@oldscarf1stweek Strong start to 2026

First lightning strikes of the 2026 storm chasing season for me 📍 Coventry, Connecticut

Distant cloud to cloud lightning here in Berlin. @Eweather13 @WX1BOX @MikeSliferWX

Final measurement in Coventry, Ct difficult with all the blowing snow but final measurement average of 5 locations is 16.6”. Spotter ID 15-160. @WX1BOX @RachelFrank_CT @MikeSliferWX @jillgilardi @bobmaxon @StormFurey @ryanhanrahan

The wind roaring in Kensington CT 4:20 am #blizzard @MikeSliferWX

Gotta be honest. I love winter, but these mild days have been quite enjoyable

1/2” of snow so far coating up the trees and cold surfaces in Tolland (just some patchy spots on the road)

New record set for the Hartford Area today: 58°. Only one record high under 55° remains

While record warmth is sort of random based on pattern evolution, the chance of breaking records increases in a warmer world

Niche weather stat: for the Hartford Area, there are only *2* days left with a record high temperature under 55°… December 19 (54 set in 1949) and February 2 (54 set in 1981). Friday’s record high could be challenged

@oldscarf1stweek Ah that explains why I didn’t see it lol. Thank you!

AMS (American Meteorological Society) officially calling out the sharing of 10+ days snow forecasts on social media as unreliable and misleading, particularly from those who have earned the CDM (certified digital meteorologist) seal for broadcast meteorologists.

45 minute timelapse of the Aurora over Mansfield, Ct tonight. The flickering effect was due to the very windy conditions this evening. Definitely a highlight of 2025. @jillgilardi @MikeSliferWX @bobmaxon @ryanhanrahan @GarettArgianas @RachelFrank_CT
