Getting serious cabin fever.  Who has snow on the ground?  Who doesn't?

Thanks

We have had no snow since a smattering before T-giving.  The lake hasn't frozen enough for skating, although this week we're headed to a freeze of sorts -- down to daytime +teens on Friday. But the pattern is dry until the weekend -- tune in for maybe a snow report then.  Mostly we've been in +30s-50's for the winter.

Nick - from what I've seen from you a little snow doesn't stop you.......

I appreciate the sentiment Mark  :BEER:, but I'm not entirely daft.  I'm just trying to get a handle on how far south I'd have to trailer the bikes before we hit snow/ice free roads.  Seems like quite a way!

In the last 10 days, we've had four snowstorms totaling 55 inches, and it has been cold enough that it isn't going away at all. It's going to be a long time before the grass is bare again! We had a couple of big snowstorms in the fall, but not much through Dec and through the last week of Jan, and the ground was bare as of the 27th. I've probably seen more on the ground than we have now, but I can't remember it!

I'm just down the road from Nic. Officially, we've gotten 54 inches in the past week and a half with more due in tomorrow.
On a good note; today is the day that the average daily high starts going up. It been at 33 F since January 6, abut as of today, the average high is 34 F. And in a week, it'll be 35 F!

We just had our 5th heaviest snow on record here in Chicago.  Only 19", but it snowed another inch yesterday, and another today, and more on the forecast.

Perhaps I should not keep a loaded weapon in the house?

Well, you *are* in Chicago, so I'd say it's about 50-50.. <shrug>

Eastern PA checking in.  What was snow is now ice.  What's piled up is a dirty frozen mess.  Made one step from our walk onto the blacktop parking & went down like a . . like a. . .  it was soo fast.  nothing broken, nothing bruised, just lucky.

Hate that stuff. 

The first snowfall is pretty, but after that I'm praying for 60degree temps.

No snow here at 4,440 feet altitude in N.Utah. Should have at least a foot and a half or more on the ground. So nice I'm heading out to Nevada to fish for 3 days. Temps supposed to be in the 60's over weekend. Current pic attached

Coast of MA just north of Boston. Something like 3' with more on the way.

BTW, ever noticed that no one refuses to use a snowblower because of it's "carbon footprint"?

Nic- just next door in North Brookfield and like you, we have just about enough to get interesting.  Was helping my son move into an apartment in oakham this past weekend, it was cold enough to make Florida seem reasonable. ;D

not much snow.. less than a foot.
Keep thinking that the highway out front is bare. All I need to do is lower the bike off it's winter rack, trailer it to the bottom of the driveway, and let loose with tires cooled to the -30C air temp.
If this scenario is in place by the end of March: it's all worth it.
