EPS qpf?

I’ve always found it so cool how slight differences in topography and siting can make a huge difference.

That’s a lot of New England

Longer. A lot of the public has gotten used to blowtorches and 25% climo snow since this crap started in 2018-19. Now we’re getting a classic NE winter and folks are freaking out.

Tossed to the moon.

Maybe they got siting tips from our friend?

There’s nothing like a deep winter landscape

East central part of town right near the Manchester line.

34.3° here. Did a little more shoveling to widen the driveway.

This is by far the longest I’ve held onto higher end snowpack in a while.

Love this thread.

This reminds me of needabiggerboat or something like that, who probably had the funniest stuff in the history of this forum.

True but as you know, we’ve had a hard time getting full winters around here in the 2020s. We’re lucky we’re even sitting where we are. Without the big -WPO protecting us this winter we’d probably be staring down another ratter. Let’s keep the momentum going.

I think we have until about March 20 to capitalize. If anything, the relaxation of the Arctic cold may put us in the game for more snow events, though it'll come with mix and cutting risk.

Need a Montreal Express hit. I've never seen the CT River this frozen over at this particular location. Let's load up and then get a massive spring flood. In all seriousness though, there are parts of the river upstream near the Bulkeley Bridge that I'd bet are crossable on foot (obviously will not attempt). Pretty wild.

Such a fantastic gif lol

It’s over. Above 32°.

What’s your lowest recorded temperature up there?

Sorry to hear it. How much on the season so far?

They all need a different set of circumstances to produce? Except maybe Atlantic Canada? I agree it’s not just one thing, and overall it’s balanced itself out this season. Our big dog screwed the south in snowfall. Their weekend storm screwed us. Mid-Atlantic was cashing in during part of December when we weren’t. We cashed in when they didn’t around Christmas. And the new year. We always want to maximize our potential and while I’m not sure if we did in the snow department in our backyards we definitely did in the east at large. Many are ahead of snow climo to date at the moment along with the coldest temperatures in recent memory. It’s not A+, but it’s not a D or F either. If we get skunked from here on out that’s a different story.

Low of 1.4° here at WXW1. -15.1 at WXW2. Seven straight days below zero there.

One storm does not represent a paradigm shift. Nothing comes easy (still).

By my count, and I do not claim to be nearly as competent as the great @donsutherland1 and @ORH_wxman, through 1/31 both BDR and BDL are experiencing their coldest (by avg temp) start to winter since 2011. Both stations just edge out 2018, and of course neither count February since it hasn't happened yet. That's very impressive to me. Maybe more impressive is the inland streak with temperatures below 25. Looking back, that 1961 period is just outrageous.

Let's see I finished last season with **checks notes** 19.8". Eff last year.

Bring it. We want that.
