This is pretty incredible. Looks like we pretty much stayed in the 50s all night. Doesn’t happen very often even in July! Stake is down to nothing but the snowpack survives around the house, which is also incredible. And we are still at 56.

Huh? I never doubt this thing was coming or that our pack might get wiped. Also don’t care that much. We’ve had a pack for 2 months and we have another 3 months of winter to go... it’s not like we lost something we may never see again.

I take the over. Forecast is 51 and we often go over those forecasts. Didn't warm up as fast as the forecast had it though, hovered around freezing till about 6 am. It was interesting when I woke up to see how much dripping was happening at 37 degrees because of the high dewpoint. Out West 37 degrees is pure powder lol

32.9 but quite icy here. I actually thought it would be warmer by now but shouldn't be much longer

Probably not completely - pack is at 12" and the bottom layer has survived it's fair share of cutters, but it won't be pretty. That said, if things worked out the way the 12Z GFS has them I couldn't care less about the current snowpack - ready for snowpack-V2

Some nice moderate snow falling; probably looking to say goodbye to our snowpack

But let’s dream on, we are not even half way through winter up here and we’ve had snow cover for over 2 months. Happy birthday!!!

Sweet! We got 0.8 from the afternoon stuff lol

Glad to be in the sucker hole for that one

Just updated the snow total - pretty amazing how close @J.Spin and I always seem to be; sometimes he's up by an inch, sometimes I'm up by an inch. For an area where microclimates make such a difference, I feel that the fact that we are so close in outcome while being 60 miles or so away (not sure how accurate that is) should be pretty remarkable.

1.2" in the last few hours, 3.5" since last night in the "pre-squall" stuff. We'll see what else we get! Snow stake is at 13".

Sweet. Hasn't stopped snowing at all here today, let's keep it going till tonight

I used to get that anxiety as well. I think part of it is related to having lived in SNE, where building a true snowpack is challenging and seeing a snowpack getting hammered by rain is heartbreaking. Up here, most of the time a week after a major cutter your snowpack is building back up, trees are covered, and you pretty much forget about it. As a skier, your point about liquid also matters - especially for those of us who love the glades. Of course, significant cutters can do a lot of damage (I fully expect our glades to close after this weekend), but that too is part of life. Even if they close, chances are they will be back open quite soon

Focus on today, Diane.

While the snowpack at my house is only 12", the skiing these past few days has been fantastic. Met a few guys that were surprised by the conditions, they said Killington yesterday was a sheet of ice. I wonder if they've been left out of the "daily inch". Some pics from the Woods

2.3" so far this morning. Another nice snowy day! Snow stake is at exactly one foot.

That's what you get for going on tropical vacations (or SE Mass, same thing).

Yep, the daily snows continue. Love these patterns. The scenery is just awesome.

The snow has picked up again tonight. So pretty. I love these days where it just doesn’t seem to want to stop.

For the crappy pattern, beautiful snow day today! Another inch or so in the past few hours

Ah! Yes. I don’t doubt upper 40s to low 50s in my location. Hard to achieve down in the valleys, but not at all unusual in cutters up here

You think it will be 70 degrees in the Whites and the Greens?

And with the usual caveat. We all know how well 5 day forecasts pan out.

I wasn’t doubting that. But the post said 60+. I don’t doubt at all 40 and rain. I do doubt 60+

60+? When would that be for? The highest temperature in our current forecast period is 37 on Saturday...
