weathafella Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Incidentally Chicagoans presume we'll get their wx a day later. Today it happened. When I got here early evening yesterday it was quite balmy. Much cooler today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clinch Leatherwood Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Gee, I wonder who you were referring to. Someone in se Plymouth, I'll bet. Blah blah blah.... 55 at 1015 at night. High school kids are having fires on the beach....nice night. I anticipate the landscape will look like the closing scene from ice station zebra by Friday.

ORH_wxman Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Looks like interior elevations at least are good for 1-2" on the NAM...so something to watch. Models have been pretty consistent. I'm still pretty pessimistic, but its a nice shot of omega. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 FWIW, JB and Joe D. at Weatherbell seem bullish on more snow and cold. What the heck is Weatherbell? I'm sure its an interesting read, but I'm more wondering when JB and Joe D teamed up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HarveyLeonardFan Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 I went to work out at around 4pm today..temps were in the low 50s and you could feel the typical, cool early spring seabreeze compliments of the southerly winds. I walked out of the gym 90 minutes later and I was completely surprised that temps had spiked well into the 60s. It felt great, even though it was only for a brief period of time. In fact, because we only had the warm air for a limited period of time it didn't really help warm the house up because temps were spiking when the sun was setting.

powderfreak Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 new site, soon to be a paid one...meh Ahhh yes, so we can pay for someone to conjure up ways for a 12z GFS long range prog to work out, haha. All I know is that JB owes me about 600 inches from when I read him back in high school growing up in Albany. Every storm was the next great blizzard; it almost sounds as though he's toned it down a bit in recent years, but when he first came out with that "long ranger" video on Accuweather... man, you would've thought he was forecasting for the summits of the Cascades rather than the northeastern U.S. Back on topic... such an awesome long range pattern for the end of March on the model progs and ensembles. I'm actually starting to get a decent feeling that we should come out of this with at least one snow event, maybe two. I could see two measurable snowfalls, one plowable storm. The 12z GFS sends storm after storm out to our south out in fantasy land. Hopefully one of them can work out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My front door, which is metal and behind an all glass storm door, was hot to the touch this afternoon...

Logan11 Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 As far as I'm concerned the sun is unpleasantly strong from about late April through mid August. You sit in the car without the a/c on and fry, most activities out in the full sun have you sweating..... I can only bide the time till around August 15th when things get noticeably better. I'd get the heck out of here and go to Tasmania or something for those three months if I was independently wealthy of an affluent retiree.

New Zealand would make me happy those months I don't mind summer too much when I am not working... AC works, pool works. But I hate the bugs, humidity, allergies, etc. Oct-April is best Maybe Pete has land at 2K for not too much $$$.

Logan11 Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Mosquitos and ticks ,,,enough said.... I dread the first buzzing sound near my head one day in April probably. Pollen is awful also, but I moved to an area with no woods right near me so it's been a lot better than when I lived in the heavily wooded Hudson Valley. NZ has a few, shall we say, seismic risks ...so I went with Tasmania. New Zealand would make me happy those months I don't mind summer too much when I am not working... AC works, pool works.

Logan11 Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Pete's area is catering to the affluent types from BOS or NYC...who actually must recoil when they realize the winter wx they get at their 2K feet palace. I looked in far ENY near the MA/VT line etc. at first, but too pricey competing with those people...much cheaper out here. This 44 acres cost $75 k in 2004. Of course the per capita income is about half that of Berkshire County. New Zealand would make me happy those months I don't mind summer too much when I am not working... AC works, pool works.

CT Rain Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 3z SREF snow probabilities are surprisingly robust across most of CT/W MA for >1" of snow on Monday.
