Woke up this morning to 5-6” of fresh snow. Great job weatherman! ?? You’re the silly one if you keep believing them year after year! 1 Quote
Super User scaleface Posted January 2, 2021 Super User Posted January 2, 2021 Ice storm here yesterday . Wide spread power outage . I regained power this morning but only half my poles are hot . Luckily I have a furnace and refrigerator working but no way to cook anything . The crews left for other parts of town . I had to chip the ice out of the bird feeder so the birds are happy . 2 Quote

One and two-burner propane fired stoves, propane fired grill, camp-oven for the stove-tops. You name it, I can probably make it with those. 2 Quote

I bet she can hear a mouse fart at the bottom of that snowpile with those ears Yup ~ Every night she stares out into the back woods and growls into the pitch black total darkness. We see or hear nothing of course but in the morning, the 'tracks in the snow' tell the story. Not sure if she sees the deer or hears them. Either way, I expect to sleep good for many years to come.

Global Moderator 12poundbass Posted January 6, 2021 Global Moderator Posted January 6, 2021 We’re lucky if we’ve had 12” so far this year. Quote
GTN-NY Posted January 6, 2021 Posted January 6, 2021 We normally have 30-40” so far. We have 2” and none on the ground Quote

Super User A-Jay Posted January 6, 2021 Super User Posted January 6, 2021 We average over 150 inches annually and often get the Lions share of that before the big lakes freeze. We aren't even remotely close to that now. #notcomplaining A-Jay 1 Quote

Super User Bankbeater Posted January 7, 2021 Super User Posted January 7, 2021 We've been lucky so far. The majority of the ice and snow has either gone north or south of us. We did get a little bit of freezing rain on Friday night, but it was mostly gone by Saturday afternoon. Quote
Global Moderator TnRiver46 Posted January 7, 2021 Global Moderator Posted January 7, 2021 We are scheduled to get more snow tomorrow . Which means it should be sunny 1 Quote
