dryslot Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 salt is 1000 times worse for the environment bro Potassium chloride is what should be used around vegetation, And if you have to break up any damming, You can throw some potassium or calcium up on the roof, And watch it runoff like rain once it kicks in.........

dryslot Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Close 10" now. After a break the upslope is starting to kick in and the vis back under a mile. Sledding was awesome this morning. This stuff will add to the base, Club is out panning, Once this sets up, Look out, It will be fast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceanStWx Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Well see how long it lasts but it came on pretty strong. Vis is under 1/2 now with awesome snow growth. May tack on a couple more inches. Further proof that our obs tell us very little about that area of NH. BML is 5SM and HIE 1 1/4SM. Basically if either is dropping below 2SM there is some heavier stuff going on in between. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically the same thru out Western Maine, I have rode the border several times in the higher elevations and ride thru snow showers and rime ice regularly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure it helps that I'm staying on the First CT lake at ~1700ft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowgeek Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Nice big ole piles! When my super nice neighbor comes over with his snow blower to help, I mostly extremely grateful (especially as I get older), but part of me wants to say no thanks so that I can make awesome piles. Ice Cream Truck is getting itchy for spring. Deck gets super loaded when snow slides off of slate. Luckily I built it to hold several tons of snow.

Nothing more fun than owning an ice cream shop. It's a blast. We renovated the truck last year (it's a 74 Ford). We use it for festivals and catering wedding and stuff.

On the flip side, when it goes bad in Tolland, he tries to paint it bad for everyone else too such as when all his snow melted around Christmas and people to the northeast were keeping it but he was yelling bare ground up into CNE.

It was more than that...but nice try. I even posted a pic that day from ORH with about 3" of glacial pack. Natick had some swiss cheese, but it wasn't only half an inch on average. Sometimes you melt out and places to your north don't...its called climo. Deal with it. Regards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
