Yeah it's not shocking in the least. Late season cold pool overhead, some mountain snows, chilly/breezy weather elsewhere. I don't think anyone has been "shocked" ha.

Damn! Pasted. That's a healthy stack on that truck.

It’s a brush attachment on a tractor. Snow sweeper.

Looks like spring out here. The wind is absolutely honking through the plaza. Easy gusts to 40mph, blowing snow, and a temp of 30F. Could be any day from this last winter. Also had to post for ORH/Will... the heated pavers have been turned off for the season .

If this was in February all of the Maine crowd in here would be getting crushed, along with better ratios in N.NH where it's snowing now. @dryslot would've gotten smoked this evening based on the last several hours of radar loops.

Big elevational gradient this time of year. Steady snows this evening in the higher ground. Once temps dipped to 31-29F this evening the snowfall accumulation at that higher 1,500ft level took off. Radar has been pinwheeling moisture into you and the BW crew. Add in NW low level flow lift under the radar beam the further west you go on the GYX scans... good stuff for you, Alex and Diane. Probably better flake size too with colder mid-level lift occurring over there. Colder temps are higher in the atmosphere, so getting into that larger scale synoptic lift where temps are colder has probably helped. Fun late season event.

As I wrote in NNE, had dinner at the classic ski bar/restaurant "The Matterhorn" near the bottom of Harlow Hill up to the ski resort. Had to take 3-5 minute weenie drive up there on the way home. Last light just before 8pm. Photo has been edited for brightening and looks noisy due to the low light. We took a walk on the Barnes Camp boardwalk and enjoyed winter weather. 29F, windy, and snowing sideways. Small flakes, needles and bullets. Dense QPF-rich stuff. About 2" of wet frozen sand, but drifting around from very strong winds. Never know when it'll be the last snow.

Shorts on the deck with a drink in hand?

Wife and I were at the Matterhorn for dinner and since it's close to the base of the ski area, I of course had to go the 2-3 miles up the road to see what was going on. It's been snowing even down in the valley since like 3pm but hasn't stuck down at 750ft. You start to see some accumulation around 1,000ft on this side of the mountain whereas the west slope has much lower accumulation down to 500ft or lower like @Froude posted. Anyway, up at 1,500ft Barnes Camp boardwalk we took a snowy evening walk to enjoy the wind/snow/cold. Felt like mid-winter. Car said 29F. Found ~2" on the ground in that area. Roads were a mess above 1,300ft but only because it was so incredibly greasy. Only like a half inch of slush on the roadway but had very little control as the sub-32F temps finally were icing the road up. No one around though so could stop in the middle of the state highway and take photos and then drive down the middle of the road, ha. All in all, dinner at the Matterhorn and a weenie drive home. Fun evening.

Radar looks great over there in Coos County with stuff rotating into NNH from Maine. Couldn't get this in January though, ha.

Wearing shorts outside while still paying for heat inside sounds more like a calendar date flip than a warm/cold flip, no? I’m with you on wearing shorts as many days as possible but definitely won’t force it if it’s 48-52F all day.

Full on winter up at 1500ft. Everything is white…1/4 mile vis. High wind. 30.5F.

It is pounding snow now outside the office. High wind and visibility is 1/4-1/2sm. Turning white in the past hour.

Flowers don’t stand a chance. Wind flattened them and now snow will freeze them.

You hate to see it.

Yeah we flipped to snow around 10am in the Stowe base area at 1,500ft and it's been snow since but nothing is sticking. Small flakes on very strong winds. I'd bet we are pushing 40mph gusts in the base area at times. Water trying to drip off the roof top is actually defying gravity and blowing back up the roof due to the wind, ha. Lookout Snow Cam is closing in on 2". I think it's getting hammered by wind up there so accumulations are slow. https://player.timecam.tv/express/index.html?C=D786BEJG4F5A

Haha that ain’t happening. We are just treading on that line of “if it’s going to be cold and wet it might as well try to snow.”

It’ll be white here tomorrow morning.

Over to snow now here in the base area at 1,500ft. Not going to stick at these temps now but it will later. But it's snowing, ha.

38F and pouring rain at 1,500ft. Snow level seems to be around 2500-3000ft. Already a quick inch at 3,100ft snow board. Lovely cold squally weather.

Won't lie, ULL overhead is usually good for the mountains with the upslope flow creating the low level convergence under the upper level lift. Healthy cold pool moving directly overhood from WNW to ESE. Convective graupel is likely.

This is a solid signal from the 12z EURO. A 6-hour panel with greater than 0.30" QPF over the Spine and temps of -2C at 925. Has it ending as snow even at MVL.

What a day down there. 50-52F with lower visibility mist and ceilings at 400 feet all afternoon. This is how one draws up spring weather.

Nice man. I like the plain white subway tiles. We did ours a few years ago to a more tan color but if I did it again I’d go white backsplash.

Do you really want to die on this hill that it’s a beautiful spring week? lol.
