  1. I'm thinking that was for December. Had about 7 days here, maybe 6. Ninja'd by Iceman!
  2. Good chance of you making it to 31 at least, even with the rain on Mon. nite/Tues. Does snow cover for you mean 100% coverage, or would you count 90% with some sunny south facing banks showing grass?
  3. Down to 27 here (from 31 earlier) with a little leftover light freezing rain. Enough to slide a couple feet on the driveway with a small running start, and a little bit noticeable on bushes, but the bamboo is hanging in there so far, knock on wood.
  4. Lol, it was kind of funny. Freezing rain is making people cranky I think.
  5. You could count Sunday evening's snow for January AND February and get more bang for your snowbuck. But I know what you mean.
  6. I've got a little accretion here, no excretion that I'm aware of. SW Delco btw.
  7. Lol, this thread is all over the map!
  8. It's about 10° higher now (36°) than on Dec. 22nd, which can make a difference on blacktop and other darker surfaces, even on cloudy days. I never stress over it, it's just a piece of reality. It is kind of classic (later) February to have highs in the 30's on a sunny day with snow rapidly melting on southern exposures, and then get accumulating snow that night or the next day. I've had a foot or more of granular snow in shaded areas late in the month, with grass showing in other sunny areas. Some of that is in fact due to sun angle, I believe.
  9. Nighttime is a different story though. Feb. 5th 2014 we had freezing rain between midnight and 8 am, all between 30-32F, and lost power for 3 days. Of course there was snow stuck to trees from a wet snow a couple of days before, which accelerated the process, but we did get about 3/8" of ice overnight.
  10. Weenie radar shows it snowing here, but alas...lol. Still holding out hope for sleet. Sounds like south of us they're getting more sleet under the heavier returns.
  11. Not to nitpick, but everything I've seen said afternoon/evening...
  12. Probably, especially given that there doesn't look to be much precip after midnight.
  13. Yeah, lol. I was just gathering data to post. Temp. here is 31F, dp all the way down at 12, so I was thinking virga for a while. However, we're actually getting very light rain with a few small sleet pellets mixed in. Wtf, lol, I was hoping for some solid precip to start at least. Guess that warm air aloft is real.
  14. Looks like precip gets up to SE PA latitude and pretty much slides off to the ENE. Right now the radar is looking juicy enough south of here. .1" of ice will be enough to make things slick, plus here it will do a number on the bamboo forest. I'd much prefer sleet, or snow obviously.
  15. Lol, I haven't watched him, what exactly is "puncturing in"? Sounds like a shot/needle, for example.
  16. Yeah, probably. Ideally you won't need it but better to be prepared. Not looking forward to freezing rain.
  17. 25 after the hour he'd give a nice explanation of what was going on with all the nuances. Great for winter weather events, especially pre-internet.
  18. Did you have a pair of glasses with windshield wipers?
  19. Lol. The cold duck episodes were in the 70's as well. It had an innards warming aspect that beer didn't, while being thirst quenching at the same time.
  20. Appropriately named! Reminded me of many years ago, playing ice hockey on frozen ponds and having a bottle of Cold Duck stuck in the snow for refreshment...ah yes, lol.
  21. No, although I did cover it with a tarp once during a warm rain a few years back. Winters like this are the best, where you can keep adding to it, while it does some settling etc. in between. I'm not sure but I think this month so far is the best snow pile stretch since 2013-2014. And it's only been a week and a half, lol. Hope there's more to come!
