Pack is holding strong down here. Definitely patches of green showing up, but areas with 5-6” compacted, and I mean middle of the yard, full sun. Snow on the ground since 1/31/21; but I am excited to start spring projects.
Woke up to a dusting. Quickly turned to sleet. Now rain. Agree with @gravitylover it’ll be an interesting 48 hours to see if the pack can make it wall to wall February.
Just took a ride to the Chester shoprite; just epic piles of snow. 2014 is a great comparison for how much is on the ground currently.
2001/02 and 2007/8 winters in Albany were the most I’ve lived through. 105-110” those winters. But for NJ, this February has been incredible.
Moderate/heavy snow now. Salt truck went by the house at 10:45 a.m. (secondary road). Road is beginning to show signs of coverage. Early dismissal for my daughter's school is imminent.
Took a ride up through Byram Township, Netcong/Stanhope to grab some dinner for the family from Dom Jose (a decent meal no doubt) and I was impressed by the amount of snow/piles of snow we’ve got going.
This month rivals some of the greats in my opinion.
Mood snow continues. The pack is substantial.
Funny watching the dog hit full speed running across the yard, now that the base layer is solid; for weeks he had been following his own path. He’s smarter than he looks (or at least smarter than my wife gives him credit for).
