  1. Yes he is. And for those that can't handle a little sarcasm and play, especially in banter...there are ways to avoid that.
  2. Well, I'm gonna get to report a "T" tomorrow now too, a nice little snow shower passing through and the board is covered again. Only got an inch from last night, the bigger stuff went south of me, but it is still white..... temp 27.5/18.9 and winds NW at 6 gusting to 15. Wintery
  3. Another dime.... 12/07 0.5 12/08 0.1 12/17 1.4 12/25 2.9 01/16 0.1 01/17 0.3 01/19 0.6 01/25 0.5 01/28 1.0 Total 7.4
  4. I know up north they were hoping for more moisture, I just needed about 2 degrees less on the temp side...... 1.68 here, which shatters the daily rainfall record. Old mark was 0.75 inches (and 8.9 inches of snow) from the second of what I call the 'twins storms' from 1987. Temp ran between 32.9-33.6 the whole time it rained here yesterday and overnight.
  5. Still with the nickel/dime game, but least it is something! 12/07 0.5 12/08 0.1 12/17 1.4 12/25 2.9 01/16 0.1 01/17 0.3 01/19 0.6 01/25 0.5 Total 6.4
  6. Just turned in a 0.4" ob to NWS Blacksburg. He was surprised it was still snowing here..... um, radar?
  7. Yes, there are two that hang around my property, they can do some SERIOUS damage to a deck in short order!
  8. Hey! And the horses are upright too! Approaching 0.5" here, and coming down at a decent rate! Again, a small oopsie on the forecast of sunny and 46 for this afternoon. 32.4/30.7
  9. 17.0 for the low here this morning. Currently have light snow falling (oopsie on the forecast) and 33.3/25.6. Just a light coating so far. It did run up to 36.0 before the snow started falling.
  10. Only take her in summer until you are ready to make your move for permanency
  11. I compromised when we built here, I had my eye on a lot on airport road at 3200 +- elevation. Ended up here at 1300 and, well you can guess the differences. That lot is for sale again, the guy that bought it never built on it. If I was planning on staying here I'd be in line to purchase.
  12. I went back to 07-08 season (the CoCoRaHS period, as I call it) and these are the longest streaks of at least a T of snow reported daily 12 days 12/21/12 - 01/01/13, 3.7 inches total 11 days 12/31/09 - 01/10/10, 4.3 inches total 10 days 02/27/13 - 03/08/13, 5.1 inches total 09 days 01/21/11 - 01/29/11, 2.5 inches total 09 days 01/16/14 - 01/24/14, 6.3 inches total 09 days 03/07/18 - 03/15/18, 3.0 inches total 08 days 12/02/10 - 12/09/10, 2.7 inches total 08 days 01/12/12 - 01/19/12, 0.4 inches total the last is my favorite, ALL 'T' except one 0.4 recording.... so the 7 days is not as uncommon as I first thought... I am sure if I dug into the 'paper hard copies' from 80's 90's and 00's I would find more too. I need to spend a day or two on a vacation and get those into an Excel spreadsheet, it would be easier than what I am doing now, digging through years of paper records.
  13. Just what kind of wind would it take to produce -120 WC with a 40 temp? 200 mph? EDIT- I checked, site won't give WC values for winds over 110 mph, but at that level the WC is only +21 F!!
  14. Well, I caught the very northern part of that south slider, flurries past hour with a car/deck topper and currently 30.5/23.2. This after catching the very southern end of the snow showers yesterday morning. Currently at 6 days with flakes from the sky, tomorrow's report will be 7th. All light stuff, the grand total over those days is 1.0 inch, but least it looks pretty falling.
  15. Time for a 3rd thread it appears....
  16. Looks like I am going to penny, nickel and dime my way along here! 12/07 0.5 12/08 0.1 12/17 1.4 12/25 2.9 01/16 0.1 01/17 0.3 01/19 0.6 Total 5.9
  17. Round two has gone thru here, I am up to 0.6" for the day. This is what NWS Blacksburg put out just as the 2nd round started falling...

  18. Had a snow shower roll trough in last 40 minutes, dropped 0.3". Least things are white lol! Still flurrying and 32.2/29.9. This past week feels more like winters past, flurries, snow showers, clouds and cool temps.
