Title: Storm of '08
Post by: mitt on February 06, 2008, 11:33:20 AM
It has been snowing hard here all day

We have been getting pounded this year with snow - we are about 9 inches short of a record as of today.  Seems like a long way off before the duc will get started...

We're having the first real winter here in years.

We had more snow in the month of Dec. than all last year.

I feel your pain....my first ride of the year is usually in April (on my birthday). Not so sure this year.

We've passed the official record for the state where I live.

Over 10 feet...6 still on the ground in places.

Concord, where the measuring is done, is at #6 all time.

No moto in April I fear.

This sucks.

We are 5 inches from our city snow record.

We have had more days below 20F than above.

We just had a nice 50 degree day yesterday, then 15 today. 

It rained 1" last evening, then turned to snow.

This sux
