RedSky Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Second round of flurries and winds have been gusty currently 36F a decent winter day Day 7 with snow cover it will hold through the weekend it still pays to get the snow in January, same time period in Feb would have erased it already due to sun angle.

AnthonyDabbundo Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Note: the last two times a Peyton Manning team made the Super Bowl, we received a snowstorm within 3 days after the game. February 9-10, 2010: 15 inches (SB was Feb 7th) February 10th, 2014: 10 inches (SB was Feb 9th) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I used to collect baseball cards) But yeah, this would be the best time with Peyton in the SB and possibly his last game. Buyers may get all sentimental and overpay.

I took a walk early this morning and there's still a solid 9-10+ stack currently. Nice piles of snow as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buyers may get all sentimental and overpay. I will send the link in a message. Listing it on Monday as I get no listing fees beginning of month. Not sure I'm allowed to cross-link on the forum. I would be happy with whatever I get for it....it was pulled from a pack so. Obviously not expecting book value....generally 1/2 of that is what you realistically get. I used to 'collect' back in the 80s and 90s but these days I "rip and flip"....buy a box or case and sell everything. I generally break even but about 20-25% of the time I make a small-moderate profit. Maybe 5-10% of the time I will take a small loss. I'm obviously not retiring off of it, but every little bit helps to pay the bills. Gotta be willing to take the chance these days as packs aren't $.50 any more. A box can be as much as $600+. High risk-high reward tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a general 9-10 in the backyard as well. I was eyeballing the first post and estimating from my Wednesday measurement when I was at 12 inches.

The upside is the rain will wash all of the rock salt from the roads. As far as the snow pack, meh who cares if it's gone. For me it's like getting a new plate at the buffet startin' fresh again.

The Iceman Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Any flooding potential on the mid week system? Most models spitting out an inch of rain on top of the snow pack, seems like there may be some minor flooding potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBasile Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Won't be much snow pack to worry about here come mid week. It's really taking a beating today. Currently 57.5F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedSky Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Scratching my head on what happened to the cold February, after Wed local forecast is 40's through the weekend that is a significant change. Can't trust the weeklies as last week they looked great for this month into March today they have gone abruptly mild after week 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
