We were stuck in no man's land in SVT between the PF and crew band and the SE stuff most of the day. Pretty pedestrian rates and meh snow growth for big part of the day.
Made up some ground with some 20-30:1 fluff this evening finished at 5.5"
BTV mentioned 15 or 20:1 ratios. Light winds so no fractured dendrites and good lift through the DGZ for a time. Kuchie could verify if there are multiple hours of good snow growth.
Nothing was more epic than that squall that hit KLW's area down through you a few years ago. Wasn't that like an 8" squall? Guess that wasn't a squall line per se either.
Yea, the radar was really ragged overnight. Picked up just about 2" and gusted to 52mph. Cant imagine even the elavtions in SVT had more than 3-5 based on the radar.
That is probbaly what your used to. But March has had the highest average snowfall the past 10 years at my spot. Im in SVT too. Even in Brattleboro winter isn't over in FEB normally.
It's also a little warmer this time around it seems. So places that were marginal last event will see less because of that and less QPF. As always, good to be In and Up.
Last event here was 6.8", definitely taking the under on that for tonight.
Looks like another western slopes downslope special in VT, just maybe a little tamer than the other night. Still prob 40-60mph gusts. Everywhere else more meh maybe outside of other downslope areas in NH.
Similar down here..full exposed to the SE. I'm only like 500ft feet from the spine though, so it just races down during bad events. So far, not too bad, just lows 40s gust.
Measured 1.7" in 45 minutes earlier, so yes definitely close to 2 an hour.
Winds lessend a bit here and it been ripping for 4+ hours now. Were close to changeover, Temp up 30.3F.
ALY had 1-2" for here. Got 5" down now--big flakes still for now.
Pretty normal here with a strong Low cutting. SE LLJ ripping down W/NW facing slopes of the higher terrain. Meso's showing this pretty well. Does seem to look worse in NVT, so see how it goes overnight up there.
My temp dropped a bit from 30.2F down to 27.8F now. Bouts of-SN and already little breezy--27MPH on Davis. Lets see what the overnight brings--going to rip here I think.
Full ALY for SVT. As expected Eastern Areas did better in Windham County

The valley here down through Bennington got totally porked.
The deep east flow downslope along with never getting into any good FGEN lift resulted in not much accum.
Ended with 6.9" here. Center of town Manchester prob 3-5" and heading south prob 2" in Arlington and 1" or less in Bennington. There was a little upslope that came through last night that added a little in those spots.
