    Heh, I saw the latest tfl video and had to laugh and they're not the only youtubers having problems. JC is right about it really not being much better with the domestic products, there are just so many more that the problems seemq smaller. There is this Lucas guy running around in the trucks systems depositing gremlins in random spots that's kind of entertaining. So what, 2" of snow Saturday with some rain and wind late today/tonight?

    These nice warm days have to end, they're getting expensive. Every time it's warm out I head to the driveway and start working on my new (to me) Range Rover. Well, the damned thing is 14 years old and the plastics are getting brittle and every time I pop a trim piece off I snap tabs and it doesn't fit right afterwards. I'm getting mechanical things solved but ending up with whistles or rattles. FYI supercharged Jaguar motors are all sortsa fun

    You weren't around here in the 70's and 80's were you?

    I've had off and on flurries all morning but over in the Catskills it's more significant https://www.plattekill.com/webcams/

    Flakes flying and twinkling in the sun, so pretty

    I've got flakes happening right now.

    ~1.5" and warm, muggy and soggy blech... Just need another 10" or so to get to normal for the year but the recent moisture should at least mean that the well is good to go for a while. Boy it's getting dark out there right now, kinda looks apocalyptic with black sky directly overhead and bright sunshiney goodness just down the hill to my east.

    ~1.5" yesterday so not bad, plenty of wind but nothing too significant and no damage. The standout was the temps, I ran high 50's all day and popped up to 62 around 6 or 7 last night, it was very tropical feeling when I took the garbage out.

    @Juliancolton we really needed this In the half hour since I posted I've doubled the total. It's really coming down now.

    As hard as it has been raining today I'm having a tough time believing all of the local stations. They're all between .22 and .28 and not reporting much for wind. My gutters have been overflowing for hours and water is running down the hill in torrents now.

    Eek. Being fully exposed to the ESE and being 400 feet off the general valley floors in the area I worry about lows getting into the NY Bight and sending the winds accelerating up the gradual southern slope below me. Every time we get winds out of that direction it takes out trees, thankfully the leaves are down already. I think I'll fire up the generator this afternoon just to be sure I don't get caught short.

    Turned into quite a nice afternoon. Got a bit over an inch. I'll take it.

    Looks like about .9" is the mean for the area but at least it's warm out.

    We haven't had anyone posting good LHV minutiae like this in 20 years since Jerry Thaler used to on the old WWBB. Thanks Walt!

    Snow is on the ground on Rt 2 heading east out of Albany. Coverage is solid over Petersburg Pass, mostly goes away in Williamstown/ N Adams but picks back up down Rt 8 into Pittsfield. It was nice to drive around as the sun was setting on the pass with it snow covered.

    I saw 33 on the dashboard for a minute but a block away it was 31. I'm good with calling today 32* high, it was proper chilly.

    More flakes and still 29*
  20. gravitylover
    More flakes this morning. 11am and the temp is still 29*. Looking forward to the return of spring the next few days.

    Flakes

    Anyone else getting flurries? I missed out on them during the day.

    Well that was fun. Tornado warning and we headed for the basement. Of course I stood outside and listened for it. I could hear the wind absolutely roaring but there wasn't much wind here which was weird. Then I saw a few minutes later that just north of me in Brewster they got whacked pretty hard. I think our member drvts was right in the line of the rotation but he might be 2 or 3 miles too far west.

    Wet spring led to a lot of growth, then when it dried out that growth took off. The leaf carpet in my backyard is definitely thicker than usual.

    That's a cool page. Thanks. Too bad there's only one well in my area. Mighty soggy day today. 44* and drizzly, yuck.
