The posters that live in that area post about it all the time. There’s several of them . And they all are very scarred by it happening multiple times. I would be too. It’s a bad feeling
But there’s been numerous other events where that area gets screwed “ relatively speaking” . It’s been a very real phenomenon. They do much better on your typical Nor Easter’s that move quickly
I guess I don’t mean all of RI. The NW hills there that border CT like Burrilville can do well . I’m referring more to Warwick / PVD .. even over to TAN. Those low , flat swampy lands don’t do well with deep inflow
Yeah those weird SW or w flow events seem to overperform but like you said .. it’s not often you see those . Anything with deep E inflow screws areas to the east in RI , but it hits the hills and wrings it out
I do well here on easterly inflow events. This area of CT is notorious for maxoout in those.. like that Morch storm in 14 that screwed RI. I’ve noticed it with rain events too .. most recently the one a few weeks ago
Normally they start coming down mid Aug and by this point they’re pelting off everything. Looking up you don’t see any . Such a relief not having to worry about cleaning those up in addition to multi weekly leaf cleanups
No acorns this year to speak of other than 1 Oak . And even that is dropping only a couple. It’s been several years at least since we haven’t had heavy heavy acorns.
