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.

Funny - I was telling Aaron yesterday that the forecast was calling for sunshine but the AFD said the storm is in the Gulf of Maine, and I told him - I doubt we see sunshine with a storm in the GOM. And in fact, the flurries have now turned to light snow again, nice fluffy flakes. Maybe a break tomorrow ahead of the next storm? Nice to see a good winter stretch for a change. I'm headed to Jamaica in late February; would love to have a few good weeks of winter till then, then flip the switch lol

A nice gentle snowfall continuing. I assume it’s now upslope?

Skiing today was amazing. Dropping (droppin’?) ropes everywhere. Glade West open again. Most terrain this season by a large margin. Snowing more lightly but still snowing. Sweeeeeet

Wow, snow has really picked up. Let's keep it up and open up some glades...

About 3” here; 7” at the stake. Surprisingly dense

Similar here, about an inch. Still coming. Was very light at first but then it really got going. Temperature dropping too, 27

Ripping

Actually snowing pretty well now

Light snow started here, 30F. Only expecting a few inches so they’d better not delay or cancel school lol

GYX seems rather unenthusiastic for snowfall over our area, only 2-3” and no mention of any upslope. I guess it’s better than nothing but on a regular year that’s just an overnight flurry lol

Thought to say - maybe 6” or so natural base? It definitely feel wintry even though it’s a thin pack

Adorable

Skied Cranmore today. Got rough in the afternoon but still had fun. Love the vibe of the small, old fashioned New England ski hill. So different from Bretton Woods. Weather was a bit bizarre - surprisingly warmer than here. Was 20F at my house and 31F when we got there. Stayed constant all day there, “warmed” to 22F here. Usually don’t see this much difference or it’s in reverse due to CAD. A few on and off snow showers and some brief light freezing rain. Surprisingly nice views from such a small mountain, but hard to capture in a photo.

That’s call a northwesterly flow for us. But y’all say its fake

Similar here. Beautiful

Indeed

I noticed that the camera is deceiving at night. Snizzle looks like heavy snow. Only got 3/4” in the last 24 hrs or so. I have 4.5” at the stake but it’s cement

Yep. I’ll keep it vague for privacy reasons

Wasn’t expecting the snow today… nice!

I feel Canadians are like puppies. You’ve gotta be a serial killer not to like them.

Yes. And the sticky snow that’s falling tonight really changes the vibe - the trees look really pretty. Great for those coming up for the weekend.

Ended up as a net gainer here, which I wasn't expecting. Didn't melt very much during the day, although it became VERY water logged. Back to snow now. Actually not a bad base for the ski area, after all.
