My yard is actually already getting that slushy film, but unfortunately I'm out for the rest of the day so I'll miss measuring. I'm gonna use Rubes minus 20% as an estimate for my total today.

I’m out too and was going to use your measurements as an estimate of mine.

I must say , it's coming down pretty good, could be an early 1st period lead.
