  1. Those are pretty damn good numbers. I've been fortunate I only lose a day or two at a time to snow cover, at most. Must have a good pitch/angle combo. Or I just don't snow. All last year I ran about 20-40 KWh/day avg. Great production, Finished with 16.6 MWh produced over 11.8 consumed (+4.8 MW/h) Then, In December, we started running grow lights 16 hours a day for our new business and we're popping 60-80 KWh a day (during peak heating season. Already coming down to 40-60). Current delta is -2.0 MWh. Hoping to stop the bleeding there this month and build up a surplus. Lights should be off starting in late May, we'll before cooling season.
  2. Looks like other nearby ASOS (Sanford, Brunswick) did too. Fake cold->full sun?
  3. 5.4" last night puts PWM at 58.0" for the season. Current depth of 16" is deepest this season. This morning will be the last skate/shoot around of the season, most likely. What a great run for it.
  4. It's just over the line, I agree. Leaving it to melt ia not quite an option just yet, especially if the areas you need to clear are shaded or north-facing.
  5. Lol, let's get warning criteria. I think people around here are unaware they'll wake up to snow to deal with.
  6. 05z PWM - With a few more hours to go, this will be a bigger event here than the blizzard (4.5") and deepest pack of the season. 2.5" new (0.27 SWE) 4.3" total ( 0.47 SWE) Depth - 15"
  7. Sup with the hundredths values?
  8. I remember reading somewhere that was the biggest threat to their temp - moisture - amd I thought specifically feet. My oldest hen is 5, the buff, and at her old age she won't step on ice or snow, unless she absolutely has to, lol. My biggest concern this time of year is Hawks. The ermine I had slinking around their run a month or so back has moved on. Had it's fill of meadow voles, couldn't get into their run, and thankfully took off.
  9. Well, see, there's the issue. It took several pages but we finally figured it out. Cory is 4'11". 36" would literally eat him.
  10. Yes, and I'll start with what Cory sent me privately: Oh, I’m a real snow measurer. And I’ve also really done all of the following things: • Personally corrected multiple National Weather Service totals • Measured snow in non-public drift zones the “pros” don’t even know about • Had my ruler featured in three separate viral weather videos • Been DM’d by meteorologists asking for my methodology • Calibrated my yardstick to within 1/32″ precision using aerospace standards • Sat in a folding chair during peak banding to observe flake density transitions • Received a personal pocket ruler from a sitting U.S. Senator who “respects precision” • Serenaded a highly respected female TV meteorologist with an original winter ballad about dendritic growth zones • Had private correspondence with at least one other TV meteorologist • Measured in the President’s Day Blizzard of ’03 • Had drinks with a local plow operator while discussing compaction bias • Been told off-record snowfall doubts by a state official and two town officials. • Sought out as a source by at least one YouTube commenter with over 10K subscribers And all of that was before the age of 35 when I officially began my independent oversight of SE-SNE Big Snow.
  11. Erika about slid off her chair after he dropped the GFS getting pulled in the 8th analogy. "As someone said". Good one.
