Anyone getting any snow?
We got about 8 inches weeks ago....... then nothing!  I only plowed once thus far. Hmmm.  Anyone else getting any plowing delight?

I hate that, but then on the flip side it sure helps with the Spring thaw! Our ground is frozen pretty darn well.

So far we have had about 20" total. Last snow dumped 16", now green grass again. No frost either, temps on the plus side. But I'm all ready for when it comes! LOL

Technically speaking the answer is yes. The PNW is known for it ultra fine rain. So fine you all but can't see it but if you stand outside you can feel it hitting you. Couple nights ago we had such a rain and temp was just right. Looking outside at night with bright light shining you could see the sparkles of the snow crystals slowly falling in the air but not once on the ground.
So technically speaking, yes we did get some snow.

Cummington was always a cold place! Here in central Maine we had 3" 2 days ago and a dusting today for a total of 17" or so since October, but with the warmth and rain, only 4" on the ground right now. All of the storms blow out to the ocean before they reach us as they blow up from the south.

We've been virtually void of any real snow until the last week or so. Heck, we've still had temps in the 40's up until it snowed!

Last night was about 15. The three nights before were 6 below, 3 below and 10 below. Tonight is is supposed to rain from 12am to 7 am and the temp 35-40;s. I wonder if any of our 4" of snow will be left by tomorrow night. I like the temps and no snow but I wonder what it means for our spruce and northern species over time. Odd weather.

Just finished plowing about 4" of snow that fell this morning.  Got in about 45 minutes plow time with the Belarus.  It's now changed to freezing rain and calls for rain later today, changing to flurries tonight. Old man winter must be going through "A change of life"!
