  1. Indeed. The 15" I received this past season on top of the whopping 11" from last season want to know when the madness will end.
  2. 2 years in a row with decent Napril's. I suppose sh*t winter = tolerable April. I'd rather reverse that though.
  3. I've often wondered who Sam Hell is. Dreary and 58F here at work.
  4. You talking about that area that was completely washed out in that pic a few weeks back? That was insane.
  5. ...This has pretty much been a pretty decent Napril. If I recall, last Napril was decent as well.
  6. I refuse to believe this. The property taxes on our place in the Adirondacks is jaw dropping.
  7. I love the urban shots just as much as the woods/ mountain/ lake shots.
  8. ...I only spoke to a couple people who didn't bother with viewing the eclipse due to, "what's the big deal", and "who cares, it's just the moon passing by the sun, it happens". I guess I don't understand or connect with this kind of mentality. Is it just me or is it too geek to be pumped up about, and enjoy something like this on high euphoric levels? I don't think I'm in the minority when I say, these events are WELL worth viewing if you can, and this eclipse was so much better than 2017 for obvious reasons.
  9. Moose knuckles dragging in the snow.

  11. ...A place to donate your used solar eclipse glasses: https://astronomerswithoutborders.org/home
  12. Yeah, some of those pro-looking shots are awesome, but even the low budget looking pics are pretty wild too.
  13. ...Pic from my cousin who was in Syracuse.
  14. Imagine not planning appropriately, and ultimately being stuck in your car while the eclipse passes overhead.
  15. I loved that storm. I was 12 years old. We picked up 18 or so inches south of Albany where we lived.
  16. This seem more like an underground weapons experiment from China. They tried to hit Manhattan, but were off by a few miles.
  17. Can't wait. Non-stop Dew wishcasting incoming.
  18. I know how you both feel...I was 15" 7 weeks ago, and am still at 15" today. Just too much winter to handle. Make it stop.
  19. Ride into work seemed to show off all types of Frozen Precip. Rain last night, with some sleet mixed in. Sleet pelted for a bit, and I almost became aroused. When I left Lava lake @6:00am, as expected there was nothing to show for winter precip. I drove off into the darkness through a depressing, very light rain, 35F, and meh. The hills of western Pomfret and Eastern Eastford had a light dusting of snow along the sides of the road. Temp was 33/34. Traveling on through Ashford, and into Uconn territory the precip was light rain, but at one point the temp was slighting below freezing, and I think I hit freezing rain for a bit. Moving through Coventry into Bolton Notch, precip picked up quite significantly as moderate sleet was falling @34/35 F...coating up the surfaces. This caused minor excitement and a bit of movement in my pants, but not sustained. Here in Manchester light snow is falling @36F. Was moderate snow earlier. With the exception of a few gusts overnight, so far the event has been mega-meh as expected in these parts. Edit: Coming into Storrs was the most "damage", but really not much. A few limbs in the road, most had already been cut to allow traffic to pass.
  20. While some up north have a shot at a decent, final round of snow, for most of the forum winter weather is finished...For me, it was finished in mid-February, as the season went out with a bang, pounding me with an entire 1"...I think from a cold squall line. The grades (all items are equally weighted) Overall Seasonal Snowfall: F Picking up where I left off last season, I ended up with another meager, seasonal total...15", which was only 4" more than last winter's disaster. Snow vs. Rain: F Rain was king Staying power/ (number of days) of pack: D- What little "Pack" that I had did manage to hang around a bit. Local winter enjoyment: F Temperature: C Cold was there, but just not at the right time. Snowstorms/ events (quality/ quantity): F My biggest event was under 6"...Not even nude-worthy. Overall Grade: F Again, a failure of a season, my second full year at Lava Lake, but I'm sure the "so much potential" crew will chime in.
