  1. It's just a Lowes bucket.
  2. Nope. I started yesterday. Yesterday there seemed to be some nice dripping with the sun out but it didn't amount to anything, and today there wasn't anything at all. I wasn't expecting much, but I wanted to take advantage of the nice weather to tap. It's coming, one way or another
  3. While our weather may be a bit boring at the moment, I started tapping the maples which gave me a really good reminder of how deep the pack is. When you sink, you sink deep! My dog started digging and hit something... I went to check it out, it was the top of my wheelbarrow buried under the snow! It's a bit unreal to feel like you're walking on a surface and realize that the ground is several feet below you. Also cool to notice that the tags that I placed on some trees at eye level are now around waste level. A bit surreal - and not something you really appreciate by just "looking at the snowpack". Took this picture in one of my "breakthroughs". And of course there's more snow under my foot!
  4. I hope SNE gets buried. Not only do they deserve it after what they've endured this season, but this is the time of the year where people quickly stop thinking about skiing if they don't see snow. And the more they think about skiing the more they come up and the better we do in the tourism industry. And I like making money.
  5. I think about 5" but it's been really hard to measure, it's entirely too windy. I'm curious to see what the resort reports tomorrow, they are generally very very close to my measurements (I had 6.75 yesterday and they reported 7)
  6. I can't believe how snowy it's been today. It's really making a pretty epic looking snowpack
  7. It's been insane. I just posted this video of my drive home from the gym on the other thread
  8. Holy squalls. These pics are not as bad as it got, I could not see 50 ft ahead at one point
  9. Kind of a fun day today between heavy snow squalls and wind gusts. Just took this picture in a short lived peek of sun; the sun and the snow made for a very cool effect. Snow.stake is "down" to 29" though - probably a mix of wind and compaction - even though we've probably gotten another 2" since this morning
  10. Good snow overnight ; 4" giving a 6.75" storm total. Enough to bring the stake over 30" for the first time this season (32" to be exact)
  11. More than I expected for sure! 4" overnight, and the snow stake is now up to 32". Still snowing nicely
  12. Haha just posted the same thing to the NNE thread. Beautiful snow tonight, it's like spray paint
  13. 1" so far tonight. 2.75" total for today. Moderate snow. Very cool snow tonight, everything is plastered even the tree trunks
  14. Funny, after a blizzard like day now it's dead calm and moderate snow. Nice snow growth and sticking well with no wind.
  15. Not sure why but still 32 in Bretton Woods. Was expecting much warmer
  16. Took the kids and the dog for a walk at Diana's Baths. Very cool as always. Amazing to see the weather difference between home and the valley. Home was very blizzard like, heavy wind whipping snow everywhere, a snow sleet mix. Reminded me of the Midwest. On the other side of the notch it's a gentle snowfall with no wind whatsoever.
  17. Same here, although I assume I'm also downsloping making it even worse. Occasionally we get some heavier bursts and occasionally it goes to sleet. Accumulations unknown at this point - very windy so nothing on the deck
  18. Haha yes. Maybe it's part of a new strategy - choose your own weather. No one will ever be unhappy about their forecast again.
  19. @OceanStWx you guys should fix this in the grids. Just doing some QC'ing for you. Sunday Sunday: Snow, possibly mixed with sleet, becoming all snow after 4pm. Sunday Night Sunday night: Rain and snow showers likely, becoming all snow after 8pm.
  20. I'm not good at reading modes but I'm not sure I buy all snow in the mountains based on the current models. At least not in "my mountains"
  21. P&C has all snow here on Sunday. I don't see any models that keep us all snow... Or am I wrong??? Especially with some downsloping
  22. Heavy snow here, looks like about an inch or so
