We haven't gotten any snow here in Russell yet, but Monday they had the snowplows out removing slush on the roads in Star Lake, about 20 miles from here!

So, it won't be too much longer and we'll have snow here!    :snowball:

You can send all that white fluff stuff down this way, I'm tired of the warm/hot weather its gonna be in the mid 70's here tomorrow. I had the dew on the top of my car freeze last night when I left work at 11:00pm. Oddly enough my car said it was 40° at the time so the ground is still way to warm.

you don't have to rub the 70's weather in  :) we need 80 and a nice breeze for a week to dry things out here

Our plows were out Monday Too!  But we were pushing storm debris off the roads.  We lost power Sunday night, got it back Wed afternoon.  Only lost a couple small trees.  I'm kinda glad it wasn't snow, only wind and rain, that 2in of rain would be a LOT of snow :-X

I just returned from Vernon, 25 miles away. That was fun. Heavy wet snow made the road slushy, drivers were either doing 40 or 70. ::) Power is off in town, probably due to trees downing lines or somebody took a pole out.

We got a couple of inches last Thursday then 4 more on Saturday, now it's supposed to be near zero on Wednesday so this snow will be here until April:)

The "Weather Guessers" are calling for cold (20° range) tonight, so it won't be long before we start seeing some snow here!

It won't be much longer and I'll have snow piled up in the yard, waiting for Spring to melt it!   :snowball:

Left town for 4 days with hopes that the snow would be melted by the time I returned. Well no such luck, got more snow while I was gone and now its chilly, could get down into the teens the next few nights. Makes for a long winter when by Nov 6th you've already had something like 15 inches of white stuff :(
Title: Re: snow
Post by: Chuck White on November 07, 2017, 08:22:29 AM
It only got down to 34° through the night so, no frost or snow yet!

Sounds like we will get a little lake effect this weekend. Still waiting for the maple leaves to fall. After 10 inches of rain the last 7 days everything is mud again.
Title: Re: snow
Post by: coxy on November 07, 2017, 06:41:11 PM
I wish I had mud all I got is soup ;D   this has to be the wettest fall I can remember  this is more like spring time

This is what it looked like. Some of the biggest flakes I have ever seen.
After they hit the ground it seemed that 1/2 of the flake would melt before
I could snap a picture of it.

Had a few flakes mixed in with rain yesterday, that is all the snow I want to see this winter. Sooner mow my lawn on Christmas day, than shovel my driveway!
Title: Re: snow
Post by: Chuck White on November 11, 2017, 07:29:25 AM
Woke up to about 1/2 inch yesterday!

Post by: chevytaHOE5674 on November 11, 2017, 08:51:34 AM
Another 3" or so last night...

I'll have to look but that probably puts us over 20" of snow for the season.
