October-November Snowfalls
We're due for decent Snowfall here in SW CT before December 1st. It's been 8yrs since.
Some will say its a jinx for the winter though.
In 2024 interior got hit hard but not here.

Woah now... Don't threaten me with a good time! 🤩
Both the latest GFS and European Ensembles are suggesting the Polar Vortex is going to be doing exactly what a winter lover would want to see from it in early November! Big stretch towards North America!
Will that pattern lock in??
If we can get these stretches to continue, Winter is going to be very exciting in the Eastern US.

Still waiting for 1st freeze and snows. Usually comes early-Mid November
In 2014 & 2020 the 1st snow came before the 1st freeze

Heads up folks - we have a moose on the loose in Greater Danbury. This one was spotted today in Brewster on Route 6 near 684/84 exchange.
If you recall the last time we had a moose in Greater Danbury was in Fall 2022 - also a male during rutting season.
