  1. Our AFD is oddly out of touch with this down here. Huh. Talking like it’s “ possible some areas might need a frost advisory. “ Wtf. 32-36 everywhere already. Interesting
  2. Today felt like it should entering November - or reasonably within range … just sayn’ but I know I know I know autumn can be a long haul bore.
  3. … 40 already here. Coldest so far this season relative to time of diurnal Heavy glow lawn frost seems imminent Curiously … has there been a policy shift on frost headlines/issuance. I don’t believe the region has pervasively experienced one this season, and it seems tonight is a candidate for that but maybe I’m missing something. Perhaps no for the general presumption of end-growing season is already consumed
  4. Yeah this is about the the very best one could ever ask out of a Novie 6 Not sure how and what will manifest within, but that first 10 days of November has been signaled for quite some time as a period of colder temperatures …However so anomalous to be determined. That isn’t the first run above that suggested something similar might emerge. Got some Telecon support
  5. Has that look of air mass where crispy mornings feature pond ice around edges, and still there in the shaded inlets late afternoon ... Nov 3-10 .. who knows thereafter.
  6. Guess it depends on "effect" context and aspect/profiling therein ... Bob ate the region for a dining tab about $1.5 billion according to Wiki- so .. fwiw We'll have to see what/how limbs littering lawns and power infrastructure tallies compare. also ... I wonder what the marine/harbor impacts were
  7. Yeah... I think I'm good and ready for this Nor'easter to trundle its way out into its death smear across the norther Atlantic and good riddance. After awhile with these things ... I tend to get storm fatigue. Almost "modeling and following the f'er ad nauseam" fatigue, is more like it. I just get to a point, sometimes even before they happen where it is 'enough is enough' already. How many different model renditions of the same event does one need to field. Particularly when we all know it will strike one or two communities while sparing the rest of us a pedestrian ordeal. It's like a state Lotto ... If you are that lucky town, you won that storms drawing. And its like somehow by escape into the model triggered re-imagined reality, we up our chances of picking the right numbers on our tickets. So, most don't win.... But, because we risk "hurting the storms" feelings, during cancel-culture, or risk getting black-listed in the weather-social-media's equivalence to the House on being Un-American Activities Committee or something... the storm gets to be an all-timer. Gosh forbid one ever is - ..who's gonna know it?
  8. Really ... nah - I see a teleconnector signaled, trend-footed confidence scenario for a "seasonal cold" wave - meaning ...nothing extraordinary, no. But pervasive sub 540 hydrostatic thickness, under a generally moderate +PNAP flow structure that pervades the continent, from ~ Nov 2nd through the 9th. Of course, that's going by the tenor of the operational GFS, combine with the telecon from the GEFs system - still... I don't find these sources, in that time range, to necessarily be auto- less reliable than the EPS cluster. I guess we'll see. But ...you know? part of the problem is that we are 'extraordinary event' saturated to the point where we don't see the middling 'normal' departures as readily. It's sort of conditioning us to collectively even inadvertently miss if not ignore them, altogether. Case in point: Imagine a scenario where there are three distinct winter events in a 10-day period. One is 3-5" with a big scale -up potential, one is 3-5 but is sketchy, but the D7 one is a historic blizzard. The first one verifies 4.5" ... while the D7/8 comes in modeled even more terrifying catastrophic.. The, the next sketchy one does surprisingly well, but by shadow of the looming ( now ) D6 cryo-bomb, does anyone even know it is snowing? Then, the big dawg busts. What do you think the opinion of those 10 days will be, when in fact ... 9 or 10" is a 7 to 10 day +snow anomaly? This is the life as weather chart over-stimulated storm junkies - not a very good or realistic perspective. I mean I'm not saying this is you .. I'm speaking the straw American weather site - ..Something like that and over-numbing may not be seeing this cool down in early November ( and this is in spirit been consistent for several consecutive cycles of the GFS) - and again.. fits the erstwhile PNA/NAO ... even hints in some Euro runs for -EPO 'blip' but cross that bridge:
  9. While right to say it he is unfortunately futile for the effort, for there is no audience in social mediasphere available to really hear that message. It would be like trying to penetrate some street corner heroin addict's mind with wellness rhetoric. The charts and graphics? They are either the needle, or the junk in the needle. The feed-back on line from others also seeking' the push', bouncing back and forth between ... ever amplifying the fever-pitch? That is the act of plunging the syringe. It is all part of the same force that was outlined in "60 Minutes" expose' ... or NETFLIX' "The Social Dilemma" - this in here? It's just our brand. ...So, it's a societal problem ..which this can go off at tangent indefinitely at this point heh. I mean, the Internet, and the vastness of how it touches all using tech related direct, or indirectly to it, now pushes the motifs to modalities infinitum .. to the point where quantifiable it is most probably the most extraordinary thing Humanity has ever contrived - and we don't even know it for being in the weeds (feels too good to question anyway - right?) We are living the greatest dystopian ( or utopian - verdict is still out...) novel that never was actually written. I don't mean to excoriate any one "user" in our midst - lol. Lord knows, I sense/feel a charge out of a deep digging winter trough, just as well... But there is a difference between feeling that sense of awe and wanting to experience x-y-z, vs a tendency to shuck rationalism, and/or any dissenting opinions that even 'sound objective,' in lieu of re-enforcing bias ahead of time. Sorry, that is creating a delusion - almost by proper definition. Create a bubble of constant fascination to fixate within a framework of less-likely plausibility, just like these expose' evince, is an escape ... into a psychotropic high. And yet another tangential: there is no consequence in lingering there in a modern industrial-mollycoddled assumption of security. This is a problem... I love discussing this stuff and I realize this is probably not appropriate here, but the over-arching "buy-in" to the media is apropos. I digress.. Still, much of the leading proportionality was well met for SE zones - that's the enabling lie. "It wasn't that I believe the fever-pitch; it just didn't penetrate as far" I mean it's easy to sense ( thus) why folks get palpably pissed-off ( ...though think they are hiding it heh -) when 4 days before a modeled winter storm, the models so much as hint the bubble might deflate. In some sense of it, the actual storm its self is less important than the bubble of excitement created ahead of time - you pop that bubble, oh boy ... It sets off Facebook fights and Twitter rages, or trolling ... far worse than any storm fashioned by careful selection of graphics and dystopia feed-back loops
  10. Yeah the Ida comparisons were annoying eye-roller material ahead of this thing
  11. I'd watch in suspect for those anomalies to normalize toward a more seasonal cold departure .. gradually, as the days and model cycles click by over the next week.
  12. Ah ha. I bet you a dozen donuts no kid likes rectal plaque weather, either
  13. It’ll keep belaying until it never actually happens LOL
  14. Dec 1992 came close … Brockton MA had nearly 5” of cat paw rain then flipped to 6 hrs of blue air chutes and snowed (I think) 9” 3.5” of cat paw rain fell sideways under undulating ceilings ( …low melt level ) at UML. And then came the 17” the top 9 of which was powder. ORH hills did 36 give or take but even there lost the fist in. of QP to white rain.
  15. I “think” he’s sniffing a bust to some degree ?
  16. Rad and sat look like this cyclone has maxed Im sure you’ll get your wind but it looks like barely missing the best
  17. Unfortunately, I have never heard of any kind of retarding or action belated based upon lack of antecedence - My immediate impression is that is meaningless - storms happen by restoring forces, no other constraining factors - if the breach between the two sides is opened, A --> B until A = B. Period. When synoptic imbalances set up, the action of restoring ( " --> " ) is the 'storm event' - but A and B are wholly physically identifiable para and discrete metrics. Like hot over there...cold over here... through moisture in between - boom. There's no "rehearsal" or practice about it. I understand your fuzzy with memory.. I'd have to read whatever it is you're referring to render a very good opinion -but just based upon what you've said ..heh.
  18. You can really see how this is likely to evolve just by observing the general synoptic layout and then balancing in the looping satellite. That best present perceived centric low pressure has coalesced SE of the Cape ... It appears on sat to be moving NNE, but ..there is a limit to how much longer that motion can persist. There is blocking NNE ..this thing has maybe 50 more naut mi before it's slammin' to a halt. It will at minimum stall when that happens, but may as well assume the advertised west motion toward the coast. The latter italicized is crucial in the amount of wind that pulses west along with it, then lingerings over night - if and when..
  19. I'd suggest 10 .. 20% above the background climate signal - The mass field indicators ( telecon spread ... ) lend to plausibility by pure statistics - which doesn't unfortunately offer any specific insight on how or what happens, but it is' purely based on the numbers. We have a maintenance -NAO bouncing around but holding negative, while the PNA is doings so positive. But for me, the tell might be that the operational runs et al seem to have a more than less coherent +PNAP amplitude interval ..roughly Nov 3 to 11th in there. So, it's like early detection - whether it is that above, or something else as yet to emerge, an 'emergence' some modest favoring over baseline.
