  1. We lost power at home around 7:45 am. Still out. We lost power for 3 days last weekend and phone/internet for 5 days. Hopefully it will be a faster fix this time around. Edit: I just checked the outage page and we are not on it anymore, hopefully that means it is back on. Reedit: false hope, the outage is back on the list
  2. BTV update https://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?site=BTV&issuedby=BTV&product=AFD&format=CI&version=1&glossary=1 NEAR TERM /THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/... As of 855 AM EST Friday...70 mph wind gust at 829 AM occurred at BTV airport which is tied for 2nd highest gust ever. Widespread power outages have occurred with numbers reaching over 47k and increasing quickly. Still anticipating bursts of very strong winds to continue for the next 1 to 3 hours acrs the region with highest gusts acrs the western slopes/eastern CPV. Rain wl impact the amount of mixing, but localized gusts 60 to 70 mph still possible. It should be noted MPV has just gusted to 53 mph, so impacts are being felt away from the western slopes, across most of central/northern VT, including the NEK associated with the winds. Interesting low top line of showers with embedded thunderstorms entering the central/southern CPV wl have to be watched carefully for potential additional mixing of winds of 70 to 90 knots at 1500 to 2500 ft agl to the surface. Once this line moves acrs the CPV and northern/central VT in the next 1 to 3 hours, our winds should quickly weaken toward noon time hour. A rumble or two of thunder is possible with this feature. By this aftn our attention turns to the flash freeze with tumbling temperatures and any leftover moisture quickly freezing, resulting hazardous travel. Freezing temps should be SLV btwn 1-2 PM, Dacks 2-4 PM, CPV 4-6 PM, and thru eastern VT btwn 6-8 PM. Based on the number of trees and power lines down acrs the region, we advise people to please avoid traveling at this time, until conditions improve.
  3. We ending up getting 20.6 inches at home. We lost power and phone late on Friday and they are still not back on. (No generator but we will certainly be looking into one). The texture was very wet and moisture laden as we were in the 32-34 degree range for the whole storm. We lost at least 4 small trees and one large one but I haven't gotten up into woods to inspect yet. Our street is lined with pines and birch for miles and there were at least 5 large trees on top of the power lines. Hopefully we get power and heat back today. I think this is my first storm above 20" since Jan 1996
  4. just did my 6 hour clearance with 5.9 inches new. 8.1 so far for the event, picking back up again.
  5. next batch of heavier snow about to move in here from the looks of radar.
  6. 4.1 inches in the last 3 hours. Up to 6.3 inches so far.
  7. 2.2 inches so far, only very light snow at the moment as we are in a bit of a lull.

  9. Woke up to a fresh dusting at the house this morning. It was also snowing nicely in Stowe as I drove through around 8am
  10. Didn't we move on from using "Blizzard" last season? Isn't the correct term now "Blizzardcane!!!"
  11.

  13. I wish I knew this song before Springsteen released his cover this week. It could have been this summer's theme song: Day in, day out, my tear stained face Pressed against the window pane My eyes, they search the skies desperately for rain 'Cause raindrops will hide my teardrops And no one will ever know That I'm crying (crying), I'm crying Yeah, when I go outside To the world outside, my tears I refuse to explain Oh, I wish it would rain (Oh, how I wish that it would rain) I'm a man and I got my pride 'Til it rains I'm gonna stay inside (let it rain) Let it rain (let it rain) Oh, let it rain
  14. It has been snowly lightly but steadily most of the day here in Hyde Park
