  1. Going going gone. Can I plant my tomatoes now???
  2. Same here. Sun goes down, bottom drops. 19 this morning, stake down to 8”
  3. 3.3 today (granted, it gets very windy in the squalls so it's hard to get a great measurement), so about 7" total since "the meltdown."
  4. Whiteout here too. Crazy snow rates.
  5. 3.4” overnight with light snow at the moment. Definitely a nice refresher to start the return to winter.
  6. Was outside measuring when the next squall arrived. It was just like a summer storm. Went from nothing to a few large flakes to a sudden wall of snow. At one point I could literally see heavy snow on one side of my deck and just a few flakes on the other. 1.7” on the first round si about 5-6”/hr? wet pasty snow, temp 31F
  7. Thanks! I actually spend most of the summer figure out how to landscape so that it looks cool in the winter. It helps that the spruces here look very good in the snow. a really nice prolonged squall. Looks like a couple of inches already but I haven’t measured
  8. It’s probably some of the heaviest rates we’ve seen all winter lol
  9. It’s dumping flakes of all sizes
  10. Getting cloudy and has a stormy feel to it. The end is near... for now. Pack survived with 11-12”, but it’s very localized and drops off rapidly as you head West
  11. In Sugar Hill for breakfast... amazing difference in snow cover outside the upslope zone. It’s down to patches here! Looks like Spring
  12. Low of 41 but walkway and puddles are freezing up. Bizarre. Stake down to 13”
  13. You should have seen last year this time lol... but then we had fully covered ski trails till May. It’s not that unusual to have big thaws that will wreck the glades - and they really weren’t that bad today. In face I kinda loved the confistins. Keep in mind that because of tree spacing and high skier traffic glades will always get bare spots after a long period without snow even if there is no melting. Everyone tends to carve in the same spots. There’s just no grooming to redistribute the snow around. And obviously no snowmaking base. Tonight is downright tropical. Not sure if you’ve been here in the summer but it’s often colder than this by this hour! We should lose a lot of pack in the next 12 hours.
  14. Summer skiing in the woods. I love it and can’t deny that the forecast for Friday onward is a bit painful after this.
  15. Started in the upper 20s and with about 15-16” at the stake. Not much melted yesterday- probably because of the low dews? Today we torch!
  16. 11 to start the day. Should be a pretty wild temperature increase today
