January 13-14 Ski Season Savior

Cleared 1.5" (0.13" LE) from half the board at my 9 PM obs time - 20° at that time.  I woke up at 3 AM, temp up to 32 and lgt/mod ZR/RA with little accretion.  The cleared half had another 2.2" while the catch bucket held 0.69" LE and the 9-3 SN wasn't 3:1 stuff - that's a sleet ratio and I don't think we had any.  The change probably occurred in the 1-2 AM range, maybe earlier, and I had to guess at the snow's LE for that period.  Though the after-9 snow might've been 3"+ at change time, I've reported the depth measured at 3.  Another 0.43" between 3 and 7 for total SN/RA LE of 1.25".  Still some RA- with temp 33 and a bit of ice on some branches.  I almost wish yesterday's forecast of 47 this afternoon would verify, as that would settle the mess some, but the forecast high is now 39 and I don't think we'll even get there.  Hoping to deal with it 2-3 PM after some of the liquid has drained from the glop.  Up to 11" at the stake at 7 AM.

Drizzle here, but temperature seems to be going down and didn't make it anywhere near the upper 40s as forecasted (currently 35.8). Unless we get more significant melting the rest of the day this will be a net gainer for most if not all ski resorts, even the ones like Bretton Woods that generally do really bad in these setups.

Well, my driveway is a shit show. It's basically dirt. So I have giant mud season type ruts, then it snowed on top of those ruts, then it rained into the snow. And the plow pushed a nice little damn at the end of the driveway. Now I need to see if I can shovel this shit show before it freezes solid and my car is locked in the driveway until the next thaw. 

Totally loving this winter :/

It was hard to determine my exact snowfall as it flipped to a mix and then rain after I went to bed.  My guess would be about 2.5", maybe 3".   As I expected the temperatures during the rain was 33-34F and my high this afternoon was 41F.  It is now dropping back into the upper 30s.  The ground is white so it will at least look like winter this week and my pond will make for good ice skating.  

Total snow this winter 33".  I really  did well with the Dec 17th?  storm.  19" helped my total.
