  3. I remember as a kid you’d get behind a plow and could hear the tiny sand pebbles mixed in hitting the windshield . They used red sand here growing up and it left a hideous reddish brown all over everything. My dad would go out into our culdesac and sweep the entire circle up with a push broom, shovel loads of it into wheelbarrow and dump it into our woods
  4. That will never ever happen in CT. Sand is so 80’s. It does nothing
  5. I honestly thought sand was done . I know some boondocks in Maine use it from traveling in sales up there, but it’s very rare, terrible for the environment and does nothing for roads as the plows just plowed it off as soon as it’s dropped . It’s simply a cost measure so they save money on salt consumption
  6. If all the hi res is correct with 55-70mph you’d expect a couple hundred thousand outages . SW winds tonight vs straight south makes a huge difference. Almost no inversion since it’s mainly land based
  7. Starting to roar out there as LLJ starts its approach. Absolutely insane night ahead 12-6:00 AM
  8. The early week torch storm is trending cold
  9. Will might be right about early week turning wintry in SNE
  10. Sand? No one uses sand anymore. It’s all salt
  11. With rain coming to get them dirty ? Nah
  12. Ok.. and heed your good friends advice here!
  13. Treehouse or a local brewery up near you . Bet is you lose power right?
  14. And lose half the time. Fair proposition
  15. You’ll likely lose power for a day or two there in Metheun
  16. HRRR models winds well. It’s been consistent with those gusts the last 6 runs
  17. I’d prefer snow but it looks icier to me in SNE
  18. Looks to me like more zr/ sleet with snow NNE
  19. There is an ice signal in SNE end of next week
  20. Already ripping out there . As sun gets higher expect more rips
  21. We grass. First grass here since Jan 5th
