All about the mid level temps. CAA beginning aloft.

And no longer light snow - it's now cat paws

Temp has climbed to 33, but it's switched to light snow. It figures - drizzles below freezing, snows above freezing. 

Didn’t really get to measure; resort says 5” and they’re usually pretty accurate with what I measure, but it was wind blown and squished down by this morning so hard to tell. My stake went from 14” to 22” to 12” overnight lol 

Now the wind is completely gone. Bizarre

No idea how much we got big it’s pounding. And my deck posts now look like ice cream cones

Its insane here right now. Just put up 55mph on my Davis roof mounted anemometer. True house shakers.  28.7F with lt snow and blowing snow.

The wind is crazy here too. Feels like an evening at the Mt Washington observatory lol

Windy as hell here in BW

I actually saw a little snownado in the yard lol as I was looking at the floodlights 

Had a very scary drive home. Heavy snow and wind ripping, couldn’t see a thing. 21.7F, so a while before any changeover

28/19  Snow started 1pm

Blast from the past.  This just came up on my face book feed.  How many years ago, Alex?

Wow, that’s gotta be 5-6 years ago at least! Funny. 
 

In the current weather department, snow just started. Would be great to avoid too much rain and keep the powder - doesn’t look too bad right now, but things can change and this year in particular caution is always good!

Snow just started here

You live in an elevated location in interior NNE. Something would have to go terribly wrong for you to get skunked 

A lot HAS gone wrong in the first half of this winter... Sure, it may be statistically unlikely that we have a whole "winter of skunk", but it's not like we had a great first half of the season. At least now it's more like it should be - and we'll still get our rain (Thursday, it seems?), but that's part of climo even in NNE. 

This week definitely hasn’t felt like a disaster here. It’s now the 6th day in a row with snow (sand-like snowfall tonight after very fluffy stuff in the past few days) with a winter storm watch for 6-12” of additional snow. Skiing is amazing, and they’re getting ready to open the areas that are still closed; should be about fully open by the weekend. Glade skiing has been awesome. Give me a few more weeks of this and I’ll be happy to switch to spring.

Had to post this map in the NNE thread. It wouldn't be nice in any other thread.

Lol. At least not among the non skiers/snowmobilers etc

Always got a kick being at a ski area when the kids locally schools were shut down for snow. Zero problem getting to a ski area but big problem getting to school  lol.

Ours only had a 2 hour delay to allow for road clearing. Keep in mind the issue is the school bus. Some people have to get on a bus at 6 to get to school

Amazing day

Sweet sweet skiing

Last evening there was a meso-band on radar arcing right through C.VT... Killington area and just north of there.  Heading up towards your area.

Can see it on the reports pretty well with 8-12" overnight in that zone.

Got it. Thanks!

Can see the swath on CoCoRAHS of snowfall ending at 7am.

Probably moving a bit south of there today?  But that's generally the modeled axis in this storm.

What are the colors? Wondering what that red dot next to me is

Is there a difference between 7" of advisory snow compared to warning snows? Asking for a friend.

Lol. I prefer 7” advisory. Less space for disappointment. 

7” here. Not bad given we just had an advisory 

A lot heavier snow than I was expecting here

Haven’t been following the forecast but got caught in some really heavy snow between Lancaster and Bethlehem. Looks like they increased amounts to 4-8”. We’ll see! Be safe everyone. 

Light snow started. Small storms, but with the snow in between its felt quite wintry. Today is day 4 or 5 of consecutive snow? Let’s get greedy and see if we can get to a week.
