Logan11 Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 OVC and 39 here now.... I had a nice snowy hike yesterday in the southern Dacks. Only about 25 miles north of the Mohawk River in northern Fulton County it was another world with snow and a half inch sticking to everything at 2200 feet. It was freezing at that level. Not sure what they got ultimately, but it was coming down good when I left around 2 PM. Non accumulating snow at 1500 ft and then I drove right back to mid 40's and ovc around here. I've been getting reports of you saying unkind things about me. Be a man, say them directly to me instead of hiding and saying them behind my back.

ski MRG Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 EC ens say nyet What are the chances we don't see 1"+ before May 1st. I'd say less than 20% chance it remains that dry. Maybe 10%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan11 Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 It doesn't matter to me. I'm very happy to be rid of the mud so early. Things always even out and we'll probably get into a pattern at some point with T storms and deluges that make up the deficit very quickly. What are the chances we don't see 1"+ before May 1st.

powderfreak Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 It is still precipitating at a steady, moderate pace. This is nuts... lots of rain in the last 24 hours in town and a whole heck of a lot of snow from 2,000ft and above. One helluva upslope event.

powderfreak Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 BTV's liquid total through midnight was like 0.03" of liquid for this event... while 10 miles east of them will have 2-3" of liquid equivalent. Just incredible meso-scale forcing going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Torchey Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 Another day brings yet again nothing but blue skies, smiling me nothing but blue skies do I see. Things are getting dire, danger lurks with every cancer stick thrown with abonden. We need weeks of sustained rain, we have passed the point of no return. Leaf out has not even happened yet, God help us, another KFS homerun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leaf out has not even happened yet, God help us, another KFS homerun. From one side of New England to the other... what a difference it makes. Currently looking at streams that are at bankful and it has been raining steadily, heavy at times, for over 24 hours now. No fire danger up here, but the mud is getting interesting again.

I agree, I am actually not going to water anymore,and telling clients that have sprinkler systems to turn them off, its a losing battle. This way I can relax down in SC on the beach and have no worries, how about that forecast down there????!!! Sun and 80 all week, enjoy you're BD fronts miserable east winds Scooter! Perhaps you can take a dip in CCB? I am sure the water is nice and toasty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed, yesterday's milfburn really brought it close to home only two towns to my east. I would imagine the NG will be called in soon, thinking about planting a few cactus for clients, should be an excellent summer for them here in the tropical south coast.

eekuasepinniW Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 Pittsburg NH is fooking cold. The lake elevation is almost 1700' I believe. One of the most beautiful areas in New England. The usual iceout date for the First CT lake is the first or second week of May. The Third CT lake is about a mile south of the border and just under 2400 feet up. I don't think anyone keeps track but that lake probably has had ice on it into June before. I've seen knee deep snow in shaded areas by the Deer Mountain campground as late as May 18th. Good area for Ski MRG. Also hands down the best area to see dozens of moose in a single evening in the spring as they come out of the hills to lick the salt off the road.

Granted there's a big rock underneath so these spots always go first, but I've never seen them go this early. Lawn's been cut twice already this year.
