  1. Looks like a few mangled flakes are mixing in with the relentless rain at times, but still 40F here
  2. We’ve had sheet drizzle all day. Very annoying and bone chilling. Ceiling is very low so no idea where the snow is, but looks like freezing level is around 3500 ft or so
  3. I might just lose the 4 leaves we have left...
  4. Yeah the new restaurant looks awesome. Wont open till next summer though. The gondola is ready to go. Don't particularly care for gondolas except for when it's really cold.
  5. Very nice! Mine are still budding. I posted last week how there were no lupines at the Lupine Festival in Sugar Hill this year. Kinda sad, it's very pictoresque but it was nothing but green lawns this year.
  6. A word of caution. Tried that a few years ago when I first bought my current house and it was a disaster. Granted I live in snowland and my driveway is a quarter of a mile long, but even with weights and chain the JD125 we have would slip and get stuck all the time. Driveway is flat. Then one time we got an inch and a half of sleet and it couldn't do anything to it at all. That was the final straw (and happened on like day 85 of the 90 day return policy). Took it back to Lowes and got a plow.
  7. Over 36” on the ground. That snowflake thingie is the top of my stake
  8. Thanks - never thought of that. Downloading a free one right now, thanks for the tip!
  9. Same here. How do you get an alarm on your phone?
  10. That's exactly how it was happening! I need to start paying attention to the sky, I didn't realize it was so common...
  11. Weird that this thread is dead but just saw northern lights over Bartlett for the first time tonight. Faint greenish glow, pulsing between weaker and stronger. Very cool.
  12. From Winchester/Arlington Heights area. Glad to have the forum back!
