Kind of par for the course, no?

Folks should be happy in SNE, They don't like pack anyways.

Lol.  While I like retention, I’m happy with continual replenishment.  Just avoid bare ground.  It’s a bad look.

Total wipeout at my office on the CT line.

Just lost power ftl.

At firs glance, my pack has lived to fight another day.  The other day might be today, of course.

Rain , of course, Wednesday, but room for positive trends with respect to the weekend. I think we will see it trend, but how much (enough)?

I should be at Pit 2---I suspect being further east my offset the fact that I'm further north.  We'll see.

Given how well it did for this weekend 12, 24,36,48, and 72 hours out, you have to just lock it in.

10.5” final!

Very long overdue.

Nice to have winter for 1-2 days here. Once we lose it on Wednesday hopefully it’s not too long till we see it  again  8.0” final 

After I finished shoveling, I went back to watching fishing videos.  I'm ready to go whichever way the winter plays out.

winding it down.  I wonder if if will melt faster than it fell.

Looks like we'll be wrapping up here within an hour or so. 

Hopefully we won't need to wait so long for our next snower.

Just dumping.  Glad I did the post round1 shoveling earlier 

About 3” since I shoveled.  Closing in on a foot.

Pounding now

Snowing heavily now.....hopefully can keep this going.

That area tends to get hosed more often than not 

Didn't Cory chase to Brattleboro a year or two ago?

It's easily accumulating even on treated surfaces.  The low early January sun angle is helping. 

3-week countdown until Tp's first 'warm butt' post.

Haven't measured yet.  Hope it hasn't compacted too much. 

The Pope blesses you.

Jackpot for this storm is going to be from ORH county to Ray’s hood. They’re even already setting up excellent bands for round 2 

 

Yup--can see it pretty clearly.  I'm probably 5-10 miles too far south from where they're setting up for anything really good, but perhaps I can get some crumbs.

Looking at the RAP and HRRR, looks like me might only wind up with another 2".  Maybe I'm missing something.  Thought it would be more--but good event nonethteless.

That growing blob in Worcester just reached me.  Back into it.

About 6” now in Holliston. It was closer to 5-5.5” when I went out about 90 min ago. So I’m def running at least a couple inches behind MPM in westborough. 

Intereesting......I'm not sure what was going on from start time until 4:30.  Perhaps I was in that band longer.

Meanwhile, not much happening now.   Hoping round 2 performs.  

Tackled shoveling the driveway….man-snow.  Felt like I was clearing a March storm.  Considering it’ll be gone and in the 50’s in a couple days just adds to that.

in any case, whatever we get in round 2 will be easier to clear.
