You don’t have a back up snowblower?
-
It doesn’t matter, the Christmas grinch is capable of stealing any size pack.
-
If the pattern breaks the right (wrong?) way, we could be setting ourselves up for some epic river flooding in a few weeks. Get a cold, high QPF snow/rainer then freeze followed by a warm, high QPF rainer a week later and the floodgates will open.
-
It must be killing folks at Berkshire East not to be open today. Their sister Mt Catamount is running at half capacity due to power outages on the NY side.
-
I’m going C-/D with 42” It’s all relative to what your climo is. I also factor in how cold it was, pond ice, pack retention etc. getting a big dog also would factor into my grade and we did not achieve that at my location for this storm.?
-
Man, you and I have had neck and neck seasonal averages the past few years.
-
There must be some heartbroken weenies in Saugerties! I will say this, as disappointed as I was not to do better, it’s nice not dealing with a bunch of snow in my yard or at work today.
-
DIT approved.
-
There were differences of 15” across sone towns.
-
Going to take a drive into the hills later this morning and hopefully get sone good photos. The totals around me are astounding. Lots of 25-30” reports within 5-10 miles of Greenfield. Berkshire East still has no power. : (
-
The marginal nature, of the antecedent air mass we had to work with, is clear in the fact that I have not been below freezing for two days.
-
It was already a top 1 to 3 storm for some high terrain posters, a cold source would have maybe made it a top 1-3 all time SNE storm across the forum.
-
East flow often screws us here but not always. It was painful watching downtown Greenfield, at low elevation get 2-3' more than me but I'm sure it was the big hills immediately to my N and W that did the downslope damage. Give me SWFE's please. lol
-
Anyway, 5" was disappointing especially because it was a slow melt all day with temps around 34F. On the bright side I broke over 40" for the season.
-
Not sure what positive depth change for here was but I think I would have done a little better than 5" if not for some weird terrain anomaly's around here.
-
They all pretty much doubled that.
-
He’ll need to clear at some point. It will freeze tomorrow night.
-
Just let it melt out.
-
These were the TV met calls:
-
Yeah, Not sure what happened there? I know exactly where that is and no trees close to it and only 4 or 5 inches of snow fell.
-
Heaviest snow of the day in this band. Be nice to tack on another inch or two for consolation.
-
Exactly. It was clear for days this was an elevation event, despite what weenie goggles we wanted to throw on.
-
I guess several Berkshire ski areas lost power and did not open.
-
Your total so far? 5” here. It’s wet so I did not keep up with clearing and measuring.
-
A friend of mine is out driving looking for photo ops and he said he’s seen 10 to 15 inch snow differentials across 3 or 4 mile distances. He said there is 15 inches of snow 4 miles from my house. I probably have 5” total for the day. Somebody on FB said in Shutesbury there is 2” on the southern end of town close to 20” inches in the north.
