  1. Looks like the deform band is moving a bit east of here. That narrow higher reflectivity band was just ripping snow. You should be getting into that.
  2. Ha! I didn't even think of that. MVL was 57F for a high around 1pm! Now paste job.
  3. My wife is livid. My backyard now. Increasing rapidly. This is wild. What an over-performer on May 11th. Just pounding snow.
  4. Any thread where Wiz can have a hail orgasm and we can do snow gasm... good stuff.
  5. Look at the size of these things landing on my dog. Just clumps of flakes up to 1"+ in diameter.
  6. West side is getting destroyed. Jericho, Vermont
  7. This is insane. We are starting to take on accumulation at home now. Downloading some photos of the flakes. I measured some over 1.5" in diameter. Nice banding over the RT 100 corridor here.
  8. I found out they are on the Winter version of the Sugarbush App. These have to be the biggest flakes I've seen in a very long time.
  9. This is wild. It is ripping huge wet flakes the size of saucers.
  10. Still not warm. VTZ003-004-006>008-016>018-120100- Orleans-Essex-Lamoille-Caledonia-Washington-Eastern Franklin- Eastern Chittenden-Eastern Addison- Including the cities of Newport, Island Pond, Johnson, Stowe, St. Johnsbury, Montpelier, Enosburg Falls, Richford, Underhill, Bristol, and Ripton 609 PM EDT Mon May 11 2020 ...A period of heavy wet snowfall is expected this evening... Surface observations and web cams show rain has changed to a heavy wet snowfall across the western slopes into parts of central and northern Vermont, mainly above 1000 feet. A quick dusting to 3 inches is possible, which will cause localized areas of slick travel and the potential for a few isolated power outages, especially across the higher elevations. The accumulating snowfall should taper off by 9 PM this evening. Flipped to wet snow at 750ft now. Photo from above 1,500ft.
  11. Just had to take a little drive. We are getting catpaws down at 750ft but above 1,500ft it is absolutely nuking snow.
  12. Pretty cool radar signature. Low level inflow with like a mini warm conveyor belt lifting north and cold conveyor belt in the Champlain Valley? Is that what I'm seeing? The mountains up here are going to rip for a bit here. Could put down a fast several inches above 2,500ft. Bright banding is collapsing into the BTV radar site too, snow levels might be getting down decently low.
  13. Yeah I think they all are north of Killington. Just can't see it, ha. Sugarbush took down their upper mountain cams after the last storm. Even snowing at the Bolton base pretty hard, just starting to stick. Those folks who live up there at 2kft get another measurable snowfall, ha. White ridgelines in the morning.
  14. No? Already dumping on the Bolton cam. Look at the size of those flakes. Absolutely dumping up there, looks like an inch on the haul rope already.
  15. Nothing exciting up here... just cold rain in the 40s. Awful afternoon. Bright banding on the BTV radar with snow levels around 3,000ft. Looks like the Adirondacks are going over to snow, too. Probably some fresh white on the summits and ridges tomorrow morning.
  16. Yeah and without a lot of vegetation we can get warm fast this time of year. Would welcome a nice 60s and 70s temperature SW flow type pattern.
  17. Today felt worse than yesterday. At least yesterday was interesting with squalls. Today has just been cloudy, very windy and 40s for temps.
  18. Just hit 45F here, snow showers tapered off and some breaks of sun coming through. I’d wager this morning was the last time I’ll see legit flakes flying out my living room until October. Crazy how we all saw the last snow at the same time, all the way to Long Island.
  19. Myself and Andre Blais are the ones that usually get them their “alternative way” of measurements but with uphill closed we aren’t risking jobs for that. We have a network of folks who aren’t following the rules that we try to get some photos from and pass along. I’ve been hiking alternative lower elevation trails and roads.
  20. Still been seeing snow showers and persistent flurries the past couple hours. Crazy to keep having flakes flying. There was a fresh trace of white on the ground this morning that's now gone. Maybe a quarter inch. These light snow showers and flurries should taper off at some point, ha.
  21. You are in a snowy spot man. I visit your type of climate almost every day but I don't live in it. The local mesoscale differences even within towns around NNE is pretty nuts, you are in the "snowier" inhabited zone. Good moisture from better low development the further east you get, and a blocked flow given the tilting in the atmosphere, this was a great set-up for you tucked in on that NW slope of the Presidential Range.
  22. Fukkin' May and there's a coating of the snow on the ground there... I don't know the climo as much down there but I have to think these types of snow squalls are on a pretty decent return time.
  23. We knew this air mass wouldn't be denied. Squalls all over the place.
