You better wait until it warms up to do any of that stuff ,Deep Deep winter until mothers day this year, And with the 1-2' of snow next week that you are getting in CT, You won't be able to gather up all that wood in time go go go

Oh hell, heading out back to stack it right now, will be done by 3, can't wait to start chopping it combined with Sandy wood..........good to go for years!

That's just a travesty. Awful yard.

Yeah its beyond grotesque right now, can't wait to put in the ornamental beach grass, rose of sharon and a killer perennial garden across the back fence.  Putting in a beach garden to the side of the deck...lots of grasses, lavender, and other sandy soil loving perennials it will smell and look incredible!!  Can't wait to take before and after shots.

We actually did the same thing to our yard when we moved in here 10 yrs ago...there was too much shade and almost nothing would grow...it looked rough for a couple of years, but it's really come along...

LOL at the few hanging on for that elusive April snowstorm while the rest of us know it's over....

 

I get measurable snow in 72% of Aprils...we have an anomalous setup over the next 10-14 days that would increase the liklihood of snow versus regular climo.

So I should toss it all and say no chance of snow? What would be your outlook from my viewpoint?

For your backyard, no.  You live in possibly one of the best spots for April snows outside of the Berkshires. It becomes highly elevation dependent from here on out.... (simply talking SNE-RI, CT and MA)  For the rest of us living on the shore, lower elevations etc, anything over an inch is becoming highly unlikely.

I don't see any of those people hoping for snow and nrn CT certainly gets measurable.

This one flew over my head.

On a serious note, 3ft with blizz conditions would be cool, but I find the wind to be annoying because of snow measuring issues. I had 18" from the blizz, which is still impressive, but I enjoyed my 1ft storms with lighter winds more. I know I'm probably on my own there, but it's the truth.

I got to enjoy a NNE no wind dumping last week it was sweet but as you know I have a drift fetish. Growing up on the coast I grew fond of wind swept snow storms.

Didn't you and I get some crazy band 2 winters ago that gave us a few crazy hours of mega accum's? The night I was getting bent out of shape thinking there was sleet falling but it wasn't.

yep in Jan 2011 I talked you off the ledge just prior to that 8 inches in one hour. I documented that well here too with fuzY pics and radar caps.

It's climo in most interior areas.

Climo always generates good discussion around here.  I often wondered about people's thoughts on a per storm basis, and then saw this thread the other day.  Fairly decent talk:
