Going into this next storm cycle when everything is so wet and soft is a shitty situation. I can't help but to picture trees and branches down on powerlines while it's 28* and windy. Yuck. I was hoping for a few sunny days but until that actually materializes I'm not getting excited.

The rosemary in my garden put on 4-5" of growth the last few days. Gonna do a batch of rosemary roasted potatoes on the grill tomorrow. Springtime for New Years! boo
-
I think wwbb was already happening by then, not sure about the NE board. That was a good storm but if memory serves it was pretty wet by me.
-
Ooh ooh, the fog is lifting! I can see almost 3 blocks away now.
-
This mornings fog is the densest in a long time. It's been ~300 foot visibility for a few hours now. This sux.
-
This fog is horrible, I can't see the houses on the next street down the hill about 300 feet away.

If it's not gonna snow #bringbackthedrought

We run a dehumidifier in the basement all the time, upstairs bathroom and kitchen when necessary. We have forced air heat so most winters we run a humidifier at night.

North of the bridge ya mean, right?
-
I'm still under .1, it's gloomy and soggy but it hasn't rained for more than a few minutes. Any chance the big numbers don't happen?
-
Y'all just have the wrong approach and need to rejigger your expectations. If you go into it thinking that it's not going to snow then it's doubly exciting when it does. Appreciate how much $ you're saving on heating and how much strain you're not putting on your back shoveling.

Which side of the river and what brewery?
-
Yeah LB this is just ugly. Everything is wet all the time and everything is soft and mushy all the time but on the upside my herbs are still growing so I still have fresh rosemary and oregano.
-
Of course. My basement finally dried out on Monday, another 2" is just what I need...
-
Depends on where the station is. I had friends that lived by Merrick Rd and went to School 5 and they'd have delays when we didn't because they actually had snow on the ground but there was nothing more than some slush south of about Foxhurst.
-
Yup. It's a 10-25 foot high wall of tangled, overgrown, unkempt ugliness. I trim our side smooth all the way up a few times a year and end up with piles of crap that just sits until it dries out. When it's leafed out it sux getting out of the driveway. Suburban problems you've never known
-
Most of those were just a sort of early end to the snow season and a sort of late start to the next. Only one other is multi-year. That's significant.
-
It's a good thing we have some warmth incoming or this would be there all winter. For the nearly 30 years I've been here the neighbors refuse to trim the growth between us and won't let me do it either so the driveway is in deep shade from mid November until mid February. Usually once the ice forms that's it for a few months, it makes its own little freezer where the temp will be 10° colder than it is 50 feet away. Last year I went through 150 pounds of salt and 300 pounds of sand

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.

Mahopac. I guess the ground reached the point of total saturation because it appears to be seeping through the 75 year old walls.

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.

@40/70 Benchmark Sometimes our reputation is justified but more often it's just what you said.
-
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.

450 feet! That's the real deal.
