20-25 cm ( 8-10 inches) of snow forcast for the Fredericton area and drifting snow, starting tonight and and changing to rain as temperatures rise to +2 C by noon tomorrow. Good time to blow snow just before the changeover to rain and the snowplow has already passed by. This is my plan with my Husqvarna 27 inch, hydrostatic with 14.5 Briggs . Should be fun.
The storm came overnight with about 25 cm (10 inches) of heavy snow, didn't turn to rain .
This is the heaviest storm yet for this year, just enough to play with.

We're supposed to get about 3" - 6" Wednesday afternoon into Thursday, possibly a bit more depending on the way the storm tracks. Up to this point, not including the crazy October noreaster, this will be like the 2nd measureable storm we've had all winter. EDIT 02-29-2012: Looking good according to the weather guru's. Latest reports indicate up to 8" in my neck of the woods when it's all said and done...

Right now I'm at the beach in Costa Rica. It was 33C (91F) and humid here today. Freaking hot. A few days ago, we got 20cm (8 in.) of snow back home and, believe it or not, I was a bit pissed that I wasn't there. Go figure. Been pretty much the same temperature here for ten days straight. Four more days to go then, home. Hopefully we'll get another dump or two of snow before the season ends. Apologize for the big pics. Internet down here is a bit "iffy". In my haste, I failed to re-size them. Bad Monkeys: Big, big croc: Play Blanca, Punta Leona, Costa Rica:

Borat, Looks like you had your own white stuff to play in, nice beach. How were the accommodations & food? Been thinking about a trip to Costa Rica myself. Cheers

Where is the snow??Look like it's gone for good for a while.... 70*F here today and the long range forecast is calling for mild temps through the end of the month. Looks like Winter is gone before it even got started!

Same here, I think I am going to run the snowblower dry tonight and wipe it down (not going to bother changing the oil after only one use this season)
This might be just enough to jinx it and bring in a big snowstorm in a week or two :) -Dan
