Hoth

Amen brutha!

We've put in some pretty anomalous systems around that date. Not saying that's happening, but it is our sweet spot in the last decade.

Warm and wet usually means exactly that in these parts.

Yes, and you can really see that Saharan wasteland locally known as Mt. Tolland, too.

Dang. Didn't Mt. Tom have a nasty microburst a few years back too?

This winter is going to be rough from a health standpoint, so yeah, let's keep it warm and maximize outdoor time as long as possible.

I'm just tossing winter going in. Anything that does come will be a pleasant surprise.

The worst kind of deja vu if that happens. Yikes.

Jan '11 was awesome, but I lived in Boston in '15 and it blew everything else away.

The last blast of Feb '15. Probably the high water mark for winter in my lifetime.

My bro just tried the Trillium/Vitamin Sea collaboration. Said it was spectacular.

Congrats WOTR folks. That's probably the last time I'll say that until next May.

Was that a big deal in SNE? I was up in VT at the time and don't remember much after its Florida landfall.

What happened in '05?

symmetrical wind and rain field by NE standards, and a legit eye when it came ashore. New London had sunny conditions as the eye passed over.

I dunno...

We've had a fair amount of home brew this year, so worth keeping an eye on it, I suppose.

I see what you did there...

Anyone think Teddy makes a run at cat 5?

Lol, I totally remember this melt! I was panicking myself that the dry slot was going to get me. It did for a half hour, but still managed like 27".

Here's what we'll do. As it no longer snows in southern CT, I will enter into a snow futures contract with you. You ship me X cubic meters of snow each month on dry ice. Your total snow removal cost drops to nothing. I, in turn, will spread the snow and glaciate it with my hose, thereby making it a marvel of the CT River Valley. I will sell tickets to all and sundry to sled at a buck a run. I'll even have Ryan bring in "Snow Monster" for a cameo. I'll also enter into a snowfall credit default swap of sorts, in case your winter turns out like 2016. Deutsche will underwrite just about anything.

I'm psyched for the waves at Schoodic Point. Other than that, meh.

Drought will deflect it out to sea.

I wouldn't consider Sandy a NE hurricane, given that it made landfall in southern Jersey.

Looking at the 0z Euro now, the SW trend of the cutoff definitely stopped and reversed a bit. Not what those in search of a devastating blow want to see.
