Ginx snewx Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Man Harvey Leonard FTL talking about how we have an exactly normal April and ignoring the other New England climo stations. It really pisses me off when mets are disingenuous.especially since BOS is the only climo station in all of NE to be at normal or above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A couple of 35F in the southern White Mountains. 32F at the summit of Mount Washington. Of course this pales in comparsion to my 32F 3" Memorial Day snowfall last year.

dendrite Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 I'll take Novie over April. In November I'm ready for darkness, cold, and snow so the short daylight and step down I enjoy. In April I'm ready for warmth and unless we get a 2010 or 2012, I'm usually left disappointed. And like Kevin said, any snow we get in April just gets pissed away within a day or two.

dendrite Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 To each his own. We can get some decent events up here in the interior during the 2nd half of Nov. SWFEs start kicking up around then too. We had a good one in 2011 a little under a month after Halloweenie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of days when we're stuck in the 40s with drizzle and you climb into 70s with sun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I would point out how most of the region has changed in the last two weeks. Just like it would be unfair if BOS were -0.5 in the summer because of a feeble seabreeze yet every other station were +0.7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 November is awful for snow...even where dendrite is and northward into NNE it isn't that good. 2011 not withstanding, its hard to get solid 6"+ events in that month outside of the mountains. You do get a lot of nickle and dime junk in November and the very short days make it "feel" more like winter than late March or April...but the latter definitely has much higher potential for large snow events. Not making any comments on which month people should "prefer", but the snowfall potential is significantly greater in early spring. Now if you are comparing post-April 15th then the snow potential really drops off. edit: I should add that "awful" is my own opinion...since I prefer larger events to little nickle and dimes. But I will admit that nickle and dimes are more "fun" in November than late winter because the season is just getting underway...there's something special about those first small snow events...and there do tend to be a lot of those smaller snowfalls in November...esp in the interior.

Randy4Confluence Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Way back, when I was a pure weenie, I lived in dread of April because psychologically, any weather that mattered was over for at least 6 months. I've since learned to cherish the warmth especially after months of brutal cold. I seem to enjoy the summers more and more as I get older.
