    NNE Warm Season Thread

    in New England

    Posted

    3.48" precip for July, mostly falling in 3 events (1.01" on the 6th, 0.98 on the 11th, and 1.02" on the 22nd/23rd).

     

    I don't keep temp records, but the PWM ASOS is 3.5mi away and had its warmest July on record and warmest month ever on record.

    Finally got my hands on some BB @OceanStWx @Damage In Tolland.  Good stuff.  I was shocked how cheap it was relative to stuff around me. $13 for a 4 pack is unreal.  I’m used to $18-20+.  I also had a micro from fryeburg that was awesome.

    We definitely benefit from the amount of competition up here.  Plenty of options here that would make it on their own as #1 in most smaller markets.  More options = the price stays low.

    My favorite beer, Epiphany (Foundation) is $14 and always available at retail and the brewery.

    If you venture out to Industrial park, be sure to make the rounds at Foundation, Definitive, Austin Street, and Battery Steele.

    Lone Pine and Liquid Riot are also top-notch.

    A large part of the NNE population is trying to figure out how to melt this snow as fast as possible, ha.  The "normal" folks are so far over winter they can already see summer.  

    And yes, you guys make the bucks in the financial sectors and stuff like that... then load that money into your car, drive it up here, and dump it into a big pile of dollar bills in the center of town and everyone comes out to grab a share of it.  That's basically the tourism industry in a nutshell when you really dumb it down :lol:.

    Empty the suitcases of money, fill them up with 4-packs of Double IPAs.

    Same in PWM, just moreso in the Summer vs. Winter.

    6.8" brings me to 63.5" for the season.

    I honestly may be in the best spot for snowfall while still be in the city limits of PWM (running 5" ahead of the official city obs). The way the coastal front sets up I'm about as far away as one can get in town.

    Agreed, and your tiny bit of elevation helps too.  I didn't see a total (PNS) from the ASOS on the Saturday event - does that mean it's not counted in the official PWM seasonal total?  I'm pretty much in-line with them on the season although many events we've had minor differences.

    9.5" is my biggest storm. Would be nice to double digit, but wouldn't be surprised at all if this one hooks more right. Certainly been the trend to underperform this season

    Pretty incredible that we have avg snowfall but no double digit events.  I guess wait and see on this one.

    My largest was 7.0" on 11/20 here in SoPo.  I think PWM grabbed 7.7" on 2/13.

    Our season of nickels and dimes continues. Right around average seasonal snowfall without any one storm over 6”.

    11/20, 1/20, and 2/13 were over 6".  Not by much, though.  No events over 8" so far.

    What does it tell you that there were a combined 13 posts between the discussion and event threads from the 00z models?

    It tells me tonight's event is meh for about 80% of the board, and most with a brain aren't invested in day 8 solution.

    Post counts are definitely factored into forecasts and even verification, though, so I totally get your concern.

    Portland Public Schools also closed. Temp has risen to 24 here on the island. Sleet line has crossed into southern York County. Should hit this area in less than 2 hours. Plow crews not so happy.

    Welcome aboard.  Nice to have another poster from the area!
