Damn, nice. Maybe 2.5-3” here? And started earlier up this way. 4” is a legit quick thump.

Surprisingly good snow growth so far. Somewhere between 1” and 2” so far and a nice looking band about to move in.

Snowing steadily, roads covered immediately.

Yeah that looks like a Hail Mary, more likely for a narrow zone on the Cape. But I love hoping those mesoscale things happen just for the oddity of it.

Scooter dong still there on HRRR.

It definitely doesn’t seem to bother you if it doesn’t snow, not nearly as much as people posting about how it bothers them .

HRRR dangling a dong over you. That 0.50” over Cape Ann would be fun.

Weak little wave put down 2.25” of Currier and Ives this evening. Nice unexpected little moose fart refresh. 18F

Yeah nice 2.25” of fluff stacked nicely on all the trees and even power lines. Looked festive driving home from Waterbury. It wants to snow this year.

Been snowing big fat fluffy flakes for a bit. Almost 2”? All air.

That run was a clipper parade. Your new spot will continue to clean up with us in NNE if we get energy every couple days coming in from the NW and plenty of cold. The difference from your area to the eastern Adirondacks is pretty stark in these types of patterns.

I think you'll do quite well too. Upslope looks a bit unblocked which should help drift your way on the backside.

Also, this high-res Canadian panel tomorrow night has me salivating. This would be a crushing from 2am to 8am... with 850mb temps falling to -12C, great snow growth, serious upslope moisture. This would be a pummeling for the ski areas. Curious how this clipper works out.

Nice little snowy evening for the holidays.

We take the herpes up this way.

Starting to think we might be able to pull warning amounts. Classic tide-in and tide-out type event. First SE flow then NW flow, dragging moisture over the northern mountains.

12z HRRR getting a look at the Tuesday night snows... I'm starting to think this could go fairly decent. Most models are putting around a half inch of QPF in the area of central/northern VT, with more along the Spine. It could be sneaky snowy heading into Wednesday AM.

Wxwatcher picked a great season to move to SLK. Cold and snow combo for the NW shelf of New England.

Nice squall line lined up with the mountain.

I figure some of you will appreciate the obsessive anal-retentive details we have snow reporting on Mansfield... Yesterday we had 1.75" or so that we called 2"... then it snowed a bit overnight... but was very windy and the grooming team thought several inches fell. The snow cam went off-line briefly around the time of the morning report and it was called 2" more overnight for a 24-hour total of 4". Snow cam came back and only had just over 3". Say 3.1" or 3.2". The early reports on the hill from skinners was 4-5". It actually looked good (photo from friend JA). However, once we got to High Road, we saw that was also a wind-blown 3" (barely, if you got level with the snowpack). The funny part is that folks on the hill thought at least 4" was a good number and were trying to talk us into it. However, the argument is if you have multiple source points saying 3".... maybe it is just 3". And we removed an inch from the snow report and Stowe seasonal total to reflect an accurate total, from 114" to 113" after considering the evidence. This hobby is like an exhibit in OCD, ha. The good news is the snow depth is still stout and only compacted about 7” at the 3,000ft level.

Nope haha, it’s just struck me as hilarious for some reason. Like here everyone is trying to get snow for Xmas and “nahh, I’ll pass on the Xmas eve whitening.” There might be too much salt. He could find a pile of shit to step in at August National.

Jesus Christ dude .

Yeah, Mansfield depth dropped a healthy 10" but really just the air came out of the fluff. Couple inches of new snow up there after the changeover. Snowpack looked fine leaving at 5pm with a coating at 1,500ft. Dropped down to 4th deepest depth for the date since 1954, ha. Nice to have a thaw result in "falling" to a still top-5 snow depth.

Tuesday into Wednesday could be a nice refresh. Euro has liked WxWatcher to here to you.

I think Henry is realizing it’s not super profitable to own sports teams. The value is tied to selling the team, not in operating it. That 2004 winning payroll was like the equivalent of $200mm payroll in today’s present dollars. He’s a businessman, not a competitor unfortunately. It definitely sucks.
