Just keep the snow coming. 11pm. Still coming down on RT 108 in Stowe.

Song has been a big hit since summer. The male struggle to provide for his family is a big burden for many. Why don’t your links imbed? About as wintry in that video as the past couple weeks.

Couldn’t imagine a more picturesque snow. It’s just stacked on every little twig. For something 100% unexpected, it’s an interesting event. Model probability had to be 1-5% of the seen snow amounts.

There’s going to be 8” at some parts of RT 108 in Stowe and 1” a mile or two north/south of it .

Just keeps dumping snow. Standing wave going on almost 24 hours now. What a weird event.

It is still snowing.

Oh yeah there was some freezing mist and drizzle. Last night my car was coating in like two-tenths of ice. I didn’t notice a ton of it today. But just super weird localized event. And it wasn’t like fake fluff. It was dense cake.

lol 6” caking snow at Topnotch.

Barely snowing at the hill. If you are familiar with Mountain Road... it's from Matterhorn downhill into town.

Negative. Half inch at 1500ft. 6" at 800ft, ha. Its more of a latitude thing than a elevation. It's dumping like 2-3 miles SE of the summit.

It’s still crushing in the zone. My wife reports heavy snow at Topnotch. That zone has to be over 6” now in the standing wave on RT 108.

Hey now, up to 4-5”, ha. Still snowing in town.

I've only seen these standing waves over town from Mansfield a few times, but this one has gone for like 8 hours of 1/2" per hour snow. It's super weird... and it's not just high ratio snow. It's kind of wet. Also, other parts of Stowe have had just a dusting like Nebraska Valley. This is literally just on RT 108/Mountain Road. Tourists/visitors are going to be confused as hell... waking up to 3-5" of paste at all the lodging properties along the road... only to find it didn't really snow at the mountain.

Town getting smoked while mountain gets nothing. 3-5” along the Mountain Road from standing wave but as soon as you go up in elevation towards the ski area it disappears. The tourists are going to go bonkers. Like how the hell do you explain mountain topography where there’s 5” at Edson Hill and RT 108 intersection but half an inch at the base of the mountain. I had 3” and still snowing at home when I left.

3” overnight. God this looks so much better than endless April.

What a nice little upslope surprise. 2-3” out there pasting everything. Winter is back. This is a standing wave off Mansfield that’s been going for like 6 hours.

We didn’t get anything down here at the valley bottom (750ft) from the synoptic earlier… but orographic snow showers are whitening it up in the village this evening. Sort of a standing wave downstream of Mansfield right now, so hope it keeps up with some residence time.

My car was completely coated in ice this evening leaving the mountain. Like enough that you aren’t scraping it… legit freezing rain and pixie dust. Half inch of snow and then ice. Exactly what the mountain needed, an evening of sheet drizzle at 26F.

It’s a start.

Been a rough go of it since the major flooding 10 days ago now. No end-of-the-day, parking-lot, snowy vibes photos even. Just no winter vibes. We feel lucky for the multi-week stretch of paste jobs seen earlier in the season.

Thats the month! More inches of rain than snow but with significant below normal departures during coldest month of year.

Feel like Nittany was a BTV met at some point. But agreed, like the logical and articulated points put forth.

That product was awesome. No pretty colors. All black and white. But if the source region was popping -negative values, you knew a cold stretch was coming.

Irate month. Just smashing household items. Leon can kiss my ass lol.

Thats when you know it’s not cold… cold and W/NW flow means lake effect and upslope. Warm won’t get that done.
