  1. I got everything scraped/cleared out, then went to town. Amazing difference. A few spots there were almost bare ground, I still have 4 inches, plus all the snow still hanging in the trees and shrubs. Less than 5 miles and 300-400 foot elevation difference.
  2. We've definitely been in the 'sweet spot' to start this winter!
  3. It was cold! You should do the right thing and put a blanket on it to help keep it warm.
  4. Only down to 21.0 for a low, think the clouds keep us from dropping further. Currently 21.3/20.6 and cloudy with 4.5 inches of snow OTG. The 5.1" that fell yesterday is a new daily snowfall record, breaking 1988's 3.5".
  5. 11/11 0.1 11/30 0.1 12/02 0.2 (sleet) 12/05 3.8 12/06 1.5 12/08 0.5 12/09 5.1 Total 11.3
  6. OK, I THINK it has finally stopped snowing (at least accumulating) so I'm gonna go see what is on the board to get a final number. It has snowed for a bit over 18 hours straight! Be right back... EDIT- so another 0.5" since 7 pm clearing, that makes the event total 5.6". Just a HAIR over 4.5" OTG.
  7. @Bob Chill, ditto here. Holler if you need an extra pair of hands with anything.
  8. You've got a right serious set-up there. I (and son) made snow for 8 or so years. We used two 25 gal Porter Cable air compressors and 2homemade snowguns and 2 homemade snowfans. He was into snowboarding (still is, now lives in Park City) and I knew where he (and his buddies) were all winter lol. The amount of water and electricity was way up there though......
  9. Ditto here. Snowing, nothing major, but snowing a bit. I can see the snowboard from the back window, guesstimate 0.5-0.7" has fallen since 7 pm clearing.
  10. I've had a 7" and a 6" sleet storm. That stuff stayed around FOREVER!
  11. I didn't go far, just out to bring some more wood in from the wood shed, but it is beautiful out there! Still lightly snowing from 5:30 this morning. You are colder than I am, 22.8 here.
  12. Yep, I seem to be in the 'sweet spot', at least for now, lol. It is still lightly snowing with 10dbz returns overhead? Amazing.
  13. Well, although the radar returns have decreased in last hour plus, I still have a decent light snow falling . Cleared the board for 7 pm reading, 1.8 inches. Adding the 0.5 at 7 am, the 2.8 at 1 pm and the 1.8 at 7 pm gives me a 5.1 inch event total, 0.5 for yesterday and 4.6 for today. There are 4.5 inches on the ground. A bit of an overachiever, forecast was 2-4 inches. Temp continues to drop, now 23.2/21.8.
  14. Have we ever had a year where the tie-breaker cities beat the regular cities in snowfall?
