I think Mitch who was living in Mass at the time had the JP with over 30. I believe it was October 29-30. 15 inches in Greenfield but much more in the hills west of here. Power was out here for a day or so but south of here 4 days. Greenfield was swamped with people coming up from the south to get gas and groceries etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ensembles are developing a huge Bering Sea vortex at the beginning of November. If that’s a sign of things to come, ooof A little early to make assumptions like that, but it shows at least half of Novie is AN. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrisrotary12 Posted October 23 Share Posted October 23 Eventually the atmosphere finds equilibrium right? Are we saving all our QPF for winter? 0z GFS with 384 hrs and no precip. Nashua is ~6” behind the last 2 months. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. Let the vortex go over Alaska in October and November, and keep it mild here. I’d rather that than in mid/late December, or January. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let Alaska/northern and NW Canada have it, and build up the snowcover there for now. We’ll get our turn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping that doesn’t happen this go around. We also had a foot of concrete fall here that destroyed everything that October 2011 too…so that ain’t happening this go around either. Different year and set up. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh....personally, I defenitely would rather not have at there in November because that is late enough where sometimes it sticks....but doesn't have to. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Power was out here for a day or so but south of here 4 days. Greenfield was swamped with people coming up from the south to get gas and groceries etc. Fortunately, it underperformed here. Our 4.5" was accompanied by 4 hours w/o power. Had we gotten the forecast 12-16, it would've rivaled the 101 hours last December, only without the Generac. Fog, <1/4 mile vis, hanging in there. Forecast 72 but mid 60s more likely and a PC day after 7 sunny ones in a row. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
