A Birthday Message

maggie-mattDad,

We thought that with all the research and writing you do, you could have fun with a blog and building readers.  You can post any articles, posts, write about history, weather, climate change or anything else you want…whatever you’d like to effect.

Happy 75th Birthday!  Hope you enjoy sharing your knowledge through the internet!

–Matt & Maggie

New England Winters

Winter 2015

New England Winter 2015

We had one of the coldest and snowiest month on record. February 2015 became the coldest month on record in Connecticut with an average temperature of 16.1. And it just missed being the snowiest February by less than an inch at Bradley Airport. Farther east, the snowfall was higher with record amounts in eastern Massachusetts. March 4 was the first day since Jan 19 that the temperature exceeded 40 degrees. You walk along sidewalks and the snow is waist deep, and after a moment, you realize this is the thickness everywhere and many of the bushes have disappeared. And it is much higher along the sides of the streets.
