If you have a genny it’s great. But for those who lose power in NE CT while opioid addicts run wild in your neighborhood, break into your house as you hide in the bathtub with a box of Treehouse over your head...might not be fun.

Woodstove FTW. I don't really want to lose power, but if it happens, we can deal. Kevin will just be wrapped up like a mummy in blankets.

I'm picturing Emily Blunt from the tub scene in A Quiet Place lol. 

This is a system where I am deeply relieved that I've moved NW away from the North Shore.

When one sees that they think that all of NNE has had a great winter so far, Which is not the case for some of the areas.

lol... it's not far from a normal winter up here.  Again, the difference is more in how little snow has fallen south of the mountains, not how much has fallen in the mountains.  I still think if SNE had seen normal snowfall to date, the perceived NNE winter would be a bit different.

But I think its been very very much outlined by the mountains...even Sunday River and Sugarloaf have had a "great" winter (meaning average at least).  Its not like Maine has been left out of it.  From Sugarloaf to SVT at Mitch's spot, all the NH ski areas are doing real well seasonally too (NH jacked in the November snows).

Dryslot, you down there on the coastal plain have been one of the few spots in NNE that might be below average?  But then again, BTV just did their first spring flood outlook and from snow water equivalents had most of VT under 2,000ft as below normal snowpack/water for early January.

January 28, 1994 perhaps.  Burlington went from -28 on the 27th to 47 on the 28 and back to a high of 9 on the 30th.

I remember watching the 6 pm news with a temp of -27 at the time calling for rain the next day and thinking "well that can't be right."  I was wrong.

Probably the earlier storm in Jerry's hood.  That was our light tower snow, as we were getting heavily rimed SN+ with temps about 5° while RKD had SE gales and 40s.  Temp popped up near 30 overnight then plummeted.  BGR neighborhood got into the 30s and the crashing temps left packed ice chunks on I-95 that were immovable (at subzero temps) and slowed traffic to about 15 mph.  The late Jan subzero-to-40s deluge was for NNE - we had beaucoup snow on our roof so I went up to shovel, slipped in the slush and poked my hand thru the plastic ridge vent, fortunately not slicing my wrist but I had to cover the hole (sheetrock pieces in a garbage bag) so the RA wouldn't come in.  (Took about $7,000 to fix, but that's another story.)
