    We could work with that.

    Stowe didn’t open till 12/3 last year, so absolutely. Pretty busy this weekend! And yeah, I undersold this one too lol. Models weren’t really exciting south of Jay but I was surprised it got as far south as Mansfield. Crazy sharp drop off south of here though.

    Pretty big change from 00z. We watch.

    Good stuff today. Patrol opened the Front back up. Photo from a friend.

    9" measured on elevated surfaces within 24 hours is a solid snowfall (1-1.5" before the flip). Closing in on a half inch per hour average over an entire calendar day. That's a good shot of snow for the northern Greens as the trough moves through.
  6. powderfreak
    That makes total sense too... probably a tenth of an inch of liquid or so ahead of Mansfield. With these good ratios, 2-3" storm total increase makes sense. Say a 9" vs 12" event. This was 5pm at 1,500ft.

    Agreed. The default is certainly more progressive... it has to work to amplify, like all systems do. It's why we know the Messenger ticks are a thing. It's probably a more SNE/CNE event rather than NNE.

    Still cranking away. Storm total is what's on the stack plus 1-1.5" that was there between 5-6am before the board flipped. The base area probably is only an inch behind or so.

    Blizzard conditions at times this evening.

    Ha it was in jest as a joke. Personally, I want it over like metro-west of BOS, lol. I feel like it’s my duty as a white walker north of the wall for a comment here and there… but in reality it is nice to see enthusiasm and hope again on the forum. It feels a bit like the old days on here for the past 48 hours or so.

    That’s one helluva band right through ALB airport area.
  12. powderfreak
    Ugh.

    Yup, it was 3” in 24 when I posted that. Two hours later it’s 5”. Really not much difference between 1,500ft and 3,000+ feet. 1” last night and 4” since 6am.
  14. powderfreak
    4” overnight plus today up there? Must be a sweet powder day. Its been snowing for a couple hours (1”/hr) and about 2” new today after 1” overnight. This is accumulations since about 9-10am in the base area.
  15. powderfreak
    It must be, only does it during standard time. Unlikely to show feet of snow during daylight savings time.
  16. powderfreak
    I couldn’t resist . It was either that or post something about how that run is suppressed. I’ll go back to watching from a distance and come back on Sunday when it starts to unravel again.
  17. powderfreak
    Meh, need more amp than that.
  18. powderfreak
    We just don’t know. Could be lower.
  19. powderfreak
    180 hours out. Unlikely as modeled but the chances will be there as the seasonal baroclinic zone sags south in the means.
  20. powderfreak
    While we are into a thaw, today was an incredible day. 30-40 degrees on the hill, chalky packed powder up high, a bit of hero snow on the lower half. You know it’s going to change in 24 hours with rain arriving tonight, but today was about living in the moment. A fine November stretch… from 4,000ft to 1,500ft has been beefed up so far.

    That is a crazy sequence of events in the final week to Christmas. Is it better to have loved and lost, than not have at all? This was 2015 Stowe/Mansfield on Christmas Day. Only Xmas Day since 1954 with no snow on the ground at the Co-Op stake. This November reached a higher snow depth than was seen at any point during that 2015-16 winter.
  22. powderfreak
    Doesn’t he post pics of a Christmas tree farm? Someone on here does. Or they just like rows of 3-7 foot tall trees in their yard.
  23. powderfreak
    Yeah we can take the 36 hour thaws but need to avoid a 72-hr bloodbath with 1”+ rain.
  24. powderfreak
    Hard to hate the start so far too. Even low elevation woods are ok… we’ll see in a couple days though, haha.
  25. powderfreak
    Should help preserve the snowpack a bit more?
