Came back from a quick trip to Pennsylvania. Daffodils and leafing shrubs down there, full on winter here

5” at my casa. On my way to Jamaica to thaw out though!

Got another 1.5” of fluff overnight, but finally cleared out! Looking forward to some sun 

It’s been snowing lightly all morning here, just some light accumulation (maybe 1/4” or so). 

Light accumulating snow this morning, 5F

what did you end up getting the other day for snow? A friend of mine lives in marlow and got 10". Alex up in BW got 12", mostly from upslope. Seems like NH in general did much better then ME with the exception of eastern maine

Actually got 18” storm total (6 were pre upslope)  Great storm! And gorgeous today

Thought you were all done with below zero?  Never know up there 

I wish. -13F this morninb

Drove down to Concord today for an MRI. It really is a different world down there. Bright sunshine, gorgeous late winter day. Snowed all day up here and came back to light snow still falling and snow covered roads. 
 

Got out for a few runs early this morning and the skiing was outer worldly. Pure champagne powder.

Definitely!  @CoastalWx If you're taking out the loan anyway to head up, be sure to leave room to stay at one of Alex's place.  Great quality of service and nice, convenient options.  Well worth it!

You’re too kind sir!

Thanks man.

Sorry I replied to the wrong message about the discount lol. But it’s true for anyone of course

Definitely agree with all of this.  Nice, gentle terrain and far less crowded than anywhere else.  Can't beat the scenery either!

Also, if you need a place to stay let me know. I can see what I can do in giving you a deal. We have 126 homes in the program - almost sold out for the weekend but we still have at least 10 this weekend and more over the course of the week.

How’s Bretton Woods for learn to ski type stuff? Thinking about it for next week but I’m not sure what I’m gonna do.

It’s great. Lots of easy terrain and an amazing ski school. Also, much less crowded than other ski areas

The skiing is out of this world. And this is not some woods in the middle of nowhere, this is chair served terrain

That's 2017 level nice. I was at BW and Wildcat buried 

i think that’s the year we had an upslope gone wild episode with about 4 feet over a couple of days. It seems like upslope is just something that they really can’t forecast well. I mean even today the forecast is for 20% chance of snow before 8. It’s been snowing moderately since I got up and obviously more than moderately overnight.

I had atrial flutter and an ablation I can relate. Getting old supposed golden years my ass lol

Haha yep. I had that too - in the fall, all was well for a while then the AFib begun 2 weeks ago. 
 

in better news, my stake is almost buried. First time in years 

Time for a picnic table picture

My outdoor table 

We got whacked with over a foot overnight, the stake is now up to 34” including compaction 

Holy fuck. I said as a joke but we got more than a foot and it’s still snowing. Stake up to 34”

Major pool disaster. Due to my knee replacement I was unable to clear snow from my pool. Today the shit hit the fan. The 2 to 3 feet of extremely wet snow forced the pool liner thru the skimmer wall. I counted my shovels over 120 each one very heavy about 20 lbs. Over a ton. Extremely exhausted and sitting here wrapped in ice. Can't win ready for warmth.

Yikes, sorry to hear that. Sucks to have things happen because of physical limitations. I’ve been dealing with some newly diagnosed heart problems (AFib), it sucks not to be able to do the things you want/need to do. But hey, it can always be worse.

I’m so envious of your location.  

Thanks. It’s not for everyone but I do love it here.

Same here.  Picked up another 0.5” tonight.  Begetting.  

Yep. This is all from today (the stuff on the railing) 

Posted this snake I saw today in the other thread 

Also, saw a snow boa today lol
