Otherwise, it doesn’t matter to me what the rest of you measure! I have already accepted that @Cashtown_Coop will always win! I was thinking most of Lancaster county had picked up as much or more than him this winter. Maybe I am off with that thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said earlier, please post here in our friendly group! Its funny how some consider PSU and Losetoa6's environment as seemingly Green Bay Wisconsin like. All the somewhat illogical discussion down there and the best defense for "stick a fork in it" is that today's is the last day of Met winter. No mention of that. LOL. Early Spring has been pretty much cancelled by all the medium range models including for those in the MA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TugHillMatt Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 The Mid-Atlantic forum is the most unfriendly, exclusive one of this whole forum. We in the Upstate NY forum often joke and chuckle about their winter demise...mostly because they're just so ugly. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will flat out ignore you if you are from another region. My true region is here in Central PA as I fall under CTP's cwa, but the Philly forum has no problem with me posting over there as I live a scant 5 miles from the county line with Carbon, which is in Mt Holly's cwa. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My brother and his wife live in the Pottsville/Orwigsburg area. That area could easily fall under CTP, PHL, or NYC forums. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made a totally innocuous post couple years ago to someone who was moving to VT (or getting a second house maybe) with some general info on climo and a link that I thought would help and someone posted right after "don't get why people from different regions are still coming in posting". Something along those lines. I certainly wasn't popping in to rub in some big snow dump. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheDreamTraveler Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 front yard was flooded out today because of all the rain and the ground saturated from the melted snowpack the past few days. haven't seen it that flooded since summer rains from 2019 since it didn't even rain last year lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mount Joy Snowman Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 1.16" of rain for me yesterday. Sump pump is not running so that is a win ha. My February totals check in at 4.21" liquid and 18.2" snow. Seasonal snowfall sits at 33.4". Looks like we dry out for the extended period, with a couple splashes of anomalous cold mixed in. Should be pretty boring for the foreseeable future but we'll see if March throws any surprises at us, she usually does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pawatch Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 0.55" of rain yesterday. Snow is almost gone, close to bare spots now. Was reading Buffalo averages 16" of snow in March. And they are down 7.3" of snowfall this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canderson Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 It's nice of the wind to kick in 4 hours prior to the advisory start time. Gonna be a long, long day and night hoping my siding/flashing doesn't get ripped off (again). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voyager Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 1 hour ago, Bubbler86 said: Hopefully roads dry so no ice. It's not the roads, it's the loads. Unlike hazardous liquids, or even food grade like chocolate or sweeteners, water is not as "touchy" with the loading and unloading process. Therefore, it's much easier to get wet, especially when unloading. Sometimes the trailer doesn't completely empty out, and we sometimes get a leg bath when we pull the hose. Now we could close the valve when we detach, but if we were to forget to open it back up and it freezes shut, were screwed and can't reload until we thaw it back out.

I recommend you start hauling chocolate and deliver to my house. kthnx 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing that needs decided is if MDT goes below 10 Sunday night does that count as "this winter" or has MDT secured their no nights below 10 record at this point? LOL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
