  1. How was it? Looked like it popped up over the river...
  2. A lot of ctc lightning here, nice orange blob on the doorstep to the west. Currently 48F.
  3. 1st mow today, probably the 1st March mow since we've been here (9 years). Green feng shui either way :-)....
  4. Some light wet snow just started here - 39F, DP 28F. Yay snow!
  5. Had a few flakes mixed in here too, so it didn't go by unnoticed at least.
  6. Heard peepers last night, and had our 1st groundhog sighting yesterday. Nice today, 55F and sunny, with a little bit of wind.
  7. Don't know about elsewhere, but it's been pretty windy here at times tonight. Forecast was for 10-15 mph winds but there had to be gusts up to 25 or 30. We had a kettle fire tonight and the wind in the trees was roaring at times.
  8. I can handle the cold as long as there's snow involved, otherwise at this point, 40's at least would be fine. Today was real nice.
  9. Spring fever is in the air! 43F here so far.
  10. Looking forward to 40's and sunny here, for outside work! Made it to 24F here, currently 31F.
  11. Someone the other day mentioned it being called a ratter in the NE forum. So maybe winter of rats azz?
  12. Look on the bright side, we got an extra day of meteorological winter this year.
  13. Wow - that's good! None here yet, although I did see a couple of flowers on a forsythia out back last weekend.
  14. Not too many in a row though which is helping the buds etc to stay on the down low.
  15. I'm ready for 50s and 60s soon if it's not going to snow. I think the long stretches without snow to liven things up make the winter feel longer. At the same time I'm kind of glad it hasn't been too warm for too long, it seems to be helping the buds etc. to remain semi-dormant. Spring flowers in February probably wouldn't work out.
  16. Back in 1971 they had 2 feet on Thanksgiving so I drove up there on Friday for the day. I went one other time and it had rained, froze, been "groomed", and you really didn't want to fall cuz it was like skiing on ice cubes, lol.
  17. I think it's 500 feet (max)? Back in the day I liked Elk Mountain - a further drive, but not as crowded and about double the vertical drop.
  18. There were more double digit snowfalls in the suburbs. Many of the Nor'easters gave an additional 50% or more snow to the northwest suburbs than where they measured in PHL. For example, Dec. 24 1966 has PHL at 12.7", in NW Delco we had 20", and Chesco had 24" I believe. Pretty sure there were one or more coastals with snow every winter from 1960-61 through 1966-67.
