Imagine being a weenie up there. Non stop tracking. 

This year but they have terrible years too, last year and the year before they had very little. Of course, to him very little might mean a foot on the ground, but they get ratters too.

The biggest issue the last couple of years has been the lack of any sustained cold. I’m not in the NEK or Pittsburg but even here getting snow to fall wasn’t the problem. Not warming up to 50° two days later was the problem. It’s hard to maintain trails when the ground never really freezes.

Not sure, I've never been actually in Pittsburgh, Buck Rub looks like a decent place though, I know when i rode near there a month ago, There was plenty of snow.

Buck Rub is probbly the only decent lunch/dinner on-trail stop up there. it does get pretty busy, and trails right around it are usually beat to shit. I am heading up there next week for the week

Their terrible years are still near 100".

Saw some daffodils popping on Branford point yesterday. It's coming.

High yesterday was 33, stopping the run of 32 or below at 35 days.  Now we'll have 4 days well above 32, but the month should finish at about 2° BN.

Big gradient in snow pack around 128. Really got thin as I passed the 93/95 change near Westwood. Even in Dedham it was getting thin but it got beefier back in Dover/Sherborn. 

[ORH_wxman]

There’s actually a chance for an inch or two on Thursday morning for near pike and especial northward. The front end of that weak system has trended colder.

There is another gradient on the north side of 128...once you hit Woburn and especially Wilmington.

I don't think mine will be...main roads, sure...maybe the area under my pine tree, but I think I maintain mostly coverage.

[Sey-Mour Snow]

Up 8 on yesterday already should hit 50 for the first time this year..

Good. No sense of maintaining it with nothing but rain on the horizon.

[CoastalWx]

Some hoods still all snow with several inches while you can plant gardens on the sunny sloped ones. That time of year.

Yeah I don’t see the shaded sides of the street going here. We (and esp you) might even pick up a couple inches Thursday morning too.

I cut through some residential neighborhoods in Quincy on the way to work and it was getting the look where sunny side of the road was getting beaten up pretty bad while shady side was still full cover. 

[ORH_wxman]

It’s too bad we couldn’t get that clipper to slide underneath SNE. Pretty vigorous-looking…could’ve been a nice little event. Story of the year though…nothing really trends correctly. We had a couple trend south of us and whiff earlier this winter…didn’t get the north trend when we needed it. Now we don’t get the south trend when needed. 
 

This winter has felt like we left about 70% of the potential sitting on the table.

Doesn’t even look like much rain . Just meh boredom. I highly doubt that colder Nam solution verifies for snow Thursday

I just want it done. I don't want to have any hope...nothing. Just get this over with. If I knew we had a good stretch coming up then I'd be all in. It's a slow bleed out. Like blowing up a balloon with your fart and releasing it slowly with a nice squeak on Ray's face.
