HREF from this morning. Nice to be on the Eastern Slopes with elevation for this one.

Shame it's a stale airmass by mid Jan standards--would get alot more people in the game with LP track possibly trending a bit better.

ALY going with 1500' as the magic number---for this event at least..

Yes, near or north of Caribou is pretty much perfect for N Greens upslope. Track was better yesterday for Southern Greens with the LP sitting and spinning between Montreal and Quebec City. Still time to figure out exactly where this thing ends up.

Just going anecdotally from license plates--NJ to me is far and way most represented here, then CT and NY. Mass/PA and then a hodgepodge of everything in between.

Right, that's the way rainer's should be---not 24 hours of 50F Dews that wipes out everything in sight. I think those that are In and Up will see a net gain.

BTV going very elevation dependent which is not surprising.

For sure.. NAM and Reggie are pretty similar(in a bad way) but it's still long range for those mesos. Stick with globals for now, but keeping an eye open for that as an option too.

Well, you know I'm not referring to the Dacks...its bad for everyone in this forum. Although it does have the backside upslope up and down the spine and over into N NH after it moves into Southern Canada.

00z NAM pretty damn fugly.

Good reliable plumbers are also tough around here. My wife's Dad was a local builder here for 30 years and his plumber he used for 20 of them still kind of blows us off even with the so called "connection"..ha

They sized you up from a mile away with those MD plates and massive log home..lol

Kind of like SVT for ALY--seem like the forgotten sibling at times..ha. But where the METs live and where most of the population live is the capital region, so makes sense.

Ok, I remember there was someone who was very briefly on here when I moved in 2014, must have left soon after that. I had no clue about the microclimates here and remember asking during a huge cutter with a raging LLJ and SE winds "why is it so damn windy here?" Ha. I think he was the first one that informed me about the Western slopes downsloping.

PF can confirm, but in the past if I recall they have been something like-- " PF will enjoy the fresh 4-8" at the picnic tables". Something along those lines.

They do mention PF by name in the AFDs at times..lol

I think there was someone maybe 5 years ago or more? Someone can verify.

Don't think so, unless they are lurking quietly.

Oh Ok, thought you meant driving from Mass up to your NH spot. But like you said, 5-10 min car ride is probably long enough time in car that is pretty much an incubation chamber. Good news though that it seems mild for you. I'm definitely being a little less cavalier with my attitude towards outings compared to the previous months with cases spiking.

Yea, being in a car for a few hours with someone outside your "pod" without masks would seem like one of the highest chance avenues of contracting it. Hopefully Mark has a mild case.

Found some snow in Austria---from a few days ago. And Spain second pic.. Spain-

Pretty pathetic parking lot piles for Jackman on 1/8. Damn subtropical cutter.

Yea, makes sense--Bennington isn't getting 48" on a strong SE flow. Surface maps are pretty wild from that storm with the north/south frontal zone dissecting through New England

Since its kind of a snoozer weather wise thought I would just sneak this in. Local paper did a write up on March 1888 this week---think in response to the Mid DEC storm. First time I have seen any pictures or anything written about 1888 in this area (other than then the Kocin snow total map) They put a bunch of pics in the paper too. Dissimilar to the DEC storm where 36" was stacked up perfectly on roof tops, most roofs are bare in the pics---super wind blown powder I would guess. Interesting to think about back then they really had minimal knowledge/warning about impending storms--weenies weren't staying up for 00Z Euro and late night NAM runs.. Equinox Hotel if anybody is familiar with the area:

I'm a total sucker for a PF undercast shot. My absolute favorite.
