Similar to a lot of you, I had 7.4" this morning on the car at 7am.  I bet we added another 1-2" but won't know till I get home.

Seems like 7" this morning was a fairly uniform number.  

We had 7" at the mountain too but picked up a quick fluffy 2-3" with that backside burst.  Skiing seems like 8-10" without a true measurement.  

Check out the liquid this morning from east of the Spine to west of it.  Precip was at least half as much on the other side.  

Jspin takes the win locally with 1.15" liquid and tied for highest snowfall in state with this storm.

 

I saw that this morning and was thinking PF will enjoy that precip distribution....ha.

Down here in SVT--I had .93", so not as much as a discrepancy in precip from west slope to east slope.  Even the guy in Bennington had .60"--guess thats only half though of the east slope reports

Some bigger differences in RUT county with the RUT cocorahs spotters:

6.1" final  after additional 1.3" with the stuff that moved through this morning.

This 10.3" from Manchester isn't even a slant stick, that's a straight drift stick...

I had 4.8" at 7am

Really??? How is it that it's a tornado up here and you have light wind? 

 

Make the wind go away lol

Like PF said, those downsloping winds pretty well modeled in your area and western slopes of greens.  Its howling here with mod IP and still little snow mixing in.

You can see from the map JSpin psoted how BTV clearly highlights the SE downsloping with the 5/6" totals in RUT and Middlebury, but ALY down in SVT is not.  I like the BTV map, but extended down into SVT--4-6" from Manchester down through DDH--so pretty much cut those totals in half in SVT.

Think near 0% chance of 10" here as the map says.  4-6" then some pellets is usually how these play out here.

Was out of town all week and got back late Friday night, man what a pack decimation in the valleys from west of the spine to Albany last week. Even piles were practically wiped out near Bennington and Eastern NY areas like Hoosick. Have some open grass patches here too.

Hey now, I am the biggest rooter for big snows for everyone 

My bad Ginx...your certainly not all SNE all the time, that's for sure.

I just come in here to see deep snow and then log off and throw things. J/K.

Although it’s brutal here, you guys have Gone through epic shit stretches in recent January’s.  Nature balances out. Nobody has true disdain, I think it’s just frustration of how a crazy gradient has set up within 50-100 miles of certain locales.

Ha.

No, I know i was exaggerating a bit there with the disdain stuff--right, its more frustration  because of the gradient nature of this winter so far and most of SNE  accustomed to KUs appearing from oyster farts from the Atlantic.

I like to come in here because most of the time this is the happy thread...most of the posts are very positive...although whineminster had a pretty epic melt, i thoroughly enjoyed it. Please keep posting stats and pics and what not, i enjoy that you guys are having a good season

Your likes are welcomed here...think your the only poster in SNE that doesn't have some type of disdain for CNE and NNE

Lol. I always feel self conscious posting about how awesome things are exactly because of reactions like that. But yeah, things are really awesome in NNE. I love how deep it is, seeing this thick thick blanket of snow on everything. My driveway has walls on each side. The Xmas deer and sled are totally buried except for the tip of the antlers. Fire pits and seats are gone. Rock wall buried in what now looks like a completely flat surface.  Oh yeah, some small flakeage tonight here too.

Ray was jumping on some your posts in the other threads with some snide remarks, but I say post away if you want to. 

But, yea anything goes in the NNE thread.

1.5" between the squalls and little follow up arctic upslope.

Yesterday during some moderate snow

Squall line..wasn't even in the meat of the line which was south of here. 24F to 13F quickly

theres a lot of snow out there

 

its snows where it wants to snow.

38" is the Jan record? Thought it would be higher, guess the lack of orographic and distance from Coastal storms is the reason--not sure though.

Actually looking at BTV--it would be top 5, so guess its within range.

It's been snowing here for half an hour or so.  A little ahead of schedule?  Currently 13°/7°

I would say so.

About 2" down with some nice snow growth.

As excepted--ALY slices and dices totals across their area as it became evident on recent model trends. Except for southern Daks.

I just got a phone alert that we’re under a Winter Storm Watch, so I’ve added the latest BTV NWS advisories and projected accumulations maps below.

Strictly speaking for my area, I will again take the under again on an ALY map--dont see 10" here or 8" in Bennington happening. Maybe some 2k East slope spots

I'm up to just over 82".  I'm not the most exact at home but I'm also measuring/taking notes throughout events. 

All around me seems to be higher totals scattered.  Hyde Park (where a lot of my co-workers live) has 97", Underhill west of the mountain over 100", Greensboro (where Hill Farmsted Brewery is located) about 45 minutes NE of here at 120".

Snowpack has probably been the best part of this winter... we've held the snow and had solid QPF.  Precip totals aren't that different, so some of it is ratios.

Might want to have a little chat with your town cocorahs guy...he's going to bring down your long term average if he keeps this up

PF,  how much snow do you think the town of Stowe has gotten this winter?  J Spin is by far in the lead for NE snow and I'm sure the mountain is right up there but it seems just a few miles makes a big difference with upslope.  Looks like another good week for you,  I'm closer to the pesky rain/snow lines but as of tonight Im in the game for Tuesday/Wednesday

The Stowe Cocorahs guys is at 71.4"(near the town somewhere I think)I think PF mentioned his totals seemed higher than cocorahs guy though.

damaging event to the pack....not gone....but damaging.  Cut you in half.

  Your funny. Up north (NVT) barely made a dent.  After 3.5" of rain, I consider going from 13" to 7" a pretty big win in the just the retention department.

But the amount of rain, mud slides reported, ice jams, houses and restaurants flooded--it was very impressive cutter in that sense.

I was wondering how Mitch was doing out there with upslope rain and a gigantic pack 

He didn't lose that much I bet.  Probably was in the low 40s for max temps/dews and had a ton of qpf in it already.

Just as reference--had over 3" of rain here and went from 12-13" to 7"

This is now the highest rain/qpf(any season) event total I have had since moving to VT--3.13".  Over 4.5" in Dorset VT(another valley town near here).

Nice 3-5" synoptic rain storm.  Wife says it an absolute mess around town--torrents and rivers of water everywhere 

3.13" hasn't even wiped out the pack--looking at my cam, looks like it went from 12-13" down to 7"

I would be coping better if it wasn't also raining on the southern Vermont ski areas  every other storm.  

3-5" of snow rain here.

Up to 3.13" so far here.  Dorset VT up to 4.5" of rain from just this event...unreal.

I

Schools were closed down this way too.

Looks like 2.27" at home so far.   PWS over in Dorset VT already at 3.56"--jesus. Some spots will be over 4"...just awful.
