I'm fully immersed in fantasy baseball, so it's going to have to take a strong consensus for a major event to pull me back in, and a day 7 OP EURO won't do it.
Oh, man.....so sorry to hear. Dude was definitely enthusiastic about weather...he'd go with a 40"-burger somewhere in just about every big nor' easter. RIP.
Yea, I'm not holding my breath...if something comes together, great.....but I'm not pinned to the models. I've reached the stage where I'm content with the winter and am ready for the off-season....but if the hype starts to mount, I'll get ready for one last hurrah. I haven't cancelled the subscriptions...yet.
Yes, exactly the case here. It's not shade...my front yard faces north, and it has less because a lot of the snowfall is blocked by the pine, so it's mostly melted out. MBY faces south, it totally open, and has the 6-8".
No, it's not sheltered in the sense that it's shaded....MBY gets decent sun. I think the cold just pooled here well on Thursday AM...if you look at that map, that little appendage to the south, just N of KWLM, is right over me.
I know you aren't...I just don't know what to say lol I also said in the post above, that while I'm not right on the Merrimack river bed, I am in a little valley...so am not surprised surrounding areas also get a bit more snow. That probably worked to my advantage om Thursday because I didn't mix out until the front was coming through.
I also don't mean to imply that there is a uniform 7" of snow on the ground throughout Methuen, either...certainly not the case. Lots of bare ground showing up and it's gone near the main roads and under trees. I'm sure there is more consistent coverage in Brian's area....but IMBY, which is not heavily shaded, there is still several inches.
