  1. Nice 15 minute snow burst here....mostly white rain, despite temps below freezing
  2. GFS at hr 234 would probably send many to the edge....season after season and hearing about the great period for coastal development coming up and we end up with the GFS, 9 days from now....ooph
  3. ....easier said than done, holding a tape measure and trying to take the photo at the same time, while keeping it perfectly straight
  4. More than me posting a measurement pic of it? Might have to call it 1.1" here....heard the plow rolling by, was only expecting a trace around here. It just wants to snow around here, until later this qeek of course....
  5. It is a bummer too.....solid week+ and it is still a nice fluffy pack. Went for a hike today, in a sunny, open field and it was still a solid 4-5 inches. This is why early season snowfalls are nice, they stick around, even when the temps are marginal...If this was Mid February-Mid March it would have been gone by now or at least a muddy inch.
  6. Currently -1.7⁰, finally made it below zero....I'm ok with a January thaw now with hopefully snow mid to late month. In a few short weeks I will be starting some seeds for the coming garden season.
  7. Im sort of bummed it clouded up last night. Hit 3.9⁰ around 11 before the clouds rolled in, it was definitely going below zero....ended up with a dusting, just enough to have the plows run up and down the neighborhood....the pack is still sled worthy, so all is good here. Kids are having a blast, they were out for hours sledding after sundown because the moon was so bright.
  8. Well, fresh snow, clear and calm is definitely living up to its potential...went to a gathering around 5, was 20⁰, just walked home and it is already 6.9⁰
  9. Missed the squall by 20 minutes....measured 2.1" and still snowing, looks like winter....
  10. Just measured, almost an inch and still coming down nicely....Happy New Year!
  11. coated up quickly here....radar looks pretty good, lets see if we can limp ourselves to 2 inches
  12. That is pretty accurate here, measured between 3 and 4 in the yard today...still sleddable too, not a solid glacier
  13. the initial line, looks like a squall flying into Southbury, will see how much virga it has with it really soon...currently 18.9/14
  14. In all honesty, it feels like we have had back to back wins here. The 8ish inch storm (2nd biggest in 4 years). Then despite the cutter/rain, still ended up with full snow coverage afterwards. Prior years, that would have been wiped out with only a brown glacier left behind...it actually looks and feels like winter, during winter, at least around here. The kids actually got to sled, when we got back yeaterday, I definitely did not think that was going to be possible after all the rain....now lets get some more next month
  15. In PA, but checked the temp at home, expecting the worst, but oddly enough it is only 32.2⁰..cold air holding strong in our valley. That will dissappear quickly once the winds pick up....every minute helps with the snow pack...lol
  16. Faked our way to 1.8⁰ this morning, looks like KOXC hit 10⁰...off to PA for a couple days, beautiful wintry morning....will look completely different went we return. Hope we still have some coverage left, but doubt it.
  17. Yup, the only reason it isnt colder here was we had a bit of a breeze up until about 730....down to 15.3⁰ almost a degree since I posted
  18. Already down to 16⁰....unless we start getting some return flow and or clouds later on, its off to the races for radiators....clear, calm, and a fresh 7 inches of powder, should be the coldest of the season, at least here
  19. Will take a few more measurements, but I had 6.6" before I cleared the deck with an additional 1.2" this morning.....So 7.8" So nice to have a system that is snow from start to finish and hasn't already started melting....Kids are already out roaming around
  20. Looking at the regional radar, looks like that slot is starting to fill in....its going to be close for us....maybe a few surprises over the next 4-6 hrs
  21. 5.8", rates down to about an inch per hour...temp 20.1⁰
  22. Just dumping again...almost as heavy as it was earlier...5.5" down
  23. Woodbury if they keep it up...rates are picking back up now after a bit of a lull....right around 5" now, aceraging 2.5" per hr over the last 2 hrs
