CT Valley Snowman

90 here in Enfield.

https://www.cnn.com/2019/06/22/us/new-hampshire-accident-motorcyclists-pickup-truck/index.html Awful accident up in the north country in Randolph, NH. Terrible

I actually think he's a but higher than BDL but I'm a bit lower than the airport . He's a couple miles further east in Enfield where the elevation climbs above 200' whereas my area is like 150' and the airport is about 175'. Regardless it's all a torch zone. South winds never really knock the temps down this far north in the state until late in the day if at all. Many days in the spring and early summer on a southerly or southwesterly flow the warmest temps on my rides home from the the coast are usually from Windsor/Windsor Locks and points north into the Enfield area .

Nice little banding feature heading towards Eastern Connecticut, shouldn't be more than a spot shower.

I'll take Monday please. No need messing up big Father's Day outdoor plans here.

Anyone know if there is a link for Maine lake temps other than Sebago lake? I know water temps are running cold. Heading up there in less than a month and would like to follow the progress of the temps. I jumped in the water in early May right after the dock got installed at my parents camp it must have been high 30's or so at Flying Pond just west of the Belgrade Lakes.

82.3

Low of 38.7.

It was about 80-82 on Most PWS around Enfield but downtown Springfield was possibly a bit warmer. Definitely a nice warm day.

Thanks to all who paid the ultimate price for freedom. We can never repay or be grateful enough so we honor, remember. and respect. Hope everyone enjoys the COC weather on Memorial Day.!!

38.5 on the season here. 10 more for climo. Not likely but certainly a chance given the LR look after next week.

4.5 driveway, 4.75 -5 colder surfaces.

Its ripping pretty good here again. Definitely straddling the better bands.

4.2 here moderate snow and still snowing. 6-7 is reasonable. Best banding will skirt S and E of here.

Gfs looks meh. Goodbye and Goodnight.

That's reasonable, I would think the better banding potential is over eastern ct where I could see a spot 7-8. Sometimes the banding pushes just a bit farther west than the models indicate but 2-4 is a reasonable call.

You need to really look more carefully especially across the interior zones. I'm thinking best chance of warning amounts are in southern and eastern ct, ri and southern and eastern ma mainly south of the pike and 84. Probably 2-5 further west tapering down even further up into the Rt 2 corridor west of ORH county.

I'm at about 28", haven't been involved this year but sugarloafer has been representing Enfield well. First time I can recall being ahead of DIT this late in the season. He'll probably pull ahead with some type of late season elevation event but who knows.

Man the storm sucked here but 2.9 is ridiculous. You need to check the time stamp on that. 4 is the absolute minimum I could see posted here and 5 is more realistic. BDL came in at 7 and there was better banding west of the river but I would toss the 2.9

GFS was actually pretty decent here. Terrible elsewhere. I think the banding setup just killed us and this was not just a function of elevation. If the storm track was a bit closer to the coast we would have gotten into the CCB but being between the western deform bands and the CCB combined with the valley and time of day was just a killer. We probably would have done better with the prior tracks that were a bit further offshore as well. Anyways Congratulations to Ray and all the big winners tonight. A historic night for some and one helluva storm. Can't say we haven't had our share of tracking to do here in this action packed March.

Not using a board here so I suppose official totals would a bit more. Current depth is 4.2. .4 new past hour. I'll go with a 5 spot. Official protocol may have been closer to 6 here with board/clearing etc,. but I'm usually not around during an entire storm.

I'll go with 4.5 here, current depth is 3.8 after melting, sublimation etc. Steady light snow.

For every 10 storms around here it seems as though 6-7 underperform, 2-3 meet expectations, and 1 suprises and that might be generous. I can't blame the western mass guys out of Springfield for being so conservative sometimes. It's usually a zero sum game around here. Either the CCB banding parks itself right overhead or we get a perfect deform for hours or things just crap out and it's arctic sand and when temps are marginal early and late season there is no margin for error. . With most of the biggies it seems as though the beginning of the storm usually starts slow and you feel behind the 8 ball trying to catch up. Just about at climo for the year now so I guess I should be grateful for that.

4 total here so far. Back to flurries. Meh.
