Foiled by snow

[Fabbr]

After over a month of unseasonable warm weather and great metal detecting, we received 26 inches of snow. The upside will be soil moisture, downside is the snow will be around for a while.

I've been out several times over the last week searching up to the edge of snow banks, I was hoping for the rest of it to melt. As of today we have 11 inches of new snow ans 5 more expected. This should be melted by Wednesday mid day though and the moisture has really helped clean up those old deep signals, 2 silver dimes in 2 days and a 1908 IH so far in old pounded ground. Bring on the sunshine )

Update; it was announced on the local news this morning that in april we have received 39.5 inches of snow and set an all time record here. Its supposed to be 70 tomorrow, the ground hog definitely lied to us this time around. Last time I was out I was still hitting dry dirt at around 8 inches in places, hopefully it will soak a bit deeper and clean up the hits on those deeper targets.

We had over 40 inches over the past 3 weeks down here in town. Almost 100 inches on the mountain. Another 8 inches and 9 degrees yesterday morning.

Like you, supposed to be 70 by the weekend.

Let the flood season begin.

The weather forecast calls for temps in the 70s here this weekend. Haven't seen that since October. But I still have maybe six inches of snow cover in my back yard and a whole lot of standing water as it melts. Wish I could have gotten a picture, but yesterday I have a big robin taking a vigorous splashing bath in one of the deep puddles.
