The 2/22/08 one was BOS biggest of that year (and paltry) I def don’t remember 08 or 09. I remember 2010 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoon Tip Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 The 00z GEF -based teleconnector coverage still looks rather warm in the AO and distant PNA ... So, the EPS signaling that ( assuming as we close out the month ..) not surprising. They could be rushing things though.. I'm also wondering if the PNA sagging out there may be accompanied by an EPO block... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randolph data doesn't go back that far, but Berlin had 12" on 0.83" liquid, so probably another 15"+ storm here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damage In Tolland Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Yeah the signs have been there for days on the 22nd. That goes north and either is a fropa or rains most of SNE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With that in mind does the Euro and its ENS have a tendency to drive troughs into the west? Just seems like something I have noticed they tend to correct east maybe it's just my eyes. IMO looks like a classic battle in March coming up with spring pushing from the south and what's left of the cold from the north. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure that was a kickoff foot to a great vacation week. Stayed in Conway we skied Attitash, Wildcat, Bretton, and Cranmore. Bluebird week with about 3 feet OTG.

But verbatim right around 3/1 looks mild. Maybe it cools off a bit after the 5th or so? GEFs at least as of last night, looked better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginx snewx Posted February 16, 2021 Author Share Posted February 16, 2021 My son in Omaha crying for his Momma -26 at his house Had a busted pipe on Saturday, heat went out yesterday so we are huddled in the living room in front of the fireplace like a big slumber party. Kids schools shut down because it is too cold, and they are doing rolling power outages because the grid is being strained. But other than that we are great. Lol I used to love winter, but this is something else entirely. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your insulation isn't up to scratch you will notice that the room that is colder in winter is the same room that is warmer in the summer. I have such a room with a cathedral ceiling. The roof insulation in that room is just below the roof shingles and is some kind of white flattish covering. The only reason I know this is it showed when the roof was replaced some years ago. Also, 3 of the 4 walls are exterior walls, which doesn't help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
