The Little Storm That Could - March 3/4

That was a brutal cleanup... Temps got above freezing quickly and we started a icy mist that really compacted and weighted the snow down.... 30" snow bower and it still took me 2+ hours to clear the driveway (200 yards)... halfway shot of the driveway...

4.5" of fluff on the board this morning. Not bad. Depth at my stake (in the shade) is 38-39". 

It was sunny an hour ago, but now we're cloudy with some light snow grains that aren't showing up on radar. This is probably a weak orographic response on the backside.

Congrats to the SNE crew! This was supposed to be our storm 2-3 days ago, but you took this one right out from under our feet. ;)

Dude, you're nuts!  You need a front load tractor or p/u with a plow for a driveway like that.

Dang it. No snowblower?

just found out my brother lost a friend who died on Saturday shoveling.  

Still waiting on a part. That sucks. I always feel like death after the first shoveling of the season. Right now I feel like I could do another 2 driveways.

That sucks, I thought about that this morning but I can't lift just push thats why I was up all night, easy snowblowing until the rain for 5 minutes which instantly flashed to puking snow. Sad for your bro

I was on the mix side of the storm. Kingston had a 12.5 inches. I got about 4 inches of everything. Trying to get it off my driveway, i thought I might die. And that plow pile, for the love of god, it was the size of a 12 inch storm...i am def going to feel this in a few hrs

When I was in Norwalk I had TEN 1 foot plus storms this century alone through 2013 2014 winter!

Moved to Easton and although this will be my only below average snowfall winter (unless we get hit again), have not reached 1 foot yet. Kind of odd. Norwalk had at least 1 in that period (2016).

11.5 2017 thunder snow, 11.5 2016 blizzard. Odd I cant reach it in Easton after 10 in Norwalk.

Anyway last nights storm was great even if only 8.

17.25”  JACKPOT  In 11 hours.  45” Season.  

 

It snowed 2.5 hours after my final 17”.  :snowwindow::cory:

3.5” or better Rates lasted slightly Longer than February 7, 2003, but not 2 straight hours of 4” per hour.  But more Snow (14” vs. 17.25”).  

 

2 years in a row with March Quick Bombs.  I want to Thank ORH Will for predicting when I was at 12, that I would hit 16-18.  :arrrg::clap:
