Not exactly the kind of trends those of us west of the NH border like to see.. Maybe a miraculous latent heat release NW jog...grasping for something. Ha

Grass somewhat covered- sort of December-esque. .5" on the board.

Yea, that's pretty solid for Stowe village. I was just checking locally Cocorahs and I'm at 3.0" and the nearest guy to me who is at 1900' east of the spine is at 8.5", obviously there will be a difference when the place is at almost 2K, but nothing outlandish. Nov pattern was pretty bad, outside of those Upslope events up north.

And BTV with only 2.7" for NOV. Everyone knows the N Greens magic, but that is still is 8x the snowfall. Truly isolated to upslope only areas. Maybe NEK too, haven't looked closely.

Thought that was too obvious considering he posted in here a few hours ago..ha

I assume you mean someone other than eyewall? I dont remember anyone else with a drone. Unless is was pre 2014 before I moved here.

So you have a stratus gauge out in the open somewhere? If you do, then there is no guessing whose number is right or not--your gauge collects what it collects and that's the amount. Could be an issue of his being wooded possibly or maybe he is a bit shadowed, but I think you said hes practically your neighbor or really close. Snowfall will be way more precarious in measuring and you will defintely have some discepencies. I have that here because I get a fair amount of windy events that make using a snowboard obselete at times.

Upper 30's in northern FL and similar temp near Orlando that we are seeing in NNE---mid 50s

Just need to Kevin to pop in and "shut em down, shut em all down"

HIE only .17" in the bucket looking at the hourly obs. Pretty much a heavy drizzle there.

Wunderground doing a nice job of showing the classic Bennington country downslope zone on the estimated precip. Just checked my gauge and its .65" So peeking at PWS precip amounts, looks like most eastern slopes spots are .70-.95" then slides down to .65" at my place on the immediate western slopes, the fades off to .25-.50" a heading west a few miles from the spine. Definitely been gusty, but considering how many high wind events there are here, pretty meh overall.

Phin going to be putting the heat on Will soon if he isn't waist deep in snow..

We torch. Got a nice bike ride in with my daughter, although not sunny, nice enough for a quick pre turkey dinner ride.

45/43. Borderline muggy

Just to look at the difference 1 week can make...I posted yesterday the graph that showed average snowpack for the local COOP for 11/24. It was 38% chance for greater than 1" depth. Go out just about 1 week from now on 12/3 and it jumps to 66%. So again shows how quickly it can ramp up and NOV normally isnt a good starting point for contnuous snow cover.

Yeah, massive cutter that just kind of sits and spins over the Ohio Valley/Great Lakes with a firehose of moisture coming up from the gulf aimed at NE. Ugly, get that out of the way and move on to hopefully some snow chances.

Snow depth data on 11/24 for Peru VT COOP at 1700ft that is really good retention spot( 80 years of data) Lot of 0.0 depth data looking at it year by year. 38% chance of 1" on snow OTG on 11/24.

I moved up from West Chester in 2014, albeit permanently. Can't speak for NVT, but around here rentals and long term leases are scarce and most that are available are pricey. But since it seems your young and no attachments(kids, etc) maybe able find a smaller place--studio/1bed, but again not sure about BTV market, but assume stuff is high demand.

Small blessing I guess with COVID is the flexbililty to be where you want to be for long stetches. (As opposed to weekend warrioring it) Is everyone just homeschooling their kids? (Don't know if you have any or not, more a general question) My wife's cousin has lived and Brooklyn for 10+ years and bought a 2nd place in Manchester recently and will be here reomtely until they are needed full time back in the office. They enrolled their only child in school here for the year.

Also, maybe in the past when people have posted data they may have just cropped out the address bar and side bar so you just see the table and don't see where it's coming from?

Don't think so, pretty sure Xmacis has been available for a quite a while( although not totally sure of timeframe?). What's cool is that it has COOP and cocorahs data combined which is nice.

Similar temp ranges here. The 43F is at 850' and the 56F is around 1130'

Well, Phin is certainly driving some chatter..be it political or snow driven...lol. Plus there are some other newer posters also making the subforum worthy of more than just collecting usplope radar shots.

Ha, for sure. When I moved here I didn't have even the slightest clue about how extreme the microclimates were. It totally fascinates me, you can spend hours and hours looking at topo maps throughout NE and trying to figure out what pattern and wind directions works best for what area. ( myself for that one) I came from an area in PA where there was just such minimal difference in topography and microclimates that I never even noticed it outside of some elevation events where at 500ft someone had 3" and at 200ft maybe you had .5" of slop. It was pretty simple really, the suburbs got more snow than Philly the further W and NW you went and that was that pretty much that. ..lol.

I love the every once in a while subdued, dry JSpin SNE burn... Had an epic one a bunch of years back aimed at Scooter and Weymouth...I cant remember the details, but it was pretty funny.
