gravitylover Posted 23 hours ago Share Posted 23 hours ago Man... This could be over now It did get lighter for a little while but then ramped right back up about an hour ago. Now it's pounding small flakes, drilling into everything, on a stiff NE wind. At least the visibility is better because the flakes are so small. Pretty much the only engine sounds are snowblowers, chainsaws and quads and only one plow guy has been down my street all day. I stepped a few feet into the front yard and went in up to my crotch. There's a lot of snow out there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BxEngine Posted 23 hours ago Share Posted 23 hours ago My snowblower is on its absolute last leg. Leaking oil from a few spots, now only 1 damn tire spins so its even harder to control, and it takes forever to warm up enough to not die when i release the choke. Had a nice run, made it through this storm. Heres to home depot deals in march lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bottom few inches were very moisture laden but the rest was very fluffy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gravitylover Posted 22 hours ago Share Posted 22 hours ago Snowblower? Mine looks suspiciously like a shovel. It never leaks, it's lightweight and easy to handle so if I twist and flick just right it has a pretty good throw distance. If I twist wrong the shear pin still breaks though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It works great! I keep up with the maintenance on it and use fuel stabilizer. I use the Sno-Jet spray to prevent snow and ice accumulation in the auger and discharge shoot and it really helps when there’s a wet/shulshy snowfall. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CPcantmeasuresnow Posted 21 hours ago Share Posted 21 hours ago Final here 15.3 inches. I certainly can't complain with more than half of Orange county under 6.

gravitylover Posted 19 hours ago Share Posted 19 hours ago There's a bunch of 18-19s east of me but they missed the best of the def zone dump that sat over me for hours. This one has bigger drifts than the one last month but, because it's so much warmer, compacted and condensed quickly. Did I break 20? Probably but there's no place on my property that wasn't badly wind affected so I'll never really know. I think my back has aged out of fully appreciating 2 blockbusters in a month Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gravitylover Posted 18 hours ago Share Posted 18 hours ago Update; Looks like there are some 21 and 22s within a few miles on 3 sides of me so I'm going with it. 2 storms put me at the 1981-2010 average, the clipper parade before the storm last month put me over the 91-2020 average 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IrishRob17 Posted 4 hours ago Author Share Posted 4 hours ago My snowfall is now slightly above normal for the season. I noticed last week that for the first time, possibly ever, my running snowfall average (41.2") is now below what is considered KMGJs (42.2"). The past few years has really been eating into my seasonal average snowfall. So as it stands now, this seasons 44.5" here is the most since '20-'21s 53.8".

Where do you get the Montgomery airport snowfalls totals from? I thought like Poughkeepsie, which stopped measuring a few decades ago for good reason, that Montgomery doesn't measure snow. Let me know if you have the link, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe someone came up with an average based on old COOP data by the Crist brothers in Walden best I could tell. I'll have to think on how I came across anything to use for KMGJ, it might have actually been Accuweather. Whatever it was it appeared to update with the new 10 year averages a few years ago as I recall and is broken down by month. While I always took that number with a grain of salt I was impressed with how close it was/is to my running averages. If/when I figured it out again I'll reply here. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrishRob17 Posted 1 hour ago Author Share Posted 1 hour ago @CPcantmeasuresnowI'm looking around a bit now, it might have been part of the NWS NOWdata under Montgomery but its not there now. I remember when I came across it I was surprised and again took it with a grain of salt. I must have found it a few years ago again because I just came across this little spreadsheet I did 10 years ago that shows the 30 year average (KMGJ)which was higher than it is now, 43.3" then and 42.2" now. The 10 year averages were my own measurments. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
