Would have been better had I switched to JFK terminal.

Rotation in CT...between Woodbury Center and Bethlehem Village 

That one is clear. Damn

Took a bit but there was a pretty nasty little couplet and a decent little inflow notch 

Have an image? I can't see it on mine. 

TOR Warning for just for northern areas of NYC (Bronx, Yonkers, New Rochelle, etc.)

Feels like a summer thunderstorm coming (just 30 degrees cooler to start). Wind has been really picking up the last half hour and getting pretty dark out. 

Wow. Looking interesting.

Pretty amazing. Noticed a similar difference in 200' vs 700' around here. 

Wow. Pushing 7" in Goshen, MA. They are at about 1500'. 

Still cranking and radar looks like a ways to go. Liking it.

About 2" of absolute paste, none of roads/driveways and still going. Snow this morning, boat tomorrow. Love it.

41*

What a band running just north of Binghamton SE down to Fishkill. 

BOX tosses south for eastern areas.

You need to lower that elevation in your signature then.

He always leaves out those hills in Killingly Woodstock Sterling that have excellent elevation in his broad brush maps. I understand though as anything Neast of IJD is dragon country for city kids. Lol just kidding Ryan. But that's tough to delineate on a made for TV map.

Warnings up for Berks and Worcester Hills.

This is great

 

 

Rookie question, I remember a topic on here at times has been the best is 30-50 miles N/NW of modeled. Still apply?

I was surprised to see the Burlington NWS forecast for southern VT being higher than most models. Would feed into that idea.

Every piece of guidance has trended south and colder to Euro today for a pike south jack 

colder =/= jack

Looks like the HRRR trending colder for central CT and up the valley.

The NAM I feel has been pretty consistent with this...quite similar to the Euro. I was buying this pretty good which is why I went aggressive with my map yesterday. Been pretty impressied with the NAM soundings at BDL

 

But ma sun angle!  All seriousness I absolutely agree with this. I wouldn't be surprised to see Norfolk,CT report 8-10" and Massif north to the Hub doing 6-8".

Something like a EURO/RGEM/GGEM/NAM blend?  The 12z GFS looks sort of like the odd one out.

 

And for once it looks the most logical by typical systems.

Nice fat flakes falling.

Hickory and hophornbeam must be close and maybe Osage orange, though different sources show different relative BTU levels.  Black locust offers rot resistance equal to cedar plus lots more strength.  Not native to the Northeast but planted (and naturalized) in many places.

A great site for firewood geeks.

For heat output and seasoning times nothing compares to ash or birch imo. Easy maul splitting as well.

Make for great firewood, but man are they splintery when you split them.

I would take that over trying to split steel wool AKA elm.
