All Activity

I believe this. It has been terribly humid.

temps cooler with lower dews, don't be a nitwit. lol

…and then December just continued to deliver.

Well, I was standing outside looking up at my drone when this strike reached down from the sky and startled the shit out of me. lol

1" this afternoon/evening and .40" early today. July is out of the gate wet imby

Those storms exploded along the outflow

Light rain and thunder

The winter/ski seasons all blur together for me, which I think is in part due to our climate here in the Northern Greens. While we certainly get memorable storms, the majority of the winter features day after day with light to moderate snowfall events, which don’t stand out as easily from one season to the next. In any case, it’s a good climate to maintain high-quality snow surfaces for skiing and riding, and it’s one of the reasons that I really like having the reports from my ski outings to refresh my memory for specific periods though. I was curious about that strong start you mentioned for the 2023-2024 season, and indeed it does pop up on the plot for the Mt. Mansfield Stake data – the snowpack depth hitting 40 inches in the first half of December is a great place to be, and it quickly gets a lot of off-piste terrain in play. I checked my snowfall numbers and saw that our site in the valley only picked up about a foot of snow in the first half of December, which is below average and certainly not a standout performance. After looking a little closer, I realized that November 2023 also brought us 20 inches of snow in the valley, and that was a big help in priming that great start to December. I hadn’t caught that the first big rise in the 2023-2024 snowpack plot is actually from the end of November, but I see in my data that we had 6 snowstorms in the valley in the last 10 days of the month. On my Bolton outing on the 28th I measured the snowpack depth at 20” at 3,000’ and then on the 29th it was up to 24”. The skiing was great even before the calendar hit December.

Looks like a rough I-84 drive right now.

80.9/ 76 Can we even gin up a storm ?

The numerous days above 90 with full sun definitely have sped things along.

Not every year.

Barely light rain here yet we had a close strike of lightning with thunder

85/74 but a nice little breeze that feels good.

Luckyyyyy - in Napoleon Dynamite voice

That can't miss Famous last words

Late Aug thru Sept is ideal summer.

Big bust here

Not my station. It’s about 1/4mi up street. https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KMAATTLE150/graph/2025-07-1/2025-07-1/daily I haven’t been able to find/see where the station is set up.

Looks like I'm finally going to get some heavy rain. Won't last too long, but the storm structure looks good from the drone's view.

That’s not typical . Usually get ebbs and flows but some yrs(probably this one) September and Oct can be more dewy than not

Outflow sparking up cells near Kev. let’s see how the webbed hands deflect here.

We lost power for about 20 minutes. 1.50 and raining currently

Nobody said cool temps. Don't be a tool.

You seem to run high?
