  1. I was probably a bit harsh. They’re volunteers. I’m not sure where exactly the obs were taken. You can see the estimated liquid equivalent in the forms though.
  2. We live in New England. It can snow in crap patterns and rain in good ones. I don’t think saying the pattern looks poor for the next couple of weeks is saying it can’t snow. It’s just saying the odds are against anything substantial.
  3. I prefer to talk science with reality...not stubborn optimism.
  4. Their COOP forms were always a joke. Everything was always rounded off and you can tell they estimated the liquid equiv. Like oh this is fluff so we’ll call this 12” 0.60”. Or this is a heavier fluff we’ll call it 15” 1.50”. Just lazy. Then in the comments they never mention rain in even the cuttiest of cutters...but they never failed to mention flurries. It looked like reports on their site. Hopefully BTV told them to pound sand.
  5. Hillary Andrews just left the board
  6. Congrats BTV on the high of 65F today. CAR breaks their old record by 9F.
  7. Front just roared through. As for CAR...just noticed they had their first ever Nov 70s this year and their first ever Dec 60s as well. Lots of record highs up there the past 2 months.
  8. It’s been done when they back in like that and turn from rain to snow. But the GFS struggles at 24hr so I’m not going to get emotional either way over 246hr.
  9. Next hour CAR should be warmer than EYW.
  10. Nice. More snow for the chickens so far than Sugarbush.
  11. The problem is a wave of low pressure formed on the front and really inverted the whole system. So up here it slowed and down south it accelerated...hence why we’re going to be getting the front and caa from the SW. It’s not as if the fronts up here are always slow...we can rip them through too. We’ve just had some exceptionally bad cutters lately. Plenty of winter to go though. We’ve rocked the 2nd half after a crap first half before (not that it’s been crap here).
  12. There’s a lot of brightbanding right now on the edge of the beam.
  13. Let me rephrase that...lol. Cutters can happen all season. But they don't look the same later in the season as they do now. We don't usually advect 50s dews up there later in Jan or Feb/Mar. It's more of a cold rain that does lesser damage.
  14. Eh...cutters happen. This one sucked for Christmas standards, but it's not like they're that unusual in Dec or the first half of Jan. They become climatologically rare for NNE after the middle of Jan, but this is like expecting the dews to have settled in by June 25th.
  15. 1/24/19? Got up to 52F here and had 1.58" of rain. Pack went from 11" to 7".
  16. Here's a little composite loop of the event.
  17. Awesome bird. Awesome pics. Just stay away from my chickens little buddy.
  18. If only we had a DGFS to run this out further.
  19. Never had so much fun snowblowing...even though it took a couple of passes.
