Yeah it's great, there's easily 20 miles of trails in the 3 main sections and they're super fun. Not terribly difficult but that's ok because they make ya laugh. Hopefully the chill keeps the crowds down otherwise I expect that place to be a zoo. I'm heading to a more out of the way spot. Want a tour?
-
Bring your bike next time you're going through Y'town, the trails there are a bunch of fun. You know the footbridge over the Taconic? That connects two of the three zones and there are 3 more to the southeast from FDR Park towards downtown and then two more on the south side of town.

I had light snow all the way up to heavy graupel that fell for long enough to coat the ground in pellets even though it was 44*. That was pretty cool.
-
Yeah I'm definitely going to keep my eyes open for those last flakes of the season tonight or early tomorrow morning.
-
I was just playing around with that site but don't see a place to see historical info. It would be nice to compare now with the same time last year. Yesterdays p&c had us dry for the next 4-5 days other than some showers today, now it's wet more than dry This sux, I want to be outside doing things not stuck inside with the wife and kidz all the time.
-
Many long low rumbles here with a short bout of torrential rain.
-
Well, settling into our new normal doing some bike riding and starting to clean the house. Slowly. I could live with weather like yesterday and today for a month straight, see what y'all can do about that would ya.
-
In all the chaos leading up to being stuck at home I forgot to check the oil, doesn't it figure that the last cold shot with snow is the night that we run out Not sure if we can get a delivery today but they said they'd try otherwise I have to go out and get 5 gallons of diesel. I really don't want to go anywhere right now.

No Whole Foods will get some, not like usual but, between that and the seeds I have I can get started. There are a few farms I can ride by that might have seed potato and garlic so that's part of the plan. Hardware stores are considered essential and will be open so will they do their usual, will HD and Lowes? I know a few people in the food delivery chain and they are talking about shortages in some categories, mostly peripherals so far but that's fluid. Grow your own
-
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.
-
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?
-
^^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.
-
Looks like some seriously heavy rain rolling through. What's going on in Poughkeepsie and just north? T-storm or just heavy rain?
-
Looks like the last of it finally melted off. Like Rob said at least we're on the board for March.
-
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
-
Lucky. All I got was flakes and wind. Still have the wind which is good though, it's time to dry things out.
-
At least it didn't rain for very long but it's soggy again and the fog is getting thick already. Maybe we'll get some t-storms to blow it out later.
-
Anyone else getting passing moderate sleet showers?
-
Flakes! Well at least I got to see a micro dusting on frozen puddles I'm pretty sure this is the first February of my life I haven't had snow on the ground. Even on the worst years I went somewhere and went skiing, didn't even do that this year.
-
^^ You will soon. I missed the showers that came through at the beginning of the month so this will be the only snow I see this month, really hoping this line holds together.
-
I just looked and Old Forge/McCauley Mt only looks to have gotten about a foot from this storm but with the wind up there it's hard to tell. The ski area is closed and not reporting. I think I got to 0 in that Dec cold snap but otherwise yeah, it's been one of the warmer winters I can remember here. We've definitely used a lot less heating oil this winter than usual.
-
You need an excuse to procrastinate? You're still young, it gets easier Over I like 65 degree mt bike rides in February.
-
I looked at cams and by noon it looked like the rain line was just about to Saratoga, maybe 1 exit south of town. The road was completely covered from there up right down to the Thruway. I had solid mist all afternoon. I hate this stuff, it doesn't measure up to squat but it thoroughly soaks everything and keeps it wet and makes mud, lots of mud. The coming dry and cool ought to do wonders to dry out the surface, boy I hope so.
-
Looks like it's a mile or 2 north of me
-
I got down to 4°
