Snow Out 2008

[jetskier]

For those of us that are not there regularly, someone needs to give us a standard measurement. Measure the depth of that pile in the yard and post updates for the rest of us. Of course, mud depth does not count.

I think that the big concern is that it will go from cold to "VERY WARM" and melt quite fast. That is what seems to be what we are being set up for. I expect that the yards will turn into bottomless mud.

It's on the Black Cat WeatherCam. Underneath the current image there is current weather data, and in the comments section you'll find lake temp followed by snow measurements including current snow depth.

Three weeks ago the yard stick (installed in December) was completely buried and I had to use a bigger stick to measure 43 inches, the season's max snow depth.

Now after some rain and warmth it's still a couple feet deep, but since it got all gloppy during the midwinter warmth/rain it froze solid soon after and has stayed that way, even on the more recent warm days. An average adult can walk right on top of it with no snowshoes. For all intents and purposes, we have 2 feet of ice on the ground, not snow.

I have 2 snow piles 1 camper deep in the back yard, and 2 piles 1 truck bed deep in the driveway. I know its not helpful, but theres no way I can measure it with an actual tape measure without killing myself.

Each day, more and more surface is appearing. The roads are getting muddy in the afternoon, but frozen again each morning. You can walk on top of the snow most of the day, and the plow piles are still 4 to 5 feet tall. Over a foot of base still in the woods, but it has a styrofoam feel to it. Very weird for this time of year. I've attached a shot I took yesterday (March 25'th), of our summer chairs waiting to be used.

Great shot lg! Thats the best part of this melting is finding stuff that I forgot I had. The neighbors propane tank actually scared me the other day, hadn't seen it in 2 months!
