Logan11 Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Love the Happy Corner Cafe ..near Pittsburg. Drive another 15 minutes and you cross the border and drop down the big hill to the village of La Patrie. Very true. It's really a shame we're losing our observers up in that area (including First Connecticut). The long term average at that Coop site was 155", with the johnsnhweather.com guy living a few miles north and at 175". Head towards the Whites around Diamond Pond and you're talking 230". Think about that, the difference form First Connecticut Lake to Diamond Pond is like the seasonal average for BOS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan11 Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 They are on the northwest slope of those uplands, with valleys to the west/northwest until you hit the northern extension of the Greens further west. I ski Sunapee all the time and have noticed how poorly we do on the forecast for that part of NH. They always seem to hang onto SHSN longer than we think. A lot of it has to do with the radar beam overshooting the precip, but it happens quite often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The differences up there are dramatic it always amazes me when up there snowmobiling. The downtown area of Colebrook can have 6" but head 10 miles east to diamond pond and theres 20"+. That ridge line from Diamond Pond up to the eastern part of Pittsburg always has a crazy snowpack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not all budget related, but we lost most of our northern NH observers in one year. First Conn Lake, Diamond Pond, York Pond. It's amazing how much a rely on that personal website for information up in Coos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atleast johnsnhweather takes religious obs, I think hes only like 1/4-1/2 mile from the lake up a couple hundred feet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damage In Tolland Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Well it looks like we all go into the cold shot with bare ground. Maybe the storm in early Jan will be snow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moneypitmike Posted December 27, 2013 Author Share Posted December 27, 2013 I've updated the locations poll results chart below. The areas identified most frequently are Boston or VT/NH. So, when you're speaking to the board, you might want to be careful of throwing out "where no one lives". In fact, with the current trend, we may want to congratulate that large chunk of our board members who are in the running for some decent snow. After I posted this the last time, 20 more people responded to the poll. I'll update again if the N changes appreciably. Otherwise, we'll stick with this.

Damage In Tolland Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Hopefully the northern tier of Mass will be able to accumulate a couple inches on top of the puddles.before it shuts off. Many places will end as snow..Hopefully it's enough to cover the ground with an inch or 2..but at this point..even that seems like a longshot.

My wife was pushing a trip to Jackson on Sunday. I was reluctant because of the snow expected down here. Seems like taking the trip may be the the only way I get to see snow.

I've lived with it for years here and will say that it's an exercise in extrapolation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moneypitmike Posted December 27, 2013 Author Share Posted December 27, 2013 LOL--this thread experienced a sudden death with the runs last night and this morning. Just checked the forecast for Jackson--looks great. Fresh snows Sunday nighit. The temps on Sunday are mild (about 30*) so the (nordic) trails might be a little soft, but a great weather day before the cooler air comes in Monday night. If the 12z models show the same crap down here as they have been, my decision will be easy and will be northward bound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
