Definitely an elevation gradient here in the valley. About 1.5" at 700-750ft in the middle of town around 8am. Total paster out there, still some Mod snow falling, probably closed to 7" now after the board clear. Definitely 12"+ in the east slope towns with elevation and at the ski areas I would think. Just saw this, yeah Stratton is deporting 14” as of early this morning. Mid mountain cam definitely looks like well over a foot. My house for this winter is also at 1100 but on the east side right outside Jamaica so it will be interesting comparing observations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure there was more at your place on the east side with the upslope cooling/lift with east flow and I was downsloping and warming and the west slopes. But, yea would be interesting to know since its similar elevations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dryslot Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 That band set up shop over some areas of VT last night that had some good lift, The snow here was more showery in nature with quite a few heavy burst off and on overnight rather then just a steady wall of white.

Saw 1.5", then, washed away like it never happened. Again, no worries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depending on where you are standing on the property we're within a few feet of 400 at GYX. And you're really going to be pissed when I tell you we're actually at 7.9" storm total (we just measured before the change over arrived). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxeyeNH Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 I'm back......on generator power What a frickin storm. 11" of paste and wind. Just took snow totals. 5.5" down at Newfound Lake 587 feet 11" my house 1100 feet (still light snow falling) 14" my neighbor at the 1500 feet (he posted the ruler on his grill and it looks legit) Most of our town does not have power. Poles down, trees down everywhere. Town workers are cutting trees to open the hill roads. Amazing differences in elevation and the type of snow. The 750 feet to 1100 feet got the damage. Above my elevation was a bit colder so the snow didn't stick to the trees. We lost several apple trees. Birch are bent to the ground. White pines sure got a trim. Snow changed to sleet past couple of hours but back to light snow. Davis says 33.3F but my calibrated digital says 32.0F not sure what is right but no drippage yet on trees. Maybe we can pick up a bit more accum but skies are bright. Few pics below. House took a plaster on east side. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tunafish Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 2 hours ago, OceanStWx said: I do have to chuckle a bit at the ski resorts posting their totals this morning. Not calling any one out specifically, but Wildcat for instance posts a picture exclaiming 8" at the base with a ruler stuck in the snow. Well the ruler shows it's actually 7.6" For all intents and purposes if you're skiing Wildcat it's about 8" but for those that diligently measure snowfall, that's some pretty serious rounding. I see a lot of this on social media, not just from the ski resorts. individuals will tweet their total with a picture of a ruler stuck in the snow on their deck, and do some rounding. Do you guys use those in your PNS under "social media"? If so, doesn't that discredit those taking actual measurements with a snow board? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean .... It's more the trust factor. I can't really trust the reporting out of our ski resorts when I see them inflating totals. Next event do they report summit total instead of base? I don't really know. And our GIS programs here at the office can have huge differences based on elevation. We want that to be as accurate as possible so it doesn't bleed into the lower elevations. It's also a problem that we have no relationship with ski resorts in our area. It's not like BTV at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We use them basically because otherwise we'd have obs from a few select towns. We need them to "fill in the gaps." But they are also the first to get the boot when our map has bullseyes (too low or too high). Like that ASH report. That 1.5" will get kicked out in favor of the 0.2" if the map ends up looking bad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried to estimate some lat/lon values for the 5.5" and 14" because that may help our GIS program plot a better elevation dependent snow map.
