Reply #25 - Feb 27^th, 2011 at 12:20am Jamestown is just over 150 inches for the year and Syracuse has had more. Buffalo was less than 100 the other day. 150 for us isn't unusual though. Still, even I'm getting tired of all the exercise. Charlie

Reply #26 - Feb 27^th, 2011 at 3:59pm Gee, I almost hate to post this but.... We just spent the weekend in Columbia SC. The weather was glorious, and they are calling for a possible record breaker tomorrow of 84!. Got back home to Jamestown, NC today, temp is in the upper 70's. After weeks and weeks of being about zero - Sigh - life is good! Sandy

Gazing out the back window yesterday, mine and the several backyards in view all had low spots puddled from melted snow saturating the ground. A couple of robins were perched on a fence and flew through. Gettin' springy.

Woke later to three inches of blowing snow. But yep, spring is in the air, nobody was out shoveling; a resounding fuck it, I'm through with this crap.

Some nice sun today, anyway.

Sorry, not enough to shovel, and certainly not enough to fire up the snow blower. It's melting, slow but sure.

I saw my first snow of the year this morning whilst flying down from Auckland to Wellington. It was on the peak of Mount Egmont (Multimedia File Viewing and Clickable Links are available for Registered Members only!! You need to

or

) which got it's first dusting of snow over the weekend but only around the volcanic crater (8,261 feet). It's not errupted since 1755, but a minor erruption is well overdue and a major one is almost due.

It's all signalling the end of summer here. Sad

Rainy here. It's actually beginning to look a lot like early spring--no crocuses yet, but the male redwings have returned (haven't seen the females yet--they arrive later) and the yard has been hopping with robins.

All in all, it looks promising in Idaho's "banana belt" along the Snake. Still deep winter in the higher elevations, though.

Best,

George

Reply #38 - Mar 12^th, 2011 at 8:42am We got very tiny, soft balls of snow, not flakes. I can only think to call them sleet, but not sleet, which is more like icy rain that gets slushy and hale is harder, these are soft. Mid-March so either soft-pedal lion or the start of lamb fleece. Is there something snowy called fleece? I don't know what it's called.

Graupel, perhaps?

Damn glad I shoveled. Charlie
