Excellent little surpise in Leb thus far. We have about 4 inches and it continues to snow. On the negative side, the roads are absolutely horrible, and there was a 20 car accident around exit 22-23 on I 93 in NH.

Snow has picked up again. We are approaching 2" or so. Again hard to measure with previous depth.

Still playing with cam settings, but here's a snap from IR mode.

That's a great capture! What cam do you have? Been looking to upgrade my ip wxcam.

Nice.

48 hours left for me to decide if I want a new cam... they are offering 35% off.

Stardot NetCam SC 5MP with day/night (IR). I got it during their big Black Friday sale. I just need an IR illuminator and an outdoor enclosure. I have it temporarily running out the window right now.

Awesome web cam image, Dendrite. That's pretty sweet. I want one.

You can do it, put your left-click into it.

Shoes, sticks, and snow. These are some of my favorite things.

Proud to be a Lab, and do what Labs do!

Our Lab was surprisingly uninterested today in all the deer tracks within 40-50' of the house, made the past two nights. Deer stay above the 7" crusty base, I don't - time to bring out the racquets.

Now under WWA for 4-6" - not bad at all, considering that all forecasts more than 24 hr ago brought my area flurries or nada. 1st hr snow brings 0.1", but the poor sublimated flakes are still trying to moisten the column.

Looks great.. Video performance samples also look impressive on the Stardot site.. Are you going to post the cam stills and/or video publicly?

[eyewall]

Looks like 2" or slightly more. Snow got real light for awhile but has picked up again in Williston. Overall it has been slow to accumulate.

Yeah...I'll post a link to the cam site once I get it permanently mounted outside. I still need to find the ideal place/angle to keep the lens from pointing into the sun. That image I posted is facing west.

A little over 2" now. Should let up over the next couple hours before ramping up one more time...although the heaviest should stay over eastern Hillsborough and Rockingham.

[NorEaster27]

7 inches so far in the southern adriondacks

[eyewall]

2.5" or so now maybe a touch more. Seems the heaviest rates have been 0.5" per hour at times.

[eekuasepinniW]

4"

Only picked up 1 inch over the past couple hours despite some good bursts.

[mreaves]

Just got home from my wife's family Christmas in Moretown. At times it was absolutely pouring snow but as someone else said it was having a hard time accumulating at times. Haven't measured here at home yet but it looks to be between 3 and 4 inches.

[NorEaster27]

a good 20 inches on the ground now, 8 inches storm total. great storm

Where?

[mreaves]

Where?

I think he is in Lake George NY.

Hey, while I am replying to you, you don't pack a portable snow measuring board with you when you travel? LOL

Haha I should although this one has underperformed so far.

[NorEaster27]

Where?

lake george, just north in bolton. southern adriondacks. still snowing was only expecting 2-4

[mreaves]

Haha I should although this one has underperformed so far.

Just measure here and have 3.5". I'm happy. Reports of 7"+ in Rutland County.

[eyewall]

underperforming actually is a bit of a stretch. We are closing in on 3" which is about on pace with forecasts.

[j24vt]

1.9" as of 6:30pm and still snowing

Nice!

[Allenson]

4.2" down and still snowing. It's lightened up some and doesn't seem to be stacking up like it was a few hours ago though.

Beautiful out there.

Yikes, That sucks dude, You can use the break to get repairs done

Yeah--might even go look for a newish plow to put on the newish truck. Enough effing around with the old gear.

[CardinalWinds]

Pretty unimpressive here. About 2", maybe hair more. Had a few moderate periods this afternoon, but the flakes were very small, and, as mentioned had a hard time accumulating. Radar looking really unimpressive and though it's still lightly snowing, think I'm about done here for any more depth.

Oh well, got more than I expected in The Wednesday/Thursday event...it's all good
