Yep---here, too---we have about 21/2" of wet stuff---pretty, but hard to move. Our garbage was picked up, but then I had to truck all the cans back into the garage---full of wet snow----oh, well, that's life. Hope you're better today, Patti-----the snowdrops cheered me!
Today's Weather in Your Garden - 63
coming down here for about an hour now
Bib flakes of snow, but they are not sticking. If it stays that way will not have to pay for plowing the driveway. Sorry Bill. bur we are east of you so maybe your snow will stick. It was predicted to come in 2 batches this morning, so afternoon may be different. 34°
Really raining now.
Wha, Still in bed, not feeling so great from my fall. Just sore. Nothing broken, but a perfect day to do nothing except play in the garden, mentally. Hope you get some white stuff so you can ski. I know others don't want any, but you do. Patti
just in from my power walk (no jogging here, knee is not better) and i think these bozo weather men have got it wrong again - barely snowing
31 and snowing moderately. About an inch so far.
Temp 31 degrees. Snowing hard again. Comes and goes.
Lake Erie is frozen over for the first time in 14 years!
i saw that about erie - global warming??
snowing to beat the band for the last hour - maybe the "bozo" comment was premature
It is snowing & sticking here as well--not sure about " we will see.
Just back from a Dunkin run. Still snowing lightly. About 2 1/2 inches so far.
I guess that my understand was the 'global warming' was a long-term trend that would be marked in the short-term by more storms and more extreme weather fluctuations. We seem to be having that in Seattle - last year we had what you're going through now. This year we're having balmy temperatures (as exhibited by what the poor Winter Olympians are having to endure) and virtually no winter.
That was the relatively recent 'prediction' - after they changed the term from global warming to 'climate change.' But they have completely covered themselves by saying that whatever we have has been predicted! What a luxury. There are countless videos on the web of pols predicting the end of snow in DC because of warming. Then last week they said all the huge storms they're getting are because of climate change. Sounds more and more like the local weatherman! 'Changeable skies.' 'Unsettled pattern.' 'Partly sunny.' Tough job!
Actually, I have followed this story since the early 80's when it was called 'the greenhouse effect.'
Whatever it is, we are getting a snoot full! About 6" right now & snowing very heavily.
only just over 3" here - just in from snow blowing to beat my wife coming home from work - hate it when there are tire tracks stuck to the driveway that turn to ice - still coming down hard - there will be skiing tomorrow!!
Extra light is getting noticeable! Sunrise 6:49. Set 5:31. Only a few weeks to daylight savings.
We didn't get much, not even a delayed opening.
You're not off this week?? We got about 2 1/2 total.
We were beginning to wonder when the kids were going to go back.
So you guys are not off this week??
Nope
Light wet snow for most of the day here, still snowing, about 4" so far. Plows running on the hour all day to keep up with the stuff for the rush hour tonight...
31°
I can hear the plows going past outside. Our driveway has been done. We are officially 4-7" but not sure how much will fall.
33*F here now, clear skies. We only got an 1" or so of dust last night, Thank You Lord. Ice damming on the eaves is still an issue here. There will be a lot of roof damage in the area. My FIL is getting a new roof this year, so next year the boys and I will install a heat tape on it. My upper roof is only 5-6 years old, but will require inspection of the eaves and possible heat tapes. My eaves are extended to help block over head sun in the summer, because of our passive solar, so my potential for icing is somewhat enhanced. Ric
Lost power for over an hour so missed some of the skating--drat. Japanese man had just finishe4d. Had the fireplace going & DH had turned off the computer.
22 now going to 36.. well as least some of the mess will melt away
20 here this morning - got about 5-6" yesterday
Sunny morning with light NW wind. Temp 27 degrees and should climb to upper 30s. We should get some melting of the 2" of icy crunchy snow from yesterday. Highs getting close or at 40 the next few days should help with deicing things too.
Enjoy your Xcntry skiing, Wha.
27 here and sunny
We ended up with 8"---the plowperson came too early, we have 11/2" in the drive & I'm not shoveling it---did the walk around 7 this morn, & am now going back out to do back patio----I hate snow---truly!
Sunny 30°
snowfall in our front yard was 5-6" Poor dear snowdrops.
32 expected high of 35 they are calling for a chance of snow tonight...are you kidding me???
I just read in our local paper that we have set a record snowfall for Summit County. 3" over the previous record set in 2008. And it is snowing now, with another 2" expected. I'm just thrilled...
36 and cloudy.
got warm in a hurry - did not get out to ski until 10 and only made it half way - snow was sticking to the bottom of the ski's - will have to try again earlier tomorrow - still walked the trails to clear off snow from over hanging trees
Just at freezing but feels warmer in the sun. Very little wind. Birds are singing this am.
Clouds are rolling in.
