WinterWolf Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 CT, while being a small state, has quite a few Micro-climates within it's borders. My area seems to be in a decent spot in that we tend to do well with both Miller A's and Miller B's. While I'm considered Western CT, I'm not that far west of the River, but still far enough away to not be in that Death Valley shadow either. Miller B's might be even a lil more prolific though...but we've done quite decently in Miller A's also. While my town does sit in a valley for the most part, it's an elevated valley where the lowest spots are still 200ft above sea level, and the higher spots in town are 400-600 ft. We do well in SWFE too. And I'm plenty far enough away from the shore so as not to get in on a lot of their Taint, but storms that graze south many times will hit us with something(Jan 2016, the Mid Atlantic Blizzard, we picked up about 9 inches..while places just north of here had 1-2 inches.) However if it's an elevation dependent set up that's where that hurts my town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not really a snowpack winter anyway with all the warmth. It's a snowpack winter in Maine..79" at Andover and 94" at Chimney Pond (2900').

Def looks like a return to more favorable pattern...but as usual, be leery of the cutter because we won't have any blocking on the Atlantic side...though if the AO tries to go more negative up near the pole, then that will help some and the Euro is trying to hint at that.

Ok, but what we have now is going to be most of what we receive this month. Warmth looks to dominate the rest of February. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, Bristol and Southington trade off many times. Blizzard of 96 was forecast to be south originally, and then at the last minute came up and rocked..but the 5-8 miles difference in latitude in the southern tracking systems(96, 2016 etc) can make a big difference in those types of events. And then sometimes Bristol will beat us out in certain systems. Last January's Blizzard(2016) once you went south of Southington the amounts increased dramatically as well, to 16-20 inches down at the coast and into Southwest CT. And yes, you are right, both locations are pretty decent in interior CT/Central CT for a variety of snow events. Can't really complain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
