  1. This dry slot is killing me Smalls. I am right on the western edge of it. Why is it that dry slots always seem to be undefeated?
  2. Eye balling on the snow stake - we have about seven+ inches right now here in New Hartford.
  3. Looks like the dry slot is winning here in New Hartford right now. Hopefully we can get that out of here quickly.
  4. 33 here and all snow. It's on like Donkey Kong!
  5. NW CT and the Berkshires have seemed locked in for a couple days on this. I really hope that holds - ever since I moved back here 5 years ago, everything has been pretty pedestrian. When we built the house, we bought a great cabbed John Deere tractor with a 5 foot blower on the front and haven't really been able to see what is can do.
  6. Just looked at the 12z EPS and it looks like a lot of the lows are racing to get to Ireland for ST. Patty's day. Very different from previous runs. Hopefully just a blip.
  7. 2-3 inches here on the grass. Hard to really measure with it melting out from underneath.
  8. 37/31 here in New Hartford at 1,000 ft with the wind coming from the SW. Hopefully something starts to give otherwise we will be sticking a fork in this one.
  9. Bring it! It is time for NW CT to live up to its reputation for being the snow capital of CT.
  10. I hope this does hold serve and I finally get a larger storm out here in NW CT.
  11. This one is a mailbox mauler. There ain’t a mailbox in sight that is not bent, twisted or missing and they have not cleared the shoulders yet.
  12. Looks like a bit of everything falling out of the sky here in New Hartford with 3 inches of concrete on the ground. 31 degrees right now. This should be interesting to snowblow…
  13. Well we do have a little bit of DP to work with as it is currently 19 here, so if we can shed a few degrees before the precipitation starts, we might have a window to see some wintry stuff.
  14. Any day now, I'm expecting to see a grumpy old guy step up to a podium wearing a hoodie with cut off sleeves declare " We are onto December" whenever a question is asked. I think even Gandhi would be throwing his hands up in the air and slinging four letter adjectives regarding this winter.
  15. So far pretty much a net zero outcome here in New Hartford. I think we needed 1100-1200 feet to see a net gain - 1000 not quite enough. I think I need a taller hill.
  16. Bring it on - I could use a little pick me up! I do need to get diesel for the tractor - really long driveway about a 0.25 mille lone. Cabbed tractor with a 5 foot snowblower for the win!
  17. I grew up in Norfolk where cashing in is just the norm - we always beat everyone, but that has not been as prevalent in recent years for Norfolk.
  18. Liking the general trends here. I'm heading into my 5th winter here and I'm at 1,000 feet which has not been much of factor since moving here. I came from Ellington to New Hartford and hopefully the elevation will pay off this time.
  19. Welcome to Western CT - sooner or later we will regain our winter glory. The past few have been remarkable for their unremarkableness.
