KamuSnow

Had a few flakes here 5 minutes ago, in a pause now. 32F, dp 22.

Getting the toe on the boot that some models showed.

Likewise. Much healthier. It was 26 here, came up to 28. Looks like virga in the area.

Lol, exactly.

Same. Another piece of it is learning to let go of things you can't control. Sounds good on paper, but it is a real thing. eta - but I still love snow, and I'm really enjoying this month.

#1 - hang in there. Imagine, 2 years ago you were thinking of Moving to Montana. #2&3 - good luck for both!

Oh yeah, that was a bad feeling. Still sucks but we're better at handling it now, lol. Aren't we? Mostly the rug pulls now are less of a surprise if you pay attention.

You can sense the snow excitement in the air, we're getting some mileage out of the lead up to it, lol. But seriously.

Just get out of the way when it comes back down, lol.

I remember when I was very young doing a dance with my brothers outside trying to get the rain (which had been snow) to turn back into snow again.

Lol, or what? Will you shake your fist at a cloud?

Mine are at 1 to 2" with hopes for an upside surprise.

Could be...hardy har har

Here is the latest version of the snow pile, taken just now. It's 7'6" high, which ties the record from 2014. Yay! It's pretty massive too, and while historically snow piles here have never lasted past March 31st, we shall see! Did not really think this opportunity would present itself this winter, so no complaints here. The snowpack here at its thickest is about 8".

I don't care about roads too much for tomorrow, I'm hoping that whatever we get will help me get through next weekend with some semblance of a snowpack, which would be the icing on the cake for this month.

True - I ran into Don Saleski in a gas station way back when, he was waiting for his car to be inspected or something, and we talked for about 5 or 10 minutes. Just a regular guy attitude.

Yeah I've been thinking about that too. This month has been awesome. Hoping to hold onto some snowpack thru the end of the month, which would be notable. I'm somewhat susceptible to cabin fever, etc. by the time we get to this time of the year. Like last winter was basically 5 months of brown and drab, and looking forward to April which seemed far away in February. This year (and even a normal snow year) is much better - snow on snow etc., changes up the landscape, looks beautiful, and next thing you know spring is right around the corner.

I'm about to go out and do some snow cleanup touch up. Don't know about anyone else, but with the amount of sleet we had down here this has been a labor/exertion intensive process. 3x the effort of last week, which lines up inversely with the 3:1 ratio for sleet (vs 10:1 for average snow).

I laughed but be safe!

That was a really good year. I was a fan of Dr. J, long story but I had a baseball glove that he signed for me, lol.

Good icicle making conditions.

Yeah you're right - Sixers won in '83. Still a good year!

I played a little when I was younger, but not so much as a youngster. It was the Flyers who got me and a lot of others interested. I was around for the 1974 Stanley Cup, and it was just awesome. Philly sports in general had been on a bad run for years, and they captured lightning in a bottle. People (not Flyers fans, lol) make a big deal out of the Broad Street bullies aspect, but they had talent. I remember leaving a Phillies game during the Flyers playoffs, and everyone was singing "B-B-B-Bernie and the nets" to the tune of Elton John's "Bennie and the Jets", such a good time. People in Philly knew they had something special, but I think elsewhere people were surprised that they won. I was in Montreal during the summer and people told me they were rooting for the Flyers after Montreal got knocked out, probably cuz they didn't want the Bruins to win, lol. That was the beginning of a nice run for our teams culminating in 1980 when all 4 teams made it to their respective championships. 2 out of 4 that year wasn't bad, although I was still heartbroken when the Islanders beat the Flyers in game 7 on a goal that looked offsides. P.S. Bernie was referring to Bernie Parent, who was one of the best goalies of his time. They won the 6th and deciding game against Boston 1-0 (at home!). I can still picture the winning goal, a shot from the point that dipped and Rick Macliesh had his stick down on the ice and tipped it up over the goalies shoulder. Lol, that's my trip down memory lane, thanks for the inspiration!

Nice video Tony! I enjoyed all of it, thank you!
