    Just saw a report of 16” in Wilmington, VT on the morning news. Is that even possible this early?

    I believe it, that whole town's power is out. That is a perfect spot for this setup.

    Lost power here too about an hour ago, sucks. I lost 3-4 hours of white rain and still have 8-10" eyeballing.  Absurd cakeage out there.

    I’m probably in 80s. No 100 for Mitch, even Stratton peak only 107”

    I need to double check, but I'm even mid 80's here The COOP near Bromley is over 100" and the other Cocorahs guy past Bromley is near 120".  Mitch at 100 makes sense for sure.

    You miss alot of tiny events that add up not being here full time, which i dont think you are?

    Anyway, looks good as of now for the Mt Snow up to Stratton corridor.

    Well, we know BTV is just including you guys to be nice.  They don't put much effort into you ALY guys.

    Lol, I know.  Basically I think they collaborate and just cut and paste for the ALY zones from ALY maps when they put out for BTV covered area. 

    ALY map looks just like that for SVT, go I am hedging against ALY--hope I am wrong, just seen this mid level warmth song and dance too many times I feel like.

    I’m in the northern tughill plateau. I saw the guy from Adirondack posting, which is a stone throw from here. So o figured I could post in here since lakes thread is non existent 

    Yea, no worries, wasn't sure where you were located and clicked on your profile and then saw you were near the Tug which makes sense with that amount.

    All these wxstation pics with interior temp 60. Toasty 73 here with the pellet stove cranking away.

    Well, that pic was like 630ish AM in my family room before anyone was up. Keep it 60-62 over night. Have 4 zones in house and a jotul stove, no problem heating up areas when I need to.

    Not sure if it's industrywide or not, but the past 2 Saturday's have been the busiest I've seen at Waterville in the past 10 years. Cars were parked alongside the road about 1/4 mile from the Tripoli Road intersection. I think it's great for the industry, but the selfish part of me was like I'm not heading out until noon (which was what I did yesterday). It still was an amazing day. Top 3 for this season. I made a post earlier this season that I didn't think there would ever be more than a 5 minute wait with the new 6-pack bubble lift, but sure enough I'm eating leather. I avoided that lift yesterday and longest line wait was maybe 2 minutes. Even the ride back to Lowell was congested on 93 between exit 20 and the Hookset tolls. That's something I never really have to factor in the winter.

    I dont normally hit any of the local spots on weekends unless friends or family are town, but 9pm on Friday there were so many cars heading from Manchester up the mountain towards Stratton it looked like an endless funeral procession or something. Never seen it like that on a Friday night at that time.

    Had to have been a record crowd yesterday at Stratton. I have never seen cars parked for a mile down some of the access roads. And of course with the crowds everything skied off quick. Ended up having less snow and more sleet then forecast with the first storm. On to round 2.

    Friend stopped by earlier that works there and said definitely busiest of the year. 10k+ yesterday.  I dont know, maybe everyone thought it was 12"+of fresh as opposed 4-5 of sleet/snow?

    Take all of that with a grain of salt. 

    I mean yea I figured, but they still put the numbers in there so was taking it on some face value.  I have seen some JSpin 40 or 50-1, but they are one offs with zero wind and much smaller events if I recall.

    Why even put those liquid totals in there then? All 66" is like 50-1 or even more.

    Wolfie I know you scoffed at the once in a generation AFD IN Buffalo but yowzers. So many dead. The combination of severe cold severe wind and straight up 40 hrs of Blizzard was the worst of my generation.

    39" on 50-1 ratios, damn.   And those last 6" at 100-1...lol.   That depth is nuts too.
