Snow
So much for 3-5...I'll be surprised if we don't pass 7-8.
Pond seems happy though.

Radar shows it ending in coastal CT. I think 6-7 here, the storm did not spin up as much as anticipated

7" or 8"?More like a foot+ as it stands right now.
And the 1yr old snow blower sh!t the bed after 3 passes.The melt down was monumental,the neighbors wouldn't come out of their houses.I'm feeling real bad for Toro customer service and Home-Cheapo Monday morning...my meltdown will be news-worthy.
My pond is doing quite well.Do you have a de-icer?It leaves a beautiful hole right through the snow and I float it right over the filter so that its constantly drawing warm through the system.

Tried to get out of my driveway and slid 100 feet down the hill...backwards. Managed to somehow miss the telephone pole and stone wall.
It's going to be slick tonight.

Yes, I've got the one with the hole in the middle, although it's on the other side by my outlet. Never thought to put it by the skimmer but that makes sense.

5" here. Cleared the walk and drive. Done for the day Re-reading Thoreau's Cape Cod. I'm no stuntman..

3" maybe 4... very light. Not worth starting the Ariens. Might have been quicker with the Echo backpack blower....

My snow blower was dripping gas bad so I shoveled everything, 50' 3 car wide driveway, walks etc. Then I played with the snowblower, the drain on the bowl was leaking fixed it. No more leak ..

We had just over a foot. Good thing it was light and fluffy. I drove about 5 miles down the road and they had only about 7 or 8.

3 to 4" in Lexington hardly worth using the blower... I hope the next storm gives us a foot... I love to throw a lot of dry snow with my blower

No snow now except where piled up by shovels and plows. Even the plowed snow is fading fast. We have been luck so far. Watch us get another Blizzard of 78 the last week in February!

The long term weather patterns just don't indicate this milder than normal winter will change.
