Multiple trees on the road just on my frontage alone. Not sure I could get out of my hood right now. Crews are here now though. Afaik road is closed the other way too. Most of the damage was after the flip back to snow last night but another tree just fell across the road a few mins ago, I guess from warming up since there's no real wind or new precip.

That's a pretty sizable area of 2' totals from around Okemo to Lebanon NH.

Welp power is out, so many branches snapping. A real mess.
-
Good amount of liquid is in the mix now.

5" accumulated with almost all IP now. Up to 32f

Guess I'm going to fill a couple gas cans. Only went through the fumes from last summer's gas for this snow blower season.

32F snow has stopped
Bobutts, for me it's not about the money anyway but the convience of not dealing with gas,oil, fumes and setup outside. Keep it in the closet, pull it in and plug stuff in. Go back to bed. Woodstove provides heat.
Yeah, I just mean you would have had to pay a ton for something that didn't work well 10 years ago and now that's not the case.

32.0F Light to almost moderate snow. Where did this come from? It started an hour ago with snow grains which I assumed was from the moist low level flow. Over the past 15 minutes it's legit snow with goof flakage. Ground is dusting white. Edit: Snow back to very light
Could this be a real birch bender/blue bomb up here tonight? If so we are redy. Recently bought a Jackery solar generator. 1000plus. No more starting the genny outside and dealing with all that at 1 in the morning. This is quiet power, no cords running outside anymore. I charged it yesterday via the sun and it should run refrig, lights etc. for 24 hours if need be. Honda genny is still here for backup.
Nice, 2k watts is not bad at all for the money. These things are way more viable than they were not long ago. Was just outside and it feels like snow despite my expectations for almost none from this. Makes me feel better to know that it's not that far away.

I made it several years with a plug in electric show thrower. It actually is great to use up to 6" or so before it's overwhelmed. The consistently bad part is the end of the drive where the plow piles it. For larger storms just have to go out multiple times. My first gas model got messed up because some genius delivered a phone book right before a storm and it embedded itself so well in the snow thrower that I had to hack it out with a reciprocating saw and titanium blade. Never worked right after that. Finally got a larger quality gas model several years go, was well worth it.

I think you are a higher elevation right next to Bow, so this may explain my friends comment of close to a foot and Biw
NWS has a 12" report from Dunbarton.

A friend of mine said he thought they had close to a foot in Bow. He’s not a weenie so he’s probably just looking outside.
7.5" here at 400' in Bow. Looks very impressive though since it stuck to everything. Power was out here from 3am until now.

Snow and mixing for hours and hours and it's still a net loss to the inch or two of slop remaining on the ground for the day.

Yes, surprisingly similar here. I was on a call and it looked like it was just foggy outside but I went out and it’s sleet mixed with snow and starting to stick on top of the slush.
Didn't last long. Now it's all rain.
-
All frozen now, mostly sleet and some flakes. That made it here fast from Bradford/Northfield.

33 with half rain half sleet. Coming down hard enough for a coating of pellets starting to creep in on the driveway.
-
Looks like a bit over 2" and now up to 33 with sleet and rain.
-
7.5" final. 3.5" first round and another 4" this afternoon.
-
Looks like clearing the snow worked as expected. Finally accumulating snow falling again.

Looks like my security cam picked up the tree falling.
