  1. 8” new as of 8 AM, probably compacted. Had 1-1/2” at 10:30 last night so big thump in early AM. Light snow now, minimal wind. 30F. It was much windier here yesterday before precip started. Looks like a more impactful band is moving north after a little lull. NWS predicting another 3-8” in Montpelier through Sat AM, which would get us to upper end of predictions yesterday. With April sun angle don’t see this playing out as depth on the ground.
  2. You’re a little ahead if me. Maybe 1.5” but heavy snow now.
  3. Anecdotally, my friend who lives at 650’ in Montpelier has been all snow for the event. Up the hill here at 1200’ we have 2” down and dumping big fatties.
  4. Here too in East Montpelier. Expected at least a bit of rain before changeover, so promising.
  5. After a bleak stretch, just what the doctor ordered. Spine looks to get blasted with heavy wet then increasingly higher ratios in upslope portion of storm.
  6. Around 3” here in East Montpelier, the majority overnight. Snow was in the air all day but didn’t amount to much more. Mountains needed this boost heading into the Holiday weekend.
  7. Finally a little Northern Greens refresh. Looks like 3-6 for mountains with Thursday’s clipper too.
  8. The axis of the snow shield on radar and satellite has definitely shifted more SW/NE than W/E. Is northern stream interaction helping here more than expected?
  9. Possibly. Wasn’t wearing my glasses. Just trying to stay entertained. No skin in the game up in the North Country. Just rooting for you all.
  10. Also, center of circulation appears to be more in western third of Tennessee rather than eastern half depicted by 7:00 PM GFS and Euro modeling position.
  11. Time to start focusing on actual storm evolution on satellite and radar. I like the SW Ohio marker discussed earlier.
  12. Same sentiment here. Happy for those south of the VT border finally cashing in, but just a bit to freshen things up would be nice. Seems like storms with the right airmass to get both a northern and southern NE hit is a thing of the past.
  13. The late in the game NW trends on these southern streamers have all been within 96 hours. Too soon to spike the football.
  14. Still too early and with a lot of model spread on amount of phasing and resulting track. I remember the days of yore when the Euro ruled in these events at this timeframe and nail biting in this case for a whiff would have been far less. NW trends in GFS as coastal events approach have been pretty reliable this year as SNE forum members know all too well.
  15. I find the Stowe snow report to be pretty accurate to conditions. No real bs making it sound better than it is like some other resorts. Yes, a “fun challenge” has been the pretty common “not so great but you are not going to die” refrain for some of these post-marginal events or dry periods.
  16. Thanks for the info on this. Interesting and good to know.
  17. Yes, I’ve noticed a huge grooming difference Gondala runs versus blues off Forerunner this year. Interesting to hear groomers have their set trails.
  18. It was just spectacular scenery on the mountain today, and although certainly not the best snow conditions, the morning was pretty good, especially on Perry and Gondolier.
  19. Thanks for the post. It put a smile on my face. So great that you are out there on the mountain.
