That’s fun though at that age. Always hope it’s a safe drive but if you are a snow/mtn fan, that experience is memorable.
-
Same here and I think we’ll make it here soon, then see if we can add anything tomorrow. The models had a pretty uniform precip shield that was all snow. Similar amounts should be found over a wide region, which is pretty cool for the forum.
-
Nice mid-winter refresh.
-
I’ve thought those big 10+ numbers were on the high side. I went 5-8” for the ski areas (best bet IMO for covering the majority of terrain. Of course could be locally higher at the summits and snow pockets but I think 5-8” was a good range of where this ends up for the majority of terrain.
-
HRRR still with some good QPF after 8pm into tomorrow afternoon (about an hour old). Hope it has a clue.
-
Nice man, congrats.
-
This is nuts. Whiteout. We might have just gotten 2” in like 40 minutes up here. The yellows just exploded over Stowe (north of the 89 marker on this radar.
-
Heavy graupel. These are huge rimed balls.
-
Some real good bursts, almost convective or something how fast the pulses race through.
-
SWFE style. It seems to take a real special SWFE to get widespread decent ratios.
-
Nice stuff. 9F and steady light to at times pushing moderate snow up here at the ski area. Seems like 1.5-2” so far.
-
Boom right off the bat... this is some heavy snow banding. Great snow growth.
-
I could see 5-8” up in this neck of the woods once you tally in all the residual terrain light snow on Sunday. Might be tough to shut off the terrain snow for a bit. I’m thinking 3-5” initial burst and 2-3” fluffer nutter topping from -SN most of Sunday. Its frigid at -6F and highs only expected in the teens...I’m getting on the train of slightly higher ratios than climo for SWFE.
-
It's -11F here... letting the dog out for the last time for the night. She doesn't linger outside long in the negative teens. HIE was -16F at 9pm...wow. It's f'in cold out there.
-
There's that NAM run we were waiting for...
-
It’s the middle of the winter, any synoptic snow should be greeted with open arms.
-
What a widespread system.... compared to some compact ones, this has a huge swath of snow.
-
Good event region wide in NNE it seems...cool
-
I bet they can for sure. There's another 2" of just absolute fluff here since 4pm....up at 7.5" here and the narrow band that has been crushing Mansfield this evening is moving back north.
-
Dude, Mansfield is getting croaked right now. This narrow band has just been smoking the mountain and even down into town.
-
It’s snowing pretty hard right now. Full fat fluffy dendrites as the colder air starts to pour in. Upslope response is getting going.
-
Looks like BTV has a snow depth of 7”, so they got at least that much.
-
Just shy of a half a foot at home but still snowing and some good squalls in bound. We’ll get 6+ in a bit.
-
Yeah I’m on the 3-5” train up here... looks like a quick burst of like a third of an inch of QPF then dry slot. I could maybe see SVT/SNH with a scattering of 5-6” amounts.
-
Transitioned to good upslope snow... big flakes. Wind picking up. A little over 7" of fluff at the ski area.
