    Looks like the woodstove is gonna keep on chugging.

    So, jogging around CoCoRaHS site yesterday and today to check my records (all basically stored there since 2007, all previous is on paper and a chore to look thru, I need to spend a day and place them somewhere electronically) and found this gem from 2014- an incredible event.

    Hmm, looks like @stormtracker has picked up a new (or maybe just unknown to the masses) name, persons of power!!

    Yep, I think the last 3 nights it has done that here. Windy/breezy during the day, but once the sunsets the wind gusts go into overdrive!

    Low was 9.4 at 7 am. Temp stayed in low teens overnight as the winds cranked in 20's and 30's (and WC's in the -10 range). Finally wind calmed to under 10 mph late and temp dropped to low right at 7 am CoCoRaHS reading. I passed on doing a SWE this morning to give myself and the tools a break, lol. The 5 inches of concrete just isn't enjoyable trying to get thru and up. Temp still dropping, 8.8/-0.1 at 8 am.

    One thing I will say those are some high-quality graphics for such a new model lol.

    Yep, FINALLY a few hours early this afternoon where it was decent to be outside without having a -30 WC. A mostly cloudy to partly cloudy day, hit 24.8 for a high, but as I said felt like 70 without the wind. Now here we are back to fighting WC's. Currently 17.7/4.5 with NNW at 10 gusting to 22 mph and seems to be increasing every few minutes. WC 6 to 1.

    And still just 2 or 3 good models.

    So that's where snowmobiles come from??

    MUCH warmer this morning at 14.7 degrees vs the 1.8 yesterday. Mainly because we clouded over after dark last night (along with some flurries) and the wind. Had a 41 mph gust. The 1.8 that carried into next day until about 8 am NOT a record, that still stands from 1987 at -4. Currently 22.0/8.2 with W 5 gusting to 12 mph winds under partly cloudy skies. WC 16 to 10 degrees.

    Congrats Danville, 3 years worth of average snow!

    Is one of them the return of 'new'?
  14. wxdude64
    LOL, that isn't happening here until mid-June with all the west coast hockey playing.

    Just a quick question @Buddy1987. You having gusty winds last hour or two?
  16. wxdude64
    I asked the same earlier. Mine was 4.3 on 0.10. Yours is even worse, or the driest snow ever.
  17. wxdude64
    Wait. 4.3 of snow on 0.10 liquid???

    Jiminy Christmas!! Just had a 5 minute 'gust' roll thru, 35-41 mph from WNW the entire 5 minutes. Where did that come from?!?! At 23.8/10 that made the wind chill 5 to 4 degrees. There is another starting... 32, 34 mph. Sheesh.
  19. wxdude64
    Only 7-8? I figured a '1' would be in front of those two numbers minimum.
  20. wxdude64
    Right at 12:30 pm I have 21.1/3.5 under VERY sunny skies, amazing how bright/reflective sun is off this stuff. W wind 11 gusting 28 so still a WC of 9 to 3 degrees. Forecast is 24, so I may run by that too before the day is over. OK with me, I still have a couple spots to 'clean up' where I shoveled yesterday.
  21. wxdude64
    Beautiful!
  22. wxdude64
    I had 1.85" yesterday and 1.82" this morning. Heavy stuff! Best part is unless forecast and trend changes fast it will do a S L O W trickle into the ground instead of running off in one day into the rivers and out to sea.

    The mini blizzard doesn't worry me as much as the ice chunks flying off. That depends on the consistency of the snow. Fresh dry/fluff will blow off. Crusty or old snow will break off in chunks and becomes incoming projectiles!
  24. wxdude64
    1.8 was as cold as I got from 5 am thru 8 am, it bobbled between 1.8-2.5 during that time. Now that sun is out and winds have turned SW? I'm at 8.8/-3.0 at 9:45 am.
  25. wxdude64
    Yep, that is what happens 95% of the time. Sleet doesn't 'add' to OTG for a good while, it relentlessly beats whatever newly fallen snow to a pulp, reducing it by up to half depending on how fluffy (dry) or hard (wet) it was prior to the flip, and how hard/fast/heavy the sleet is falling. Once it reaches a compacted consistency, THEN sleet starts to add to the OTG totals.
