moneypitmike Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 He's clueless about life in GC. Heading out soon. Colrain is serious farmer/hippie country still. We, live on the border of Greenfield and E. Colrain and there are some folks up in them hills that you hardly see down in civilization. Mayor Moonbeam. LOL to the above. Little sick of the rain at this point. We are thinking of heading to the GArlic festival in Orange later but I'd rather note tote the baby around in cool, sheet mist. Head to the Festival of the Hills down in Conway. Make it an enjoyable drive by heading up to Shelburne and heading down Bardwell's Ferry Rd. That'll bring you past Cosby's place and across an awesome bridge that crosses the Deerfield connecting Shelburne/Conway. Then, take your first left onto Reeds Bridge into Conway center. Be careful of the bears. 51* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon Tip Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 The GFS and Euro look absolutely beautiful for Columbus Day weekend. Wall to wall sun and back to above normal temps. 80s make a return? Yes ...indeed, commented on this yesterday in my weekly ignored post... I also haven't noticed anyone paying any attention to the next 4 days worth of events but this is pretty spectacular - Areas of NF could very well be afflicted by a TC 24-30 hours out and just another 36 hours later those same areas could be whacked by the season's first coastal N/A stem-wound cold core bomb with blue snow. That is some pretty fantastic Meteorology there. It may not be exact geographically, but very close! Imagine getting a TC then a snow storm within 3 days of one another...? wow.

There are plenty of historical references made to October gales that were clearly tropical in nature, but I don't recall any where there were back to back events within 36 hours where tropics and winter french kissed like that.

CoastalWx Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 BTW it appears the euro op will completely mutilate the GFS from last week with this next cold shot during mid week.

There are plenty of historical references made to October gales that were clearly tropical in nature, but I don't recall any where there were back to back events within 36 hours where tropics and winter french kissed like that. Haven't there been hurricanes that brought NE snow on the backside? Original Snowicane from 1804 "In New Haven, Connecticut, a total rainfall accumulation of 3.66 inches (93 mm) was reported.[5] After the storm became extratropical, Litchfield reported 3 inches (76 mm) of snow, while Goshen reported one foot (305 mm). Rhode Island experienced stronger winds than ever remembered in Providence.[5] In Massachusetts, 5-14 inches (127–356 mm) of snow was the average snowfall from the gale. But the Berkshires of Massachusetts reported two to three feet (610–910 mm) of snow. In Salem, 7 inches (178 mm) of rain was reported, more than ever before in a 24-hour period.[5] The Gale of October 1804 was the worst tropical cyclone to affect Salem;[5] it is not known if that record has been lost. The roof of the South Church in Danvers was lost. In Peabody, over 30,000 unfinished bricks were ruined. Many buildings in Boston were destroyed, and one person died because of fallen roofs. Several ships in Boston's harbor were wrecked, causing loss of life.[6]" Pete was posting totals back then I guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
