Bostonseminole Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 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... I agree with you 100% focusing just on April, it really has not been a "torch" but rather nice, except for that one week. I am actually enjoying this spring so far, except for today.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOS had 4 -departures all month -3 -3 -4 -5 the rest were normal or above. dude we went over this on the board an air strip in the atlantic isn't the best representation of wx over SNE. i'm not out to get the warm wx fans...I ENJOYED the wx lol but really argue the BDL/ORH numbers u cant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 ? BOS had 4 -departures all month -3 -3 -4 -5 the rest were normal or above. You must have missed the discussion by Tip and others that the lack of on-shore winds skewed that... if the winds aren't coming from off the ocean, it doesn't matter the pattern, BOS will be above normal. But yes, lets use the one station on an airstrip that juts out into the Ocean to look at SNE temperatures instead of the stations inland like BDL and ORH. Most folks have more in common with BOS than BDL/ORH anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ctsnowstorm628 Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 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. 0.60-0.65" on all 3 stations including mine down in westbrook. Definitely more than what radar estimates are showing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am actually enjoying this spring so far, except for today.. Yeah I enjoyed the weather a lot, not trying to say I prefer cold this time of year (I only do if it snows)... but the posts from some about never-ending torches and stuff is just wrong after we go from a week of +15F departures to 9 days of -5F departures. Its not much below normal but its still 20F lower than where it was... that's a big change and not a "never ending torch." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thurs..looks showery later in the day with hopefully a big MCS at night setting us up for a hot,humid Friday I do think the valley gets into the 60s tomorrow and near 70 thursday. Friday I actually do think will be 75-80 and muggy as hell down in ct.

powderfreak Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 Idk PF weren't you supposed to stop skiing April 1 after that never ending freak warmth lol Haha yeah... but to be fair, this is the first May in 38 years that there will not be lift-serviced "open" skiing in Vermont. Of course we can always hike for it and they will, but this is the first year with no open ski area on May 1st in VT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friday we'll just need to make sure the w/f blasts north I think we will be nice around noon wih increasing clouds with maybe a stray shower toward evening. Thursday I think may bust low with thick overcast though...maybe 63-65? And yeah as long as the front blasts north ct will be in the warm sector. I'd feel better at DXR than your area though, but I do think most of ct sees mid 70s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
