Still a tiny trace of ice/sleet/snow at my stake but not enough to count for today so the latest streak of cover is now done IMBY. Still a fair amount of white in shaded areas though.
A nice little inversion up here this morning. Attached are the obs from KMGJ, at approx 360', and KSWF at approx 460', they are 7 or so miles away from each other but the 100' difference in elevation tells the story this morning.
Yep. It sure is a beauty out there now but it will take a lot more to get the driveway clear. Here’s a shot of part of it, north facing and stone FTL this time of year.
Finally got above freezing for the first time since last Monday, looking forward to the driveway becoming less treacherous over the next couple of days.
It’s difficult to capture in a photo (except maybe for @Juliancolton) just how gorgeous sunset was here tonight with ice still on everything. As the wind blows you can hear the nice creaking and cracking. Deep winter.
If one is looking to kill some time, there's some decent virtual snowchasing today via traffic cams upstate, seen a few whiteouts already: https://511ny.org/
Yeah, it’ll be nice to get some of this .4” of ice off the trees before the winds tomorrow night. My driveway is a lost cause, thankfully that raging pacific jet (wish I had a quarter for every time that phrase is used) will warm things up this weekend.
