As much as i don't want anymore of it, Were in the prime spot for it.

I could see your area cleaning up, I remember the 97 storm I didn't snow blow, I let the April sun melt it and just plowed through it with my 4 wheel drive truck for two days.

Little chilly with that wind

FWD is starting to mention the increased chance of cloudiness over climo.

 

I hope for everyone's sake it's a clear day but since I'm going to miss it I won't feel as bad not being there if it's cloudy fighting the traffic.

I'm leaving for Florida the 2nd, good chance this will happen.

Yea. I was going to wait until after the mid week cyclone originally just to be safe. 

The difference is amazing in two weeks, we usually go down by the casino to one the courses there first week of April, one of the is Cedar Ridge, we get there early for their brunch spread and golf 18, course is greened up and it's a good deal for brunch and golf.

How do we feel about laying down step 1 tomorrow? Grass is starting to tickle out of dormancy slowly…

Probably ok for you guys, I'm waiting 2 more weeks, but we golf in Ct first because the courses green up a couple weeks before we do.

Actually to be fair and honest, I noticed looking out the kitchen window when waiting on the tea kettle this morning that the lawn suddenly has green patches that were not there last week.  I don't qualify it as "growing" just yet, but the uniform beige is now more a patchwork of vaguely greener and dormancy. 

I don't think that is early in and of itself.   My recollection is that grass will tinge green at lesser environmental excuse - few mild days in February passing out the solar nadir into Ray's favorite - warm bum car seat season - and that patchwork look will flash over fields.  That seems more like where we are at here in the Nashoba Valley.  Which is interesting ...because what part of an icing event just last week flicked the turn green trigger ? 

I have more green grass than brown, part of my yard gets a lot of sun.

Perfect, thank you in advance! 

Your welcome, two times I went down for spring break in the crappy 80s and we had two good storms in March, I went down with my wife one March and also missed another good late season storm. I was here for April 97 though.

I know what you mean but April 1982 is never walking through that door again. It's been several years since we had a comparable airmass to April 1982 prior to a storm during winter .. let alone in April. We have a much better chance of replicating 4/97 type storm if anything. 

Good chance it's happening, I'm going to Florida and I miss a lot of late season storms when I go down there.

Caribou has had a shitty year…horrible. My cabin that we rent for snowmobiling is about 45 minutes to an hour north of Caribou…And it’s been a horrid year for N. Aroostook County.  Up until this past weekend..there was zero snow on the ground the last 3-4 weeks. 

Did you pull the plug too soon? I assume you had the cabin until the end of March.

I had glasses from 2017 but ordered more for the family so nobody would fight over them......I ordered them Friday and they came today......so you got time.....

I got them from https://www.3dglassesonline.com/

Probably paid too much but whatever........I still had the ones I bought 7 years ago and ordered 3 more for the family this time......can't wait....

 

No price is too much to preserve your sight.

Did you guys buy glasses yet?

wtf is this? Drunk spotter? PNS says its a trained spotter. I can't find a single report on cocorahs, COOP, PNS of any snowfall, not even a tenth in CT or anywhere around this area. Let alone near 3". Also falls village is like 700ft. 

Maybe on the top of a mountain?

This seems like hype to me - my experience in Missouri in 2017 was not this.......far from it......but who knows

And lol at cell service on 91 in VT........there already isn't any lol

It'll be a mess right after for sure, thousands of cars driving back home. Hopefully its a sunny day and they get the full effect.

Still have the wreckage of mine in the backyard. 

That was a common site around here in 2015, I even saw a lot of those plastic sheds with the roof caved in.

Another 8” at the plot between 4pm yesterday and 12pm today.  Couldn’t check it earlier because of lift wind holds.  Multiple lifts never opened today, but co-worker and friend Andre took on the mission and traveled uphill and a couple miles laterally to get the snowfall reading off the Gondola from the Sunrise lift.

It just wants to snow.  87” depth at the Co-Op Stake!

Bottomed out at 40” in early March… and have since gained about four feet in snowpack depth since then.

Does the hill hit 100” on the ground?!

Weird up and down year but your above normal right now and may go way above soon.

Thanks. I had the glass from replacing all the 1970's sliders on my house so it just worked out. Have enough to do another one from other glass I've collected. Feel free to ask questions if you ever get around to it. Took me about a week to build it and I think $3500 at the height of plywood costs. That includes the cost of the trailer which I had already and a brand new Wagner moisture meter. Spent a little more since then too. Added diesel powered heater I can hook up at the end of the cycle to sterilize. Frankly, if you're a hobbyist I wouldn't bother. It's been a real asset for my business though... As long as the sun is shining anyway haha.

I have a bunch of wood already that I bought before prices went sky high, I wanted to build it for my firewood for my stove to get it nice and dry to burn and keep it out of the weather. Just haven't had the time to put it all together.

@kdxkennot trying to clog the obs. thread. I bring logs and buy lumber from a friend of mine who is a sawyer in Windham. This one had to be on a trailer for a few reasons but I'd like to build another one not on a trailer and maybe dabble in selling hardwoods. Mostly as an excuse to hoard lots of beautiful wood. Couldn't fit it in the kiln today but this last load I brought up included some really nice ambrosia maple. I love wood.

That's a nice solar kiln, I was going to build on with plastic instead of glass but that's just another thing on my to do list I may never get to.

Heading to WNY. Hoping for at least some breaks of sun. 

Jerry has the right idea heading to Texas, his odds are much better than around here.
