Name: billy barr
Zone: Southeast Mountains
Weather: Two mornings ago i walked to work, and this morning it took longer than that just to dig out and get to the station in front of my house. –It snowed all day Thursday but generally light snowfall, though dense. It picked up late day and became heavy after dark and continued until around 5 a.m. Wind picked up some but never strong, thankfully. The 24 hour new snow total was 19½” with water of 1.62″ and snowpack has now reached 27½” deep- this after recently completing 10 consecutive days of breaking the records for the shallowest snowpack. Temperature remains moderate with yesterday high of 29F and the morning low and current of 18F. Wind is very light right now and cloud cover is obscured but currently not snowing. Welcome to winter.
