vinylfreak89 Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 feels a lot like feb 10 after going outside. 1.5 " new snow so just shy of an inch an hour... snow depth is 3" including the 1" of snow/sleet that fell earlier... snowboard was cleared at 1 PM and it only has 1.5" on it.... so.... what should i call that? I'm guessing it took a while to accumulate on the board because it didn't have that sleet layer, so how do I officially record that? 1.5" of new snow or 2"?

frostbite_falls Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Ahhh...thundersnow. Combining my 2nd and 1st favorite weather features in one package...actually brings out a very peaceful feeling in me. First lightning/thunder heralded the transition by about 30 seconds...now snowing nice and hard, and thundering every few minutes. The wait and false starts this winter are now all worthwhile.
