Yes, we talked about exact thing in the ski thread a few weeks back. There is just nothing there at all and no access, someone had mentioned the Woodford snowmobile club ventures up there I think. The upslope on radar is ridiculous in Glastenbury (for SVT standards)--every event seems to light up right over that area. The meso models sure do love that spot--every event, no matter the wind direction, bullseye's that area--lol.

It's too bad they don't keep a running tally for seasonal totals on Weathernet--would be interesting to see the seasonal Woodford totals(and other spots too--like those high spots in the Catskills) In 17-18 Woodford probably reported 230-250". The upslope there is the real deal though--the radar is always totally lit up from Glastenbury Mtn down through Woodford. They do better than any SVT resort in that aspect IMO. As mentioned multiple times, little suspect of some of the totals myself at times--but like Mitch said cant say there not accurate unless someone outside party is verifying.

PF is brave soul posting orographically driven precip maps with a deep pack while SNE has daffodils popping up and tilling gardens...

80" might do it as far as realizing its obscene. When I was in the PNW in FEB 2008 depth was 120"-150" up at Snoqualmie pass.--certainly noticeable-ha. You could tell it wasn't your average 2-4ft. Houses buried up to the second story at the base of the Summit of Snoqulamie ski area.

Yea, roof stack is a good indicator if its been stacking up nicely without a lot of wind events over the course of a winter.

There's probably a threshold where it kind all looks the same--like 44" might not look that different than 58". Anything over 2ft looks pretty beastly to me.

1.9" overnight with snow continuing most of today--although not adding up to much other then some wintry appeal. Maybe a few tenths.

Berlin NH avg is 26.7F/1.5F for 1/18. So shave a few degrees off for his location, not sure how much you would take off. Maybe 5F? Interesting looking at Berlin data, 50% of the lows are below 0F for this date. Guess that makes sense since the average is 1.5F

Days and days...

Only one type of event will wipe this base out...hopefully we don't see it again until 2030. Might be a normal climo type storm by then..lol

Of course Woodford has to one up everyone and come in with 24"....lol.

Was cranking last night with the uplslope for a while--precip shut off now. 4.6" fell overnight. A little under 10" total--most pretty dense, top inch or two little fluffier. Nice event and more than I thought being that I don't live in the clouds at 2K

A warning, yes. But technically its only for 1500' and up.

Its close here..most spots 31-32F. Like you mentioned i think, mid JAN elevation events don't seem to be that common. Center of Manchester only had about .5-1" of slop couple hundred feet lower.

Phase 2 underway here. 4.9" of wet cement from earlier. Looks like maybe 1" down and coming down nicely with good flakes. Finally below freezing at 31.8F. Was above freezing for the entire event starting last night through all of today.

Sounds similar to what I heard from my buddy who was up there today.

ALY for part 2:

I mentioned that earlier (about Woodford) I have noticed some questionable totals over the last few years honestly. Hard to say they are totally off without any verifying, but this one seems like you guy's should be in lockstep. 5" here on the front-end, which is more than I thought for the initial thump. 35.6F, hopefully pick up a few more when the upslope kicks in.

16" at Woodford at 9am. Seems weenie-ish even for them. 6" more than Mitch.

Kind of interesting looking at SVT cocorahs. Three stations in Bennington County reported exactly .68" precip. Landgrove had 7.8" on .68 LE near 1900ft My place had 3.5" on .68 LE near 1100ft Shaftsbury had 0.0" snow with. 68" rain also at 1100ft-- but a few miles removed for the spine so probably warmed just enough on the downsloping winds to remain all rain.

Right, thinking 10:1 for you since you were at 29-30F for most of it. LE here not that far off from you and greenmtnwx, just little too warm--which was expected.

Did you do a LE measurement yet? Curious how much is in that. Almost .70" here, but not quite 4" snow with temps just above freezing bringing ratios way down.

3.6" here. Got to be 5-6:1 ratio. Enough dynamics to go almost isothermal, even here in the valley. Hovered around 32.1-32.7F for most of the overnight, total mashed taters.

Agree with PF..over 1200 ft with some SE flow upslope assist think you could do better. Going strictly by that map, I cant see Manchester getting more than your area unless the backside west flow upslope delivers.

They will be fine IMO..Stratton and Bromley are both about 2k at the base.
