I made it!Pretty impressive. I must admit. It was tougher than I thought it would be!<br />
We did 200meter run followed by 15/12/9 pull-ups on the rings, air squats and push-ups with a 200 meter run to end. I did it in 5:40. I was shot! <br />

GFS....the "wetter" of the two models does have a >.10" swath up through Eastern Connecticut. The question is ....will this precipitation fall as snow down to the immediate shoreline?<br />As of 5PM Saturday, I am thinking dewpoints are pretty low and this is key for evaporative cooling. They range from 12 @ KOXC to 24 @ KIJD and even a low reading of 17 @ KBDR! The precip will occur during the "cold time" of the day and thicknesses are favorable for -SN.<br />I think dusting to maybe 2" will cover it. 2" may be a bit tall for this event......I think 1" will be common East of the CT River.<br />We shall see!www.weather4connecticut.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09476584918645445480noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-269230495457049127.post-77038812789839095032008-07-02T16:04:00.003-05:002008-07-02T16:20:53.521-05:007-2-2008 PVA - NVA anyone?<div>Finally another update! </div><br /><div><br /></div><br /><div></div><br /><div><br /></div><br /><div>Time has really been flying by lately.

Daily highs struggling for 50s and 60s with afternoon scattered showers. Mount Washington has been getting snow each day. 850MB temperatures have been <0 degrees C over CT for much of this week. As a matter of fact, -28C may occur this Thursday @ 500MB. Prime for afternoon instability showers. Some containing small hail!<br />High pressure looks to build in for the Holiday Weekend. Fair skies and warmer temperatures are in the forecast! This will be rare as I find holiday weekends are usually a "weather forecast challenge"!www.weather4connecticut.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09476584918645445480noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-269230495457049127.post-81191932367495877482008-04-24T08:46:00.002-05:002008-04-24T08:50:26.751-05:00Amazing Weather!Our weather pattern has been amazing! Daily highs of 60s, 70s and 80s along with clear skies. Today will feature very dry conditions and a gusty breeze. This combination has increased the fire danger to very high. I expect some brush fires this afternoon that will be tough to control.<br /><br />A large pattern change will try to get underway this weekend. Timing is tough on when we can expect rain drops......it does look much cooler with an onshore flow. I think this cut-off low may wobble around the NE in to early next week providing some much needed rain!www.weather4connecticut.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09476584918645445480noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-269230495457049127.post-63343977743547758912008-03-11T19:04:00.002-05:002008-03-11T19:10:08.687-05:00Recap 3-8-08 StormThe maximum rain area occured across Southeastern Connecticut. Norwich had 4.81" and New London had 4.73" of rain and New Haven had 2.10"! The strongest wind was recorded at Windsor Locks Middle School at 62 mph during the evening just around frontal passage. The was a severe thunderstorm warning for Litchfield as the front came through.<br />The Farmington river did not rise to the dangerous level of 16' as predicted by the NERFC. I think it peaked at around 12 feet. The Connecticut river has minor flooding in Middletown and Portland right now. Rte. 7 did close in New Milford due to the high waters of the Housatonic River. -Gilwww.weather4connecticut.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09476584918645445480noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-269230495457049127.post-57141992695190121852008-03-07T17:55:00.002-05:002008-03-07T18:06:28.171-05:00Flood Concerns<div align="center"><a href="http://newweb.erh.noaa.gov/ahps2/index.php?wfo=aly&view=1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1&toggles=10,7,8,2,9,15,6">Here is a link to the river forecasts.</a></div><br />I am expecting some areas to pick up 3" or more of rain East of I-91. This will cause sig. rises on Eastern Connecticut's Rivers. Even in Western Ct., 1.2" of rain will send the Housatonic in to flood especially in New Milford and Shelton. The Farmington River could have the most significant impact to homes ....especially in Simsbury.<br /><br />The rain will come in two periods. Number one tonight with a break Saturday Morning and the second round (heavier) will occur Saturday Evening.

The GFS and NAM agree on many areas with 3" of rain coming down very quickly. With rivers currently at or just over flood stage, this is not good news. The tropical moisture with this system seems very impressive. <img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5174588063885362066" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 545px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 337px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" height="329" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXQA7C7TLGZDWfwO0c52LWIwYteTN8LLS7cEM0UeCpO1NXnV-4lSBuiJVqUKEIB73UBBlMfetMnndOjL0VSqcZ7H_Q8b67ra535PDxGW1zPdTCU0tKgEnUuyH8SimobvjFUQPjHr6yBtE/s400/nam_p60_084m.gif" width="500" border="0" /></div><br /><div></div>www.weather4connecticut.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09476584918645445480noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-269230495457049127.post-24036016349003390002008-03-06T01:15:00.003-05:002008-03-06T01:29:43.377-05:003-5-08 Wednesday<div>The Thunder verified! We also had a wind gust to 68mph in Voluntown! The Housatonic River flowed over its bank in New Milford.

This thing looks intense! 500 mb tries to go negative tilt and the QPF is quite heavy. 00z run shows very warm air and the tropical connection is impressive!

The GFS has copious amounts of rain and the NAM has half as much. Temperatures look tricky with a cold front sneaking in our direction from Canada Tuesday. Warm air will be running North at the same time. I am a little concerned about the risk of freezing rain for areas near the Mass. line for a period of time Tuesday Night before the WAA takes over Wednesday AM with very heavy rain. Stability idicies also hint at thunder possible at night! We shall see!<br /><br />Also...one more thing. The heavy rain and mild air will combine with deep snowpack to raise the flood potential in CT. I will be watching this closely!www.weather4connecticut.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09476584918645445480noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-269230495457049127.post-57286570929014159032008-02-18T01:24:00.003-05:002008-02-18T01:34:47.106-05:00Rain-Rain & Yes......More Rain!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiA_fUSsbmRxK-24d9-guCoVGXuLdXwWqe8UG9PLiTzzdaW78HVGCM1mOo0PN5tfMxnlAUwNmQcQzwTieFPWMGde5_aNj0cltYTnhAVqdUbm5NKdFge8rXvAUOhwSDB_HhdO3hqQlwgpNU/s1600-h/radar+2-18-08.png"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5168203327851619970" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiA_fUSsbmRxK-24d9-guCoVGXuLdXwWqe8UG9PLiTzzdaW78HVGCM1mOo0PN5tfMxnlAUwNmQcQzwTieFPWMGde5_aNj0cltYTnhAVqdUbm5NKdFge8rXvAUOhwSDB_HhdO3hqQlwgpNU/s400/radar+2-18-08.png" border="0" /></a> <div>Another warm "moisture rich" system is dominating Connecticut's weather again!

We have had thunder and lightning a couple of times in the past week. Blinding snow squalls this past Sunday.....temperatures in the 50s and near zero. I went on Monday Night with a forecast showing 3" to 6" of snow for the entire state Tuesday Evening (tonight). It should change to ice then rain from South to North. As I type this @ 1:15AM....most of the state has temperatures ranging from 11 to 18 degrees. I expect the snow to develop between 3PM and 6PM from West to East! </p><p align="center"><strong>HERE IS THE 00Z NAM 36 HR ACCUMULATED SNOW</strong><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5165977138927920610" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNcZl01brdoBbGzeipve-0jsGCq54la9LYIgwtJDHIR9RIPl5mUxmTkBWmSX_eon-9jt66kg8VOvA4nQfzdzATTSPDGQyOnw6g09BlKYQKNi8nukEyebcq0zH-jH6UBTdzCxcPt7nuAJf3/s320/NAM+00Z+RUN+36H.gif" border="0" /><strong>HERE IS THE 00Z GFS 36 HR ACCUMULATED SNOW</strong><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5165977134632953298" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhpofjFHq0RX3PUIQTi_Fi0XTBOaKvBrPrqYd5X4Efx6J6BIcoRuSoVgek80cQmn1xWL5QBnLumt4qTWmg_-9ZpFTeyOI_bxNvTLr42NzJtRHx5yrT3M4lhV8XvdUqKPluJrj4a5N08EUn9/s320/GFS+00Z+RUN+36H.gif" border="0" /></p>www.weather4connecticut.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09476584918645445480noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-269230495457049127.post-21269925010254917242008-01-08T13:27:00.001-05:002008-01-08T13:30:59.265-05:00RECORD WARMTHHigh pressure continues to import warm air on a West-Southwest flow across Connecticut. Severe weather including tornado reports for the midwest where a strong LLJ has set up. Winter is alive and well on the West Coast as Spring visits in the East. We shall see if records are replaced today for high temperatures. 59 inland and 57 at the shore. I expect some 68 degree readings in Central CT.!www.weather4connecticut.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09476584918645445480noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-269230495457049127.post-9880007034172516102007-10-02T16:58:00.000-05:002007-10-02T16:59:27.938-05:00Happy Tuesday!We are in for some cloudy weather tonight and for a good part of Wednesday. Some areas may actually see a little drizzle or a few sprinkles. Certainly not a soaking rain.This cloudcover is associated with another round of warm air moving our way. It will feel like Summer for the last half of this week. I actually looked up the maximum temperature records for Thursday. They are: 83 in 1954 for the shoreline and 85 in 1954 for inland areas. I think we will be very close to these temperatures.....possibly setting a new record.Enjoy it and have a great rest of the weekwww.weather4connecticut.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09476584918645445480noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-269230495457049127.post-70392311388457238252007-10-01T17:26:00.000-05:002007-10-01T17:33:00.352-05:00Hello Rain Gods?<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgz3PF8OSRYxW43CM095ZBhRrouFu84dTbLlqBqiFTdJHu-0UNRdUQVnVoUOzjGiMyj0ZDFh9bYioL-2nWXKenFTMXfiIS9SrVMWtTf7x1cfB8WZvfOy5O6Uz0UWOsuuj-eHKA-kGY0LxE/s1600-h/sfc.gif"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5116499892178921602" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgz3PF8OSRYxW43CM095ZBhRrouFu84dTbLlqBqiFTdJHu-0UNRdUQVnVoUOzjGiMyj0ZDFh9bYioL-2nWXKenFTMXfiIS9SrVMWtTf7x1cfB8WZvfOy5O6Uz0UWOsuuj-eHKA-kGY0LxE/s320/sfc.gif" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhABL5PAh4C3dteONmZSajXztYL1ad2WJlS859qj7EYCoEF0RxXUJlRQLS4ZUILBelmjwTxdfT7Fbqi_PTQxu84kL2k0GjDOR_qBt5DLi_E3AKbjRdS-hv9WH3x-KOjc-I-5wACRtJGtcA/s1600-h/sfc.gif"></a><br /><br /><div>Another pattern with large high pressure locked in across the Northeast! Other than some spotty drizzle we don't see any heavy/soaking rain until Sunday Night or Monday. Some areas in the state are running 5" to 7" below average for yearly precipitation totals!

I am guilty Jen! So I would like to start posting again! It was chilly this morning. Woodbury had a low temperature of 33f this morning! This is the coolest air of the season so far.<br />I also had a chance to take the Thimble Islands cruise this past weekend. It cleared nicely Saturday for a good afternoon trip. The wind did turn a bit gusty....it was still very nice!
