That matches up very well with the report I got from my friend here at work - he is just north of Rt. 6 and I want to say about 8 miles south of Coudersport? 

Edit: I see that Rt. 6 sort of runs through Coudersport...well, he said he's just north of Rt. 6 but he also said he's in the middle of nowhere...so maybe 8 miles east or west. 

Yes, it does.  He'd be east of coudersport, which is where that Sweden hill snow cam is located.  If my assumption is correct, its called Potato City and that area has lots of cabins. Back in the day it was a snowmobile mecca of sorts. 

Im about 10-12 miles further east on 6 right between the village of gaines and Ansonia.  My place is 4 miles north of rt 6 up on top (for best LES accums of course .

Nooner NAM nest has LES streamer parked over my place in Gaines.  As sled trails open at close of rifle season (dark) saturday night, it'd be fun a shit to take them up for a rip and blow much dust off them.  Hoping norther woods can survive whatever the warmup is (although Ens guidance sorta says not likely).  Tellies show mixed signals IMO but neg PNA is not typically a good precurser to winter in the east.  Coupled w/ WAR....yuk.  Still enough time for that to change for better or worse.

Sure enough, streamers been going right over that area.  Multiple periods of whiteout on my buddy's cam.  Awesome stuff.

I know we've hashed this out before, but my buddy's place is a little under 4 miles east of the Tioga/Potter border and a little over 3 miles SSE of Gaines, close to 2,000'.

Was 6" when I left last Wednesday 12/3, and from what i'm hearing, we are aoa 9-10" otg.  I'm 3 miles east of potter/tioga border and abt 15 miles S of NY border.  Technically way west central Tioga.

With all the northern tier talk, thought I would drop a message.  I’m in tioga county, and it has been a very nice start to winter up here, especially the last two days.  It snowed all day yesterday, and have had some nice squalls coming through all day today(a very heavy one about an hour ago), loving the snow and cold so far to start winter! Hope the LSV cashes in before any warm up!

GFS is fugly. Hope it's wrong.

I hope after the upcoming thaw we can get back in the freezer by the end of the year. I know a lot of people hate dry and cold...I get it, but I hate warm when it's supposed to be cold. God knows we have many months of warm weather.

The “good” news is the Euro and NAM generally agree which is usually a good allegiance

I don't want "warm", just normal. My job gets difficult and stressful when we get Arctic cold.
