  1. Maybe they are being objective, rather than looking through thick snow goggles.
  2. Hoping most of SNE folks on this forum can have track and dynamics set up to overcome the marginal airmass and get a positive bookend to a frustrating winter down there. Even up in N Central VT, NWS still throwing in chance of some rain in broad valleys on front end of storm. Rooting for you all.
  3. 7.5” new on the board at 6:45. All from ~midnight on. Looks like I missed seeing intense snowfall rates from a couple hours ago. Moderate snow. 28/25. Almost no wind.
  4. Last day of a trip to Jackson NH yesterday and skied for a couple hours at Wildcat mid morning to early afternoon. Incredible conditions in heavy snow and wind direction perfect for filling up tracks every run. Best powder skiing I have had in quite awhile. Consistency of snow was western-like. Was skiing with folks who really knew the mountain, so didn’t have to think at all. Wish I had longer, but a travel day. My ski companions said skiing stayed epic all day.
  5. Love this video. I was stuck in an inter lodge at the Peruvian in Alta a dozen or so years ago for 12 hours, but the skiing available after release before the Canyon opened was epic. Only downside was I lost a ski in deep powder and despite powder straps took me 25 minutes to find it. My girlfriend ar the time, now my wife, helped me look for a bit then ditched me because powder was too good. I couldn’t blame her.
  6. Arctic front through here with a vengeance at 5:45. Heard it first with plastering of snow wet snow against window. Now swirling winds and SN+.
  7. Discouraging AFD this PM from NWS Burlington. We need Cindy Lou Who to give the Grinch a talking to.
  8. Unless you have exposed pipe in a crawl space or totally uninsulated area, would not see the temps we are experiencing as huge risk for pipes freezing.
  9. Stowe only reporting 10” at 6:00 this morning. Better dynamics stayed south.
  10. Very strange. Mountain reporting only 10” storm total as of this morning. I am at 15” + here at 1200’ in E. Montpelier.
  11. 7” new just measured brings storm total here to 15”. High end for what was predicted. Always great when that happens. My neighbors generator is running so probably lost power. Our Powerwall system always makes it unclear when grid power is down. Nice storm.
  12. You are outpacing me now, although I think I’m dealing with compaction. I measured that I am up to 8”. Just took a walk in the big fields nearby, and it seemed more like 10+ walking through it. After major lull around 5:00 to 7:00, has really picked back up. Has been next to no wind with this storm.
  13. About the same here. Measured 6-1/4 as of 45 minutes ago but snow rate has noticeably picked up and increase in flake size. Pretty happy so far with storm. Given better dynamics into overnight hours, I bet we make a run at a foot in these parts.
  14. Just took first look outside. Snow had just recently started. Looked snow globe-ish in my headlamp beam. Nice moderate rate.
  15. I remember the front end thump of this storm being the most impressive I had ever experienced. 10 inches fell in just a few hours. Perfect flakes stacked up beautifully. Went snowshoeing in it down in the woods behind my house. Amazing memory.
  16. Yep, still cancel, and basically the whole state is already closed.
