It was nice to wake up to a snow coating on the cars. Last for the season?
-
.45 and 41°. Yuck.
-
I guess now I'm glad I got a small heating oil delivery the other day.
-
I think most of you guys are N and W of this firehose, I'm on the fringe and it's been pouring for a while now. I guess we need it but... This weather does nothing good for a bout of sciatica I've been fighting for 2 weeks
-
I heard a few pings before sunrise but if you didn't see it happening you would've missed it because it turned wet pretty quickly. I've been kind of surprised at how good the reservoir levels are recently, one of the big ones is still really low but I think that's because of work being done. Ground moisture is also better than I thought it would be with large areas of standing water high up in watershed areas and good volume in the local creeks.

I've been wondering what it's like in the woods, I've been nearly hobbled by a bout of sciatica and can't do shit My local ponds are all maxed. I guess we had enough snow and ice to soak the upper layers and it all released. Now we need some real rain before the trees start leafing out.

It was 60° all the way up to an hour north of Watertown this afternoon when I was there. It's cool that there's still 2+ feet of snow on the ground but it's mostly melted back far enough from the roads that they're dry.
-
My running 30 year average was 40-44 leading up to that period. I don't think I got over 50 but last I remember I had calculated a bit over 48 before the 3 duds.
-
3 duds in a row. Blah
-
Yup just had a nice squall move through. Hmm, will this be the last coating of the season...?
-
Pretty cool squall moving through now, left a nice thin coating.
-
Boy, sometimes you come up with some dumb shit dude.
-
This wind is going to dry out the newly thawed surfaces pretty quickly. With no rain of consequence in the near future we're going to be looking at some pretty serious fire danger soon.
-
Uggh
-
The sunny parts of the house are 5-10° warmer than the rest. The thermostat is back in the shade now so the heat will kick back on any minute. The cold can go now, it's ok.
-
I saw that post earlier and one of the comments was a snowfall chart for something like the last 100 years. There were plenty well over 100" but there were more Zeros. I lived there one year and it was about 90 in town and near 300 at the ski area but two years earlier was nothing, they're really inconsistent.

He's hugging himself to stay warm

I was in SE CT when the front went thru, temp went from 62°>44° in just a few minutes and there was a light squall as it dropped through the 50s. That was cool.
-
Yeah I should've clarified, only melted areas that aren't flat are drying
-
Yep. Other than shaded areas it's cooked. The melted off areas are drying out quickly too.
-
Wet is good, better if the ground thaws first otherwise the only beneficiaries will be the reservoirs and downstream users.
-
The low level salt haze tastes like shit coming thru the vents. I especially like the poof of salt dust when cars change lanes.
-
Big patch melted out in the front yard and is greening up already Everything else is still 100% cover. This stuff ripened in no time, really surprised me. I thought the ice cap would hold stronger but that couple of tenths the other day screwed it up.
-
Same and 3+" everywhere else.
-
I noticed yesterday that the 2 big reservoirs below my house are full for the first time since September 2024. One of them even had the overflow open with a trickle happening.
