I can’t recall a temp that low in July or August since I moved to my current locale in 2013. Also, SOS tomorrow night? Might get a slug of heavy rain. Nam has 6-8 inches in central CT with only a 0.5" here, that woould fit this summer's precip trend pretty well...52 this morning after a 48 yesterday.

My only 30s here in August (since 06) was a 39F in 2007. Don't have time to look, but I wonder what your area did back then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's near the water too, but I'm also on a small hill that never radiates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamarack Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 10 hours ago, dryslot said: 6.0" here on that storm and the rest of that winter ended below normal. Killed by the sharp cutoff - forecast was 10-16, we had 4.5", and only lost power for about 2 hours. Might've been 2 days or 2 weeks had the forecast verified high end. Farmington reported 8.0", their largest Oct. snowfall on record. I saw about 8" that Sunday morning at 750' on Weeks Mills Road, but the Farmington co-op is at 420', only 25' higher than my place, so it was surprising they had nearly twice our total. 25 miles SSW from that co-op, Hartford (765') had 14". That cold season's biggest snow came on Nov. 23, with 9.7" and nearly half came during the 3 hours I was looking for deer that morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, 14-15" here but power was back in 24 hours. We had days on end of people coming from all over to buy gas and other supplies in Greenfield because everything S of here was crippled.

HimoorWx Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 53 for a low at home, 54 at MQE, and 43 at OWD. It definitely was colder down by the Neponset at the Route 128 station. Could see my breath for the first time this year. Great summer morning! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Similar in ORH....we had 17" of snow that was just powdery enough that it didn't cause huge power issues. But people from near here just lower down were all coming in and going to the stores since power was crippled in the lower towns just to the east.

RUNNAWAYICEBERG Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Oct 11 was a straight up disaster zone in DXR. I hate not having power but it was memorable enough to overcome the inconvenience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damage In Tolland Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 That was the best damaging storm of my life. Would give anything to have that or worse happen again. Just something so exhilarating about it. It exposed how delicate our infrastructure is and will look like we got off easy when we get a cane hit like 38. Just a matter of when , not if.

I remember the days after the storm it warmed up and was bone dry for weeks....was a harbinger of the awful incoming winter, basically a redux of 01-02.

Refused to believe the storm would happen as it did and didn't call in out of state help in advance. Guy was an idiot-tried to say it was un forecast which was not true at all.
