BRSno Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Maybe 1" of snow/sleet max before the washout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dryslot Posted December 29, 2015 Author Share Posted December 29, 2015 First time seeing and playing in snow for our foster rescue Buck. I tossed his ball and he slid about ten feet each time. Just a 3/4" cover here but still fun. Was probably 2" but the ground was to warm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

walthsnow Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Ok. I thought it was just me. I'll take powder for the rest of the winter please. Absolutely. Even though we had to shovel a ton last year, the snow was powdery. I'd rather that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Sleet changed over to half dollar sized flakes as H75 level cools off now. Around 5" total in town and at the mountain. No real orographic or elevational advantage with this one given precip production was so high in the mid-levels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OceanStWx Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Definitely verified a nudge towards the warmer solutions aloft. Though that's no surprise with a SWFE. The sleet is always closer than you think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Kind of fun watching it go back over to snow...its cold but getting big wet aggregates from the warmth aloft. When it lightens up, it goes back to IP but as soon as a steadier burst moves in its back to flakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
