  1. This morning in Mtn Ops “You know what this mountain needs right now? Some freezing rain.”
  2. 19F and raining in Stowe Village, ha. Light snow now at the mountain at 20F. 4,000ft is 31F.
  3. Impressed it went through ALB area and SW where the 'rents still live in the winter. The hometown had 3.0" just SW of the city. That's a pretty decent band of snow going from central to eastern NY and through parts of SW Mass, N CT, RI and Islands. Nice streak there on a line from upstate NY to the Islands.
  4. That’s awesome. After all of that the past 2-3 days to end up with a plowable snow is a helluva Christmas miracle. You hear any Woodstock/Union reports?
  5. This is insanity. Crested Butte, CO’s snow cam. This morning. And then 5 hours later. Still hammering.
  6. That’s the best one yet! Literally laughing picturing him bitting his screen after reading TauntonBlizz’s posts.
  7. Nice for DIT, those radar images are sweet. He couldn’t draw that up any better.
  8. Icy tuck. Cool mesoscale loop it’s got. Stable ZR zone while mid levels stay torchy.
  9. Mansfield Stake today... not ideal. It's been a rough start to the season for natural snow but I think it's mostly the rain events/thaws we've had so far. That one warm week really did a number on it though as some good momentum was building a couple weeks ago.
  10. I'm not going to lie, I thought the same thing but looked it up. Learn something new everyday. General Gau's chicken, often called General Tso's chicken, is chicken that's been battered and fried, then coated in a fragrant, orange-y ginger sauce that's spicy, tangy, sweet, and hot all at the same time.
  11. Looks icy on that run. P-type map looks icier than 2-m and 925mb but RT 2 area of Mass seems slick on Xmas.
  12. The 26th is starting to show up on the Euro now. GFS still much stronger.
  13. It’s so unlike any other model that it borders on bizarre even at this lead time.
  14. Some light snow has fired up, won’t amount to much as QPF progs are very light but nice to see flakes flying.
  15. Yeah I was thinking that’s a nice 1-2” fluffer moving through Mass on the GFS.
  16. Damn man, 90 homes! What an operation. That’s awesome. But yeah I’ve heard from some folks that the private schools have two weeks off while some public schools are like off Xmas Eve and then all next week… but parents are just taking kids out for this whole week anyway.
  17. Interesting on the GYX radar you can see what’s likely the snow line around Sunday River, right? Echoes go more smooth and lower reflectivity sort of on a Bartlett to Andover line. That higher reflectivity stuff must be mixed? Then also the weird cellular almost convective looking stuff further north.
  18. The suns out. Town is very busy with the double holiday week. Folks taking a week vacation before and a week vacation after Xmas. Stowe Area Association occupancy craters down again on Jan 2nd.
  19. There was a pretty cool standing wave event… I definitely remember that. A taste of the Green Mtns when grass was showing in one place but 4 miles away 5-8” fell. I remember Coventry posters with pics. Tolland too right? It was it just downwind of the hills? Maybe those are two different ones.
  20. And if it’s not going to snow it’s usually nicer with long daylight, ha. Not much to dislike.
  21. He lit the Xmas tree on fire and is now thinking about putting it out. Hasn’t quite decided.
  22. 2015 tried pretty hard on Xmas Eve. It was like 60F at the picnic tables.
