If it was snow it would’ve been 3x as much. I think snow water equiv is the biggest factor for staying power. 1” sleet or 3” of snow...same thing. Although maybe the snow can sublimate a bit faster. 

I wish it were snow, at least you can actually do fun winter things with the snow. Instead I have to send the kids out with helmets, knowing that when they fall and land on what is a solid glacier, they won't end up with brain damage. I think the layers of freezing rain have helped preserve it as well. There is still a solid 2 inch pack with a layer of ice in areas that don't get full sun, sunny areas just have the occasional ice burg.

35" this morning.  Monday's 1.9" had only 0.04" LE, so depth is back to Sunday's mark.  It's solid, too.  The 11" carried over from December probably held 3" water, and we've had 7.5" LE since then, with at least 80% (and probably closer to 90) still there - likely approaching 9" water in total.  Getting to be time to take a sample, and with all the layers and crusts, that will be a challenge to measure accurately and not wreck the outer tube of my Stratus.

Always curious as to your surroundings. Do you have any outside pics of your property you could share?
