That's right. Expected rain to start, but started as snow in Hamden. That was an "uh-oh" moment. The trees started to sag in an hour, then came the pops and shotgun blasts. Thankfully not a disaster near the coast, but boy was the Hartford area a disaster.

My memory was that models trended colder and colder as we got closer to game time. There was a lot of incredulity and model tossing initially, but by the time we got the warm up event on 10/27, we knew something special was coming.

Rough year for Louisiana.

Hey, my old boss won $200 million in October '11 after the storm. Most of CT had no power, but Greenwich did. Go figure. Dude was already loaded too.

Oddly enough, this does still share some vestigial commonality with those 380 hour GFS snowicane projections. This end of October period is always interesting.
-
That would exceed my entire '19-'20 season haha.

My money is on E. It was a clusterf&ck with the testing last spring, so the case numbers were probably significantly higher than they are now and we were just missing them. If I remember right, CT had like 11,000 cases and over a 1,000 deaths going into the summer. No way the mortality rate is anywhere near that high. We were just missing a lot of cases.

Super exciting time. I don't think I slept more than a few hours each night that whole week. I was practically psychotic by the time landfall actually happened.
-
The pattern in that run was a pretty drastic departure from the previous four or five.

Yup, Octobomb '11, Sandy, Stowe blowdown, SE Mass mini cane. That week produces some wild stuff.

Sucker is absolutely booking, too. Would have to think coastal flooding would be quite something.
-
I'll give it points for being consistent. Whether that's consistently wrong is TBD.

That place will be burning for another century or two.

Back in the good ol' days before they developed the base.

Pain is a powerful teacher, more so than pleasure sadly. The last few seasons still hurt acutely, while 2004-05 and 2014-15 are just pockets of warmth in the recesses of memory.

Yeah we all had wood over the look last fall. After back to back Modoki fake out seasons, that word is now on my Fraud Five list.
-
Bit more blocky looking that run. Amplified pattern for sure.
-
Definitely with you on the block. I'd need to see that before I could really give this much attention.
-
Yes, seeing legit snowflakes on the coastal plain in May was the ultimate insult after last winter.

Nothing last forever, even droughts by Dave Epstein.

It sort of reminds me of that monster nor'easter we had in Jan '18. Different origins obviously, but the look at our latitude is very reminiscent.

Weird shit likes to go down on October 27th.

You can Kuchie many things. Many...things.

Show me the Kuchie.

Not very blocky, but I suppose if you were to dig that system in the Lakes a little earlier...maybe?
