(Sorry for another weather post, but that's all that's going on around here.)
Here's the observed weather from today:
- HEAVY SNOW
- SNOW
- LIGHT SNOW
- FOG
- BLOWING SNOW
Kind of sums it up, no?
According to the National Weather Service, as of 6:52 PM, it snowed 11.2 inches today; a record. Add the 1.5 inches from yesterday, along with 58 or so inches since the first of December and you've got 72.1 75.1 inches total for the season. That puts us exactly four ONE inch behind the season record of 76.1 from 1978-79. Keep in mind it's only February 6. It snows through April here, people. That's another two full months. Don't forget there's extra day at the end of February this year, too. Add the fact that it's snowed a measurable amount on 54% of the days this winter so far. It's like Mother Nature could sneeze tomorrow and another four inches could just fall down just like that. That record is as good as gone.
UPDATE: For all my moaning and groaning, I didn't have it as bad as these poor folks: 800 people trapped on Interstates
