Lake effect snows just sagged down from Jefferson County into our area..still warm 34 degrees, that will soon change. Creeks are up pretty good, bet the Res. is gaining ground...I would think the River stays up a little longer. 900cfs plus run off right now.
After a great afternoon with temps near 50 degrees , the winds just shifted to the southwest in the last 20 minutes... It's a deafening sound, gusts are breaking branches, only a matter of time til the flakes start flying.

happy new year. where is the ice?
4th picture down is outstanding, I got to find my polarise.
I hope you get all the snow this year, if I never shovel a roof again it will be fine with me.
I'm with Jim. Don't want to be on the roof this winter, came down the hard way this past winter. Glad there was a 4 foot drift.
