Yes sir. I worked as an intern with the RI state climatologist and was really educated on RI climate. Another reason you see some bigger totals in SE Mass during dying clippers is often OES follows in EMA
This week? Yea its thaw week ya know the one we have just about every year in Jan. Cheer up your time is coming. Patience grasshoppers is so apropos this year. Its only week 2 of 12 week season
All this year events were shredded by the time the reached RI. I looked thru all your historical snows over 12 inches and there isn't many standing wave issues. Also seasonal shows exactly what influence the big pond has. Western CT has buffer.
It is always a ball reading the doom and gloom posts during the Jan thaw as we enter the best period of the winter for climo snow. You know who you are.
