  1. Awesome! Congrats and best wishes going forward.
  2. Not quite as south as Roanoke, but looking back at my records, Dec 2010 was a fun month. 12.6" snow, 19 days of SOG, 13 days with a 'T', 8 days with measurable snow and only 10 days snowless. I'd take a repeat. And yes, it snowed on 24th and 25th here that year, about 3 inches total.
  3. Yep. Been a while since we've had a snow fall and accumulate on everything and STAY. Usually we end up with 20-30 mph winds after and it all gets blown out/off.
  4. Two edged sword. It beats down what snow you have on the ground, BUT it has a lot of staying power and is there long after the snow is gone.
  5. That was a nice workout, shoveled the driveway and sidewalks out. By driveway I mean a paved 10 foot by 1400 foot area, lol. Plus, the sidewalks and stairways. Hasn't crossed freezing all day, currently 30.8/28.3 with a drizzle/snizzle thing falling since the snow stopped around 11 am.
  6. I'm in-between Covington and Clifton Forge, had 5.3 at 11 am.
  7. This takes slant sticking to a completely different level!
  8. Now WHAT would make you think other-wise??
  9. OK, I called it. Sent a snow total report to NWS Blacksburg about 10 minutes ago. 1.5" on snowboard at 11 am, added to the 3.8" at 7 am, a 5.3" total. 5.0" OTG currently. STILL a few flurries and snow grains falling, but it isn't gonna add to the totals. I will say models and NWS did a good job here, forecast was 4-7". MOST models had us in 4-6" range, a couple outliners in the 6-9" range.
  10. Takes that back, snow has picked up and on radar a decent batch to my west to push thru, I'll wait a bit. WAS gonna measre and send in a snow event total to NWS Blacksburg, maybe later. Eyeballing where I've cleared earlier guesstimate 1.5 has fallen since 7 am.
  11. Had chicken and taters for dinner last night, so that determined this morning's late lunch/brunch. Tater cakes, bacon and toast with homemade blackberry jam. Or, as I refer to it when I make it, the biege/tan meal. Oh, this is not banter, lol. Looks like snow has lightened up a good bit in last 15, we may be done here. Still below freezing at 29.0/27.9.
  12. I was kidding but appears I'm right....sadly.
  13. *First day in school for the little one in the future* Teacher- "So, again, explain your name 'Reekbok Snowtread' once again??"
  14. Wishing you and family the best! You'll have to pick a 'snowy' type name for the baby!
  15. You could have left the 'Dusting of snow' part out and still be correct.
  16. Yes it is! When I did CoCoRaHS this morning at 7 am I had 3.8" on 0.36" liquid, about 10.6 to 1 ratio.
  17. Pic from front porch about 30 minutes ago.
  18. 11/11 0.1 11/30 0.1 12/02 0.2 (sleet) 12/05 3.8 Total 4.2
  19. Forgot the most important part, measured 4.5" when I got back.
  20. Just in from a short Jebwalk, beautiful out there! Snow has stuck to everything. Still a light snow falling at 8 am.
  21. 3.8 inches on the snowboard at 7 this morning. Still snowing, 28.7/27.6.
