  1. PWM 18z - 1.4" new | 0.06" LE 10.1" total | 0.50" LE | 19" depth
  2. Tell her 2 things: 1. It's nice and light; easy to move. 2. Buckle up, buttercup.
  3. This is my greatest depth since my records started in 2018. Next closest is 14.5" (CocoRAHS...15" for GYX) in 2023. My only other = >12.0" depths (5 total) are from January or March 2023.
  4. You should get yourself one of those 8" metal cans, like the one I have. No issues with overflow . My flags are gone too. Was just looking where I can buy more. ACE has them. Will need to put them through the drill holes on the boards.
  5. PWM 12z - 8.3" new / 0.42" LE 8.7" total | depth 19" 1215z - SN, 22.1°
  6. Nice! Won't make the official observeration until 7, but I'm guessing we're at if not over 8", still ripping
  7. PWM 05z - 0.4" / 0.02" LE | Depth 11" 0523z SN, 25.7°
  8. Was my first thought as well. I'll take that, a CF and three 's.
  9. Just got solar and heat pumps in December - albeit the latter is mostly for cooling due to the direct southern exposure we have. I'm impressed with their production. Even with the solar min, and "cold" season we're having, I'm covering 80% of my electric to date. By the time the equinox rolls around I'm sure I'll be at 100%, and then will net-meter all warm season and get my ROI in 5 years as well.
  10. I've noticed the same with GYX. These new maps they're using - while still having "storm specific" ones - are pretty confusing. The timeframe the represent and ranges make little sense to me, I am sure much less so to the general public.
  11. What would cause the reversal? The trend has been for a weaker piece of energy over the OV, and is coming in flatter, too (I think)? Will a stronger primary be enough to amp it, or do we need the trough out west to speed up as well? Looked further east a few days ago, over CO, but now seems to be hanging back over the PAC NW. Not sure if that as an impact, too.
  12. My favorite stat from up here (similar seasonal average) last winter was that I had more snow in April (8.0") than December, February, and March combined (7.0")
  13. I think this is more common than we realize. Meaning, the public's perception of total snowfall compared to that of the observer (or even weenie). This is my 4th winter doing obs for GYX. Friends around town will ask me how much we got, and each year, for almost every event, their response when I tell them the amount is the same: "that's it?" People perceive a 4" event to be 6", or 10.5" to be 13". And that's in a place that, for the most part, see's less variability than your locale in term of amounts across a geographical area.
  14. Yeah, that is an NNE-wide thing. Up to 38F and PC we drip and compact.
  15. 2.8" on 0.19" liquid will do it for PWM 10" depth as of 12z.
  16. I suppose you could check your hourly rate that way (assuming youre not wiping a board each time), but at least for the NWS climo site obs it's every 6 hours at 12/18/00/05z, or when it stops.
