Our first torch of 2011 April 11-12th


Damage In Tolland

Recommended Posts

Man, some of those south coastal communities really got their rumps pumped by that cold ocean. I'm sitting here in Westborough at 77F, not 30 miles as the crow flies from PVD, which is stuck at 60. Westerly RI appear to have slipped into the upper 40s?

Newport RI (KUUU) is sitting at 47F right now. Good weather for dropping the toaster in the tub.

I would never live on the coast in SNE even if I loved the three months or so of nice seashore wx..... The rest of the year is just too abysmal. Changeovers to cold miserable rain the bulk of the time in the winter and this kind of ugly stuff into June sometimes......

Good lord!

Yeah, I lived in Rockport Mass for 1 year back in 1984-1985, and I remember a few days in May and June, where it was 77F at BED, ...meanwhile, shrouds of fog were coming in off the ocean and you had to wear a jacket. Life for the chosen coastal denizen is a full commitment. You have no expectations, you carry no illusions. It's a way of life, and if you are a Meteorologist, you're purview of interest pretty much stops at coastal flood and surf events, every 20 years a hurricane threat.

My snowbanks and existing drifts are getting gashed this afternoon. It was a good winter, but it's over. Time for it all to go.

It did go fast this afternoon, that's for sure. I noticed it even looking out my window from 2-5pm when dew points spiked into the mid 50s. The recent dry warmth wasn't doing too much damage, but this humid and wet stuff is the killer.

I agree, I love all wx but you should have put Wednesday in there if you are going say that. Personally heavy rain and 40s is fine with me, as is snow and 30F, or sun and 70. thumbsupsmileyanim.gifthumbsupsmileyanim.gif

It really is. I can send you pics if you want, but I'm sure your content waiting until you get home to see your brown snowbanks and grass greening. sad.gif

If your snow is gone, then the rest of sne is well into spring for sure. 40s/50s and rain is common spring wx.

That's a little harsh.lol I'd be happy if it snowed all year. Glad you're enjoying Spring. I'll be back soon, unfortunately, once I get home I'll start to come to peace with the passing of the '10-'11 Winter...... after a trip or two to Tuckerman's.

When you get back we should set up a sne golf day, some morning golf followed by a nice lunch and cold beer at the 19th hole! Safe travels

Eveidently there is still snow at my house but my Wife tells me (with glee) that it's on the way out slowly but surely. It's still very much a Winterlike scene. We flew over this frozen river in Willow that is used as a highway in winter. This is also the first leg of the Iditarod dog sled races.

I wonder if Ray has any piles left in his backyard swamp. At Megan's place in N Chelmsford, she still had a decent pile in the back of her place.

I lost the last of the snow on my 3 acres on Sunday.

A few spots in town that are on the north side of some pines still have piles.

My neighbor still has a huge 6' pile he made in the front lawn.

Stoopid mosquitos were out at the ballfield tonight.

I hate spring

I think coastal areas probably have the most interesting wx in the whole state. Sure they might not avg 80" of snow, but you have your share of good cstl storms with a variety of wx. I think some areas near in the interior run the risk of rare events like severe ice storms or the ocnl severe event, but how often do those happen?

Wow, thats awesome. Glad your still enjoying winter there. Well into spring, almost felt (gasp!) summer like today with a high of 73F. By tomorrow we'll be back into normal spring-like cool temps.

That sounds like an excellent idea, I'd be totally into that. I bet more than a few would sign on. The first annual SNE Invitational, with a cash prize of $100 and a really cool trophy.
