Too Damnby early for snow
I can't believe we already have to deal with snow! I had 2 inches last night that was frozen solid on the car this morning. Now another maybe 5 tomorrow into Sunday. Makes fro a long winter when it starts so early.
I remember a foot on Thanksgiving one year but significan't snow before Halloween is pretty rare in my lifetime.
Anyway , it sucks dealing with the white stuff so early.

I think that foot was in 1971, if I remember correctly.

Pretty sure it was 1989! I have a pic of my Dad right here taken on Turkey Day 1989......snowblowing the driveway and it looks like at least a foot!  |
Almost time to get our fish on!!!

Cape Ann was speared the snow. Heavy rain and winds gusting to 43mph., and just seven miles away they had four inches of snow. Drove around the city earlier and there were no trees down and never lost electrical power. now we just need to dry out. air temp was 35 degrees and ocean water temp is 54 degrees which prevented our area from getting snow with winds coming off the ocean.

Snowtober snow totals - Google Maps
Good Map for snow totals, fortunately for us in SE MA, it was mostly an inland event.
