FiveRoooooers Posted December 30, 2023 Share Posted December 30, 2023 Who does math? If all that flooding rain we got two weeks ago (7+”) had been snow? How many zeros is that around “…illion?” We woke this morning to beautiful heavy yet floofy snow. This is one of our walking trails. It’s soo pretty. It’s about 35 deg F without any wind at all and it’s just loverly. The campers were like, we got this, mom! Quote Old Dogs are the Best Dogs. Thank you, campers. Current enrollees: Punkin.

ramonaghan Posted December 30, 2023 Share Posted December 30, 2023 A winter wonderland indeed. So pretty! Mine are loving the 30s temps this week (far better than summer temps!), but there's not been a bit of snow here yet. Quote Rachel with littermates Doolin and Willa, boss cat Tootie, and feline squatters Crumpet and Fezziwig. Missing gentlemen kitties Mud, Henry, and Richard and our beautiful, feisty, silly Sweep.

MarcR Posted December 30, 2023 Share Posted December 30, 2023 It's beautiful... especially when it's in somebody else's yard Rough conversion: 1" of rain equals about 10" of snow, so 7" of rain...

BatterseaBrindl Posted December 30, 2023 Share Posted December 30, 2023 Lovely! Wish we’d get some up here. We’re still dealing with MUD. Sloppy, soupy boot-sucking mud. Temps are going to drop below freezing overnight so it should freeze, but the frozen mud ruts are almost as bad as the mud soup.

Time4ANap Posted December 30, 2023 Share Posted December 30, 2023 We always estimated 1 foot of snow per inch of rain. It will vary based on the dryness/wetness of the actual snow that falls. Either way, when using the metric system that equals a buttload. Quote Camp Broodie. The current home of Mark Kay Mark Jack and Gracie Kiowa Safe Joan.

I thought for sure the fog/drizzle/rain we had all week would freeze into a skating rink overnight. Fortunately, there was enough residual warmth in the pavement to dry most of it.
