  1. Looks like it flipped to sleet in Thornton.
  2. About an inch in Lowell, but flipped to rain. Looks like a couple inches already up north. I'm feeling like this one could be an overproducer (NWS forecasting 4-6"). Regardless, it should be a net gainer. Start rebuilding the pack!
  3. Been hovering at 32.4F pretty much all day. Looks like an inch or so on non-paved surfaces, but it did accumulate on the asphalt too, but less than an inch. Just enough for me to get out there and shovel it off. Looks like more at the cabin. I'm eyeballing about 2 inches, maybe a little more. Temp up there hovered around 31 throughout the day.
  4. I think it may have been. There was a delay of at least a few seconds. About 200k without power in MA. Still pretty gusty, so don't expect power for at least a few hours.
  5. Quick burst of precip and wind as the front passed through. One flash of lightning, big gust and sound of a transformer blowing. No power in Lowell.
  6. I'm wondering how conditions will be moving forward? It looks like the larger mountains got between 2 and 5 inches before the flip, ending up with more or less a neutral event, but I'm wondering (maybe Scott can answer best), if this rain can somehow drain, the groomers maybe sit on it (most ski areas closed today) and maybe an inch refresher, will it be bullet proof, or end up with more of just a firm base, but hold an edge kind of conditions?
  7. if/when they iron out the kinks with that lift, you'll rarely see that lift being more than a 2 minute wait. Doing some quick math, 10k'/hr may be doable, not that you'd ever see me doing that. It does look like the mountains may end up with a net zero after Friday's event. Euro suggests it may even be a gainer. Just not sure how much damage 2" of a 40F rain will do.
  8. Saturday was excellent at Waterville. 2+ feet of moderately dense snow. Loon was fantastic today. Take advantage of the great conditions because come Satuday expect surfaces to become bullet proof.
  9. Just got up north. I93 was pretty bad between exits 22 and 25. About 3" OTG, maybe a little more.
  10. Usually I'm in a bit of a snow hole, but this is one of the highest NWS snow forecast maps I've seen for my area in Thornton. Pretty close to the 18-24". Could be an epic powder day. Not too much wind.
  11. Not looking good for the Lowell area. Not that it ever was. I used to hate these events, but now I look forward to the drive north guessing what mile marker I'll see it begin to flip.
  12. Rookie move. The seasoned pro leaves a gift in the form of an upper decker.
  13. 6 hr suite have come in a little juicier. Maybe a couple inches for mountains Friday night?
  14. Will be initeresting to see what the euro does.
  15. Looks like Sunday River beat out Killington to open first... by a few hours.
  16. Lowell ended up with about 1/2" last night, but prettymuch all gone when I woke up this AM. Looks like 2 or so inches at cabin. Still snowing there, but probably not much longer.
  17. Salt truck just came by. A bit surprised, but then again, it's starting to accumulate on paved surfaces. It's good to see Lowell is on top of it. 32.7/30.4
  18. Precip started as mangled flakes and 37.9/29.6. We'll see if we can get the column to cool
  19. Looks like there are a few homes in the northwest part of town that are in the 1000' elevation. Here's one that will compete with Phin: https://www.redfin.com/CT/West-Simsbury/47-Highridge-Rd-06092/home/54002316
  20. I'm guessing they could lay down 5' wall to wall by this Saturday, nevermind the following.
  21. Below normal temps the next 2 weeks. Can only imagine their electric bill is going to be.
