Even with the far SE shift, SE CT always manages a way to get screwed ~3" for coastal new london county

I was surprised to see that. Maybe far lower ratios? They’re such a snow pit it’s hard to watch. 

It feels so good to finally be in a jackpot zone.  

Nothing else to say other than…this just feels right.

Hopefully we can get a region wide crusher before this season is over.

SkiSheep! LOL. He was a character.

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.

You work for a weather vendor?

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. 

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. 

Getting close to the end here.

Hey I'm not debbing anything in the LR thread. I'm trying to make changes there. And are you even a Ravens fan? (I forget now since you moved)

The Deb thing was more a joke—not pointed at anyone. 

Answer below but I’ve rooted for a truly terrible franchise long enough that I’d be frustrated but far from despondent with the Ravens.

You obviously haven't grown up as a Cleveland sports fan!!! LOL!!!!  They've had plenty of teams that were embarrassments!

I’m a Raiders fan.

Dang...have the Ravens become...a national embarrassment? Smh The way people are talking about us it sure does feel like it. Man I don't play but I identify with the team and I feel that mess, smh Where's my brown paper bag?

The Cowboys are a national embarrassment. They do less with more than any franchise in football. The Ravens will be fine.

God's sake, even with every blasted model showing a highly favorable and amazing pattern toward the middle of February into the first part March or so, you still have awful downer posts in the medium range thread!  I swear, some people really should be five-posted.

Debs unite!

For all the complaining you hear on social media, the NFL is probably stronger than ever. They’re going to do a gargantuan number in two weeks.
