Yet More Snow ...

  Another 3.5" on 01/10/24. We've had 15" this month. That's usually an entire winter's worth. And cold! We dipped to -3° on 01/09 and +3° on 01/10. The forecast is calling for lows of zero by mid-week again.

 Here's some shot of the most recent snow ...


 Jeff Erisman arrives to dig us out ... again!


 If you look at the picnic table, I cleared the right end before yesterday's snow. The left side contains the total snow from the past two storms, minus melt (8.5").


 Both Bob and I are a little worried about the gutter guards we both had installed. Bob says his are covered with leaves. Both of us have noticed how they serve as ice dams, allowing snow to pile up and long icicles to form. And I have quite a deep drift on the kitchen roof. I suppose I should be worried about the weight.

 
Thanks to Jeff our driveway is blessedly clear. At least we can get out to the road if we need to. And in an emergency, crews can easily get in.

 Through 01/10, we're -2.0° to normal for the month.

 Here are a few late day pix:
