Winter's Last Hurrah?

[MattC]

It just started snowing in New York's Hudson Valley. Forecasts have varied wildy. Some have called for only 3-5 inches, others 8-10. At 5:45 PM in New Paltz, it's coming down about as hard and fast as it has all winter. It appears to be heavy and wet.

I hear were in the 8-10 range here in Oneonta. It just started coming down at 6:12. Looks like the snowshoes will see a bit more action this weekend. Anyone have Friday off?

This is very heavy, branch-bending snow. All the trees in my yard look like willows! I'd imagine there's quite a bit of new blowdown up on the slopes because of this. Should also be interesting for breaking trail.

We ended up with 8"-10" wet heavy snow in the NW Catskills. Now they are predicting rain for this weekend. Going to be gore-tex hiking conditions

The Kittatinny's in Northwest Jersey received 7-8 inches. It is melting fast though. Wont be around very long.

Uh, we had four inches of lovely new powder over here, nestled tight up against the state of Mainiacs. And there's still a fabulous base in the woods.

Melt, melt, melt... I'm ready for spring camping and hiking with my leather boots on rocks and dirt.
