Snow Depth – Friday April 16

I can’t understate how disappointed I am with the fact that the weather crapped out for getting up north. If I had gone up north, there would have been a fair amount of wet sloppy snow to deal with, even though I’m a bit skeptical about these snow totals, or that they will last very long as temperatures are a few degrees above freezing, even up north.

Talk about today turning into a rather dreary day

Talk about today turning into a rather dreary day. 🌧

Usually, Thursday is my day to go to store at lunchtime and then down to the library to work, but I don’t think that will be the plan for today — much too chilly and wet today. We need the rain, and it will help kill off more of the remaining snow, and get us out of rain/snow deficit we’ve had lately this winter, but it doesn’t make for nice looking out my window today at work. Kind of miss the basement office when things look like this. Been trying to get my CDTA navigator card updated — they’re having computer backend issues at CDTA but they say they are working on it.
