So, if you have been watching the radar map, and on and off we have, there is this blob of cloud cover and precipitation just sitting over Massachusetts all the way out to upstate New York that just doesn't move.
Typically when you see something over that section of New York it is some 3 to 4 hours away from being your future, but time stands still along with the storm and the snow keeps falling.
We also decided that, while up to a week ago the blog image was dead on, right now we are unambiguously in the winter (even if it is shy of the solstice by a day.)
More snow is predicted for tomorrow, starting at 8 a.m. and dropping some 6 - 10" more of the white stuff!
That makes this optimal for snowshoes, cross country skis (poor ski folk had little to work with for much of last winter), and snow mobiles (who also had bum luck last year getting adequate depth.)
Enjoy the winter wonderland, and the arctic air out there that will stay low.
Presently it is 4:16 p.m. and:
15.4 degrees F and steady;
81% humidity and steady;
30.03" of Hg and steady.
We are hunkered down by the fieldstone fireplace and until we know that the mail is here we aren't heading out to measure the present depth.
Stay tuned!
