It is dumping here

Very elevation dependent around here. Snow here at home at 32F, about 3/4”, but it was plain rain in Groveton all the way to Twin Mountain

Just not to break the streak, got light snow last night and overnight, making it 13 consecutive days of measurable snow. Pretty impressive given the last few years

Spectacular day

Oh I’m sure. It’s sheer ice on that side. But only a short drive away from here if one wants better snow

Just looked at the report. Bretton Woods has 57/63 trails open, plus 9 glades. Definitely can’t complain (but you’re right, Conway has not been doing great, although I’ve heard Attitash wasn’t so bad - it’s hardly ever great anyways)

That’s not quite correct. Some areas are doing great. Today marks the 11th consecutive day of measurable snow here, with about 2 feet or so total. The snow quality is absolute champagne powder, not a hint of ice anywhere, and even the glades are open. I’d say it’s our best MLK in several years. People just don’t seem to know about it given how many homes we still have available for the weekend.

3” overnight total

The west side almost always has better snow overall… just more melting in cutters

Dumping. Another little overperfomer

Getting some really nice snow tonight with large flakes. About 1.5” so far

Hey it's snowing again. I think this makes it day 8 of measurable snow. Not bad for not a stellar winter

Agree. I can’t imagine spending a winter up here not liking the cold. But yes winter sports are not cheap - especially downhill. My kids are in the race team and it’s a constant spend on this pay for that

Haha. Preposterous

We got a little peak of snow this afternoon after the flurries ended, it was glorious!

Littleton is a terrible place for snow. Funny thing,many people around here LOVE Littleton because of that. I tell them I live in Bretton Woods and they respond “eew, you guys have terrible weather.” And I love Littleton but wouldn’t want to live there because of their weather lol. That said, right now there’s a pretty big difference between Bretton Woods and most surrounding areas, including Conway. Most of the snow since the holiday grinch has been upslope, and that’s quite localized. Many days this week I’ve driven the kids to school in Whitefield and seen it go from several inches of fresh powder at home to a dusting or an inch at school. Just the quirks of mountain weather

Love ghost trees

It’s definitely something special to live in an area where you can get days of days of snow. And I love how reliable and yet unpredictable it is. The forecasts hardly ever get it right, so all you know is that there will be snow in the air. Could be flakes, could be inches. 17” this week without a single inch from a storm is pretty cool. While we usually don’t get big snows from coastals like further east, these patterns are incredible. One of the reasons we chose this area over North Conway. Upslope is a great insurance policy for a weenie, it makes winter so much more interesting and less aggravating

Holy cow. Got another 6” overnight

Oooh happy birthday PF!

I don’t want to anger the SNE weenies but this pattern has been amazing. Wish we could just have this all season long lol. Not sure what’s changed but after the 3-4 days of wind and small flakes we now have giant flakes piling up fast. So nice.

Great snow growth tonight. About 2” in the last 3 hours

It’s been snowing quite well today, one of the nicer upslope periods in a while

The wind stopped here but the snow continues. It’s been a great week from that perspective, just shy of 6” total in a Narnia-like pattern. Roads not great but not awful either.

The past few days have have felt like living in an arctic area with the fine constant snow, the wind and the drifting. I hate wind but it’s been cool in a way, very raw. Another 2-4 is in the forecast for tomorrow, I’m hoping it helps open a few more glades assuming that the snow tends to stick around much better in glade trails
