Damage In Tolland Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 I found the text/ zone forecasts on the website thankfully. Those point and clicks are hideous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moneypitmike Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 I found the text/ zone forecasts on the website thankfully. Those point and clicks are hideous Looks to me like they're where they had been--link from below the p/c. I like the zone, too. My only gripe with them is they don't put in amounts of progged rainfall. Not sure why--it's a useful to have in a forecast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT Rain Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 I found the text/ zone forecasts on the website thankfully. Those point and clicks are hideous I think the ZFP is totally computer generated - no human input. Not sure why you even bother with those.

moneypitmike Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 No they said the P and C are all computerized. Zones are done by living people That was my impression as well. That's why they the p/c will have crazy things like "rn/sn between 3am and 4am, and sn from 4a.m. to 6;am then rn after 6a.m." At least that's what I thought.

CT Rain Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 No they said the P and C are all computerized. Zones are done by living people No. As far as I know the P and C are from the human manipulated grids... while the ZFP is just a "summary" of the P and C with virtually no human intervention.

Sugarloaf1989 Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 The guy that owns a house down the street from me on Route 31, is shoveling the snowpiles on either side of his driveway that are in the shade, into the sunny parts to get it to melt. The snow piles are about 2' tall and 4-6' long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherwiz Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 It felt GREAT yesterday walking from the bar to the Wolf Pack game and not having to freeze and dress like an Eskimo. This afternoon, after my 1:15 class gets out at 3 I can't WAIT to walk to Burger King and grab lunch before my 5:30 class...it's going to be awesome out.

Pretty solid looking evidence. However, 8/2/75 was so hot all over Maine that I find it easy to believe in its scorchicity elsewhere in New England. Hottest ever for PWM, BGR, BHB, HUL, missed by 1F at CAR, hottest since July 1911 in the foothills, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is that 100-102 is more accurate. Most of their max temps seem to be 3F to 7F too warm (cloudy vs sunny) that month compared to the stations above.

No arguments here, as NNE record heat rarely translates to SNE records. I know that the -35 reported from Chester, MA as a state record has been disqualified. Is that location's 107, also on 8/2/75, still valid or was it bogus as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
