    Yuck, pounding sleet. It's melting on exposed surfaces immediately but accumulating on old snow and shaded spots where the ground is a bit cooler.
  2. gravitylover
    I've got sleet falling hard enough that it's accumulating now at 40*

    Yup it looks like it's gonna make it. Danbury is at or under 50% coverage other than northerly aspects but as you come west and uphill we're in pretty good shape.

    39/39/RN/Fog Ugly out there

    My half inch is a tenth high according to Walt's graphics. My eyes are old so it's ok

    ...and here comes the fog with rain Now it's a race against the clock to see if the snowpack can hold out until tomorrow night to give me a wall to wall month with no grass showing, the only bare spot on my property is on the south side of one of my big trees.

    It was a touch over .5" when it stopped, now it's raining lightly.

    I dont know if it's winding down but it's very light now with small flakes. I'm glad I got up and saw it, maybe there will still be some out there when the sun comes up but, back to bed now.
  9. gravitylover
    Yup, it's happening here now. Big flakes, no wind - looks great.
  10. gravitylover
    It's snowing nicely. Over .5" so far with nice big flakes.
  11. gravitylover
    No fog. Please...

    Yeah like he said, it's not everywhere on this side. I'm in the high 50's for annual and 40+ for February. It's usually the opposite but I cashed in this month.
  13. gravitylover
    ^^ Hmmph. Does this snowpack that seemed so dense and durable make it to the end of the month?
  14. gravitylover
    What i thought was a really durable snowpack isn't. This 50° sunny day is killing it. There's water running down the streets like it's a summer thunderstorm. I havent measured but I bet I've lost 8-9" in two days.

    Just a slushy coating on branches and existing snow but it whitened the edges of the street banks a bit so I'll take it. It just flaked for 2 or 3 minutes as the back end went through and now the sun is coming out. Yay sun
  16. gravitylover
    Just a wee slushy coating on leaves and existing snow today but that makes it something like 17 or 18 days with snow this month. My p&c says sunny for the next 3 days, I don't believe it. Nope. Rob + PUI = Color me surprised

    It's snowing nicely now. 40/33/SE3/SN- I'm so glad that a couple of people that report on COCORahs in Westchester get it or I'd look like a slantsticker.
  18. gravitylover
    Will you come help pump my basement out as it floods when that happens? Yeah, I didn't think so. We need a slow melt...

    Just before the flip to rain here it snowed incredibly hard with massive flakes. The final 30 minutes put down well over 2"! As it flipped I was outside and measured 5.5, less than 10 minutes later it was under 3". This goes perfectly with the 2.5-3" reports here.
  20. gravitylover
    How about 50+? It's been a good month.
  21. gravitylover
    When the street 1200 feet away disappears I think of it as moderate, when the street 750 feet away goes away it's heavy and when the next block over disappears I go outside and groove on it
  22. gravitylover
    It was colder than it's been for a while, I went through ~25 more gallons of heating oil in the last 6 weeks that the same time period the last few years. And yeah, I'm over 50" for the month and it's been a workout Is there a good way to search for your own posts for a particular time period? I don't keep notes so I need to go back and find where I mentioned my storm totals and add it up because I think I'm forgetting some stuff.
  23. gravitylover
    I got 24.
  24. gravitylover
    And they have the wrong tires. Even my sports car is a little monster with good winter tires but with the all season sport tires I run the other 3 season of the year I can't keep it from sliding off the crown of the road in 1/2" of snow. Be careful, with 4-6" of snow here and now it's raining the trees and branches are starting to sag badly. It's just a matter of time before branches start breaking off.

    I had a plow come down my (dead end) street around 1 and then it really started coming down. He had the salt spreader going but it was useless and everything is a mess. No pre-treatment here either. I think they figured it was just an inch or so and during the day at marginal temps so it would mostly take care of itself. That's not what they got. lol
