  1. Not until July. Most nice spring days turn into a sea breeze and/or fog. I'll swim in the ocean in any weather, though, and that usually means I don't have to install until then, too.
  2. 43F and socked in with fog. Classic coastal ME spring.
  3. Four in a row of <65% of AVG (67"). This one (24") on pace for <50% of AVG. If we don't get any more significant measurable it'll end <40% of AVG.
  4. I'd like to see my Feb total stay <1". At 0.6" now so that is definitely in range.
  5. Yes, and her fiancé was by her side the whole time, so at least she wasn't alone. A friend, who knew her, said "She’s the only person I ever saw make 3 turns down the headwall on teles, knees on skis, male or female." Legend.
  6. My favorite is when people parrot what they say to give the impression they have some knowledge or critical thinking skills. Not copying/pasting the tweet - I'm talking about writing what they say, almost verbatim, and pass it off as their own (terrible) take. Seen that more than a few times from some regular, non-met posters this winter.
  7. RIP Kasha Rigby, Stowe native, who died in a slide last week in Europe. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://www.denverpost.com/2024/02/18/catherine-kasha-rigby-dies/amp/&ved=2ahUKEwiXiJOM-bmEAxXrkIkEHdS3BO4QFnoECBgQAQ&usg=AOvVaw0r5QoHvZl8eMQjnTxaK8vs
  8. Was out on Range Pond this weekend and was surprised to see the ice a solid 8-10". Hoping this turns into a net gain for the areas that need it (Ski/Snomobile country). I'd rather keep MBY dry at this point. Already had like 4 or 5 different mud seasons here, my property is a mess.
  9. If we get no additional snow this month, it'll be the 2nd least snowiest Feb on record for PWM with 0.6".
  10. Like convection fizzling as it approaches us from the west. Weak. 0.4" since midnight - 0.5"/0.02" total
  11. Yep. No trace of snow here - let alone measurable - so far this month. Was up at Shawnee Thursday night, then again Sunday. Conditions got dramatically worse in between the two trips. This clipper will help but it'll all be pushed off by middle of next week with school vacation ski traffic. Really need a solid dump or 2 to get through the rest of ski season.
  12. Congrats CT/RI/Southeastern MA folks. You guys waited a long time for this and had quite the roller coaster ride to endure to get here. Many will now be above my seasonal total of 23.7". If things continue this trajectory, this'll be the 4th consecutive season where I'm >20" below average. Not looking for sympathy, it's just snow, but for context/perspective. Things have been relatively sucky here, too.
  13. To be fair, I haven't been following this thread closely. And, to be fair, the guy routinely calls long-time posters trash/hack/losers. Good for him being accountable. Doesn't mean he shouldn't get ribbed. He can take it.
  14. Pretty realistic assessment from GYX this evening for our areas. The storm system we have been watching for Tuesday took a northward jog on the latest models runs, and show a significant snowfall for southern areas. While a change of one run wouldn`t normally justify a significant change in thinking for a forecast, we were watching for this northward trend to appear on this run. Although lacking any hard numbers to back it up, recent memory serves as a reminder that these west to east storms have trended northward beginning around the day 4 timeframe. The expectation is that the model and ensemble runs would continue to trend a little farther north over the next few runs. We`ll watch for this trend to continue, and adjust accordingly if it does not, but POPs were brought up much higher than NBM with this forecast for Tuesday in anticipation of a continued trend. While still too early to discuss specific amounts, there is certainly the potential for warning level snowfall across at least southern areas for late Monday night and Tuesday with this system. There is also a strong consensus that this system will have a sharp northern edge, with snowfall amounts quickly dropping off on the northern edge somewhere in our CWA. Where this edge ends up will be a difficult forecast challenge that we will work to resolve over the next few days.
