That’s nice.

4” at base snow plot.

3” so far at all elevations from town to upper mountain. Really no change with elevation it seems.

Will’s got me beat. I don’t think in two decades I’ve ever seen Will post from a state of anger or despair. Dendrite too. I do remember losing it in January 2014 though… more inches of rain than snow while Philly is under their 6th winter storm warning…and if I hear Leon Lett, I might have flashbacks.

Ha, I’m like that too. Some might say overly optimistic and can find a positive in falling face down into dog shit (is that corn?). I’ve been told it would be better if I got more upset… sports, weather, life, etc.

I will say over the years when DIT gets down, he doesn’t stay down for long.

The woe is me cycle can be incredibly hard for some people to get out of… and draining for all around too.

Only 6 other years (out of 140) since 1884 have had 3 days with below 0F temps in Burlington, VT by 12/9. The last time was 36 years ago in 1989. That seems moderately impressive.

What? This? I went looking expecting like 80F and 6” of rain.

Yesterday's daily mean temperature at MVL was -1F . -27 daily departure. -12.4 on the month.

-18.2F. This is absurd for 12/9. Like 35+ degrees below normal. Relative to normal its like an 18F low in mid-July. SLK, HIE, BML all at least -20F or lower.

4” overnight, 5” measured in 24 hours… fellow reporter MT checking Barnes Camp stake in the base area pre-dawn while VTRANS plows.

-13F at 10pm. Teens all the way down to the south coast. Region-wide well-below normal night. Sorry for the cold spam, but it’s noteworthy for the time of year.

Radiational cooling or not, it has been a bit since we’ve seen these type of departures sustained over a couple weeks. At any time of year. The low level air masses have been legit. Today was brutal cold at the mountain, sub zero with strong wind.

It’s the trade off to like an unnecessary cool 42F night in the summer, while south of the Pike is enjoying 60 dews.
