It’s not normal to be the best of the season. There ms been years when it’s done mid Septorcher 

That best of season thing may have been just the very generous rain.

Those are Miller Meh’s here typically. Compares to the mid Atlantic anyways.

Feb 1983 and March 1993 would disagree w/ you.  I say we make a Miller "W" -- those storms that give the max S+ to w/in 5 mi of Weymouth only! 

Miller As can really tease the Mid-Atlantic weenies, esp. once you get S of DC proper.  How many times does it show 20"+ for RIC, and it ends up 3-4" of IP?  We don't have that high 1000-500 thk/very cold 850 issue "DA MIX" really in the NEUS.

Miller lite?

We need more Miller Cs!  Apparently, those are Sandy-type systems.  Hazel in 1954 and 1938 fall under that.  However, I have been unable to confirm if "Miller C" is a thing officially, but these are unique -- those systems that get a big boost from a TC phase and the TC itself gets the best of both worlds, derived energy from baroclinic and SSTs so they can remain atypical strong much farther N than you'd expect for a TC in our region.

Sandy buried WV up to 36" and up to 48" in VT from the 1804 hurricane and Ginny in 1963 w/ 13" in ME.  Double PT for @CoastalWx here!
