Damage In Tolland Posted March 28, 2012 Author Share Posted March 28, 2012 Nice call! While technically a bust..I meant that areas that are driest YTD are pike south..not that areas south of pike are driest today..though i can see how that would be misconstrued Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mayjawintastawm Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Got to like troughy nature next couple of weeks to give us rounds of precip and less Sahara DP's like yesterday. Spring brush fires happen every single year even in wet ones, last year was calm in comparison, this year is active. They are not whole Forest fires though, brush and debris, good for nature. Look at SW of Denver for real fires that destroy homes etc, ours are nuisance. Yeah, you'll prob be OK in a week or so. Only scary thing about SNE is population density. Here (metro Denver) we would absolutely die for 0.3" QPF- rain, snow, frogs, whatever. Last 0.1" or greater was Feb 3rd and we are about to record the driest March on record (0.03) with an average temp likely in the top 5. 70 F T/TD spreads have become common. The fire near here is somehow not growing much which is incredible news, but if winds become more consistent and/or stronger again, look out. Much more densely populated areas are about 10 miles to the north or east. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Modfan Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 <p> spring in NE as uusal Yes...Usually mid April to beginning of May is when I expect things to happen; wonder if this year will be the same with the potential for early green up?? The grass and bushes are sprouting, but trees IMBY are still very early in the budding stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damage In Tolland Posted April 2, 2012 Author Share Posted April 2, 2012 Danger WEEKEND... SFC HIGH PRES BUILDS SWD INTO NEW ENGLAND AS THE MID-UPR LVL RIDGE IS SHUNTED EWD INTO NEW ENGLAND. LOOKING AT A MODERATING TREND WITH NW WINDS DIMINISHING AND WAA PROCEEDING ACROSS THE RGN. WILL PREVAIL MOSTLY CLEAR CONDITIONS WITH TEMPS WARMING PER EACH PD AS SLY FLOW INCREASES ACROSS THE RGN. MIXING LIMITED TO H9 WHERE H925 TEMPS AROUND +6C SAT AND +10C BY SUNDAY. AN ABUNDANCE OF DRY AIR ACROSS THE RGN AND LOW-LVL MIXING TO H9 WILL CONTINUE TO PROMOTE THE MIX-DOWN OF MOMENTUM AND DRIER AIR TO THE SFC. THERE WILL REMAIN FOR THE PD A CONCERN FOR ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS FAVORABLE FOR FIRE WX SPREAD...ESPECIALLY AS MUCH OF THE WEEK PRIOR WILL BE DRY ASIDE FROM THE SYSTEM PRESENTLY EXITING OFF THE NEW ENGLAND SHORELINE.
