I also see people posting to the effect that what we have on the ground "isn't going anywhere"....well, it's going to be near 40 today and tomorrow here on the cp, so last time I checked, snow goes down the drain at that temp.

High of 35 for me today and 34 tomorrow Don't think an inch and a half of ice is going to go down the drain. Hope you're right.

Very low dews very low snow angle and you ain't hitting 40 next 10 days with  a refresher. Enjoy your cover it ain't going anywhere

5 inches at the groomer barn for 8 inch total pack, going to go out on sleds Sunday to start packing water holes and cutting blow downs hopefully.

Another 8 inches and we can dig the groomer out probably. 

Lakes will skim this weekend when the wind calms and then if it stays like that for a few days we'll have 4-5 inches of ice before the next storm. Fingers crossed!

Not all of it, but there will be some melting. I wasn't implying it would all melt. The hills are a different story.

Doesn’t look like there is much of anything about 8 miles to your south on satellite.

It was still dark, but seemed like it was just a dusting once I hit 128.

Ok. So I ask you again. Why do you bother being on here then? Don't you think that there are several of us who feel the same to way? But we aren't constantly bitching about it with every single post.

Chin up, pull your big boy pants up, and hope for the best. 

the ignore button is your friend. Put him on ignore like I just did and you won't have to read his bitching and moaning about everything.

Honestly, reading posts that are bitching about other people bitching brings the quality of the forum down the shitter.

How much did you end up with in MHT? 5-6"?

Storm sucked, but at least I have a modest bullet-proof pack, so can't complain (too much).

It is frustrating how the gradient is always JUST to my north.

Wx2fish and I have a friend in Bedford NH. He’s on the west side of town. There’s been a similar gradient between him and Bedford with these marginal events. 
 

At least you have something to make it look festive.

Yes...it was also huge to grab that inch of fluff at the end that a lot of SNE largely missed out on....covers up the rainy scars from yesterday evening...which as Steve said, us much more beneficial now than it is during March.

They had a good band for a while

I also need to vent about Wankum...man, I can't stand him...such a lazy met. I love WCVB, but he is tough to stomach...always offers up these half-hazard, overly simplistic explanations that are just patently wrong. I mean...I get dumbing it down for the laymen, but to keep insisting central Mass got the snow because of elevation is idiotic when many spots in eastern areas hardly cracked freezing, and spots in the VALLEY out west still had 6". Is it rocket science to explain there was a warm layer a bit off of the ground back east?? He also was talking about the warm ground from the fall...what an ass.

WTF? Several of what you said here is ridiculous but this just takes the cake. 

[weatherwiz]

That 10th-15th period...maybe even a few days beyond that could certainly be something to watch as we get some PV lobes thrown our way

I feel like they’ve been high before too

[CoastalWx]

But maybe they compacted? Maybe every 6 hrs tells the story.

Lol, that is definitely not true why they got snow. Oye.

So, someone can bitch... but we can't respond?? Makes no sense. If you're going to have one, you've got to have the other
