No more rocks. Just snow up to kocks.

Another 8” at the plot between 4pm yesterday and 12pm today.  Couldn’t check it earlier because of lift wind holds.  Multiple lifts never opened today, but co-worker and friend Andre took on the mission and traveled uphill and a couple miles laterally to get the snowfall reading off the Gondola from the Sunrise lift.

It just wants to snow.  87” depth at the Co-Op Stake!

Bottomed out at 40” in early March… and have since gained about four feet in snowpack depth since then.

Does the hill hit 100” on the ground?!

Beware the wind. at Cannon SR was closed today wind holds

Gonna be lot of pissed off skiers around NNE on Sunday driving up all stoked thinking they’re getting a pow day just to sit on wind hold. Saturday is the day but roads will be gnarly so will keep some off the hill. Shaping up well for locals

Weird up and down year but your above normal right now and may go way above soon.

Where do they keep daily records? Funny because even the whites are meh.

On the upper Toll Road.  This past multi-week cycle was largely upslope driven.  There have been synoptic episodes at times, but multiple CAA intrusions into moist, higher than normal PWAT air masses is going to precipitate efficiently in the NW flow zones.

Blocked and unblocked flow, but either way it has dumped over the Spine.  Blocked SE flow on front side followed by NW flow can absolutely load the upper east side.  Upslope flow with spring moisture levels has historically led to snowier (higher QPF) events than expected in the mountains.

In the end, regardless of location it has been the longest high elevation observation in the state of Vermont.  NWS has an elaborate camera set up on “the Stake.” Almost 70 years of observations to compare to at the exact same spot.

Oh I meant the records. Is there a place to view it like on the NWS page? I didn’t see it.

Huh I was looking for that on my phone. Yeah that’s like 4-6”/day average since Sunday ha.

We went 12 days without a full inch at the plot in mid-winter.  That is incredibly hard to do. Now every measurement is multiple inches.
