joey2002 Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Got home a little while ago and with all the talk of flowers, spring warmth and sunburns I thought I'd be able to have a catch and hit some fungos to the kids in the yard but when I got home I saw this?? Wow, you have way more snow than we do here... shade for the win? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dryslot Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 But this is high atop the lofty Mt. Tolland. These are the types of images we routinely see through June up there, right? In fact, isn't there a federal clause that you delay Memorial Day celebrations by a month? The thing that will suck the most over the next couple weeks is the amount of frost that we need to get out of the ground this year, It was deep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendrite Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 The Rev also picked the snowiest part of his street. I was hoping to see the snow cover of his front lawn...not the neighbor's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 I was hoping to see the snow cover of his front lawn...not the neighbor's. How is it up there? Sounds like a mid April ice out at the least. Maybe late month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 6" soil thermo has been flatlined at 32F for about 3 months. 06-07 was a different story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Downtown CON and the hills along I93 are torched, but we must still have 6-8" out there. Still lots of ice around parts of Winni. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Chaffin Pond still completely ice covered...I'm gonna take out the row boat tomorrow and have a picnic on the shoreline and then catch some nice bass since this torching spring weather should melt it out by noontime...I'll be sure to wear the mosquito repellent too. Should be swarms of them by dusk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what they are, they ones going psycho out here tonight are Spring Peepers. I just looked them up via the USGS frog call site. They start in early Spring. I am thinking it has something to do with the moon being out too. They are common after evening thunderstorms as well. Lived in NE and NY all my life, and never heard them this early. (If anyone wants to listen to them too, go here and select the name of the frog/peeper/toad and you can hear their noises. As you play it, picture yourself sitting next to an evening campfire in July, bottle of beer in hand.) http://www.pwrc.usgs.gov/frogquiz/index.cfm?fuseaction=main.lookup I imagine they would make good bass bait.

moneypitmike Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Went down to Hoyoke yesterday to pick up the car. Not sure at what point it happened, but at least by the time I was in Whately or Hatfield, there was not a patch of snow in the flats. For those of you who don't know The woods in the hills clearly had in those flat zones that look like mini-Nebraska, there was nothing. Unless by some fluke things play out with a couple inches next week, methinks the SNE snowpack will quickly be a memory--below normal temps be damned. It is what it is.
