WinterWolf Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 Boxing Day 2010 sucked for a lot of folks in SNE…NYC AND NJ kicked ass. But then a couple weeks later the Jan 2011 pattern set in and it was incredible to say the least. Boxing Day anger (10+ inches here on 12/26/10), was quickly tempered when that Jan ‘11 pattern set in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that was Ray, he’d light his kid’s swing set on fire. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 I don’t cheer for someone to get screwed. Yeah maybe we may giggle at a Kevin melt if he did, but I don’t think anybody cheers it on. This place is probably going to be brutal next winter. Either Ray sets off nukes if he’s screwed again, or it’s an interior curb stomping from those west and north of a Boston to Will to Kevin to Steve.

Neither do I, clearly....and my point is every bit as valid. Its easier for folks in your area to brush off a porker right now, regardless of the time of year.

Don’t forget about us over here Scott…we need some redemption for this POS winter too. Steve Did great this year…his area cleaned up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet you woke up and saw the snow we had and you didn’t .. that was falling over your head and deposited here.. and got angry. At least for a few minutes, I thought i was in the wrong thread for a minute with everyone talking about past events, so ill add something to that. I forgot about the fact that the Mar 2019 NE hills event was exactly on 23rd. As it snowed there one year later on the 23rd. Come to think of it. CT has seen a snow event in 5 of the last 7 years on or around the Mar 21-23rd time frame March 21st 2015 - 2-7", southern CT focused March 21st 2016 - 2-7", stripe of 4-7 across central and NE CT March 2017 - none March 21st 2018 - 0-8", 6-8 across far SW CT and 2-6" across southern half of CT, big bust March 23rd 2019 - 0-6", Up to around 6" in the NE hills, most of the state nearly nothing March 23rd 2020 - 0-6", 2-6" most of northern half of CT, southern CT 0-2" March 2021 - none It's like December 5th of the early 2000s. It would also seem to snow around that date for a few years around here back then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It snows in interior CT In early April. But this year is a weird year. It will find a way not to. And I’m seriously not pulling a Kevin a here…I’m honestly speaking my mind/gut in this. I’ve been ready to put this season behind us for a while now. So I hope it just doesn’t do anything, and gets mild. Sometimes right down to the coast, but it's pretty rare. About the best we can hope for this time of year is something like April 2018 to happen. We were on the verge of actually having another one after this but it fizzled out as we got closer. Wild season post March 1st. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wild season post March 1st. I believe this April 2, 2018 deal, was the next day/morning after Easter Sunday. You’re not old enough to remember April 1982….full on Mid winter blizzard in April that year. Crippled the era…out of school for 3-4 days. So we can hope for a lot in April…but most times it doesn’t happen, but once in a while a big one comes to visit. Then of course there was April of 96, and April of 97 too.

codfishsnowman Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 April 96 was no joke... I lived in Bristol CT in a lower elevation area near Tunxis College Rain and mid 40s became heavy wet snow within an hour or two. Was a quick hit but from 11 pm to 4 am snow fell at rate of 2/hour and occasionally 3/hour. Loud thunder and lightning...10 inches of paste on paved surfaces with a foot on elevated. A wild finish to an unbelievable winter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If many towns get 15” and you get 8-9”.. that is not screwed 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
