hopefully we'll have a nice day or two next week between systems. Maybe Wednesday?

we can compromise. solid 85/65s with few excessive heat outbreaks, if any. But also no faux early fall cool shots. Good old fashioned summer wx wire-to-wire jja. Deal?

I don't see evidence of a cold and snowy Spring, yet. Especially sne. Rogue systems? Maybe

tried

Sunday night through Wednesday... A more robust areas of rain (and potentially interior snow) moves in overnight and during the early hours of Monday. This as a trough and sfc low cross well to our northwest (which limits cold air/snow potential outside of the higher elevations of the interior). Overall the flow pattern remains remarkably zonal and progressive which will minimize the time this or any subsequent systems impacts the region. Lots of details to be worked out but overall we will likely stay rather active next week with Monday`s system followed by a brief break then another system to follow, it not two more by mid week. Temperatures should remain quite mild/above average, in the 40s as the zonal flow precludes any intrusions of real arctic air.

you're forgiven

strawman

Thankfully only 23 days away from met Spring

Hopefully discussing upcoming nice wx isn't taboo any more

strawman arguments. Again, your is a good snowstorm and a few scraps away from average, no one should be talking like it's a shutout winter.

Foster RI, higher up and further inland than Sterling or whatever averages mid 50's or thereabouts. The vast majority of East central CT averages 40-50, which is what I am concerned with.

what is it this time? this is a light thread, nothing serious, I'm with it

Similar boat...before my back and hip injuries, as well as a 2nd operation on my right leg, I was hitting over 300 with a cheap steel taylor made. Hoping to play a little this year, though it's been around 10 years.

You average maybe 40-50" a year, you're at 21.1. That's one decent snowstorm and a few throw aways from average. Hardly a bad winter so far, definitely not great

exciting, pile it high

It's that time of year...we monitor and track https://www.pollen.com/forecast/extended/pollen/02115

Yeah you're in a relatively snowy spot this winter, decent elevation and maxing out the storms that we did get

i maintained a small glacial pile from 12/1 here but yeah, ugly stuff

right...and me wanting 50 in February is no different "trolling" than someone else wanting 70 for highs in July. And you know the ones. I think it's crazy to want 70 but trolling, probably not anyway the pattern looks like crap so there isn't much else to discuss.

If the summer is coc and 70's all July, for ex, should people be outraged and having fits?

If you are talking about CT, most areas only require one or two big snows to make an average winter. Outside of the high NW hills. It isnt like CT is a lock for winter wonderland every winter. Lol

I like winter, especially this one. With all the bickering and whining, seems like most everyone else doesn't like winter. Not sure why people spend days weeks months looking forward to it, hyping it even, just to cry about it for three months when it occurs
