  1. Not expecting much but can’t deny the classic CAD signal. 3” thump to drizzle would be a win in This pattern
  2. For those of us in CAD land the euro and gfs are starting to come into agreement for Thursday. Looking like a net gainer type deal for now.
  3. -17 wind is howling. Just stepped out to the wood shed and it’s pretty exhilarating. Nice night to sit next to the stove.
  4. Great spot, rode into there a few years ago from Stratton. About as good as it gets for trailside food and drinks.
  5. Agreed. The 3 week shift is aligned with ice out trends statewide. Give or take 10 days on either side of the season.
  6. There is just so much memory bias when it comes to big cold and big snow. The trends are all around us, we are getting warmer, but attributing seasonal anomalies to CC is disingenuous. I try to tell that to my very liberal friends and family and they look at me like I'm benedict arnold. There are not a whole lot of people around here who can remember that stretch in the 40s 50s clearly, but there are many who have vivid memories of cold periods in the 60s and 70s and that's what they compare every winter to.
  7. Sebago Lake is quite the sight right now, freezing spray and slush waves everywhere. Car thermometer is at -4. Made me think of this ice out date chart for the Lake. The points on the x axis are dates when the big bay didn't freeze. The clusters in the last two decades will surprise no one, but interesting to note the cluster in the 40's and 50's, which others here have noted was not a good winter stretch. Take the data pre 1900 with a grain of salt as well.
  8. Strong signal from op gfs for another good period of orographic snows into mid next week. Euro not quite as robust. We’re into bread and butter season it seems!
  9. I posted late last week that I thought favored upslope spots could do 6-12” during this period. Where are you at since last Friday?
  10. Just an absolutely stunning perfect mid winter ski day exactly how you script it. .
  11. 3” of Utah snow overnight. Nice little over performer. Incredible scene out there this morning. I’m at 45” on the season, about 55% of climo.
  12. This has been a really nice wintry stretch going back to the 4” we had around mid month.
  13. Yup, almost an inch here too. Hovering around 31.
  14. This week is quiet but next week could have some trackable events starting with Monday 2/6. Also nothing to stop Friday from trending N so worth watching for SNE.
  15. folks around here do it on the ice at night and hop out with the AR like it’s Nam lol. I don’t hunt but appreciate folks like yourself doing your part to help manage wildlife. I’ll stop before i get told to take it to banter.
  16. It’s industry wide. Records set across NE over the last 2 weekends. The demand has never been higher which I think speaks to a hangover effect from COVID demand on outdoor access and the marketing strength (especially social media) of the outdoor industry as a whole. Everyone wants to be like their favorite instagram influencer. Season pass sales have been very strong from what I’m told and the value of an epic or ikon pass is still very good for your average 5-10 day a year skier.
  17. Biggest harvest since the 50s this year. IFW biologists must be happy. Gonna have to deal with the coyotes next, not enough people hunting them. Cougars and wolves would help.
  18. Nice qpf signal for the favored spots in NNE over the next 4 days. Some might see another 6-12”? Ensemble means are snowy through the end of the period as well. Nice to see things rolling along as they should in the heart of the season.
  19. Awesome bit of history, thanks for sharing. Truly a winter of yore. Thanks to our obscene obsession with tort law they cancel school now if it's cloudy.
  20. Check out this side street in town. We are buried! .
  21. 6.5” I actually wished for a moment I lived in SNE cause that stuff was as bad to deal with as anything I’ve seen. Normally I can do my removal in an hour but this morning it took closer to 3. Snowbanks around here are massive!
  22. temp dropped to 21. heavy snow now. just measured 3.5" and it looks like heaviest rates should arrive soon.
  23. what radar product do you recommend for our area
  24. 23, mod to hvy snow, 2.5". Gonna really need to pound next 3-4 hrs to hit low end of forecast. 0z NAM products bring the midlayer warmth in faster than 18z. Curious what I find in the morning, but it's deep deep winter out there right now.
