  1. Looks to be pretty much over here. Only got 3/4 inch or so.
  2. Steady snow here now. Grounds covered and salt trucks are rolling.
  3. Finally the snow has commenced here. Light, but at least its snowing.
  4. Maybe this on the 20th? Probably be shoved 200 miles north or south of me till the 19th lol.
  5. Looks like some pretty cold air moves in after that storm on the 16th and suppresses everything to the south again. Just so hard to get everything to line up for big snows nowadays it seems.
  6. I wouldn't chance shoveling out in the cold air even if you are feeling better. My sister and her whole family are really sick with this crap right now and she had to go to the hospital yesterday for oxygen. I would get someone else to do the shoveling.
  7. On the border line of 4 inches here. At least I can shovel the sidewalk.
  8. Since Saturday? Man Bubbler you are a gamer. When I get sick enough to run a fever I don't care what ensambles look like anymore. I am going to bed.
  9. Well driveway is a varitable skating rink after last night. Not sure what to do about it. Might have to find someone to spread salt on it. I don't have that much salt lol.
  10. Hopefully you guys out east get hit with that sleet bomb that moved through my area.
  11. The heavy sleet has finally arrived. Ground white in no time.
  12. Oh, but the 16-17 storm shows promise!!! Till about the 14th lol.
  13. I remember them flat out saying "there is no question, this is going to happen" a week out. None of this scenario low track stuff you get nowadays. I have live here my entire life and that is the only time I came close to getting stranded out on the road. Had a meeting the morning it started, in Breezewood, and tried to get it done and over early, and get home. I tried to tell my father we shouldn't try it. Mistake. It snowed so hard the couple hours we were in the meeting that we had to shovel the car out to try to get out of the parking lot. Then barely got home and had to run the car in the snow piled up along side of the road and let it set. The memorable part for me was the wind Saturday night. Hurricane force winds and pounding snow. House made noises never heard before, or since. Storms like that and 1996 ruined us old guys lol. People are like "Oh big storms a comin! " We are like, yea, I guess if you say so.
  14. Cold temps hanging on here. 30 degrees and light freezing rain. Looks like about a half inch of sleet last night then freezing rain on top of it. Looks to be around a 1/16" inch of ice or so. If we hit a high of 49 today like they are forecasting it's going to be melt city.
  15. Yep, guess we better get the generators gassed up.
  16. Hey hey we have a January thunderstorm going on here right now with snow on the ground. Wow, big time Thunder and lighting! Interesting.
  17. Wish I had a supply of wood but I don't. I used to burn wood and till I bought it, cut a split it, and used as much as I did it wasnt worth it. But hard coal was 100 a ton back then. Its 300 a ton now. 29 Degrees here now and I feel like spring has arrived lol.
  18. Yep that will do it. Not a cloud in the sky here. I heat my garage with coal and can tell how cold it was overnight by how many shovels of coal it takes lol. Generally its 1 shovel full in the am. The other night I had to throw 3 in it. Last night it pretty much completely burnt up and I am having to almost start from scratch. It was pretty dang cold last night going by that.
  19. I think it got as cold here last night as it did the night before. NWS shows -9 right now, AW shows -6, and overnight low for Bedford CO airport Airport was -14 again.
  20. Wow that is crazy. At 8:30AM I had -9 on my digital temp gun so I guess that must have been accurate.
  21. Wow 9 years for CPA......I know its been pretty disappointing for a long time IMBY. Nuisance 4-6 inch snows. I seem to be in one of the worst spots for big snowstorms nowadays. I consider big storms over a foot. This 10 inch storm we just got is the best in several years. Big storms go to the North, South, East, and West of me mostly.
  22. Temp gun showed -9 earlier but could be off a couple degrees. When it gets that cold a few degrees doesn't matter. Its freaking cold.
  23. Picked up another 1.5" last night. Been snowing off and on here all morning.
