Stowe. Tomorrow.
-
Those are some amazing ratios. Heading for Stowe today!

This was a few hours ago. Northfield, VT https://i.imgur.com/pv8tGWn.mp4

Yup, I’m right near the university. It’s been a fun evening, definitely feels like deep winter has returned. 1.7” new. 16 degrees
-
Some very impressive snow squalls have just passed through. Moderate to heavy snow, strong wind gusts and blowing snow. Reminds me of 2/14/2015 in the mid-Atlantic.
-
DC did poorly but the north and west suburbs of both DC and Baltimore did a lot better. One guy in Carroll county (northwest of Baltimore) has over 50” for the season.

How is Friday looking for the ski areas? I'm seriously considering taking either Thursday or Friday off if there is good upslope. I missed that 8" storm the other day.
-
I give it a B- or C+ Better than last year, but full of many disappointments. Probably will end up just below average.
-
What will it actually take to get into a pattern that favors storms and precip? GEFS extended looks bone dry for the whole month, though I have no idea how accurate it is. I keep hearing about shorter wavelengths in March, or that teleconnections aren’t as important. Is there a particular reason why the guidance shows such an ugly precip hole over much of New England?
-
I’m about to head to the slopes at Stowe. Looking forward to it, but this “storm” is basically flurries.
-
I had a feeling the models would improve as soon as I canceled winter. Let's hope I'm not speaking too soon...
-
I admire your optimism. I am very skeptical, but I hope you're right!
-
I'm sure there will be some nickel and diming into March and possibly April, maybe a stray advisory event or two, but I'm not expecting anything significant.
-
Look at all the forecast teleconnections. All of them will be the complete opposite of what we want. And those brief windows where we might get a ridge in the west, or some other reprieve from the hostile pattern, any chance of any storm working out will be a long shot. How much did it snow in March 2010?
-
Time to close the curtains on winter. Tip is right.
-
I've got it. Seriously though, as others have pointed out, the gradient is absolutely astonishing. Makes it hard for me to figure out how well my old home has done, but I'm just about certain it's somewhere between @nw baltimore wx and mappy. Probably just over 20" and right near the climo median. Maybe @Jeff B can clarify. On another note, the map looks a bit low for @losetoa6 location.
-
Those conditions were pretty common in the southern PA ski areas where I learned, especially Liberty and Roundtop. Lots of very icy days.
-
March is definitely coming in like a lamb.
-
Damn, I wish I didn’t have to work today. I’d be headed straight to Stowe otherwise. Looking great there. Hopefully Saturday delivers something decent.
-
I was at Stowe this past weekend. Great conditions, especially Sunday.
-
If models have spent so many weeks giving false hope, then let’s hope they’re wrong again. March tends to surprise.
-
The GEFS is looking dreadfully dry and boring. Same with the EPS to a lesser extent. What kind of upper level setups should I look for to see stormier patterns? Anything but a big ridge or a crushing PV?
-
Is it just me, or is begging for spring in late Feb onwards a very mid-Atlantic mentality?
-
There was that nice storm signal on the 0z Euro for next week. Not sure if this run will still have it.
-
Poor Burlington.
