Increased intensity in Warren VT again..... So damn beautiful.

Not expecting this much in Warren VT already.  Has to be over 12".  Much lighter now but probably picked up 1-2" in the last hour.  Table was clear last night.

Pure luck I am renting an A-frame in Warren VT for the week.  Now expecting 12-18" with about 10" already.  Definitely can retire here.....

Renting an A-frame in Warren VT.  Just perfect timing I guess.  Beautiful here..I would say around 8" already.  Yesterday's WWA for 4-6" went to WSW for 5-12", now to 12-18".

Really looking nice now ...

After some ZR....finally snowing.  Maybe ground will get white.  What a terrible winter even here in Snowshoe.  They have almost every trail open but only because of their amazing snowmaking.  

Not in Snowshoe this weekend but my weather station is reading -11.5° in the village.  Wind chills have got to be -30°.

Snowshoe, WV. I think we’re in a little radar hole here, but maybe not. I’m not sure I trust it.

You should get light snow most of the day there.  Radar won't show the lighter upslope events, unfortunately.  Make sure to cover everything if going out to the slopes today!

You mean this one?  http://www.raymondcmartinjr.com/weather/2001/30-Dec-00.html

Yup, that's the one.  2 feet in Roxbury Twp, where I grew up.  Absolutey the heaviest snow I ever saw that early afternoon.

Terrible skiing weather today.  29° ZR, wind howling in Snowshoe.  Will git slopes tomorrow instead.

Nothing like Buffalo but dry, powdery snowfall.  An additional 1" today and blowing around.  

Just arrived in Snowshoe.  17° with light snow.  Fresh 2-3" since yesterday.  Snowmaking is on its 3rd day and major whales have formed.  Looks like they will be able to open for Thanksgiving.

25° in Snowshoe this morning.  1-2" overnight.  More coming this evening.

In Snowshoe this weekend.  I have to assume this is NOW the last snow of the season.  Several inches are in the forecast but more of an October snow where ground temps are pretty warm.  We will see.

Yep, gusts around 30-35 a few times. I’ve got 26 on the weather station for the temp. Snow has been coming down good the last few hours.  Seems like at least 8” should be a good bet at this rate. 

Not in Snowshoe this weekend but glad you guys are seeing the snow.  21° on my weather station but can't tell you what has fallen.  Last day of season tomorrow.

Today won't be the last of the snow there either. Next weekend into early the following week looks cold w/upslope and maybe some enhancement from a clipper.

Saw hints of that on long range.  Next weekend is final days of season anyways.  Lots of their seasonal workers already leaving.

Last Snowshoe snowfall was NOT last Saturday.  Snowing now, 29°.  Trying to squeeze out 1-2" of upslope this morning.

Sun had come out here earlier this afternoon but upslope has started again.  10 degrees, SN, and winds gusting into the 40s pretty consistently.  Had a 50 mph gust a bit ago.

WSW calling for 2 additional inches of snow through tonight.

Exactly right!  Down to 7° in Snowshoe and in between squalls is sun.  I'm thinking ratios are 16-18 to 1.  Seems like a mod squall is leaving an additional inch.  No way of telling exact accumulation but definitely verifying 8 or more.

Snowshoe:

Mod Snow to heavy snow squalls thought the morning and afternoon.  Whiteout during heaviest squalls.  Not sure how much has fallen but very high ratios.  Still sitting around 16°.  

Snowshoe:

Cold front came through around 1 am at 43°.  

17° Mod snow, looks to be 3-4".  Awesome ratios, hopefully continued upslope today.

After heavy rain, grass showing, snow guns are running again, snow falling, Temp 24 and dropping.  Even in Snowshoe, the winter has been bad.  This time last year, about 20" of snow pack.  They need one more storm in March to keep running through April.

If anyone is keeping track of Accumulations, Snowshoe 24hr total I measured 3-5” range for the 24hr total…. Although I think only 2” or so Of that came from the system the rest was What I assumed to be NW Flow all day today ….sitting at 10 degrees currently …. Maybe that band back west will come thru overnight.  

About 3" right now and snowing lightly in Snowshoe.  Wouldn't be surprised to see 1-2" tonight.

Snowing lightly all day in Snowshoe.  Temperature around 20°.  Should be some additional upslope tonight.  Beautiful Super Bowl Sunday.

Snowshoe people @Potvinsux @jonjon and others: is April a bad time to visit? Looking for a small spring break trip somewhere with the family. Guessing it might be a lot of 40-50F clouds and wind? 

Are you looking to ski or just get away? Snowshoe has stayed open till April some years but usually only till April 1.  There is always a chance they stay open later but most seasonal employees leave by then so it's hard to keep things open.

April and May are the shutdown months and it's a ghost town.  Not much is opened at all.  These are the times where they transition from ski to bike, maintenance, clean up, etc

Left Snowshoe this morning.  Upslope was awesome last night.  Very fluffy, great rates.  Around 20-24" total but too hard to tell.
