"As is usual, areas around us get hammered with lake-effect snow and we have less than an inch on the ground."
The above statement from last week is true again this week. Travel 5-10 miles to our east and, instead of less than an inch, they have a foot of snow on the ground.
...by the way, a string of nine consecutive days with complete snow cover (albeit less than an inch) ended last Saturday (December 11). All it took was a single day above freezing to wipe out all of the snow that wasn't in deep shade. In addition to ending a string of nine consecutive days with complete snow cover, it was the first time since the morning of December 01 that the temperature reached into the 30s. It rained all day Sunday before turning cold again Monday. A dusting of snow Monday night was combined with a couple of centimeters last night, leaving us back where we were last week: cold (for December; highs in the teens and low 20s) with a little bit of snow.
