canderson Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 Snowing quite good here right now. I’m guessing this was a 1.25” event - very surprised and pleased about the early morning returns and having to leaf blow the sidewalk. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those types of days have really piled up this winter. Regardless of snow totals, I've really enjoyed this winter season. I want to comment on this - we've both (and a few others have well) uttered similar things over the past couple of months. It really comes down to perspective and gratitude. I could choose to come on here and say "this isn't fair, Virginia's got more snow than me!!!!, or, and this could be me speaking - "my undeserving but incredibly lucky family members who all live in the stupid Rehoboth Beach/Lewes DE area are now at 200% of their seasonal snowfall average and it's only 2/12!!!!" Or alternatively, I could say "this was to be a crappy winter pretty much wall to wall with maybe a few week stretch of winter if we're lucky, but instead we've already had a LOT of cold, a LOT of snow events (even if most have been light), a lot of days with snow cover, and quite possibly more on the way." I don't have my numbers in front of me but one of the past few winters I went an entire season where my temperature fell below 20 degrees TWO TIMES. The lowest temp was 16. And then there was the winter with about 1" of snow the entire season. And that year wasn't to be as bad as this one was forecast to be. I just wish people could enjoy what is happening. Just enjoy this. Don't worry or get angry or whatever because of what isn't happening. Open your freaking front door, walk outside and behold the beauty of winter 2025. 3 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That batch has been showing up for days, and seemed to sit n rot just west of the LSV. Nooner NAM says it comes east, but as we know, the NAM can be a bit overzealous in its qpf distribution. Hoping it's onto something, as some more afternoon mood snows sounds great to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My driveway had a coating, but my yard is green, other then the frozen sleet spots the sun hasn't hit. I put yesterday in my notes a trace. As other mentioned, really different vibe this year compared to recent others. Its been wintry, i like it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many get so affixed on digital snow, that they forget the real stuff is or has fallen... Is'nt that really why we as snow lovers....do this?? I don't look much during events. My time is being out in it, or looking out the window. I also think that as we age (like fine wine of course), we adjust perspective and see the good in things for that they are, and not worry about what they aren't. Digi snow has been the source of much agony for many of us. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a sub that neighbors ours that seems to have a lot of posters who are jealous/resentful towards us. I don't get it. At least for those of us in the LSV, our climate is very similar to theirs. We typically do better in March storms but there are many events that they do as well if not better than we do. They're ahead of us this winter. But reading their comments, it's like they think that we're at 97" for the winter. They have a perception that just isn't true. The thing is, there has been posters who have shared thoughts here...Hoffman, Mappy, Chris and others. All of us have welcomed them openly. But if one of us goes down there ( @Ruin) they get pissy quickly all because of the false perception that they have. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back in the day, I'd spend a lot of time in their thread, and try to "prove my worth" - add value to the convo/disco. Was fun for a while, but man they are a bunch of whiners and can really muck up a good thing, so like Mitch....I left. Our crew has picked up the ball of late, and I'm more than happy to be right here. They know where we are if they want to join in, but I think many know that were not going to stand for the bafoonery that i remember all too well in there Sub. Hopng that has changed, as there is some real talent down there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all live in ski lodges and kayak down mountain streams all summer. Those buildings look very much like the one that we stayed at in Mammoth. Speaking of Mammoth - 50-70" fresh snow expected tonight into tomorrow. Gotta love the forecast "snow...maybe heavy at times, total daytime accumulations of 33-39". I hope if they're expecting 3' of snow just during the day tomorrow that it comes down pretty good at times. I mean, to get to 3' they need to average like 3"/hour for the entire day... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
