    Sierra Nevadas resident: glares with envy at your measly couple inches of snow

    edit: For context, I live near Lake Tahoe and in the 2022-2023 winter we got more than 50 feet of snow at the pass near my house, and IIRC it was something like 39 feet where I live. Since that was mostly spread out from December to March, we averaged 4 inches per day for 4 months straight. Not that we actually got 4 inches per day; it was more like 2 storms per week which each dropped a foot of snow over a 12-hour period. It got to the point I had to get my snowblower onto my roof to clear off 15 feet of snow so the roof didn’t collapse from the weight.

    Man, fuck that winter.
