Snowfall Totals from Sunday/Mondays system.


Garden View February 15th.


The past system was definitely, Interesting. It came right from the NE, from the U.P of Michigan has produced some quick snowfall totals across the area, and I mean Quick! Earlier in the day, it was Sunny with blue skies, but then in the matter of like an hour, by 3PM, skies clouded up and Moderate snow, with blowing snow began to fall by Sunset most places had an inch of the ground. then by Monday Afternoon, most places has recorded 2, to nearly 4 inches. I recorded a total of 2.25" with a 0.13" water content.


Here are a list of reported totals.
Chetek 3.70"
Conorsville 3.30"
Roberts 2.60"
Menomonie 2.50"
Hammond 2.50"
Clayton (my location) 2.25"
Baldwin 2.0"
St Croix Falls 2.0"
Sarona 1.20"

Front yard view Feb 15th

with accumulation of the new 2.25" of fluffy-like snow, my snow depth now stands at 10.50" With a water contend of 2.48" This is the highest Snow depth I've has since early January, This continues our constant snow depth over 6.50 inches deep, which seems unusual, We have had over 6.50" of snow on the ground since, December 9th! Also this is 4th time I've reached a snow depth of 10.50" the other 3 times, I reach 10.50 before it fell again We haven't been able to reach over that limit yet! but with the warmer months of winter already here, Maybe I wont reach that amount? only time will tell.

Have you decided on what software you'll use to create your time-lapse of your garden and front of house?!

I am feeling an early March snow storm, how about you?

O, Yes, I'm going to use that Piacas you told me about it works great!

To tell you the truth O, I do feel like theres going to be at least one snowstorm in March, But these resent temps about freezing have gave me spring fever! We hit 35 yesterday! and were expected to stay in the 30s the next 2 days, We've already lost half inch of snow.

I got up to 37 yesterday... back down to 5" of snow depth. I refused to shovel the inch of snow we got the other night... by refusing I am hoping it lasts longer. I do not have Spring Fever yet. :)

Picasa is nice.
