    I drove through Northeastern Connecticut today and the foliage is mostly at peak or slightly past peak. Alot of Oak and Pine compeating with the foliage color. It's a tough area to take foliage pictures in. Heavily forested, lots of private land and few scenic vista's. Upper Bolton Pond, Bolton Connecticut:

    Color developing here in Northern Connecticut with the non Oak. Probably peak this upcoming week and early next. Sodom Pond, Somers Connecticut

    Actually, in this house it's the opposite. Oil heat downstairs and electric baseboard upstairs. I live upstairs and I can heat each room individually. Going to keep the downstairs at 65F or so.

    I'm hoping this Winter isn't overly hard. I'm living alone in a 4 bedroom house and I'm handicapped. This house is about as unfriendly to a handicapped person as possible. Multiple stairs and on a hill.

    Thanks, trying to enjoy the foliage, but sad about my Dad.

    My dad was sick for a long time and passed away on 7/31. So posting wasn't of much interest. I'm also living alone in the house and it was nice to get away yesterday.

    Peak foliage color in Southern Vermont yesterday in Londonderry, Bondville and West Dover. It's about 7-10 days behind last year, but better quality. South of the Massachusetts line isn't all that pretty heading home via Route 112 and the Mohawk Trail, Route 2. Surprisingly, the Connecticut River Valley around Brattleboro is near peak. Usually it's green.

    I haven't been on here in awhile, but my father has been sick and just passed away today.

    Light dusting of snow here after an intense squall moved through.

    Light snow here in my part of Enfield. Changed to snow around 2am. Never seen snowfall in May outside of Vermont and Colorado. Currently 34F.

    Another Winter that deserves mentioning is the Winter of 2000-2001. Killington - Okemo 4/2001: This is the most snow I've seen late season at Killington/Okemo.

    The snow was so deep , that the snowcat digging out Spillway broke a track and got stuck on 4/17. Just an amazing week of skiing the week before, just feet of snow.

    7/10/89 While I didn't experience the tornadoes first-hand, I did see the extreme damage done to Mohawk Mountain. You could see it's path for many years afterward.

    2/11/83 - I remember really loud thunder and lightning with the blizzard. I was 11 years old at the time.

    Saddleback 4/14/07 A day before closing day and just before the start of the 4/14 - 17 Nor'easter. This remains the most snow I've ever seen in April. Previously I'd seen a few inches of snow here and there, but not feet. Saddleback closed on 4/15/07 with a 60" base.

    Different skiing experience here, March was epic in the Catskills, really deep powder. Sugarloaf closed on 4/28 with 100% of the mountain still ski able.

    I've skied and seen it snow all 12 months in the Northern Hemisphere. I've seen Summer snow at Arapahoe Basin in June, July snow at Timberline Lodge, August Snowfall at Stubital in Austria and September Snowfall in Iceland.

    Extremely late snowfall in May of 1996. Snow on 5/12/96 in New York State and Vermont.

    11/23/89 4" of snow at my parents house in Bayside. I drove to my friends house in Dix Hills for Thanksgiving dinner and right into the storm. Near zero visibility and heavy snow. My car nearly went off the road.

    11/12/87 - snow on my birthday in NYC. Rain and snow 11-12/87.
  24. Sugarloaf1989
    NYC broke it's snowfall record with that storm. I'd take that Winter again in a heartbeat. Snowfall from November to April. Fantastic skiing nearly all season long. Snowfield skiing at Sugarloaf in January, waist deep powder skiing in March at Plattekill and Bobcat. Sugarloaf closed on 4/29 with top to bottom coverage and no bare spots. Nasty January thaw though.
