For the end of the week?  Gonna be skiing far northern VT 5-7 and been concerned with a warm rainy surge. 

The event I was referring to was the Tues/Wed storm, which looks good for snow. Beyond that VT could be flirting with mix precip and minor freeze thaw

I've been in North ORH County for 14 years and I've already had (3) 30" events that I can think of off the top of my head, or at least very close to 30".  A 40" will never happen though, too up and in. 

40" happened in ORH county in Dec 1992....42" in Princeton I think. We had 35" on the level in Holden about 300 feet lower. It will happen there too....ORH county has orographic enhancement to help make up for being a bit inland....and it has the benefit of being the highest terrain between them and the Atlantic in both the easterly and the southerly direction.

40" can happen inland if you get under the banding long enough...NYS had in VD 2007....many areas in December 2020.

What kills me to this day is that I missed Nemo and the 38-40” around here I was in Norwalk for the entire storm working so didn’t get to witness the incredible several hour whiteout of 6” + rates for several hours back home. May never happen again here, but I think we will have our chances.

Could end up the storm of my life. Hard to beat for my location.

It's interesting that 1978 and 1996 are the only two years I have in my personal log that had 30" in a single event - and I wasn't a part of the 1996.  

Yet, I have been proximal to the same event that has done that 4 times just since 2010.  Maybe 5...

If we're basing the odds of getting that on some kind of experience or climate inference, be aware of the risks.
