  1. Maybe? 20-21 was the only year I’ve gotten close to climo in the last half decade.
  2. Last year there was no hope here in CT while other places at least had something. This year it’s the opposite. It’s still pretty terrible regionally and I feel for those being left out—knew that feeling all too well last year. Hopefully next week produces for us all.
  3. You got to know when to hold ‘em Know when to fold ‘em Know when to walk away Know when to run You never measure snowfall When you’re lookin’ at a model They’ll be time enough for measurin’ When the storm is done
  4. Glad we had cake this week rather than gagging on the alternative to the brink of unconsciousness.
  5. High res probably gone wild but making me sit up a little for tomorrow’s system.
  6. Snow growth is better despite radar. Coating outside and below 32°.
  7. I’m wary of the Euro but as Will said the synoptic look is close. At this point it’s clear we need luck for any opportunity to produce so we just watch and hope for snow on snow.
  8. Low looks a touch stronger and perhaps a tick north on this run. Not far from being more meaningful in southern CT.
  9. I don’t see it actually ranked on the site but an older article says it would’ve been category 4. Interestingly, December 13-20, 2022 is ranked 4th. If you’re wondering what storm that was…I did too
  10. 1899 is criminally underrated. It’s gotta be top 3 nationally and probably 4th or 5th all time in CT. My top 5 1. Great Blizzard of 1888 2. Blizzard of 1978 3. Great Blizzard of 2013 4. February 1899 Blizzard 5. October 2011 Blizzard
  11. Nothing else to say other than…this just feels right. Hopefully we can get a region wide crusher before this season is over.
  12. He’s great haha. Moved to Utah a few years ago. He keeps me from being too aggressive which usually works but this time he convinced me to move our 6-12 zone just east of Ryan.
  13. No it’s just a hobby. A group of guys—one of whom used to be SkiSheep around here and another that’s a met do forecasting on social media covering CT under the Southern Connecticut Weather banner. I’ve been doing it since 2015 and I’m the lead forecaster/writer these days. It feels like a full time job at times lol.
  14. Beautiful and efficient. High ratio stuff in the morning was clutch. I wish I knew how to do a core sample. Final total of 13.0” on the board (9.4”/3.6”). Compaction happening fast after a peak depth a little over 13” earlier. This storm represented 95% of my entire snowfall last year, is only my second 12+ storm since moving back in 2018, and is tied with 12/16/20 for my largest recorded event here. For my snow hole location and given where we were last night I’m overjoyed. I’m also incredibly proud that we held our snowfall map and high impact forecast when the models tried to pull the rug here. Enjoy CT folks. We’ve seen these days don’t come easy or often.
