IrishRob17 Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 Embrace the warmth, it will be a distant memory by the end of the week. That snowpack was getting stale anyways. Our snowpack was anything but stale up here before Saturday but its a moot point, its all gone now anyway. Mud season is fully on right now, thankfully that is about to change.

Pitmaster Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 shockingly and in spite of high temps and pouring rain- I still have a couple of small piles of snow left on the side of my driveway- thus ensuring a bit of a white Christmas LOL Happy Holidays to all!

gravitylover Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Umm yeah. That's at 10:1 and if the temps are anywhere near as low as forecasted those ratios should be more like 15+:1 so that 15.8" showing in Danbury (closest to mby) would be more like 23-25. Is that total snow depth including what's already on the ground or ...? If it's not the 56" at Stowe and the 70 at Mt Washington are pretty impressive.

jdt Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Storm details far from resolved imo thus snow depth equally far from resolved. My take on guidance from last night thru this afternoon is this event has increased potential to deliver a significant and cold winter event. It is, however, still to early to discuss amounts or jackpot zones. All I am 100% certian of is I am going to be stacking extra firewood on the rack in the garage before that bitter cold hits.

snywx Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 Looks like areas in the HV will benefit from the initial WAA snows prior to the main event.. A snow event is a good bet right now.

jdt Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 Out of curiosity what stoves are people burning? I burn a Lopi Endeavor. For the most part it easily heats my modest 1200sqft ranch. It generally keeps the main living area in the low to mid 70s and the bedrooms a cooler comfortable sleeping temp of 65-70. I usually leave the thermostat at 63 thus it rarely kicks on other then for hot water. Though with this cold pushed on a hefty wind a few slightly drafty windows will push the stove to its limits thus boiler will supplement it. All new Andersen "new construction" 400 series going in in the Spring so any drafts will be gone next heating season!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would recommend them every day of the week and twice on sunday. As for a wood burning I'm still working on that. Hopefully by next winter!
