Over to snow at Lost River. Wow, a beautiful sunset. It's raining hard but snow just above me. The sun is shinning through heavy snow. I'll try to post a pic

+TSRA here too. 38.6F. (.65") Sky is becoming pink to the west so looks like there will be a sharp cut off. Alex up at Bretton Woods says 50/50 snow rain but he can see ski trails getting white just above him.

Thunderstorm with moderate rain. Temp falling. Down to 38.7F About .35" rain so far.

Light to moderate rain has started. Looks like the snow line is around 2300 feet in the Whites right now. Lost river cam has rain but the mountains just above are obscured in snow. I think the areas above 1500 feet in the Whites will do very well this evening. Edit. Looks like a mix at the base of Loon as of 2pm

37.4F Mixed rain/snow shower just moved through. Alex, your in an interesting spot for later. Probably your first good snowfall of the season.

It's interesting your talking about smartphones and cell service. I took that all for granted living in Metro Boston. Then moved up here. Along Rt 93 through NH great cell service. However much of rural NNE has no cell service. We drove from here to Bath Maine yesterday, 130 mile and I was trying to look at the models. Very hard to do unless we were passing through larger towns or the Portland area. It's the haves and have nots..

Yesterday we drove from our area to the coast of Maine north of Portland. 75% plus leafed out at least the whole way. A 3-7" heavy wet snow would cause quite a bit of damage right now. Here is a drone shot from this afternoon over my area. Newfound Lake on the left.. This is looking north towards Plymouth NH

Looks like a near miss for me from that developing Maine low. Never do good in wrap around moisture but the season is still very young. Trees are still mostly in leaf around here so some glop would create more problems than normal. Never know if I should be posting in the NNE threads or the main ones that get all the hits. Will try to get this thread more active but now many of us northerners.

Just catching up on AMWX. Wow, this thread got off track. Anyway looks like a close near miss for us in North Dendriteland. for some accumulating snow. If that Maine low could get going a bit further SW I would be in business. Trees still have about 75% of their leaves so even 4" of glop would give me some issues. Then there is this weekend. Couple of days ago it looked like a nice monster storm. Now the GFS/Euro have a 990 something slowly coming up the coast. 18Z GFS is the perfect track for me, elbow of the Cape. Probably a month later I would be in business. Carry on.....

34F light flurries this evening. We need to start that snow thread again so I can add in my .5" from the other morning. Gray AFD seems bullish on mountain accumulating snow on Tuesday. Then a big storm next weekend. Way out there but don't see a lot of cold air. Track could be anywhere, hook inland or off the coast. This mornings GFS had the storm at the elbow of the cape. That's a perfect track in winter for me. Nice to be back in an active pattern. From this point forward snow possibilities increase climo wise. Congrats Alex on the pup. Now we got to get your cam going, I never know what is happening in the Whites.

You definitely live in a Sweet Spot that's for sure. Like all the pictures of your pup still remember him bounding in the snow when you first got him.

Too bad there's no real cold air up here for this potential bomb. Elbow of Cape 975mb on 12z gifs perfect track for me.

I'm taking one day at a time. So many big possibilities late next week. Closer to home wonder what my might be on this next batch of moisture later tonight. GFS shows it now getting as far as me. Euro in 30 minutes. Will be fun to start watching.

Hum, the 12Z GFS getting the precip far enough north to perhaps give us a dusting later tonight. Something to watch for Lakes Region

Lava, I just went back through this thread to read all your posts. Hum... I think the landscape guys are negligent to some degree. You live in Raymond Maine. IMO your pretty darn far north for hydroseeding on Oct 6th. First the guy said he was sick for a week. Then they didn't spread the loam because they said it was too wet. If you had started 2 weeks earlier you would have been much better off. Your grass will probably germinate but not to the point that runoff channels will not form over the next 5 months till growing season starts again. That is what happened to me. Now its Oct 18th and looking forward temps sure don't look very warm. Growing hours become short. If you don't have a guarantee in your paperwork maybe you should talk to the landscape company and if you pay them in full and the lawn does not take they at least come back in May and try again. Get that in writing. The main part of the project was the loam. Hydroseeding that area can't cost too much. Make them come back if necessary. Good Luck...

37F up here on the hill at 1pm. Snow squall came through just before dawn and whitened everything up. Snow remains in the shade. Didn't bother walking back in the house to pull out the measuring stick but maybe 1/2 to 3/4"?

PF, nice to see the snow...I had a graupel shower around 530pm with temp at 44F. Then cleared up this evening. Rain showers then moved back in. Went to moderate snow for 5 minutes or so at 36F with gusty winds to 34mph. 1030pm with flurries in the air. I'm sure a wide area of NNE had the first flakes of the season tonight.

1030pm Graupel shower earlier dusted the ground. Then cleared out. Rain showers moved in around 930am and turned to moderate snow squall wind gusting to 34mph. Now just light snow. First snow of the season.

45.4F and moderate graupel shower coming through. One neighbor calls and says its snowing. Next neighbor calls and says its hailing. One thing for sure the pellets are large and making a racket. Perhaps this evening as the column cools off we will have the first snow showers of the season up here in the NH Lakes Region.

Looks like the first flakes here in the foothills of the Whites will fall early this evening.

Our lawn is lush and green right now. Did the final mow yesterday. We have so few trees around the house that no leave cleanup. The few trees we have, ash out back and horse chestnut and red maple out front are now bare. Just as we finished the mow with our 52" zero turn ride tractor it blew a tire as we were bring it in for the winter, perfect timing... Drone shot....

Around 40F all morning with light rain. Meanwhile 1500 feet away it was snowing. (Above me). Cat paw season has begun up here. Hey, that would be a good name for a handle AMWX. Only us weenies would know the significance.

Things were getting very colorful yesterday. Probably approaching 75% and perhaps 3 days away from a stunning peak. Then today Michael's wind put an end to that. A huge amount of leaves came down today in gusty winds. Mostly maples while the oaks are just starting to turn. Some years the weather cooperates some years not. I'm guessing south of my area of Central NH is okay since most trees are just starting to change. Without major wind over the next week that area will be able to reach a very colorful peak..

Tamarack Im 12.23" since July 1.

1.06" brings me up to 1.73" for the month and 16.77" since April 25th when the heavy winter rain/snow turned off. Over next 10 days perhaps another .25". So that would bring me to about 17" for the past 6 months. Looking at the AHPS maps Im about 75% of normal precip. Foliage is at about 75%. Peak should be within a few days.
