Damage In Tolland Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 6 minutes ago, Connecticut Appleman said: Now that I have moved back to NW CT after spending 20+ years in Ellington, I can appreciate what you are saying with the benefits of coastal storms by being 35-40 miles east. Growing up here in NW CT, we seemed to have more storms where p-type issues in SE CT was more common and those were the ones were we would clean up in NW CT. My appreciation for the small weather variations in a small state has grown over the years having grown up in the snow capital of CT, then living on the eastern edge of death valley and then moving back to the hills. Overall your area is great for snow . But coastals such as yesterday can really screw NW CT . When there’s an AEMATT storm anyone that doesn’t live in Boston cringes to see them Pat each other on the back . But for this area .. even when those storms happen , I usually will get in on the action here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't expect to make it out the single digits, maybe below 0 at night, be fun to watch the temp drop like a rock Mon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cities up there don't have much orography and they're too far from the Atlantic for significant ocean effect. They get some monsters from time to time though in the central NY zone. West of ALB and north of BGM have had numerous 36”+ events past 15 years. 2/14/07 3/14/17 12/17/20 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavisStraight Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 40 minutes ago, Damage In Tolland said: I love this area for two reasons .. decent elevation relatively speaking and interior enough and far enough east to catch 95% of the coastals .. as opposed to similar elevations in NW CT who miss out on many coastal events. What I don’t like is no CAD . So if any semblance of a cutter happens , this area is toast . 55 miles to the ocean being the highest elevation with a S or SE wind means no buffer to hold the warmth off Same here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geez I felt bad for her. Epic happy hour run I see lol If they can afford it, ACL surgery on dogs is highly successful. We had our dog’s acl done when she was 11 two years ago. Definitely extended her life-now if she makes it will turn 14 in June. 103 lbs is probably too much. Our dog was in the 90s. Now maintained at 65 lbs and much more mobile. I was against the surgery but given the result really happy we had it done. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

78Blizzard Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 For sure we won't have to deal with the lack of antecedent cold if that Fri storm does pan out, what with temps in E Quebec -35F to -40F, and below 0 in NNE. That's according to the GFS. But according to the Ukie, it shows much warmer surface temps in NNE and much warmer surface and upper levels here.

IowaStorm05 Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 I wonder what the odds of climate change related weirdness causing some winter nowadays where we get 7-10 feet of snow over a 2 or 3 week span of time virtually for all of us. Would that be too much? 2 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wx2fish Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 I do like the cold is centered below 850 on the soundings. That should limit super deep mixing/moderation 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or anywhere out west really. Id like for them to do that…. But it probably has to do with spotter population being less dense, lots of vast empty space between towns. You can’t make a high resolution observation map with the only observers are birds and rabbits. It couldn’t be that humans out there are less interested in significant weather, could it?

Yeah I know….. the red line is temperature? It shows that at ~800 that the line has a peak temperature reaching around 9 degrees celcius according to that. It is even circled and is just above and adjacent to 10. I’m in no way busting any balls I’m just trying to figure this out or how I’m not interpreting this if I am wrong.

I’m in no way busting any balls I’m just trying to figure this out or how I’m not interpreting this if I am wrong. Points of equal temperature are shown with the diagonal dashed lines. So where that red temp line crosses the dashed line at about 800mb, you can move down the dashed line and see that the temp for that dashed line is 0C. Therefore temp at 800mb is ever so slightly above 0C (hence the sleet depiction) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
