46/44 drizzle. Yay.
Hopefully one more torchy week late in the month and then we can step into winter mode. I'll hope for another dry stretch for fall clean-up.
Euro should bust a little high on it’s calls from earlier in the week for W MA precipitation totals. Not even .10” so far this week here. I can’t see tonight being more than .25”
Really just Monday and then it looks like just intermittent AN days in a slightly BN regime for most of NE.
Looks like later in October the entire conus warms a bit.
Foliage season in W MA is going to be a quick peek here me thanks. Tons of leathery green here right now with pockets of color. I’m a little worried that some of my favorite places are fairly muted and already losing leaves.
I think the dry August probably took it’s toll but it’s all good there will still be some decent color I hope. A wind driven rain storm would be the wildcard that screws us.
I think the entire point was there are just increased incidences of it this year for whatever reason and the warm weather isn’t helping.
Not much to read into there.
Also, New England Hurricane, A Factual Pictorial Record By the Federal Writers Project is pretty good. It was published in 1939 but you can find acceptable copies for short money.
US news outlets have no interest in Atlantic Canada. it's boring. It will be a slow process getting everybody online as it will be a street by street effort. At one point 80% of Nova Scotia was without power. I can't imagine there are much more than 50k people on PEI. New Brunswick has a lot of customers out as well.
1) Blizzard of 78 (I was 10 and school was cancelled for a week!)
2) April Fool s 97 (Awesomeness!)
3) January 2005 Blizzard (30"+ in Cambridge)
4) October 2011 Snow Storm (Freak storm)
5) Hurricane Irene (Western New England flooding was surreal)

I've had several personal severe weather episodes that have been personally mind blowing but were isolated so I went with the historic stuff.
