Average at Pit 2 should be in the 70" neighborhood.

Through yesterday we've had flakes on 19 of 26 days this month, with measurable snow on 11, for a grand total of 12.3". With only 0.2" last month, we're 8.5" BN for the season, assuming none today. 8 separate events (so called) this month and only 3 had more than an inch. sad

That was the case at Farmington. Without the 43" dump in late month, they had only 121" for the winter, ~30" AN. Euro pretty meh, Looked more like a few cents instead of nickels and dimes. That's how the Christmas "storm" worked out - forecast 1-2 and final 0.4 (in 10+ hours).

Lots of "chances" - we've had 18 days this month with frozen precip, 11 with measurable snow, for 12.3" total, a few inches BN. Hard to get that modest total with all those chances. Mixed events on the 6th, 11th, 16th and 22nd, each with ZR as the major component. Only the snow on 12/18 was a hit. Lots of messies plus numerous dying quail events, but at least the ground is white - 20 of 24 at this site.

Flakes returned about 1:45, only a few minutes after my "dry corridor" lament (of course). By 4:30 we had 0.2" and radar indicates that's about it. Just a coating.

Nice portrayal of the no-snow corridor currently over our place to Skowhegan. Maybe the echoes going over Montreal will hold together until reaching here, though unfortunately it will be after dark.

5 hours? Time stamp seems show 3:36. If valid, that looks like 5-6"/hour.

We replaced our all-metal shower head a couple months ago with an all-metal shower hose, with holder, so the not-yet-tall grandkids could make it work. Had no tape so just screwed it on hand tight, hasn't leaked (yet).

Only off by one magnitude.

Had about 20 flakes at 10:45, none since. Radar shows us in the lower part of a dry corridor that runs 300°-120°, with lighter precip to the north and better stuff south. Unfortunately (for us) the echoes are moving parallel to the dry area. Them that gets keep getting. Those that don't, won't (for several hours anyway). Better to get skunked on a teeny event than a significant storm, though the grandkids would love some flakes in the air. Mid 20s here and the lack of echoes overhead probably means RH about 70%, similar to cloudy BGR.

Some strong inversions this month, but our CAD spot is made for them. We've had ZR (light) at low teens and the storm of Jan. 19-20, 2019 included IP at -2F. Cloudy and upper teens here at 8:55. GYZ says 1-2" with no mention of ZR.

A slightly bigger midget. Should avoid ice, however, after icing events on the 6th, 11th, 16th and 22nd this month, fortunately all minor.

Hope so. The only places with <1" for 'expected" are EEN, ASH and MBY (actually Farmington). First 2 are likely P-type issues. Not sure how BLM and North Conway show more than here. However, those 16 CWA stations for GYX are all showing a minor event; I'd be slightly bummed if the respective forecast amounts were in single or double digits with the lowest for here.

My greatest December precip, mildest mean temp and for any day of the year AN departure, 1° more than 3/22/2012. Hard to imagine any worse wx for 12/25.

About the same but compared to yesterday at noon (15° with gusts to 20) it feels almost balmy. We - myself, son-in-law and grandkids - kept warm by "bucket-brigading" a cord of wood from pile to porch. Thankfully, especially after last year, tomorrow will make 20 of 24 white Christmases. Currently 6" with ~2" LE, with a crust on top and ice at the base.

Not knowing the width of those tracks, I'd guess a fairly large deer at a fast trot. Moose usually aren't as good at overlapping front hoof tracks with rear. I’ll add that I am not able to take Tylenol due to interaction with my daily inhibitor, so I will normally take Advil if I have a fever. I had the opposite after getting prescribed for Eliquis 4 years ago and advised to avoid ibuprofen, which has always worked well for me. I find Tylenol to be little/no better than a sugar pill.

Right at zero here. Temp was <5° at 11 last evening then thanks to clouds it rose to about 9 by 4:30 AM. The clouds left and the temp plunged.

Should've written 6.1" BN as nothing was coming today. (Or 6.8" because tomorrow will be the same.) By the end of the month our average is 24.0"

5.4" below the average for the date here.

Thanks. Numbers are us. Ended with 1" total though it likely settled the existing 6" pack to the same degree. Half inch snow on each end with ZR in between.

Snowiest of our winters in Fort Kent with 186.7", though the 54" peak depth was well short of 83-84. Dec-Feb 76-77 had snow on 82 of 90 days. You might be thinking of 2005...that one happened pre-dawn Tday and ended early/mid morning. Only 3.7" from that one but it lasted through most of the daylight hours. (Also brought EF-0 and EF-1 tornados to the midcoast.)

Snow stopped about 3:30, with 0.5" from 0.07" LE. The first half inch included some IP and had 0.10" LE. I'll learn how much ZR came down when I melt out the whole mess. Probably pounded Saturday's powder to leave the depth unchanged but more solid. Wind has turned to N and a bit of nice color from the sunset. Things should be rock hard by morning. Genny kicked on at 3:55 - nowhere near enough accretion for much damage to the trees, though it only takes one weakling.

After 1/2" snow and 4 hours of ZR, switched back to snow about 1:45.

Tiny flakes here, took 3 hours to reach 0.3" with temp about 21. Local school district canceled, probably due the ice forecast.

My short (23 years) record shows 17.6° for 12/20 and 24.1° for the 24th. Takes until the 30th before the average drops below the 20th average. Even with my 15-day smoothing there's a pre-Christmas bump. With the short POR, days like last Christmas (54/43 and 29° AN) and 12/29/17 (-1/-31 and 35° BN) have huge impact.
