Sugarloaf1989 Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 at least it's a good week to take down xmas lights +1 I am counting down the days until the snowcover is gone from my front lawn to take all the Christmas stuff inside. Sunny and warm weather will make that task alot easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damage In Tolland Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Pretty much going as planned though, lets hope the return goes as planned.only thing not planned by me and some others was 55/55 air assault. I thought we could avoid that and hope we still can but fading for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TalcottWx Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 It's going to be mild everywhere. You will be lucky to keep a snowpack and I really doubt many will. It's not the end of the world, winter will roll forward afterwards. Everyone is near average with snow (cept coastal areas).this just isn't one of our top of the line winters. Its lining up to be average. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The overall pattern looked bad for a prolonged period of time which would have done its damage anyways. That's why when some of us mentioned it looked pretty ugly...we weren't doing it because we were worrying too much.....we saw the evil lurking.

joey2002 Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 After digging out from this morning's snowstorm, I took a drive over to our local lake in Bolton. We walked out onto the ice of Middle Bolton Lake after seeing a fisherman leaving for the day and telling us the ice was 4-5" thick. This is my first time out on this lake and there where several folks out skating on the far shore and alot of ice fishing holes bored into the ice from previous fishing. This lake is relatively high in elevation at 700' so it is a bit colder than Coventry Lake which still has alot of open water at this point in time. Great pictures, but be careful on lakes around here, especially in the coming days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ESP for someone who seems to enjoy snow and winter like you do . I cant remove the hundreds of feet of extension cords I have in my yard with ice and snowcover, not unless I risk breaking them. January thaws are a fact of life, snow and ice will surely be back after this warm-up. It's not the end of the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weathafella Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 ?? I'm basically saying that for me to get ave snowfall. Ie 50-51 inches, that late jan to late feb is gonna have to throw up a 30+ spot. For ave, not epic You like Kevin wrt march? It's can easily be 20+ for you.

Yep and now that it's settled time to concentrate on the arrival of good. The day to day details of a thaw are in doubt but now that there is light at the end of the tunnel and it's the bright light of serious winter. Looks awesome, looking forward to it. ENS are consistent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugarloaf1989 Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Great pictures, but be careful on lakes around here, especially in the coming days. Yeah, I wouldn't go out on any ice past wednesday, but ice is resilient stuff and 4-5" of ice is plenty strong to walk on. I follow the local ice fishing forum to judge what's safe and what's not. Usually we are up at Mashpaug Pond, but it's been cold enough here so far for lake ice walking. It' will probably be 2-3 weeks before it's safe again around here with the thaw incoming.

N. OF PIKE Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 You like Kevin wrt march? It's can easily be 20+ for you. I'm talking ave. I have 8.5. + (30+) say 33 equals 41.5 add another 8.5 for morch (which is prob better than ave) and u get ave snowfall if u throw in a inch or two for april. Basically all I'm saying is late jan to late feb has to put up a big number to get an ave winters snowfall in my town. No epicness, no snowless march. Its not difficult number crunching Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clinch Leatherwood Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Pattern is loading on the euro ens 15th and 16th but that initial push is going way west of us. We'll be on the edge, probably means good things for CNE/NNE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
