Having this degree of warmth over deep snow pack kind of reminds me of when I went to visit MT. Raineer a couple of times during the summer out west....
-
Yea, obviously a high degree of subjectivity....different strokes for different folks. This was probably an "A" for guys live Ginxy and Kev, who just want to see snow on the ground all season...I need greater numbers and depth.
-
It's really just a way to share an individual's winter experience and how they perceived the season, which isn't useless to those willing to share...I mean, it's almost akin to grading a paper in school....it's not necessarily right or wrong, but more about sharing a perspective in a cogent manner.
-
As far as the seasonal outlook grade goes, it may also end a "B"...gotta see how much ground March helps me to make up in the temp department. The fact it's whiffing on snowfall actually helps me.
-
Oh, I meant the winter grade as far as quality of the season. You only had 6" in the blizzard? Yikes, never thought I'd feel "lucky" having gotten 11" Sharp cut-off.
-
Yea, it's a solid "B" for me....the snowfall really wasn't impressive. The only reason it isn't a middling "C" is due to the degree and persistence of cold maximizing retention, coupled with the fact that the past several years had been so lean.
-
Past 3 weeks has sealed this season's fate as suboptimal for me....Blizzard grazing me at the last moment, and then March shitting the bed daggered any shot of an "A".
-
When I say "done"....you know what I mean...that may mean literally to some, but to me that means done with anything I'll give a rat's scrotum about.
-
Not going to be shut out technically speaking because most of the interior has snowed already this month.
-
It's over down here....as someone who spent hours upon hours concluding that March would be fruitful this season, it's abundantly clear where this is headed for SNE...different story up there.
-
Yea, we can't buy a decent December or March....at the risk of having the thread discussion gravitate towards "you know that"...
-
Agree on that....warmth is performing.
-
I agree, it will go faster today...yesterday the dews slowed it, which was my original point.
-
I had 23-25" depth at peak, now I have 13-15"...so have lost 10" off of peak depth....nothing to argue there; I took the measurements...it's ground truth. 30-50% loss in total, yes....about dead-on.
-
Yesterday alone? False...not where I am....I didn't lose 7".
-
Melting was less than I expected yesterday bc of the lew dews....no filtration, just a yardstick into the snow....still over a foot.
-
It sucks... as for accountability...yea, I blew it on March. Happens.
-
Yea, it's going to be just about the most least desirable month of March possible.......eeeeeveryone lean over and grab your ankles...warminstas, snow lovers, frigidairres....mother nature has got a butt-plug uniquely tailored to everyone's crevices, right down to each twist and turn of the colon.
-
He probably sees the writing on the wall and checked out, like I'm about to.
-
If isn't going to snow, may as well. I am really surprised March sucked...didn't expect that. The failed SSW in early February killed us.
-
KPVD was down to 11" Friday...must be down to like 4-5" now....39" cancel.
-
Guessing your folks have around what I do.
-
The only bare spot on my property is under the pine tree.
-
It was in the 60's, but my dew was in the lower 30s.
-
13-15" on the level... The drift that was 3' after the blizzard is still 19".
