95-96 was like a batter closing his eyes while swinging....and doubling up the alley every time.

we had a howling pack living (I think) in a patch of woods just above back yard. Whenever an ambulance or siren went by they would howl - it was kind of funny actually.

Yup, my wife and son were walking the dogs a couple of weeks ago in the woods at the end of Valley View, when they came upon a half-eviscerated, sizeable buck.  One of the dogs was very edgy, so they probably hadn't gone far.

This season reminds me of one in the early 2000’s. I don’t recall the year but the first inch of snowfall at BDL was not until like late January or even into Feb. I believe it was an El Niño year. 

01-02.  I remember watching a football game at Ramapo HS in NJ, December, temp in the upper 70's, wearing a T-shirt.  Apropos of nothing, Greg Olsen played in that game.  I recall the rest of the winter blew chunks, but the next two were first rate.

January before things go sideways for again

Are you looking at the MJO making another run through the MC starting around the 10th?

The long euro looks close to something really big.  A capture hook-and-ladder would be nice.

What we didn’t get in the wind here..the rain is certainly producing, should be up over 4” when its all done. 

Good wind down here though, lot's of +50s, even as far west as Greenwich.

Has an icy look with the cold air - shallow as it first bleeds in.   Ice to sleet to snow is fun for all.  Decent wind gradient too.

That right-moving line approaching the Cape looks wild.

We just had a four minute downpour from a shower that showed as a little pin prick on radar.  A harbinger of what's to come.

OK.  East winds veering to SE, sustained140 gusting to 220.

GFS looks east too.  Less wind, but more drought-busting rains.

Meanwhile plenty of cold air exists in the hemisphere...Beijing just got to -6...their previous coldest ever temp in December was -1

Wow, that's an impressive beat down of the old record, and mid-month!

I remember coming home from college at Christmas beak, freshman year.  SWCT had accumulated 0 snow at that point.  That was 1977.

Brush fire in New Haven closing down a portion of 91. This wouldn't have happened if we had snow on the ground. 

Yup.  Another example of CC making our world uninhabitable.

Man that’s a beast cutting well to our west on the GFS. If that would only verify.. I’ll leave it at that for the wind downplayers.

I don't know how anyone downplays the wind.  No inversion at all.

Hmm, 63mb gradient on GFS.  Looks like the low-level cold will be pretty much scrubbed out too.
