Weather Update

Yesterday evening, the weathermen were forecasting that we'd receive 30 to 60 cm of snow from Saturday night through the end of the day Sunday. As it stands, we've only received between 5 and 10 cm, and it looks like the snow is ending! Talk about a bad forecast!

Not including today's snow, the updated weather statistics are:

Weather Update

By yesterday afternoon (December 12), we had lost enough snow that you could see the ground in places. It was the first time in nearly two weeks that we didn't have complete snow cover. However, today is a new day and we're currently in the middle of a significant snow event for our area. It started snowing this morning and we've already received about 07 cm at 12:41. The weathermen forecasted that we'd receive between 10 and 20 cm in total, so we're right on schedule with their predictions.

As a person that loves winter weather, this has been the best late November/early December that I have ever experienced!

Weather Update

I'm typing this post at 06:58 on a Monday morning. Normally I'd be driving to work at this time, but we're having a two-hour delay because of freezing rain. In the three previous winters we've had two freezing rain events. Incredibly, this is already our second freezing rain event of this season!

Awesome weather yesterday and today...

Yesterday we received about 03 centimeters of snow and we had our first day with complete snow cover. Last night we received about 10 cm of snow! It's raining outside right now, but it's only about 28 degrees, so everything is getting a pretty little coating of ice on it. I went snowshoeing this morning for two hours, and it was absolutely beautiful!
