    Forecast for SE NH is 4-8 inches overnight Sun into Mon morning. Figures just as most of the snow has been washed away.

    I still have a healthy amount of snow. The pathways did finally clear - I didn't shovel or snow blow them after the last round because of the set, heavy snow. I just wish it weren't another heavy snow, and would be the light, fluffy stuff this time.

    I sort of want it to snow one more time.

    Finally got around to quieting down the Gravely with the see through eargesplittenloudenboomer Pepperpot "muffler".

    Pretty enjoyable quality time in the garage in front of the pellet stove. Everything went as well as these sorts of things usually do until I realized I'd forgotten to order a new exhaust flange gasket with the other stuff.

    Had to wait a day for that jungle website to deliver me a few to have on hand, so I could burn the paint off. Much quieter now with a nice thump thump thump, still not quiet by today's gentle standards, but at least your ears won't rupture and bleed now.

    IDK what the black "paint" was but it was generously thick and smelled like burning epoxy paint (when my eyes stopped watering). Then again it is for a Kohler engine of some sort, not an old flat head cross flow Gravely engine.

    I've run it for 10 or 15 a couple times, but curious as to a 2-3 hour storm cleanup session. So far so good though!

    Lowes wanted $7.99 for a bag of pellets. I didn't bother checking what brand they were.

    I started out just inside the high range, but last night they said the track had moved about 50 miles south and now I'm at the edge of the 1-3" range (maybe even the trace range). Which would work well for me as the solar panels are just starting to produce about the same amount of power that I have been using.

    Keep changing it down here. First they said heavy wet stuff, But looks to be light and fluffy so far. Luckily no rush or worries as the wife had here work cancel all appointments for the day and the kids have the day off. We can sit in warmth and not have to rush to clean the mess up. Sit and enjoy the winter wonders and the kitties watching kitty TV. Pups luvs the white stuff and luvs to romp around in it. So we'll take him out to enjoy his play time. Only worry is if the winds kick up. So far so good!

    An official sn* day for us.

    For NH it's turned into a dud of a storm. We rescheduled a couple of appointments Lori had at Lahey today. When she called yesterday morning, the greater Boston area was forecasted to get 9-12 inches, now it's maybe 3+.
