Must've been some decent band in the upper CT Valley too... radar dead zone but pretty impressive totals right in the upper valley for spots that usually aren't that snowy relative to the rest. 7-10" zone right along the VT/NH border.

7” just north of Lake Winni and Sandwich, NH. Did not have the most accums being so far north.

Good skiing.

6” today at 1500ft. Tapering off.

Almost 5”.

There’s nothing stopping cold coming down the Champlain Valley. BTV does flash freezes better than almost anyone… because it also gets warm on the south flow ahead of fronts. I think that side does it much better than here east of the Spine. Then add in some upslope snow squalls as the front hits the terrain… some of the worst short term road conditions imaginable.

Mid-level magic haha. Little fronto band popped up and sat for a bit. Was snowing 1”/hr for a couple hours there.

3” at the mountain, snowing hard.

9.7F currently. 10F at MVL. It’s mid-winter outside, snow depth is limited at home but 3” of settled powder covering the grass helps with the aesthetics. Higher elevations see snow depth escalate rapidly.

I find the mesoscale stuff in the northern mountains to be the most interesting type of weather. The atmosphere is fluid and Thursday is like watching a shallow ocean wave move over rocks, from NW to SE across the region… the areas with the most churn as the ripple moves through should see the best results in the northeast (the northern terrain).

You have to feel fairly confident from SW NH to Dendrite to Dryslot.

I missed that too, thanks. I honestly am more interested in that arctic front on Thursday. There’s something aesthetically pleasing about snow squalls and wind ahead of an arctic airmass. The SW flow out of the Great Lakes region pools moisture ahead of these FROPAs, then the front drags it over the terrain before drying out again. Looks like a decent early season arctic boundary. That FROPA means business.

The bottom is falling out up here as soon as the sun went down. Feels like it’ll be single digits in like two hours. 19/8 and cratering. I was thinking a nice cold night could help the battle zones.
