Yeah it’s really cranking out there. Looks like 2” already. 

Wife said it just switched to snow in Hyde Park and snow is starting to mix in at work in Williston. It’s go time!!

I don't think it will get that far south. UKMET is an outlier and it along with the other models all shifted back north at 12z. It kinda doesn't matter to us if it trends colder, just as long as it doesn't get so cold it shunts the whole thing south. Not seeing signs of that. It's not a super cold airmass.

Looks like a really solid overrunning event at the moment. Glad to not have to worry about phasing and stream interaction.

It’s definitely the most promising look we’ve had this winter for an easy 6-12”. At least in N VT. And if it plays out right it would be an extended period of snow which is always more fun. Glad you guys in NH have been making out alright lately! 

Might really have a melt if this next system gets shunted south and we fringe again. Unlike some of my VT counterparts I am not chill about sharing the snow and still have the PA mindset that I need to maximize every chance. I just want a large storm.

Hyde Park is a funny place and not many people know it,  surely you arent in the village.  You go up to garfield and it's another world especially with snowfall.  And temps.  Up by green river reservoir they easily get double the snow of hp village for instance.  Microclimate heaven up there.  ONly -13 in Waterbury Ctr so far

Yeah that area has some sneaky elevation and I can imagine some massive snow totals in those hills. Looked at a few houses in the area but the roads during mud season and complete lack of internet providers was a no go. Ended up with a place nearby the 100/100C junction. 

-18° already lol. See a bunch of -20s up in the NEK. Deck is popping like crazy and scaring my cats. This is definitely getting old.  

Low of -25° and up to -11° now. 

Was -20° getting in the car this morning. Second time in a week that we’ve gotten that low. The cold has been very impressive. 

This is only my second full winter living in northern VT and every single synoptic storm has found a way to screw us. The southern Greens continue to get slammed in every event and the Whites are obviously better in costal setups. I thought this low going west would finally be a good one for us but nope. 6” would be amazing. The upslope is great but even that’s been less frequent than last year. 

Low was -16 this morning and the high just -3. Back down to -6 now.  

Down to -5. Hoping you make a run at -20. If we’re not going to get the snow I’ll take the extreme cold as a reminder of the winter climate I have chosen to live in. 

Pretty chilly out there. Closest PWS is 1°F and there’s 4” on the ground. Has a deep winter feel just need a bigger pack. Rooting for the GFS this weekend lol. 

3” here and starting to crank now. Thinking we can double that at least. 

Snow just started in Williston. Going to head out soon and drive back to Hyde Park. Always interesting to see how precip and rates change as you drive through the spine. 

Pretty great weekend. Woke up to snow Saturday morning but it warmed nicely. Today was perfect for doing some yard work. The direct sun was just enough to counteract the wind. Still no leaves but the grass is plenty green.

We snow 

Currently house/pet sitting for a family in Stowe on Notchbrook rd. I think the elevation is around 1100ft so maybe that will help a little tomorrow. Took the day off of work so I can sit around and enjoy what ever snow does fall lol. 

Still full coverage here but I have a feeling by the end of the coming week even my piles will be struggling to hold on. Excited for the warmth and sun. Definitely breaking out the grill this weekend. 

Absolutely phenomenal day. It’s been snowing on and off with mod/heavy at times and breaks of sunshine. Some nice gusts mixed in too. Made for the most wintry day in a while. Now it’s down to 19° and light snow continues. 

Had 3” on the deck this morning but the sun has already obliterated it all. Still makes the remaining pack look fresh which is nice. Hopefully tonight delivers similar results.

Yeah that would’ve gone right over you.  I had other friends who assumed it was snow shedding off their metal roof.  I mean you hear it and your mind just assumes it’s anything but a meteor, ha.  Right at like 5:40pm.  Didn’t have a blender on or something?

Yeah I honestly have no clue. The wife doesn’t remember hearing anything either so maybe we were sheltered from it somehow. Bit of a bummer considering it’s a pretty rare phenomenon.

Ha that thing cruises right over my house on that trajectory.  Didn't see anything as we were looking southeast at the time when the noise hit.

I had no idea something like that could be so loud.  It was one of those "WTF is happening right now" moments.  Never seen my dog like that either... she was like "instinct tells me this is bad, we gotta get out of here right now."

“Heard and felt it from in the house midway between Stowe and Morrisville. Had no idea what it was!” one woman wrote.

“Heard and felt it in Waterbury, Vermont. Rattled the house and windows!” another added.

This is crazy. I didn’t hear or feel anything out my way but that trajectory is right over my place. Would have been fun to experience it! 

3” here. Just enough to cover up all the branches and debris from the wind. 

Just took a walk around the yard and there is still an average 19” snow depth. It was a relatively warm weekend but we only lost 4”. Really is going to turn into a glacier after this quick cold shot. It’s only my second winter up here but I kept feeling we were just one large synoptic event from it being a great winter. They have missed N. VT in all directions it seems so maybe it will still happen.

Total snow globe outside. 3.5” of fluff down and big flakes falling in slow motion all morning.
