Ok, so I am wondering... The last 2 years you guys have had pretty "good" winters with lots of snow.... Because we have our house up there, I keep the weather for my area on my desktop so I can always keep track of it as well as I can. It doesn't seem as though you guys have been hit to hard this year so far...

So, what are your totals so far this year?!

We are moving up March 15th (YAY! - that's driving the moving truck day) and as of now it looks like not TO much snow will be on the ground if it sticks to the winter you've had so far.... Here in my area of south Jersey our totals are already 29 inches and we are expecting a storm with blizzard conditions starting tonight with another 14-20 inches. We've already well beat the snow totals for our area for i'm not sure how many years back but we are having your winter this year it seems! I'm loving it!

I concur wholeheartedly. Not much here after the 3" dusting we got the other day.

I don't have a total. We had one 16" and one 9" that were memorable. We had several 2 to 4 inch snows. We had quite a rain 2 weeks ago that knocked it down. I estimate we have a foot right now. The ground is virtually bare in Bangor.

Here are the numbers so far in this township

06 Dec 2009 - 5.0"
10 Dec 2009 - 5.0"
15 Dec 2009 - 0.6"
23 Dec 2009 - 0.2"
24 Dec 2009 - 1.0"
29 Dec 2009 - 8.0"
01 Jan 2010 - 3.0"
02 Jan 2010 - 3.0"
18 Jan 2010 - 0.5"
19 Jan 2010 - 1.0"
20 Jan 2010 - 5.5"
21 Jan 2010 - 0.5"
29 Jan 2010 - 1.0"

I think that gives a sum of about 34.3"

Forest is about as far southwest of NJ2ME as I am northeast. I figure forest has less than 6 inches on the ground today.

Congratulations NJ2ME. You have worked hard and planned this well.

I agree... I think I have about 5", in the places where it is not bare (where the snow blew FROM to make the drifts.)
