It can. I’m seeing it on Mansfield. 300 verts is enough to go from 0” to 3”. It’s literally an inch per 100ft on the snow line. Fukkin winter is nice to see.
-
LOL that's awesome.
-
Please tell me you told your wife to go drive around and take photos while you are in Maryland.

Yeah I think the cooling going west to east was a big part of it, we see it here too where the CAA can get held up in the mountains. It looked like when it did cool it did it very quickly in NE VT and NW NH. But models also had an area of -3C at 850 wanting to develop there in the upper CT Valley. I think that NW quad of the precip shield was just ever so slightly more conductive to snowing at lower elevations. Heck even Lyndonville pit and KCDA were 33/32 and snowing this morning.
-
Places in NEK VT not on west slopes doing well though too, I wonder if there was just a pocket of colder profiles just by half a degree or degree C lower in that upper CT River Valley.
-
Ha! That’s awesome. The NE corner of VT into adjacent Coos County in NH seemed to flip fastest and really rake. That far Upper CT river valley area. Missed that second batch back this way. Mountain is white above 3000ft from the first round yesterday, but missed the second round a county to the east.
-
That’s awesome. On the snow hunt.
-
I can feel that. It may get made up quickly though.
-
Hey exact same here. But you’ve got another heavy wave coming. Hoping we can be clipped by that round. Still, should be near a 7” total since the last few days of September. Been a wet 20 days. Good to see everyone getting wet. Nice to not hear about Stein anymore, ha.
-
That’s an awesome view right now. Could watch that live for a while. Stratton summit lodge at 3,830ft, basically 4K. I think S.VT elevations will do better than N.VT elevations foot for foot because of the increased moisture. The second wave should hit them harder for sure on that SSW to NNE flow trajectory. Dynamic cooling in the south will offset any difference from temps in the north.

Cleaner shot from the troops on the mountain looking for snow.
-
Found some proof from a Lyndon State student who also is a lift operator here... but they are camping out looking for snow.
-
Yeah that’s what I think too. Looking at bright banding ring and height of it, I think the snow level around here has been 3500ft the past hour. Picnic tables could be seeing snow right now. That’s right in line with when guidance had 0C 850mb move through here around 6pm.
-
I think we’d all agree anything less than this is a failure.
-
Mitch's area in S.VT looks like it might do some accumulating snow, they probably have one of the better shots in Vermont at this point. Large area of 2,000ft elevation, and precip lingers there after thicknesses lower enough. Could see Mitchy with a coating to 2" tomorrow morning.
-
Now that's a massive dumpster fire.
-
0.40” so far this morning. A wet day.
-
Love this setting. Great chilly, sheltered type of look with evening glow cranking on the uphill rise.
-
That’s the look here, just a bit above normal and good precipitation. Comfy winter recreation temps and active.
-
Sounds like winter, one gives 18” one gives 8”. Actual is probably in the middle.
-
Another good short term QPF battle between ECMWF and GFS... some decent differences in SNE between the two models.
-
73F and sunny but gusting 30+ out of the south.
-
I agree. Those type of comedies are never as good as the first one. They hit, they are hilarious then you move on. Super Troopers didn’t need a second one either. So many funny cult comedies are tried again and just can’t hit the ridiculousness of the first one...when you walk out of a theater like “I have no idea what I just watched but it was pretty damn funny.”
-
Yeah gonna need that sketch. Can even find where I live along the river between town and mountain, ha.
-
Yeah like 6z run this morning went nuts with snow. I still even with that exact QPF and lift doubt that would’ve played out like that. Just a bit too snow happy on the maps. I still think it would’ve been much more elevation dependent than the crass snow progs look. The 12km NAM doesn’t see elevation lol. Even verbatim that outlook would be peaks white, mid-slope/valleys wet. Time for some picnic table toppers.
