Just watched Curling earlier this evening, good day for the USA. It's St. Paddy's Day, Patty is short for Patricia I've had St Paddy's Day parties when I had to move snow banks for parking and I've had them where we all hung out on the deck. 14/8 here currently.

They had mentioned it in their dicussion I read this morning.

A crap shoot for sure. The wild fluctiuons, over short distances, this winter due to radiational cooling has been rad. Up to 20 now.

Its been a while since we had to be concerned with ice jams but depending on how all of this thaws, this could be the year ice jams are an issue. Low of -2 this morning, making 8 below zero readings this season, my average is 3. This season is solidy in third for below zero lows IMBY, 2013-2014 had 11 and 2014-2015 had 15, my records here go back to 2005-2006. 12" at the stake.

This is always an interesting discussion, do you clear every 6 hours?
-
Agreed, if one waits hours after its done to measure its going to be off. You always measure at the end of the event, so in that case I measure after 8 hours because the storm is over. You also need to measure at the point there's a change in precipitation type. I'm a snowpack guy anyway so what truly matters to me is what is at the stake each day.

If I did the every 6 hours thing my 38.5" YTD would be closer to 50".

You mentioned "it was the 24 hour method"? How are you measuring these days, do you clear the board ever 6 hours? It's the constant debate whether we should clear every 6 or 24 hours and in the last NWS guidance @NorthShoreWx and I have found the 6 hour method is out for hobbiests like ourselves.

It's a balmy 26 this morning.

I'm wondering how many deer I may find in the spring. Spring of 2015 we found three deer carcasses, all had starved to death due to the snow cover and size of the herd at the time.
-
-1° for the low.
-
1.6° currently, maybe I can sneak in another below zero morning.

38.5"
