    Look at that ORH icestorm . And no one knows it’s coming if they’re not reading here 

    *** Here's a snippet from my late morning update to my Aubuchon Hardware Group across VT/NH/ME; an hour later I expanded concern into northern Mass...

    HEAVY TO LOCALLY EXCESSIVE SNOW AND ICE ACCUMULATION POTENTIAL CONTINUES TO SEE INCREASED MODEL SUPPORT…

     

    VERY CONCERNING TREE DAMAGE / POWER OUTAGE POTENTIAL IN PLAY FROM CENTRAL NY ON NORTH AND EAST ACROSS PORTIONS OF VT, NH AND INTERIOR MAINE…

     

    Discussion:  If anything, the outlook for widespread heavy to locally excessive snowfalls and ice accumulations has grown even more worrisome with almost universal model support.  While I think the modeling may still be a bit over-blown, even if the totals are only 80% of reality, they still suggest a widespread damaging heavy snowfall and ice accumulation event late tonight and Saturday for many areas along and either side of the axis depicted on the snowfall map below.  LONG DURATION OUTAGES A DISTINCT POSSIBILITY???

  2. If the modeling is close to correct for portions of VT/ NH/ME, the darkness that follows this storm will blow away the total eclipse many times over! Instead of 2 to 3 minutes of totality it will be a long duration power outage event!!!

    Ha! In all seriousness though, that really is an awesome view, and nice neighborhood too! For some reason I always forget how hilly Connecticut is, even just west of Hartford. I should probably drag the chairs out to the decks today too - they aren't Adirondack chairs though!

    Technically in Hartford county but I'm within a few hundred feet of the Litchfield City line.  These are the highest buildings lots in Hartford City.  Stay well and get those chairs out!

    Incredible view, but I really doubt you can see the Adirondacks from Connecticut, even at 1140 ft! ;)

    Lol... I assumed everyone would know I was talking about the chairs but as soon as I hit submit I thought there would be a couple of replies about the Adirondacks looking less impressive... Lol... That view is east of the Berks closer to Mtn. Tom area...

    Whoa! This one means business . One we will remember 

    Not sure how far south core of the strongest winds will build?  Northern CT / MA border air could be the southern limit, but it's a fluid setup and could come further south.  NY site I referenced had 4 gusts; 55, 62, 66 and 72!!!
