Been seeing some crazy good skating on Sebago. 

those vids are very cool. i'm not far from there, about 20min drive to that side of the lake. About 3" of ice is what they're saying

Surprisingly PWM is 0.6 AN for Jan. 

SE Mass might still score......but enjoy the cirrus everyone else.  Congrats Nova Scotia.

18z EPS, Looks like a quite a few broke to the west of the mean.

not that it's going to happen, but a direct hit would result in how much sn? 12-18"?

Stop whining…this is winter. Embrace. Enjoy. New England at its finest right now. This is what you moved up here for. 

Did you get to the Country last wk?

16.5". What a change from couple wks ago when all the bitching and nooses were starting to come out. Deep winter rolls on.

16.5" final. Deep winter. 

Were you going up to the county next week?

Not sure about there but the stuff we got here will not pack well if at all.  It's about as dry a snow as I've seen.  We've gotten about another 3" since I finished snowblowing around 9:30 and it is almost like every single flake is adding the most it possibly can to the accumulation total.

12" of pure champagne

Absolutely insane…just got back from the walk…it wasn’t fun.  Absolute frigid(6 degrees), with wind and incredibly heavy snow..visibility was an 1/8th mile. What a storm…gonna be some huge totals.

Here's GYX.   I really don't know what to think........not sure we can achieve those snow amounts on 2/3 of the qpf Mass is getting.

From the sky is falling to busting out the nooses, to bitching about the season last week to high fiving and jubilation now. good luck one and all

This past weekend brought the first audible sled noise I've heard this winter, but no use yet on the club trail thru our woodlot.  Our new neighbors (probably will build this coming warm season) plowed the road past our place last week, including about 1/2 mile of that club trail.  Once the new crew is living on the lot, the club might need to either relocate that half mile or abandon a large segment of their trails.

is that near hampshire hill?

Went for my first snowmobile ride of the season today.  Left from Topsham/Groton and headed up through Peacham to Danville and Walden. Most of the ride was between 1500' and 2000'.  We did get up as high as 2300' a couple of times.  I didn't stop to measure but I would say the snow depth was between 1' and 3' on average.  It was a beautiful day to be out with temps hanging in the low 20s and light snow falling for most of the day.  Most here aren't overly familiar with this part of the state, long ago poster Allenson used to call the area the Near Kingdom because its similar to the NEK.  Really beautiful area.

Nice. Was riding this past wknd with Dryslot up in Eustis. Trails were good there, especially by the NH border. Heading to Jackman for fri/sat riding, but not liking the cold predicted for sat. Definitely will need the gauntlets, but the Doo ones don't fit well on my Polaris. 

Only 1.6", but wasn't expecting much anyway. Add this to the 2.25" over the wknd and the pack is back to where it was before the last meltdown. 

Some areas are doing well but not the majority. Every time we start building a base, it gets knocked back. I’m near 40” on the season but haven’t gotten to 10” otg at any point. It’s been below normal in terms of snowpack. In fact, I bet even the mountains are only doing well north of I-89.
