  1. temp holding at 33.6. The sleet is accumulating, but no snow as of yet.
  2. Whereabouts are you these days? I hope you have NH plates. :/ I hear they've been giving out of staters the one finger wave.
  3. Sleet past 15 minutes. There's a warm layer. :/
  4. Snowing at Waterville, or at least it had been. 35.7/31 here at 1100', 34.5 at 1600'
  5. 37.8/33. I can see the cloud deck, so I assume it's falling as rain, but it's likely snowing down to about 2000' on MWN based on their temperature profile. Unfortunately the base lodge cam at Wildcat is down.
  6. Dang, so close, but at least entertaining.
  7. Without the groomers it was bulletproof over the weekend. Thank God I had just tuned my skis. But today was great!
  8. Over performers are the best. Closing in on 6" already
  9. 28.8/26 about an inch OTG. No problem sticking to all surfaces up here.
  10. First flakes in Thornton, 29.5/21
  11. Cabin back yard faces due north and slopes down, so great snow retention. I'd guess it's between 8-10" deep and probably 3-4" of water content.
  12. When was your leafout in '12?
  13. big members from the super weenie
  14. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/waterville-valley-resort-master-plan-120010442.html Much needed! WV is pretty boring, but it's gotten better with the expansion of Green Peak (and they still need more glades). Connecting the mountain to the Village would push WV on par with BW and Loon. Maybe even an experience unlike any other in NH if done right. Hit Bretton Woods Sunday. Had an absolute blast. That mountain has come a LONG way since the 80's. Dare I say it, but it's my favorite NH mountain.
  15. Good to know. Most times I don't if it's not a quantifiable amount, but I guess it doesn't hurt. Thanks!
  16. I've had a trace the past 3 days. Does anyone report trace amounts?
  17. Great video, thanks for sharing, brings back memories. I was living at 40 Sarah Ave in Lowell (I think Dave lived in the same house on the first floor). It started as rain for me, so I jumped in my Toyota Celica and drove west along 113 to Townsend where it turned to snow. Turned around and the R/S line more or less followed me east. I stopped in the Blue Moon in Tyngsoboro for a couple beers, lol. A friend was taking the LSAT's the next day and they didn't cancel! He came up form the Cape early Sat. morning and said it was rain the whole way until he got only about a mile south of 495 on Rt. 3 where apparently the R/S line held for much of the storm. I think we ended up with somewhere in the 18-24" range, but just a few miles south the amounts were significantly lower.
  18. I've lived in Lowell more than half my life and 32" at this date is probably average. I'd even wager more than average. I wonder if UML keeps annual snow totals?
  19. Was Jan '96 the ice storm? Yeah, Waterville took a nasty hit. About 50% soft snow/ice on the surface. Banged out 3 runs, called it a day. Definitely higher elevations took it worse. It was probably in the low 50's above 3k', around 42 at 2k'. My backyard down to 2" of wet snow, from 9" Friday. Depressing, but they should partially recover by weekend. Scott, how does Stowe plan out the week? Do they focus on a few runs one at a time, or spread out the guns?
  20. Skied Tenney Friday for the first time. Talk about old school. Thin cover, no trails marked closed, barely any trail signs, narrow, windy, bumps and rollers, exposed brush, a few rocks. I loved it Psst, it's the mountain you want to hit after a dumping, like this upcoming Sunday (fingers crossed!)
  21. Models cut back on rain. Now about 1" for my area. Currently 9.25" snow with 1.95 liquid in core sample. Praying for CAD overperformer.
  22. 30.5 here in Thornton after about 1/2" of snow. Been freezing rain past few hours. Kinda surprised by the low temps.
