ChrisM Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Be afraid of the snow on top of my table. Still can't get over how little damage there was. 20" of powder, but still leaves. We had a dogwood tree snap Too bad you didn't get into that ripping deform band like me...probably could have kissed 30" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 3-4 days out when the euro had that, you wanted to say "no way." 36 hrs out when the EC and ensembles were lock and step with each other...you said "holy sh*t." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very likely you don't see anything close like that again. I can pretty much guarantee none of us ever see the likes of that again We were looking at Trick or Treat picks from last year the week after the storm (weird) and there was still a bunch OTG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, you will probably be right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginx snewx Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Probably the best fall foliage since 95. Totally awed in NH this weekend. Some great color near ORH on the way home too. Maple leaf disaster at home. 2-3 weeks ahead of last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Dual Pol kind of interesting out of CCX and ENX. Probably bright banding on the tilt one products NW of Albany. The precip shield depicted in VT from ENX radar definitely is snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sugarloaf1989 Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Look at my pics from the Oct storm. Plenty of leaves still on trees. He lives in a newer neighborhood where the soil is bad and it's mostly maples which drop early. Many trees still were partially leaved I live in a new community for sure and it was farmland up until about 1960, but the soil is not bad by any stretch, it's very fertile. The big difference is that North Coventry is mostly a new forest of non oak tree's and we are fairly high up at close to 1,000' so the foliage lets go here earlier than the surrounding area. My community had nearly 0% tree damage after the October snowstorm and I had no damage whatsoever.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just look at the pic he posted in last years thread of the power line on fire, there are no leaves on the trees there near his hood either, must be bad soil.

ChrisM Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Hey Scotty, it's 43 at my house at 53 in the CT Valley. Just wondering if it has anything to do with tree species. TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugarloaf1989 Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 While driving along the Mohawk Trail today the was a noticable amount of bare tree's above about 1,000' and this extended on for many miles regardsless of different tree species.

I was actually just going to ask why it was 25 on Mount Washington as there are no trees up there to regulate climate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Hawinton, CT....the new climate mystery. Tune in on Sunday at 9pm on the latest edition of NOVA as we interview ChrisM on why it snows more there than ORH county at 1000 feet and loses all their leaves by labor day.
