Our snow pack is now down to about 11 inches and we are losing a little more each day. Our forecast for the next few days is calling for warmer temps than originally given. That’s fine with me. What’s even better is that there isn’t much in the way of precipitation predicted over the next week or so. So maybe we are turning the corner on our winter weather. We shouldn’t complain since February brought us the only real winter…
Our morning began with about an inch of new snow on the deck, but it was already melting so no shoveling was necessary. It is now almost gone. Temps were at or above freezing all night, so what snow did fall was very wet. There were large flakes of snow falling when I went to bed last night and I’m seeing reports on CoCoRahs that it turned to rain overnight. I’m not sure if it did here but I’m thinking…
Our morning was sunny and bright, but now some clouds have moved in. We have another weather system moving in tonight which could bring us another inch or so of new snow. This happens almost every day and we need for some of it to melt before we get anymore. We’ve been feeding the birds as well as the deer since I think they have a hard time finding food with all this snow. I know the birds are at…
The sun is out today and that’s a good thing. Unfortunately, it isn’t warm enough to melt any of this snow. In fact, we received another inch overnight. We continue to have about 15 in of snow cover and it all accumulated from these snow showers that we’ve been getting every day. I’m ready for some days in the 40s or 50s so that it can start melting. At least the snow on the deck is gone. Thank you, Mr….
Our skies have cleared somewhat and we have a mix of sun and clouds right now. Temperatures are definitely warmer than what we have had and the two inches of new snow from last night has now increased our snow cover to 15 inches. We shoveled the deck early for the dog and it has now melted down to wood. We keep getting an inch or two almost everyday and none of it melts. My heart goes out to the…
We got a break yesterday but it’s now snowing again. The forecast is calling for only up to an inch and I hope it’s right. We really don’t need anymore. Our snow cover is still at 14 inches. We did manage to get shoveled out and the plow went down our road today. So we’re good for a while. Temperatures are expected to get a little warmer each day and we should finally be above freezing by early next week….
It was -11F when I got up this morning. Since then, the temp has rebounded to 17F The sun is shining brightly although it isn’t expected to last. More clouds will move in by late this afternoon and we can expect a little more snow. We aren’t supposed to get much, maybe an inch but that’s enough to keep the road slippery. Highs are expected to rise to the low to mid 20s which will feel like a heat wave…
Our snowstorm produced what was promised with a little over 7 inches of new snow to add to the 7.5 inches already on the ground. On top of that, it’s really cold. This cold is affecting most of the country, even into the deep south. I’m hearing that the wind turbines in Texas are freezing up and many are without power. So much for green energy. There is nothing like the tried and true. Our 10:45 AM temp is 14F…
I’m hoping that this is the last very cold day that we’ll have. Temperatures are suppose to start warming up over the next few days and return more to average. We are currently under a winter storm advisory with another 3-5 inches of snow expected before noon tomorrow. If that happens, we’ll have nearly a foot of snow cover. It seems like it has been snowing everyday since February began. We keep getting an inch or two every day. We…
The sun was shining brightly when I got up and hoarfrost covered everything. It’s such a glorious sight. I hope the sun remains all day even if temperatures are very cold. The upcoming forecasts are showing that this frigid air may finally pass and temps will be closer to average once again. Our forecast is calling for more snow flurries today and that’s what our Saturday produced. It snow all day with no breaks. Fortunately, it was light and only…
