  1. Water is still pumping out of the ground and our driveway is a half inch thick layer of ice from edge to edge. The street below is a 20 foot wide ice slick and the street leans to the downhill side so it's pretty sketchy to drive by and the downhill neighbors can't park in their driveway because they can't get out. We've been parking on the front lawn all week because our cars would slide out and right into the neighbors bedroom. What a pain in the ass.
  2. Mahopac. I guess the ground reached the point of total saturation because it appears to be seeping through the 75 year old walls.
  3. Sort of Most of the golf courses look better than they do in-season. Please no. I spent 10 hours yesterday sucking water out of my basement with a shop vac and this morning it's worse than yesterday. I'll be ordering a dupster to throw out a bunch of stuff we liked.
  4. @40/70 Benchmark Sometimes our reputation is justified but more often it's just what you said.
  5. Well, the basement was dry at 2am but not at 7am. I've been down there sucking it out 5 gallons at a time while moving everything out to the driveway. It's still coming in I think it's coming through one of the walls but the only way to know is to start punching holes in the sheetrock to send a camera in. This sux.
  6. 3.1", temp is down 15* already with the wind out of the NNW now.
  7. @wdrag some of the smaller rivers are already bankfull like the Croton River from it's northern end right to the Croton Reservoir and the Housatonic in Western CT. When they reach these levels it doesn't take much to send them over the banks.
  8. A few stand out but I've had faulty brain syndrome for a while now and storm details are even blurrier than they used to be. Ya know, if it's not gonna snow I'm totally good with winter days like this.
  9. There used to be a ski area with rope tow in the park.
  10. It looked like snow for a while but it was really just rain wearing a holiday costume. Light rain at 35° now, 1.7" for the 2 days.
  11. Maybe there. I was supposed to be mostly dry until lunchtime but it was soggy at 7 and drizzling by 8. This fog could go away. Hoping for no wind. Expecting 3-4" of rain.
  12. That's a business I'm disappointed I didn't get into years ago. There were so many places land was cheap as could be in the 80s, old farms that were $20-100/acre that would've been perfect. Stuff like that wasn't even sort of on my radar. Silly kid...
  13. Yeah there was still a full coating on natural surfaces this morning. It was kinda nice
  14. It flaked for a few hours, sometimes it was flurries. Whatever fell yesterday melted while it was snowing today.
  15. As long as the Pacific warm air pump shuts down...
  16. I have a few flakes, maybe it gets better. Yesterday I got .3, I don't think that'll happen again.
