I think @Mount Joy Snowman was hoping for a discount on his Ego.
(they don't work well at his lofty elevation)

Mahantango#1, Atomix and I were wondering if anyone else would show today.
It's that time of year - busy selling lawn mowers.

I had time to read a few posts this morning and not much else. Man, I hate to let the team down!

Partly sunny and 62. Nice day, busy day.

That record is in the bag.
.Less than 25% of the previous worst season ever - now that's impressive in a bad way.

5pm - sunny skies and 62 degrees. Stunning late afternoon!

Assuming @millersvilleu receives no more measurable snow through April, the record for least-snowy winter season (4.0" in 1949-1950) will be obliterated. We've gotten 0.9" of snow since Oct. 1, and the moving 4-year avg. for snow is now 13.6".. the lowest on record (since 1926).

I’ve got you pegged — you’re the operator of the Creekside Greenhouse on Donegal Springs Road.
Uh...no.
But it is my go to place for all plants and veggies!

There are 3 sites I tried and it varied between 801 and 810 feet here.
I just learned that my office sits at 518'. Thank you for the link!

@Itstrainingtime Jebman is asking that your whole vaca be ruined in the MA Banter thread. Wants Mammoth to slide down the mountain with drownings. LOL
Quick update that my favorite vlogger just uploaded - filmed just a few hours ago and it's only 4 minutes long:

I thought he was joking (outside the floods).
No, I don't think so. Even the official ski website has a message on the home screen about checking rentals for structural damage before assuming control of it. It's bad out there for sure.

Not to quibble, but let's quibble haha. So, all my topo maps show downtown Maytown in the 400-420' range. Don't sass me with your 447' talk
Judging from your listed elevation, I'm going to say you're out by the Donegal Springs Airpark?? Feel free to call me Stalker Snowman.
I am VERY close to the airpark - you're new around here, we call it Maytown Intertownship Airport. Or, MIA (missing in action) for short.
I got the 447' mark from somewhere online years ago. Bad data. I hate bad data. No data is better than bad data.
I guess I need to spot check everything I post from now on.

My wife and I received communication stating that for now, all is well but there are many structures that have either failed or in danger of doing so. The town really, really needs the snow guns to shut off but uh...that's not happening: https://www.mammothmountain.com/on-the-mountain/mammoth-webcam/the-village

This is ultimately what led me away from Ego. I was afraid I would be worrying about the battery nonstop. I did not do the initial research and find out how much they were.
It is something that's a definite concern/consideration. I still like it enough to mow 60 times a year.

I want to get two 10A batteries (or atleast two 7.5A) but man do I pucker looking at those prices...
Facts.

The next major winter storm is JUST arriving in Mammoth now - expecting another 1 to 2 feet in town today with 3' on the hill:

Yet another moisture loaded storm is expected one week from today. Things are slowly winding down, but my goodness...

I've got an ego self propelled. It's got a good amount of power and can handle pretty thick grass but thick+wet = nope. You'll def have to raise the deck. I've liked it and Ive done the stupid and left the batteries in the garage (have their snowblower and trimmer and leaf blower)
Hey, that's what I have as well. I have the same issues with thick, wet grass which is one reason why I like to stay on top of it.

So was there a February mow?
Sent from my motorola edge 5G UW (2021) using Tapatalk
Yes...last weekend of the month. Admittedly, I sort of rushed that one. When I mowed this past weekend, there were others mowing in the 'hood. Grass legit needed cut.

Yep. Even in our little neck of the woods down here, on strong inversion nights the top of Chickies Ridge (~600-700') will be a good 5-10 degrees warmer than the valleys down below around 300-400'. I've often found a shallow inversion sets up around the 500' level for us. @Itstrainingtime probably is less prone to noticing these extremes as I believe he is right below that 500' mark where the temp swings are more mitigated.
Yes sir, 469' is where I'm at. Maytown is at 447' and I sit at about the highest point in the immediate area.

Anyone else mow yet? I mowed for the 2nd time on Sunday - things are green and growing in Maytown and have been for some time now.

The decoupling is over here. From 24 to 34 in less than an hour. Neat event.
And after all of that, I'm now colder than you. 31 here currently.

My temp dropped from 39 to 29 between 2am and 3am! 27 was my low.
Agree 100% with you - the wild differences in temps over such short distances last night was fascinating.
