45/33 in Haymarket at 3:35. Not expecting to see any white on the ground tomorrow am. In my experience these setups usually do much better at least 75 miles north and east of here.
Just finished a final cut of the grass at a proper 2” and got the last of the leaves up. Snow can now fall on a perfectly manicured carpet. Beautiful moon rise and a crisp 36/22 at 5:10 in Haymarket.
I mean if you are looking for a reason…an hour of this could make the drive a bit more interesting but doesn’t seem to be sticking to the roads very well right now.
5pm OBS - Snow has definitely cranked up. Grass is now 100% covered as are sidewalks and neighborhood roads. Pouring a cocktail in anticipation of a Jebwalk in a bit.
4pm obs - perfectly manicured 2 inch winter grass is about 75% covered, north facing sidewalk has caved, east facing sidewalks starting to cave. 30F with moderate snow in Haymarket.
White rain becoming a little less rainy, moderately falling and covering the grass blades in a clumpy, spring snow sort of way. Still 31F at 3:10 in Haymarket.
Pretty while it lasts but it looks like back edge is less than an hour away, unless we can get some sort of pivot - not sure that was forecasted though. At least we have added at least an inch on to the seasonal total!
Grabbed a fresh bottle of Casamigos to have with a little sparkling water. Nothing too exciting, but a nice mood enhancer for the beautiful scene outside right now. Down to 32F and moderate bordering on SN+.
