Feel like we’ve gotten 2” of rain every 4 days for a year at this point. If this info is correct, 2023 was the 4th wettest on record in Worcester. If we keep up the same rate we've had so far in 2024, we would probably surpass that. https://www.extremeweatherwatch.com/cities/worcester/year-2023 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feels like drying out the basement has become a weekly chore at this point. There's just nowhere for the water to go. Neighbors dealing with yards that are flooding in places they've never flooded. Our basement has ground water coming up in areas that it's never done before. Just exhausting, think I looked and we're somewhere around 44" of precipitation since New Year's. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We average 56 to 62 in "cold" season, and summers are a putrid 81/79 daily torpid steam bath under rumbles like a rain forest... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want real windstorms go to Atlantic Canada or Europe. Those seem to be the hotspot for hurricane force non-tropical systems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damage In Tolland Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 Strong/Damaging Winds... As for the wind threat the EPS continues to be more amped up. The EPS indicates winds 2-3 STD above model climo, but the V component (north/south) is around 3-3.5 STD above model climo. As for the NAEFS the winds are around 2-2.5 STD, while the V component is 2.5- 3 STD above model climo. Both sources indicate most anomalous winds at 850 hPa, which makes sense as deterministic guidance showing a 50- 80+ kt southerly jet impinging on our region. The big question on the winds is the exact timing and typically it is a bit more difficult to mix down southerly winds this time of year. This risk could be increased especially in areas where heavier rain slides through or with thunderstorm activity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
