Flurries started about 30 mins ago in Howell, NJ, transitioned into a light snow. Tree roots and limbs are white, roads and sidewalks are wet.

Just came back from my 2nd covid 19 vacc shot (hooray!)....is this a side affect? Am I hallucinating or is this happening? 

My second shot is Tuesday morning (yes, work in Healthcare now). Needless to say, I'm probably the only one rooting for a slightly shorter duration, just to get the roads clear for Tuesday AM.

Hey, neighbor! (I'm right off Aldrich, east side of 9). Hoping that rain/snow line holds as long as possible.

Started the flakes at 30 and now temp is down to 28 and falling as the rates increase.  Currently at SN- to SN rates.  Dews have slowly crept up and now at 24.  Starting to accumulate on the grassy and colder surfaces.

I'm right along the rain/snow line in southern Monmouth...but very much still big flakes. Had that little area develop right over us a few hours ago ahead of the leading edge, so we've got a really nice little dusting going already here.

I tell you guys what. My wife and I bought our first house this past October, and it came with not one, but TWO non-working snowblowers, one from the 80's and one of a much newer vintage. (Dunno why. The previous owners were a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma.) I've been itching to get either or both of these bad boys up and running, but with the colder weather fast approaching, my wife recently turned to me and said "don't you dare". She's superstitious like that.

So there they sit, in my shed, in all their un-working glory. It would be awesome if our first major storm dumps enough to warrant the operation of such a machine, and I would not complain one bit having to shovel it all out by hand. The first time, at least. So there you go. I'm doing my part, everyone.

 

My wife and I bought our snowblower almost exactly two years ago (right after Christmas). I take the blame for the lack of snow along the JS.

It has run twice, both times strictly for maintenance. Haven't moved it from the shed to the garage yet for the season.

(Of course, I still have a week to go on crutches/knee scooter post-ankle surgery...so it would make sense that the first snowblower storm would entail teaching my wife how to use the blower.)
