How much snow do you have in your yard?

12 to 15 inches. Drifts up to 30 inches.

For the first time in a long time, nothing, and loving it.

My male Saint Bernard hates the snow and it is a chore to get him out to exercise and go make. I am ready to clean up my yard as soon as the ground thaws out to fertilize and get the grass growing, which will probably be in about 4-6 weeks.

A foot or two, very crusty at the moment under a top layer of ~2 inches. The mountain probably picked up around six, which will definitely help. The forecast is colder, but not showing any big storms yet.

Based on the forecast on bestskiweather.com, this might be the low point of the month. The last couple of weeks are supposed to be pretty good.

none-never had more than four inches all winter. sun evaporates the snow so fast down here. I went mountain biking after skiing last week.

The big 0.....We have had very little all year.

zero in metro boston. butttttt..... the snowplow pile is still four feet high. I tried chopping away some of it so my daughter would stop hitting it. Man, that thing is solid ice. If that's any indication of base, all the mountains would need is a total of 10-12" to really make it all good again.

Same as Loafer, except my dog is a Brittany. If he doesn't want to go out, I just pick him up and chuck him out the door.

Just come north about 40 miles from Boston...I still have plenty of snow in my yard (and not everyone in my family's happy about it).

Our cocker spaniel has been seeking out the itty bitty snow piles that are left. She's a pain in the arse during season changes... hates the snow at the beginning of the season and gives you a hard time going. Then once the snow starts to melt, won't go on the grass/mud, has to seek out the snow (and if there isn't any, will circle for what feels like hours while you wait).
