  1. Borderline system for the mountains Friday night, wish we could tick it a degree or two colder with the CAD but as of right now the Euro and the GFS both bring some solid snows to NH/MH ski country (Wildcat, Sunday River and Sugarloaf especially) before an eventual changeover. Not surprised it hasn't gotten much talk considering it's cold rain for almost everyone on the board but I think it's worth keeping an eye on for the skiers among us. Could really use some base building snow up there.
  2. Any thoughts or opinions on a trip to Revelstoke in March given the current outlook for winter? Obviously they're not favored in a Nino setup but beyond that I really have no idea what their climo/pattern/favorability is.
  3. I use GIMP; it's got a fairly steep learning curve to understand how layers work but once you're up to speed you can make some nice looking products relatively quickly; here's an example.
  4. Took a two hour ski tour around the hill during the height of the banding (5:30 - 7:30 ish) and that redeemed a lot of the negatives about this event. Not sure what the final was here since I didn't keep any measurements but likely a respectable amount in the end - 15" ish?
  5. Yeah we're doing much better now - not pounding yet but solid improvement in flake size and fluff factor. Heading up to the top of the hill to attempt to build a ski jump shortly since driving to wawa is probably a no go right now.
  6. Finally starting to pick up here - let's make this band count!
  7. Looks like the ocean band is dying. Congrats IJD-ORH-MHT on this storm it looks like.
  8. Better than flurries which is what we've got right now. Not sure why I'm surprised that ORH stole our snow - seems to happen in every banded event
  9. Solid flizzard here. Not calling bust yet but this band better deliver.
  10. Yeah still pretty meh here on Mission Hill - had a quick period of good stuff but now the goods are to our west as opposed to our east.
  11. Been stuck in subsidence the last hour or so - down to very light small flakes right now. Heavier echoes keep dying just SE of the city.
  12. Just got up and it's absolutely ripping giant fluffy pillows! Wow!
  13. Yeah I don't think it will be an exact gradient either, but it's hard to get pretty on a map when you have the uncertianty re banding that we do right now. This will definitely bust in some areas but I think I'd rather do that than go with a broadbrush total when I think there will be many areas of relative disappointment between the main bands (outside of eastern CT which is in line to get crushed). Tough call.
  14. Ditto, fairly significantly in some spots. Someone in one of my western zones is going to get crushed with a fronto band and get 15" but I have no idea where.
  15. You had 8-14" for eastern areas last night/this morning? I'd say that's certainly major in my book.
  16. I'm not ignoring for BOS but I think CT is probably too far west to do double digits with this one. You and I are probably good for a foot I'd say.
  17. Ouch. Verbatim, 18z GFS is advisory for most outside of RI/eastern MA which is low end warning. Cape gets destroyed. Give it one more cycle to see if it comes back, but Euro FTW as of right now. We're going with 2-5" west of 91 and 5-8" east - I like that call right now.
  18. It's a bit east(30-40 miles maybe?) of the 12z run at hour 30 but should still be a pretty good hit I think.
  19. 18z NAM starts running @ 3:45. Model times for DST; NAM 3/9:45 RGEM 4/10:45 GFS 5/11:25 GGEM 12:00 UKIE 12:45 Euro 1:45
  20. SCW ‏@SouthernCTWX 2m 2 minutes ago @NWSBoston Unofficial because no snowboard and it's quite drifted but estimating 8" at NEU from an average of measure's, hope still helpful.
  21. Euro caves to the GFS, not as dry, but a massive cave. Biggest bust I've ever seen from it. Unthinkable a few years ago that the euro would do that. Upton cut totals, they had no choice.
