I'm going to estimate another 2 cm but it's compacting and melting now.

Snow stopped at some point overnight and the temperature started creeping upward. Never amounted to more than a slushy dusting despite it snowing for hours. Now 1.2ËšC with melting. At least it was snow.

Yeah, my final score is still 2.5 cm from last night's event, which is what I got yesterday evening before I went to bed.

Same. I estimated a further 0.5 cm mainly because there was more left over this morning than if it had rained all night.

All long range model runs now show a warmer and splityy outlook. Looks like winter is over.

Don't worry though. I am sure the cold and wet will return by late March and linger until our first heatdome in June.

Measurable snow in Nov Dec Jan Feb AND Mar?

@Goose when has that happened?

I estimated about a cm fell (total, both before and after midnight) based on how much slush there was on surfaces that had melted bare by yesterday afternoon.

I can’t wait to Spring forward in March and have daylight past 7 again!

Agree. With some nice bommy temps around 17c would be nice somewhere in there too! Once Feb hits..we on the downward slope for snow. Unless you like slush?

Had about 1cm overnight.

Quick glance says around 3-4 cms fell on the hill..on top of the existing white landscape from the a.m. already..maybe 2cms morning? Warmed up overnight a lil. Precip shut off. Looked really nice this morning on the bump for what was a cupla wimpy fronts.
