Cold Miser Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 New Euro looks wet, see what transpires the next few days. Hope all is well. Things are o.k. 4 nights away from home during the week isn't terrible. "Wet" entire weekend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT Rain Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 Massive massive flooding this weekend on Euro. Entire weekend is washout. Dendrites pumpkin prancing festival is ruined. Mustn't be looking at the Euro. Rain ends in CT by 12z Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoon Tip Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 +15 departures around D8 or 9 on this Euro run and the pattern extrapolation drills that almost equally negative 4 days later. Interesting. eh, it's more likely that the Euro is too far W with the trough prior to ejecting it E and that pumps heights biased on the high side, leading - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H2Otown_WX Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 I agree with that EPO ridge. I guess the question is how strong will it get, and how will the -PNA try to fight it off. That's the gradient pattern look we've been describing. The GFS obviously is quick to bring cooler air our way, but the EC and even Canadian are saying not so fast. But, the GEFS have won a few battle so maybe we'll see a couple of shots? And to be clear, this is after early next week when we mentioned we will probably cool down later in the week. The question is just how much. Do you think as the wavelengths lengthen it will help our cause as far as being close enough to the cold air source, provided we can keep the -EPO?

HoarfrostHubb Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 Perhaps the most extraordinary early-season snowstorm in New England history occurred on Oct. 9, 1804 when a hurricane roared ashore on Long Island, New York and then encountered an arctic air mass over southeastern Canada. The winds of the hurricane caused extensive structural damage from New York to Massachusetts (where the steeple of North Church in Boston was blown down). The rain turned to snow as far south as the Connecticut River Valley in Connecticut, where low elevation towns from here to the Canadian border received 4-6" of snow, and the higher terrain of Vermont up to three feet of accumulation. In Vermont, drifts buried fences and blocked roads. The Catskills of New York reported 12-18"; the Berkshires of Massachusetts received 24-30". Even coastal New Haven reported some snow (and 3.66" of rain). Reference: "Early American Winters: 1604-1820", by David M. Ludlum, American Meteorological Society, 1966, and "Early American Hurricanes, 1492-1870", by the same author Did the winter of 1804-05 blow?

Ginx snewx Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 Did the winter of 1804-05 blow? All the accounts I have found stated it was a long cold winter. In fact, "Harvesting natural ice became big business in New England during the 19th century. The birth of America’s large scale commercial ice industry began in New England in 1805. Frederick Tudor, a Boston merchant, created the first natural ice business in the United States. He shipped ice harvested on a pond in Lynn Massachusetts to the West Indies. Over the next thirty years Tudor made a fortune shipping ice around the world to places like Charleston, New Orleans, Cuba, Calcutta, South America, China and England. British records show that Queen Victoria purchased some ice from Massachusetts in the 1840’s." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 You gotta wonder ... if at some point in the last 2 million years of eastern North American history, just once did a full bird hurricane get sucked up into a bitter cold core full latitude hammer - just once. It's hinted at every year it seems. The big nor'easter of Dec' 2003, the CMC model sniffed that out at D9 as a just such a fusion of insane polarity. I think it stem-wound the bomb on down some 950mb and change, with snow on the western semi-circle. Push came to shove and while there was a TC, it stayed in the Caribbean then moved NE and out without getting involved with the westerlies like that. 2005... Wilma brought 2-3+ feet to the higher elevations of the Greens and allowed Killington to open half the mountain on natural snow in October. I think they got like 40" from the tropical mixed with cold. Mansfield had 33" and a solid 2 foot snowpack...only time I've skied the trees in October.

I think if we didn't have central heating and all the modern conveniences to deal with cold/snow we may feel the same way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No they are not, many entries of warm winters with open lakes and less fire wood needed. Following your reasoning all summers must have been hot.

Looks like S NH didn't go very long that warm season without seeing snow.http://www.nh-roots....ook/chap49.html May 8, 1804. Snow fell sufficient for sleighing; it lay on the ground two days; apple trees in full bloom.October 9, 1804. Snow fell two feet; the crops were unharvested; the leaves had not fallen from the trees and the hues of autumn were blended with the whiteness of winter.
