  1. An inch or less now and it's not going to start until the morning. It was a "better" forecast when it started at night.
  2. In 07? No, the last 3 frozen precip events were all sleet.
  3. Yeah I'm just worried about food supplies and such so wouldn't mind getting a jump on it. I know it's too early but I'm not real comfortable with our current situation.
  4. I could go wash the car if you think it will help. Nah, already tapped into the beer stash. After this round of cold it kind of looks like spring wants to spring. Time to get things planted yet or will that be a waste because we are going to get another shot?
  5. Big? In context I guess but nah, not so much. It's nice and crisp today and it looks like tomorrow morning ought to be downright cold ahead of this storm, I've seen worse setups that's for sure.
  6. ^^You went to pick the kid up from school? Are things starting to leaf out along 17 yet? I feel so out of touch with things because we're essentially trapped in our little worlds now.
  7. Looks like some seriously heavy rain rolling through. What's going on in Poughkeepsie and just north? T-storm or just heavy rain?
  8. Still stick season here 35 miles to your NW.
  9. That was the worst period... The last 3 storms of 07 were pure sleet and the first storm of 08 was too. I don't remember ever expending so much effort to move frozen material out of the way. It was like picking up a shovel load of ball bearings which, as you might imagine, is a pretty challenging endeavor.
  10. I think part of why the totals in PD2 varied around the region because of the sleet that was mixed in at times. I got a few hours of sleet in the middle of it and the snowpack settled at least 6", more on southerly exposures where the sleet was driven into it rather than just fell on top. I know though that some friends further SE in CT didn't get the sleet as badly as I did.
  11. Why don't you just go away. Isn't it obvious to you that nobody wants you around? After all these year and all these times of getting bounced don't you think a wise person would just leave because they're not wanted? IOW split kook
  12. Looks like the last of it finally melted off. Like Rob said at least we're on the board for March.
  13. Nice little half inch on the ground. @Animal how much did you end up with?
  14. Snow! I woke up to look out at 4am and it was coming down pretty hard. Woke up now and the place is covered, well everything other than pavement. Easily .5" makes it the most in 2 months. Nice surprise
  15. And then again Thursday morning.
  16. Snow in my P&C for Monday night
  17. Where are you still flying to and from? Are you seeing the empty planes that my friends that do a lot of business travel are talking about?
  18. The mosquitoes have been swarming and are really aggressive so far this (short) season. Thankfully I'm seeing no ticks yet but I hear that they've been really bad in southern NH.
  19. I've seen a couple of places that said it was a hot box problem. The pics from this morning are ugly.
  20. Well the wind and dry air has done wonders for drying things out quickly. I had a super fun 73* mt bike ride today on ribbons of hero dirt. Where were you?
  21. Well, I can tell you what it's like when 17" falls on warm ground then melts within 24 hours. Fortunately it rained for a few hours before it changed to snow so it loosened up the surface, then add the weight of the goop that piled up and things got kind of slidey. Steep hillsides sagged, road cuts sloughed and even the steep landscaping stuff in my neighborhood shifted as the snow melted. With the 40+ inch numbers they got here in the 1888 storm I can only imagine the chaos it caused.
  22. Lucky. All I got was flakes and wind. Still have the wind which is good though, it's time to dry things out.
  23. Tonight has some wintry appeal goin' on. I'd call it moderate flurries.
