On the other hand, I'll get to know how bad the storm has been by just checking the amount of new snow. :wink:

Re: Weather
I just got done trimming the liriope since the warm spell might cause it to start growing prematurely.
Being only Feb 21, we are nearly certain to have a succession of hard freezes over the next few weeks.
With repeated cold snaps damaging the the buds, some species will never flower this year.

Re: Weather
Was that, because the weather was that bad, or were there too many drivers that didn't dare but crawl forward, because they saw a snow flake? At least here, the latter are the bigger problem.

Re: Weather
Yesterday I looked at the Finnish forecast, Foreca, and it looked that tonight would be mostly clear starting from about 4 PM. It still shows that, but when I look out of the window, I see full cloud coverage. This morning a couple of other forecasters agreed with Foreca, but now they have changed their forecasts to fully cloudy.
What is it here that make an hour a "long term forecast"?
I'm just getting frustrated of false hope.

I'm just getting frustrated of false hope.
I use the BBC Weather page (forecasts provided by the Meteo Group) and generally find them to be fairly accurate.
I not only check it regularly for night sky conditions, but also for during the day for when Sophia and I plan our walks in the Forest.
Quite often though, I have seen the reported conditions to be changing by the hour. It will say a possibility of rain for one particular hour and turn out to be sunny, or vice versa.
Our best method is to look out of the window and make our decision what to do then
