    Yeah of late, but I still think our region wide chances of a huge snowstorm climo wise is higher in March?

    Need like December 2007 or 2008 or 2009 type months… weren’t those relatively good years?  Maybe not 2009?  

    We got 39.4 inches in Dec 2017 with 10.8 inches on Christmas Eve into Christmas morn. That worked.

    We also watch Covered Bridges. It’s been wet since Sept 1 and with trees/vegetation shut down largely… 2-4” should run off fairly efficiently.

    Anyone who sees 4”+ in the hilly E.VT area with narrower valleys and force multipliers could get interesting.

    FYI- BTV is doing an experimental change to its Winter Storm Warning criteria for this season:

    Quote

    Beginning this winter season the National Weather Service Burlington Forecast Office will test a change to the Winter Storm Warning Snowfall Criteria in its County Warning Area of responsibility.  This change is intended to simplify messaging and align snowfall criteria for Winter Storm Warnings more closely based to climatological impacts. There will be no changes to the Winter Weather Advisory snowfall criteria. Historically, the National Weather Service Burlington County Warning Area snowfall criteria has been the following:  6 inches of snow in 12 hours or  9 inches of snow in 24 hours The new experimental criteria for this winter season will no longer consider the time frame. This will allow for a more event driven approach to messaging.   The experimental Winter Storm Warning Snowfall Criteria will be the following:  7 inches of snowfall during a winter storm event

    I hadn't seen anything about how Sable Island fared but I found an article:

    As for the few hundred horses on the island, they likely survived relatively unscathed, he said. Parks Canada staff do not manage the population, and there are rules in place to prevent humans from interacting with the horses or touching them.

    Surette said normally the horses find shelter in tall dunes during storms, and by midday Saturday, the horses were out grazing "almost as if nothing happened."

     

    In short, good news

    Yup…it looked familiar to me. Isn’t there a ski area across the street from the place…is it Bretton Woods?  My girl and I stayed in North Conway at a bed and breakfast  6-7 yrs ago in August, and we went over one evening to eat and drink…gorgeous place. If I remember correctly, can see the back side of Mt Washington from there no?
