    It is dumping outside right now. Quite a nice upslope band of moderate to heavy snow over the Spine. Must be getting some decent downwind drift too as it’s snowing furiously in town. The atmospheric speed bump at work.

    Glad to see SNE getting in on the snow squall action. Didn't have to go far to find "real" winter.... about 500ft above my house at 1,200-1,300ft there was about 3.5" of heavy dense snow. The squalls have been pretty consistent all day long, move in and out fast but can get some good pulses of moderate to heavy snow at times. And then this is a squall rolling through down in the lower elevations around 800ft.

    This is a pretty damn good snow shower... whitening the evergreens back up at home. Great snow growth, not aggregates though. Like high ratio fluff if it was cold enough, lol. Looks like there's another one building off to the NW and just tracking down RT 108 here.

    Still snowing nicely. These upslope snow showers just keep forming and riding overhead. Wintry appeal type day.

    Mid-30s. Still getting periods of under 2sm -SN at times at the ASOS. Must be steep lapse rates as the flakes falling aren’t wet. It’s like fluffy flakes falling at 35-36F on my thermometer.

    Dog enjoys what may be the last accums here in the valley...

    Still snowing but warm temps seem to be melting it back quickly now.

    WINDEX events will be 3-6” lol. Westerly FROPA, crushed.

    Looks like the yard faces south which is key in NNE for natural light/heat. You’ll lose snowpack with that open south aspect (could be bare now, with two feet in north facing properties) but that can’t be understated in getting some solar heat help through the picture windows. Like on Mansfield and Spruce, both got similar snowfall but the south facing aspects are bare/patchy while northeast aspect has two feet at the same elevation.

    Yeah you need to get into a cluster of hills so you can’t downslope from any direction. I’d be surprised if SE/S isnt a downslope aspect though, especially those tilted lows with strong SE low level flow under a broader SW flow aloft. The MWN zone is still a 4kft drop to 1500ft. Alex is at 1500ft and sees it sometimes. It’s the “windy -SN” flow.

    Yeah that house looks like its worth it in NH.... don't have to tear down any trailers on the property to build or anything, ha.

    That same house in Stowe with a view and property like that would be millions. Seems like a steal of a deal for that, haha.
  13. powderfreak
    Yeah not hard to find that property online... But holy f*ck that looks sweet. Well done Phin. That's the American dream right there.

    How does Alex fit in there? Looks like Randolph is a town to his NE? I had it wrong, I was confusing Randolph at first with Jackson. I thought he was SE of the mtns, not north of them.... that's a great spot. Must get some good NW flow snow in there.

    It's no Montgomery, VT but should do just great there for snow. You guys want out in the middle of nowhere... the Jay Peak area will do that.

    Man, we just missed here with 1-2". Two towns north had 4-6". Hyde Park, next town north of MVL, with 5.5"
  17. powderfreak
    Don't know but it didn't really happen on the hill. Heaviest was definitely north. 1,500ft only had 2-3". Meanwhile two towns north in Hyde Park, VT had 5.5" at a lower elevation. There must've been a very sharp gradient last night.

    Nice snowy morning over this way, dog loves chasing snowballs in the backyard. Upslope flow bringing persistent steady light snow.

    Hearing a good 8-10" along RT 242 heading up to Jay Peak. Westfield CoCoRAHS came in with 6.0" and Newport 5.5"... not bad totals for lower elevations.
  20. powderfreak
    Interesting, yeah there was about an inch when I woke up and it's still been snowing but I don't think the depth is increasing that much. I'll probably check again at noon.

    This is impressive in size. That cold conveyor belt is going to rake a large portion of the state of Maine as that low parallels the coast.
  22. powderfreak
    The gold standard for measuring snow on for sure. Looks nice, I’m definitely jelly this evening.

    Bangor looks like they are in for a fun night.

    A night of fighting over the external battery charger for the cell phones.

    IZG with 0.53” water in the past 4 hours since switching to snow. Thats a pretty good QPF dump.
