Nice write up JSpin. The NW upslope has always made sense like you point out because of that long fetch of flat terrain in Southern Canada Talk about just perfect geological luck, only a nice fat Ontario size lake in southern Canada would make lol worthy in terms of snowfall. But I also don't get the Lake Ontario connection and how it can produce so well. It has to pass that long stretch of higher terrain in the ADKs. Maybe its just the rounded nature like you said or the CPV is wide enough there to downslope of the ADKs and then upslope back over the Northern Green's? Certainly interesting. We get Ontario scraps down here also for sure. Again, nothing like up there-- Inch or two here and there, occasionally little more than that.

Seems to happen from time to time. Couple years ago I drove over to Dartmouth from here and a bad cutter had just gone through the previous couple days. Exposed areas around 2k near Bromley/Peru were bare with patches. Got down to Chester VT (700ft -ish) and they had a 10-12" glacier. Definitely was surprising to see.

Right, skiers/ snowmobilers in SNE do. I really don't think the rest do. Most people are very IMBY centric, not saying they shouldn't be, just the way it is I think. Ginx and few others are the outliers.

I hear you on that. You do have JSpin, BWT, BorderWx, Mreaves, and a few others at least somewhat similar (Ok Mreaves a little removed form the upslope zone). But yea, hard for you and the guys in Taunton to be posting snow obs in the same event. There is no one within 50-60 miles of me in any direction pretty much..lol. Just Mitch who never posts on here really. But am little closer for synoptic type event tracks to effect SNE and SVT.

Starting over with a fresh inch!!

Nice. I have not had a top tier weather station either, my only issue with the weather stations I have had is the Temp reading in full sun, the ones I have had are skewed really bad on the high side since they don't have FARS like the DAVIS and whatever else the top models use to combat the solar warming aspect of temps. Now, my last one I bought was like 10 years ago, so it's been a while, maybe all levels of home systems are better now. My rain sensor has been broken for years, but think most home stations now a days should still be fairly accurate. Obviously Dendrite is the go to guru on all things weather stations.

ALY AFD last night had barely mentioned more than a chance of snow showers and Woodford has 5" and some other spots had 2-3" south of me over in the DDH-Mitch corridor. Weenie Meso Models did show it nicely though. Had 1" here

32F. Snowing pretty nicely now, coating. Suck it Grinch. Ha

CAA finally arriving. 39F

That's got to be a first for DEC, no way that has ever happened before.

BML adding to that 50F+ dewpoint record for MET winter that you posted about the other day with that graph. Tack on another 9-10 hours.

Slowest moving cold front in the history of cold fronts. Not that it matters much as pretty much everything is gone, but still, that thing is creeping.

Grinchiest of all the Grinches..

Its warmer in the lower CPV of VT than the damn FL Keys on Xmas morning That's got to be a first.. Still full coverage, but going quick and back yard river is getting louder and louder.

Ughhh, sorry. Hope the crews are out to get it back on soon. High wind if the worst.

DDH running away with the gust lead in the ALY zone.

Yea, that's the date. Didn't realize it was that warm. Must have been shorter lived than this torch. I do recall it was firehose SW flow upsloping into the Taconics and Greens in SVT. 3-5" here while Albany downsloped hard and had like .30" or something absurd.

Couple years ago I had like 3.5" of rain with only like a 12" pack and didn't wipe it out. I feel like it only went down to like 6"? I cant remember the details, but it was obviously a colder cutter. Edit: Jan 2019. Some pretty bad flooding locally

What a CAD pit.. Mid 20s most of the night here and winds mostly calm as South winds are really the only winds that don't do anything at my location. Once they turn SE then its all over..ha I was at 35F and jumped to 41F in like 30 seconds with just a minimal gust and then goes calm and drops back down. I see DDH and BTV and blowing pretty good out of the south.

Well, this sucker will be a good test with the dews coupled with winds---pack eating combo.

Could be possible there is some left. Probably some good liquid in there. I'm going to be wiped out almost for sure, is what it is.

That south facing meadow pack is going to take a beating. Plenty of time to start over, especially up there.

Someone needs to find that Jspin troll of Weymouth 4 or 5 years ago. It was long too, like TIP opining about a dry FROPA long..

Had 1.1" yesterday and about 1/2" today. Winters last gasp of 2020 before the tropical rains? 2.33" LE in the pack. Wonder if there will be anything left.
