This warmth is not relegated to sw ct, in fact as you alluded to back in March the heat was centered up by you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a bit more in spots. I did think south coast would get a bit more, but tstms went a little more south towards LI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 what a run for warm weather lovers, when does it end? The month may end up above normal, but there's been no torch for the past 2 weeks. Recently to end April, I've had two days with snow on my car below 1,000ft and 5 straight nights in the 20s, highs in the upper 30s to mid 40s. Now its near 40F and raining. I can't believe I haven't broke out the shorts yet with this epic torch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 Everyone bash KFS now..It missed amounts by .10-.20. It apologizes for such a bad forecast Well that's a big margin when the total QPF was only going to be 0.25-0.5". You saying you wouldn't bash the GFS if it forecast 2-4" while the EURO had 4-6" of snow in the winter? You end up with 5", well the GFS was only off by an inch or two, and 0.1-0.2" QPF.... you sure wouldn't be giving it props, just dry humping the EURO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 NYC was chilly comparatively speaking...April featured a +1.8 there. Most spots here were 2.5-3.5 it appears. BOS torched comparatively. A step down from the incredible + departures for sure, as the last 10 days have been pretty chilly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 LOL. Dude you are in northern VT. SNE and CNE were an absolute blowtorch through 4/21 with desert dry conditions What are you talking about? Absolute blowtorch through 4/21? It was a blow torch for ONE week from April 14- April 21. Aside from that it was a 'normal month' and the last week of the month has been solidly below normal. Its been the same up here. I don't know why you guys have this idea that April has been a wall-to-wall torch. You take out that one 7-day period and it may even be below average the rest of the time. The bottom line is also that the past 9 days have been steadily below normal. I know you like to say since I'm in Northern VT it couldn't possibly reflect the pattern down there in SNE, but snow this time of year as low as it was, is not normal. It takes a below normal airmass... you were not torching while it snowed up here. That is reflected by BDL being solidly below normal these past 9 days. BDL ORH Don't want to cloud the discussion with facts, but this never-ending torch or all torches that some of you keep talking about, just hasn't been there this month aside from 1 seven day period. Keep riding that one week though and ignore the last 9 days. I can see how METS get frustrated trying to show that a pattern change has taken place when some just keep saying its an all-out torch. If you can't see the change between April 14-21 and April 22-30 then, well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damage In Tolland Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 You know better than to use that. So far it seems to match up with what some folks are reporting on here. MPH had .53 and it shows that..

I won't know till I get home what I had..Let's see some other ground reports I think 0.5" give or take 0.1" will do it. Pretty much as planned except south coast just missed out on heaviest rains. Actually rt 2 corridor may have the most..as models as a mini max there with the rains moving in due to the mid level warm front around dawn.
