Lol wtf is that. Love the turd emoji.
-
A Jan 12, 2011 would be nice. Kev can have his two feet if I can get a foot .
-
Upslope and ocean effect.
-
Yeah for sure. 200-250 ideal for everyone. We’ve been so close to big snows. Like 1.5 hour drive north has been buried in many of these while we get mixed slop.
-
Yeah the step down hopefully looks like the 12z GFS parade. The heavy snow amounts have been just north of the St Lawrence many of these storms. We get it to step down and it looks like this… just take the past two months and move it 150 miles south, ha.

Weymouth tickle.
-
18z EURO had a large area of light snows.
-
Definitely feeling like a win after bracing for 7-10 days of grass. We keep finding ways in a shitty winter to keep the grass covered, some snowbanks, etc.
-
Yeah definitely more snowpack than before the system. Down here in the valley at 750ft there’s 3-4” of absolute concrete now. It’s not deep winter but this stuff has like 1”+ water now frozen in it for 3-4”. It’s gonna stick around. Its a very November vibe after a mixed event with dense net gain. Not deep winter, but it’s winter.
-
Snowing at Stowe, changed around 10:45am. Seemed early.
-
I think it’s a net gain. 3-4” of slush at the mountain. Lot of QPF. Roads were terrible in town, evergreens were hanging low. Like a couple inches of waterlogged grease.
-
Back over to heavy wet aggregates. MVL back to 1/2sm moderate snow from sleet. Tenacious cold wedged in east of Greens.
-
Mansfield at 24F at 4000ft and MWN is 19F at 6000ft. There’s still some cold up there.
-
Biding our time here on the east side of the Spine. 30-31F and heavy IP. Can see the mid-30s and rain streaming up the west slopes and Champlain Valley.
-
Nice. Rains to Maines.
-
It was snowing hard there when it started back up but now it’s pounding rock candy sleet. It’s like aggregates of sleet. Wintry outside with the new snow and sleet, dense new covering.
-
Got about 2” today. Now something other than snow. Car said 31F at home.
-
Dude! I’m pulling for this. That’s awesome.
-
Half inch or so this morning. 20F at Mtn Ops Center.
-
I had a graphic years ago showing the acreage and aerial extent of the “snow zone” vs a “rain zone” on a storm cutting to the Lakes. Like 1/3rd of the US would see rain from it, but like 1/150th of the US would see decent snow from that same system. Take numbers with grain of salt but just showed how hitting the “snow zone” was so hard to thread the needle while everyone east of Mississippi would see rain from the system.
-
Lol I sort of laugh though Wolfie. You give him everything you said he was looking for. He went fishing and caught a wolf. Not sure if 1717 can find a meme for that though.
-
The town of Mammoth Lakes had like 70” in 48 hours. That stuff is insane.
-
I was watching snow melt on pavement in the sun today despite mid-20s and thought of Nape Season.
-
Persistence is the easy forecast at this point. Everyone knows it. The real skill though is always the one who can figure out when to break from persistence.
-
Oh I thought you were going to Sunday River. The big mountains will know how to get it serviceable. I would’ve trusted SR’s snow surfaces team. Cranmore I have no idea. That might be a wait and see.
