Damage In Tolland

I already have a very disturbing mental picture . They have not been washed since maybe last winter. Greasy fingerprints all over inside all of the windows , the front windshield on the inside has never been wiped with a dry cloth so when driving into the sun , there’s such a thick film on it that it’s very difficult to see , almost like a fog ..smashed and ground in Cheerios and food on carpets.. all kinds of sand and salt residue littering floor mats and carpets, crushed crumbs all over the seats in the crevices of the leather, dashboards so dusty the children were taught how to write the alphabet, the rims so filthy with black brake dust the rims looks dull and faded, tires that have never been shined and are cracked and sun damaged , and probably a bunch of empty coffee cups, water bottles and loose change all caught between the seats and the console . I would be willing to bet that description is very close to reality

One and done?

Yes absolutely. That’s a good one. I’ll also add freshly mulched beds in the spring

Three things in life that are so satisfying 1) Admiring the lawn after a fresh mowing especially in May into June 2) Admiring freshly and exquisitely sculpted snow banks after shoveling 3) Admiring freshly washed , waxed and shined up vehicles

He’s been singing since December

Wash those cars while the kids are out there ! Wipe down all that dust and fingerprints and snot from sneezes off inside windows,, shine the tires and clean the brake dust off the rims. Go go go

3 washed and shined vehicles already . One more to go this afternoon!

Spring . It’s been a spring winter

Torch!!

Rain rain, go away, we know you’re coming the next day

I saw they were both close to or at 4” needed to not have the least snowiest winter ever . When I saw that, and how the winter futility has gone , pattern persistence and my view of what I see the pattern looking like thru Morch 31.. that is why I made the bet . Maybe it was foolish .. it’s not like I am rooting against snow. No one is a bigger snow lover than me .. I just see a favorable pattern thru end of Morch of more futility .

The bet I thought I made was that both needed to measure 4” for Ginx to win. That was what I thought the bet was . I wouldn’t have made it for just ORH

The bet is both ORH and BDL. ORH couid get a 3 foot storm .. but if BDL doesn’t get 4”.. the bet is won. You act as if this is what I want or am rooting for . I want snow . I want to lose. But I also feel very confident that we are done

And even in a snowy winter.. that # always means 0. You’d want to see a mean of 8-10 to expect a chance of 1-3

Well no. It will get Uber dry starting in Napril. Very hot dry summer with huge dews in Aug- Sept

Good luck man . Gonna need it

Just can’t take anymore rain . Another 2 months of it

The story of the winter . Rain Precipitation-wise, rainfall will be the favored type. Still looking at late Tuesday into Tuesday night as an opportunity, when a shortwave and weak cold front move across southern New England. Late next week looks complicated. One low pressure should move through the Great Lakes into northern New England late Thursday into Friday, dragging its associated front through our region. A second low pressure may then develop along the first cold front off the NJ/DE coast sometime Saturday. Am not expecting it to be raining the entire time Thursday into Saturday, but do not have enough confidence to pinpoint when those breaks might be at this juncture.

Why do you think I made the bet with Ginx in late Jan no less? As a seasoned New England vet. I can look at a general pattern along with persistence and a little gut feeling .. and I know when it’s over. Climo may argue it’s early to call it, but there are some years you can see and know it’s over . This os one of those

Get after it and skate!

Snowy area there Unlike Simsbury

It was fun . Modeling did very well in general . I’d have preferred a historical snowstorm over this though
