weatherwiz Posted October 14 Share Posted October 14 It is FREEZING. This is absolutely miserable, brutal, and not fun. Want to put the heat on so badly but have to get the furnace serviced but I feel like I am in an ice box. Hands are frozen. 80's and 90's are so much more enjoyable. Literally have to wait another 8 months until we get consistently great weather....the North SUCKS 4 1 2 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love this weather and wish we had it all year long The differentiator is the clouds. This becomes much more tolerable when there is Sun and winds are light. Like if it was 50 right now with bright Sun, it wouldn't be terrible. But these cloudy days, especially when we're dealing with the late sunrises and early sunsets, freaking brutal in the mood department. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WinterSnow Posted October 14 Share Posted October 14 This is like peak autumn weather, though - Cloudy, foggy, misty, upper 40s! It's a beautiful day to go see the leaves as the sun isn't washing their color out. I don't have SAD, though, so I cannot relate to the hit to one's mood. Sunny weather does not help my mood, in fact it makes my mood worse. I become more irritable. *sigh* While I'm glad I don't have SAD, I sure do hate always feeling like the odd-one-out in terms of this. Everyone else in my family loves the sun and I believe they have SAD. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A good snowstorm goes a long way to helping me get into a good mood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherwiz Posted October 14 Share Posted October 14 I don't think this place is well insolated. If its above 60/70 outside it gets hot in the house and the house must retain alot of heat because at night, even if its in the 50's it can be very warm. Even last week when it got down into the 40's or 50's at night, we had the bedroom AC on. But once it turns cool its become downright freezing...says its only 63 in here . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinterWolf Posted October 14 Share Posted October 14 I clicked mine on this morning for the first time…64 in here was it for me, so on it went. Just to get the chill out. 68 in here now, and that’s much better, and fine for October. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowcrazed71 Posted October 14 Share Posted October 14 1 hour ago, Damage In Tolland said: Its 80+ in spots Ok, I will give you this... You said in a previous post several days back that we were going to see an extended period of 70+. I had disagreed and said maybe a few days. Well... It does look like a solid week ( or a bit more ) of 70's. But I don't see 80's ( although there is one/two days where they have 78..so I guess it's possible ). Either way... What a stretch. I think this would be considered an Indian Summer, correct? Remember.... What goes up must come down. So, my gut would say in about 2-3 weeks, we may see some pretty frigis air. But time will tell. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is where we live ( having more people than not that are here are looking forward to the winter months ). My husband other hand would agree with you. He is not a cold weather or winter fan. Our 11-year-old daughter can go either way, but she does get excited when you see snow ( partially because she hopes for school cancellation lol ). But it's going to be chilly the next 3 days. I did put on two of our mini splits in the living room and family room ( sides opposite sides of the house ) last night because it was chilly.

The snow makes the cold more tolerable so hopefully we have least have a snowy winter. But outside of snow there is just no use for this type of weather. If you're involved in physical activity it's not so bad but it takes so much longer for your body to get going. The cold makes me cramp so easily and it seems to get worse every year. I get cramps in my arms when I had them in folded position for a certain amount of time and then stretch them out. I'll even get like cramps in my throat which is odd. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bwt3650 Posted October 14 Share Posted October 14 18 hours ago, powderfreak said: I bet it’s snow up top. Snow level here is like 3,200ft. Im down in the base again and you can still see that distinct visibility change above the snow line where it goes from clearer to milky white above. Are you there tomorrow? I think you could get smoked for a time at 1900ft. BTV has snow mixing to valley floors. 925mb temps -1C to -2C in steady precip on GFS/NAM could get it down low tomorrow. Yes, til afternoon. Finally switched over to snow here at 1900'...slushy coating so far 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It turns rime and fog into into a lot of precip. I hate that model for the ridgelines . It’ll show like 3 feet of snow, the globals will show 6” and the mountains will get 12” and everyone is like see the NAM knew. No, the NAM showed 3 feet, lol. Panels like this are usually very bogus IMO…. and it all adds up fast in the like aggregate. Maybe a tenth in 6-hours but not like 0.30-0.50” on the ridges. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, no way I was implying we would see those clown numbers...but the look of upslope after it passes through Weds is pretty impressive for mid October....Even the GFS has a robust burst late Tues/Early Weds. There should be some cool shots of decent snow up at 3500-4000' Wednesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There should be some cool shots of decent snow up at 3500-4000' Wednesday. Oh for sure, I think a foot at the summits by Wednesday AM is in play. That was just a knee jerk reaction by me (my bad) as I see the 3KM shared so much on social media with people dropping pins right over the mountains and seeing 25" Jay, 20" Mansfield and then asking why forecasts aren't calling for two feet. I like the HRRR's precip scheme... however that resolves the terrain looks a lot more like reality than how the 3km NAM resolves the terrain. Check out these side by side comparisons for a 12-hour QPF total. The HRRR on the right looks more like what usually happens. Maxes over the peaks but not like 1.0" QPF next to a trace. Upslope can be pretty stark differences over short distances, but the HRRR precip spread looks more like what often happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon Tip Posted October 14 Share Posted October 14 not trying to troll the interest in the near term cold shot - it's impressive. but i really ( personally ...) think that focus is eclipsing a potentially bigger story.. 2 facets: - scalar achievement in warm anomaly - the delta between tue-thur and the weekend in itself both these records have an outside shot of being reset this sat and sun at hartford, ct October 19 82 1963 October 20 81 1969 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
