Damage In Tolland Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 I think these past 2 months really epitomize and legitimitize what we've been saying. It was season performing as a season. Just continued unabated cold, and snowcover. That is what winter is supposed to do . It's climo. Now so far spring is not performing as a season.. But the good part about that is.. The longer we sustain cold and snow.. The less misery of clouds, drizzle and backdoors, and we can move quicker into the heat and humidity of summer. The only worry is instead of April bring terrible.. It ends up being May that we have to suffer thru of cold and drizzle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baroclinic Zone Posted March 22, 2015 Author Share Posted March 22, 2015 It one day into Spring, give it a chance. Snow is long gone from yesterday. Everyday it's melting now. Yard cleanup is just a few weeks away now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether it's April or May lingering into June Well that's just completely made up. In truth there is really very little correlation between our coldest winters and a colder than normal spring. Most are just average. I would say after winter a nice spring doesn't happen. But in reality this is an average spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 Violence and disagree. Add them together As we have discussed before, our winters in general are not wire to wire cold and snowy. Climo is climo for a reason. Most of the time your avg high is near and above 32 during DJFM. You avg near 60". You prefer cold and snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eekuasepinniW Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 Ice on Winni crying for mama.How has it been there this year? Ice out late April? Late April is a pretty safe bet. Some folks say there is only 10 inches of ice in spots and others still have 30". Can we beat 4/23 from last year? I've selected April 25th. This year might be near the record of Mid May 1888 Going into May totally depends on cloudcover and wind and has little to do with temps. No amount of cold is going to help with 14 hours of sunlight and a peak sun angle of 62 degrees. The May iceouts are kinda lame anyways... the solid lake cover is long gone, it just means the ice drifted and compacted into one of the bays. 2001 was the last May iceout. The lake was 99% clear but the docks of Wolfeboro were blocked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OceanStWx Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 I'm expecting a big misery mist season. The intense 0.08"/hr type of stuff. I don't like that look. The good news is that the coldest waters temps are mostly from 2004, which turned out to be a pretty average spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, we could even see our first slight in April if things go rightThe New Madrid fault produces an 11.5 quake, swallows the TN/OH valley and Mid Atlantic thereby pulling the Gulf of Mexico north and New England southwest putting us into a climatologically favored region for severe?
