More snow

(Maybe I've just lost track of my weather reports, but was more snow even forecasted for last night?)

At 9 am, it is 24 degrees and steady (much warmer!)
90% humidity and steady
Barometer stands at 29.56 inches and steady under clear skies
Fire danger is LOW (as of yesterday...all this snow will change that)

We're looking at something around a foot of fluffy stuff here (and remember: it's still ICE underneath!). Great for snowshoes! Break 'em out.

UPDATE 10:48 a.m.

The entrance has been carved out, as well as some parking.
There is enough room for one car, and two savvy drivers could easily fill the space.

That's a lot'a snow!

IN POINT OF FACT:
Yesterday was a record breaking day for snow!
8.2" total to midnight,
besting the previous record of 6.5" in 1948.
More record breaking snowfall!!!

This season has a total snowfall of 49.9",
(that's right campers, more than 4 feet since the first belated flakes fell in December)
where as we would typically have received 26.3" by this point.

Pretty soon we will need to break out the "Moylan-Meter."
