    It’s still snowing pretty hard at the mountain. Just total fluff.

    Good stuff out there this morning on Mansfield!

    Town looks absolutely beautiful. Just ripping big fluffy flakes. I had another 2.25" overnight. Total of 4" in two 12 hour periods but more like 3.5" on the ground with settling. Standing wave right down Mountain Road with the steadiest snow in the village rather than the mountain oddly enough. Pretty cool when we get these standing waves off Mansfield's Chin. Just fluffing straight down in town. Drive up the road was beautiful with fluff on every little twig it seemed like.

    The NW flow fluffed us up last night. Looked beautiful driving through town. Event total of ~4" after 2.25" of absolute dust overnight.

    This new stuff will evaporate quickly when it warms up, but I will say there’s been at least some snow cover for many of us the past couple weeks. The sales team at Snow.Inc has had auto-replenish set to on with several light events that keep the ground white.

    Nice man, that stoke is the winter vibe this time of year.
  7. powderfreak
    Nice! Hometown snow.

    Those Smart Homes can do anything.

    It’s true, ha. But the cold season also has larger standard deviations for temps than the warm season. More likely to see huge departures in cold season.

    1.75” here at 6:30. Moon starting to show.

    Did measure and it was a bit less than my eyeball test. 1.75” here. Thought it was a solid two or two and a quarter but nope, that’s why we measure .

    We are probably nearing 2”. Will measure on the elevated board closer to 00z. It’s total fluff. A 15mph breeze would completely clean the SUV off.

    Yeah just really picked up. About an inch of fluff on wife’s car at home. This is the fluff that you can see the grass “through” it here lol.

    -SN setting the holiday mood while running holiday errands in Stowe Village.

    About a half inch of the lightest falling snow ever. I think the sun has been out all morning too. Classic dim sun -SN.

    Ha I thought the same thing. You to Tamarack.

    You can see the model 2m temps trying to pick out cold pockets and warmth mixing in later next week with CAD pockets. Pretty cool.

    I think we’ll get a couple days that could go more. It looks pretty mild anytime it mixes out. Relative to normal it’s pretty warm. But normal is lower up here, ha.

    We had a dusting last night that evaporated at home. Some ice and random small plow piles all that are left around town. Hope to see an inch or two to whiten things up in the next 36 hours. I think most see 1-3” in the NNE crew… chances for more in ME/NH to me given IVT potential.

    I agree, the science is unknown long term. We are adding “energy” or heat to the overall atmosphere. The question is how small a ripple rocks the boat. Current data is less dramatic than certain language.

    To me that sounds like an engineering problem… Mother Nature is giving the water either way, snow or rain. We are comfortable humans, maybe we need to adapt a bit. But if the water falls from the sky, no matter what form, that’s on us for not utilizing it properly.
  22. powderfreak
    Yeah, maybe if you miss a snowstorm by 0.5C you might wonder about 50 years ago. But this? Pilgrims would be chillin’ on the beach, happy to be warm. Looks like the real deal for a December “relaxation.”
  23. powderfreak
    It sounds dumb, but even that dusting to 1-2" after a rainer has a more wintry appeal than going rain to cold/dry/frozen ground. Frozen standing water is one thing, at least add a skiff coating of snow to the local fields to give a wintry feel.
  24. powderfreak
    How often do you get *this* many model runs showing an IVT signature? The location hasn’t been stable but the ingredients and presence of one somewhere has been there for many cycles. Like days of model runs, it’s not a new feature.
  25. powderfreak
    Very true. My vantage point and comments come from a mountain in NNE that will average colder than those spots further south. The crew in NVT, NNH, NWME will see it mitigated in actuals compared to spots like the Catskills, Poconos, Berkshires. There’s a big latitude difference there. Relative to normal it could be the same, but normals are colder up north… mild high/lows of 45/25 hit differently than south at 55/35 with regard to snow preservation at ski areas.
