1. WTF is mental loss 2. You will notice it says "parts of the Northeast". This isn't one of them. Sure, top soil is dry. But there's plenty of water around. There is still water in the wetland and vernal pools around my property. It's not the Sahara you imagine

The whole "foliage is bad because of drought" seems ridiculous to me. We've had about 2.5" of rain in the past month. Sure, only 1/4" in the past 2 weeks, but tree roots are not 10" deep. Even my grass is still doing fine and I don't have a sprinkler system. If grass can be green, I doubt trees are suffering that much.

Huh?

I guess this is the easiest way to show it

I'm just about there just a little bit to the East. My house is actually directly below the West Mountain ski trails at Bretton Woods
-
That's exactly right! You can actually see it driving up 16; very often there's a wall of snow to your west/northwest, and broken clouds with flurries in the valley

Busy day so I haven't been on at all, but Pinkham Notch gets significantly less upslope than we do. Our numbers from the past couple of years seem to align pretty well with Randolph coop so I think it makes sense.

-36 was the coldest I’ve seen since moving here. It hurts

I drove to Whitefield daily last year and I can confirm that there were plenty of times when we have a foot plus and they had nothing. Literally bare ground. In fact I’ve noticed a few occasions when Littleton had significantly more snowcover. It’s a combination of lack of significant upslope, strong downslope, and poor CAD (although we are even worse on that front at the higher elevations, but we more than make it up in upslope)

By the way since I somehow hijacked this thread (I really am not using it for advertising I swear, I just thought that house would be cool for weenies like me to see) we are looking for maintenance and office people if you know anyone interested in living up here. We now manage 70+ properties, can’t hire fast enough.

I don’t think so...but I’m not a snowmobiler so I should probably find out!
-
It is. We have 2 on that road, one facing the CT river and the NEK and this one. Aside from the view, it’s a really cool house designed by some famous architect in the 60s I believe. Very quirky
-
That’s correct! It’s about 1500 ft on Dalton Ridge
-
Speaking of which, we just added this home in Whitefield to our program that has some sick views. Of course it’s in the snow hole, but it’s a sweet home in every way https://www.brettonwoodsvacations.com/rll

Carlsons is still a good place! I know the owners quite well. But of course, best lodging around is from brettonwoodsvacations.com.

Today along 302 in Twin Mountain

Looks like first frost or freeze tomorrow night. Should really speed up the leaf change!
-
We’ve had more seasonal rentals requests this year than ever before. It’s crazy.

It's funny how everyone has their thing. I like snowpack but my #1 thing is snow covered trees. Works out perfectly - most of the time - in my locale, where trees tend to be snow covered more than most other locations I've experienced, even if places like Bartlett down the notch do much better in snowpack (even theirs is generally much more short lived than ours, it can get quite a bit deeper than up here)

Just measured 1.5" on surfaces that had been cleared this morning, making the total a respectable 8" for today so far. Just light snow now -

The squalls have actually gotten more intense tonight here. Looks like we’ve added another inch or so -

A reminder that Spring is here, no matter what the weather says!
