I'm going to stop fussing and do my actual work. Just checked and 25cm is the total where I measured previously, and the flakes are smaller and wetter, even though the temperature is still 0C.

It's hard to tell whether it's mixing or just wet snow, but this is the last measurement regardless.

Since 3 AM
2.5 cm new
21 cm storm total

Depth is 18 (very compact and heavy already, shoveling will be a b****)
2025-26 season stats:
Climo :cancel: ∞ to 0.5 :14clown: GFS

Season total: 0.5 cm and TWO traces!
Peak depth: 0.5 cm (01/07/2026)

So I peeked at the path that I cleared to get to my measuring spot and it's low key actually accumulating again. I'm sorta too lazy to bother measuring this last bit and adding it because at this point it's compacting a lot and this might be negative snow LOL

Ya, it is actually still snowing but I'm too tired to know. We were at a ski resort beside Tahoe one time during spring break, and we got 5 FEET (no BS) overnight, and it was concrete wet. Killed me just to clear a space to get the car out of our parking spot. Crazy thing is their plowing is amazing. Never a problem getting around.

Still moderately snowing I had to go take a peek again and see if there was any melting but it doesn't look like it. My guess now if there's about 10" :shock: :shock:
Looking forward to our first 3 day stretch of sun and 20c++ 8-)
