Looks like we are in for 6'' to 8'' of the heavy stuff on it's way in Southern Maine and just West of us in Manchester N.H. 8'' to 12''.Oh well, just the usual Spring snow storm, anyone else getting hit with this ?

We are forecasted for six or seven inches up in my hills.

 

On the plus side. Trina will get to use the nice brand new Ariens walk behind that I bought two months ago and have barely touched.

We received about 3” overnight, but the roads are clear.

About 3" of the wet stuff here too. I love the view. It won't last long though. :)

We just got a little overnight as well and the road out front is just wet.

 

However, that dodn't stop the plow truck from going by spreading a nice thick layer of salt on.

 

Just got my vehicles cleaned up on the weekend too.....

Where I live, this is an opportunity for the State Boys to sharpen their cutting edges on the road!

Central Connecticut at 4:00pm this afternoon.....not enough to justify any seat time. It’s barely an inch.

@Sparky Yup.  Just a shovel's worth so it will not be rutted and frozen over night.  But with CT encouragement for me to stay home it does not matter much.

I have to say the snow shot is prettier but I'm not complaining that it's gone. Some decent weather in store though. I'll be playing outside. Gotta do it. They just shut things down in Indiana as of 11:59 pm tomorrow. Fortunately we're in great shape with everything as far as supplies and we didn't even rush out to horde things. We just always try to keep ourselves in that position. I know you're locked down too Kevin as are many of us. Stay safe all and don't sneeze on your keyboard like @WHX24 did. Don't want to give the forum a virus. :D

Long term weather looks very promising.  Every day from here forward is warmer.

Got just enough of that wet heavy snow to snap branches out of some of the pine trees in the yard.

NO ... you need more! If that were a bag of tater chips five would only be an 1/16 of a bag! Perhaps a  real nice all orginal 855?? ..only rode by a little old lady on Sundays?!? I know where there is one... looks to be pretty close to you too...:ychain:

I have not looked out in a while, the town plow just went by. We could get up to eight inches, about three just before dark. My grandfather called these late March early April storm's, after most of winters snow pack had melted, sugar snow. Weather conditions worm rest of the week, snow melts maples turns it into sugar, and good memories of day's gone by.

We've ended up with about 8 inches.

Cleared enough of the driveway with the new Ariens walk-behind to get out. We will finish up later.

Very impressive little snow blower.

 

Too dark for pics or video at 5 in the morning in Maine but I'll try to get some later.
