  1. I’m at 7” - thinking my high end will be reached and maybe busted Nearly placed that Kalshi bet on CPK but had a bad feeling and didn’t want to be rooting against snow
  2. 6.5” and ripping, will see 10 pretty easily
  3. 4” new Montclair and moderate
  4. I like this call and I think the risk is to the upside, personally. I expect 8-9" where I live but would be less shocked by 12 than I would 6 (including IP). The initial 700 mb forcing is classic and the airmass couldn't be better for isentropic upglide. I also think areas around I-80ish may not flip completely to snow if rates remain heavy.
  5. This is BARELY sleet (GFS sounding near me) and likely snow/sleet… with heavy rates it’s probably snow This is not the kind of storm that flips to sleet and done, that’s why I think my 8” call here may be low… I had 4/5 inches after mixing with sleet in Mar 2017 and this could be similar
  6. yes but coastal reflection is a bit more pronounced and a bit further south - I think it'll be a wash
  7. NYC: 7 Boston: 18 Philly: 5 DC: 4 Hartford: 14 Albany: 15 Me (Montclair, NJ): 8
  8. I'll be pushing 80 down here 10 miles WNW of Manhattan, meanwhile Stowe gets 6-8"+ Can't recall ever seeing that
  9. So sick... I've been jealous all winter, despite spending two long weekends in Southern Vt. this winter
  10. I'm trying to convince the family for one last trip up to Stowe... And want to play hookey and get one final big ski day for myself
  11. 12z GFS extends ski season in a big way
  12. Winds really kicking up the last hour here... with mod snow falling - this is the most exciting part of this multifaceted event. Great snow growth and likely 2.5-3" since the flip a few hours ago. We had 16 hours of light snow adding up to 4" then an inch and a half of sleet of varying intensity (mixed with some zr) over 12 hours adding up to 1.5, then a dramatic flip to S/S+. New England at its finest
  13. I'd call this a pretty big synoptic storm
  14. Turning to snow now as 850 low clears our longitude Fgen enhancing a bit We may get 2-3" on the back end after a messy 5-6
  15. Most sleet I've seen since VD 2007 while living in Boston Literally 12 hours straight in S VT (Wilmington) Shut out of skiing for faux icing threat - closed all the summit lifts at Mt Snow while we got slotted this morning and had freezing drizzle Yesterday was awesome though up here
  16. Looks to wrap with a few hours of decent snow as the 850 mb low clears out longitude and a spoke of fgen swings through.
  17. 5" snow/sleet here in S VT (Wilmington) We got about 4 overnight, then mod sleet then it largely shut off for a while. Unfortunately, the dry slot resulted in a bit of FZDZ mixing with the light sleet (and needles, it really was a kitchen sink situation) around 930-11 am - we arrived at the slopes around 10 just as they closed all express lifts because of ice So we turned around and left (the line for the non-bunny lift was easily 90 min). The Moover bus took about 40 min to get us back and around 1230, I heard they re-opened several good lifts. Worst part is there was very little icing at all. May try to get a few runs tomorrow but it will be 7 degrees with high wind. Frustrating!
  18. Wow, after putting down 6-8" of snow, RGEM drops 0.5-0.75" of QPF as sleet for portions of CNE. That is a high impact event!
  19. Well, it seems like the slopes did not get completely hammered yesterday. Looks fast, smooth, and not too slick on the Mt. Snow cams. Tomorrow looks to be a pretty good day, if crowded. Storm now looks like 5-7" of snow then a lot of sleet ending as FZDZ/FZRA. Hopefully lift operations are not disrupted, conditions should be great. Monday will be absolutely frigid, we'll see if we make it out at all!
