What a miserably cold day. 1pm and it's 28F here and 29F in BTV. We may not crack freezing in full sunshine. After it was 65F yesterday we go back to full hat, gloves, winter jackets just to let the dog outside.

Time to break out the 84 hr Reggie....
-
See I thought it was the cold front when those thunderstorms came through hours ago but it's still mid-50s up here. Very windy though with gusts 30mph or greater pretty often. Only some small branches down but praying we don't lose power. We get some decent winds mixing down east of the Spine/east slopes in these fast westerly flows. 54/37 right now at 8:45pm.

Yup do not disturb is wonderful for large group chats. I love looking at my phone when it hasn’t vibrated and see 37 new texts from a group lol.
-
I'd take a 75F right now to get rid of the remaining ice pack around the yard and filthy snowbanks next to the driveway.
-
I always take the more bullish on those 2,000+ elevations of Schoharie (SP?) and Greene Counties (like Tannersville), or even SW Albany County has some towns up near 2,000ft. Its another world at that elevation. They'll have no problem accumulating at that height.
-
That seems extremely reasonable. I agree with that from what I've looked at today for a large swath of 3-6" from PA/Catskills/then the central slice of New England. Lollis to 6-8" in a stripe that might be like the Catskills to southern VT to Monadnocks or ORH Hills?
-
It's like two different discussions.... one for those looking for 10"+ MECS and then those who just want to paste the forest/landscape white one last time. Hell even a pasty 3-6" looks beautiful.
-
Same high up here. MVL hit 65/54 ahead of that line. Felt wonderful. Had a humid feel to it too.
-
Meh, pretty solid gust front (maybe 35-40mph very quick one-time pulse) then just some moderate rain. Pretty standard mountain FROPA. No thunder.
-
These little bowing segments might pack some wind.
-
65F with SVR alerts going off... then like a high of 30F tomorrow. Yikes.
-
Severe Thunderstorm Warning up here.
-
18z EPS didn’t look much different than 12z. Snow probs not much different, noise levels. Hopefully the SNE/CNE crowd can cash in.
-
Yeah that’s what my first reaction was saying. Twice the frequency makes sense given proximity to the deeper moisture source.
-
Lol reminds of when Kev says a model is good and everyone is like no that’s not what it shows and the retort is “but when you add in its biases it’s a big hit”... not saying that’s happening here Tip, just gave me a chuckle.
-
Oh it has to be MUCH less up north here. BTV can do like 100" in a season without a 12-inch event in one sitting lol. Part of me bets ORH has to have one of the better return rates of big events for an official climate station.
-
Ah yeah wasn’t thinking normal but out of full ratter territory. More into like below normal totals that have been seen before. BDL is still within striking distance with a biggie but the valley would be tougher there. You guys have the climo to pull biggies out of overall poor patterns of things break right.
-
We always tell them, in SNE climate you can always get a biggie that changes the season relative to normal.
-
Lol yeah that’s hard to argue with.
-
Will the Ocean do that this time of year in a torch pattern? Cold SSTs relative to surface temps?
-
Backyard is now 50-50 snow to grass ratio. Front yard is pretty much gone except in the shadows of the hedge rows.
-
Lake Tahoe just got 114” in 3 days as measured at Ski Homewood, and they normally get less snow than the bigger resorts like Squaw, Alpine and Kirkwood. Those other mtns aren’t reporting snowfall so as not to encourage use of the mountains. Crazy to have the largest storm of the year hit right when everyone closes from COVID-19.
-
Today was ok, but yeah it's getting to be everyone's favorite time of year.... useless 40s and 50s. Either be snowing (like today) or be 60+.
-
Ended up with 1.5” in Stowe Village.
