What station is that 79?

 

*?

Looks close to Morristown/MMU.  (Or Parsippany, where we lived between our marriage - 6/71 - and the move to Maine - 1/73.)

Not raining atm but still low 60s here.

A lot less nice than yesterday, but it's still better than sunny. It's been windy, with occasional bouts of light rain. Was glad to see no Tornado Watch for Middlesex county, hope it stays that way.

Wtf

Yup unfortunately the back is broken and we’re on the decline. Thankfully at least there is football, hockey, and basketball to look forward too.

It’s a gentle slope to drop 15 degrees

I’m all for variable wx to break up the monotony, but weeks and weeks of 60 and rain? Not judging just asking.

Can’t wait until 2/10 when we can claim winter’s back is broken.

Why wait that long?

Today was nice, not boring.  Some rain, warm sector coming through and turning more tropical, gusts of 40-50mph in a humid environment for a couple hours this evening… felt like a tropical storm.

Lots of power outages and damage, especially west of the mountains and through the Champlain Valley with 60mph winds and wet soils turning trees over.

Frame grab from a sh*tty/blurry zoomed-in video, but Stowe Village had some damage on Main Street.  I can’t believe we didn’t lose power here to be honest, but saw 32% of town was out. Guess enough white pines have been taken out in past events that we can take these winds now on our line.

Damage! Yeah true, winter’s back is already broken.

From Jankoski... he's one of the best locally.  He gets the passion.

Important to note this is outages in the local NBC viewing area.  There are a lot more power outages in NY as a whole.

We missed the flooding, but another hazard filled the void (wind).

Wonder if there is a downslope component. Haven’t looked at soundings, but maybe the wedge forced over the mtns and then off the peaks from the SSE.

There’s 100% a downslope component.

The RT 100 corridor in the valley mixed out the best locally between Waterbury-Stowe-Morrisville.  Downsloped off the Worcester Range (3,000-3,600 feet ridgelines) and elevated piedmont across eastern VT.

The VT side of the Champlain Valley was the wind “jackpot”… downslopes off the Green Mtn Spine and funnels up the valley at the same time.  Strong southerly LLJ mixes down in the CPV more than any other locations.
