    Starting to look like a winter of yore

    About 3-4" here. Much heavier than I was expecting. It's gonna be a great week for skiing as long as you're bundled up Michelin man style

    Eew why? 20s is perfect. Give me 18-28 and a few inches of upslope every day and I’m all set

    -1. I believe it’s the first below 0 of the season

    These past few storms have been like an IV to a dying ski season. Bretton Woods has opened up a ton of terrain, including glades and the T bar. Looks like West Mountain will be opening soon as well, making the entire area accessible. Surface is a bit firm - the snowpack is DENSE but we do have 3-5” of fluffier stuff in the forecast, should be great in the upcoming days.

    I have all the respect in the world for those who attempt to predict anything beyond 3-5 days but I’m a data guy and it seems like these time frames are completely voodoo. I don’t believe it when they say cold and super snowy, I don’t believe it when they say bring out the shorts. One day the show one thing, a few days later they show another - in either direction. I’m sure there are metrics out there but empirically they seem close to random chaos

    About 2-3” from the squalls

    Finally reach a foot of depth here. Heavy, dense snow except for the top few inches. Good start, just a month or two late

    We had those with the last storm. This time was mostly snow and not much rain so it’s a pretty standard looking snow cover. But those were kinda cool to see lol

    Kids loved the new swimspa. Wanted a pool but this so much more usable up here
  11. alex
    Franconia Notch didn't get much during the last storm but it looked like they were getting ready to open in Bretton Woods and theyre open in Bartlett. Cross country skiing also opened yesterday in BW

    Some good plastering This week has really helped Kickstart the snow pack. Several new trails opened at the resort, including some all natural
  13. alex
    It's turning into a birch bender here. Huge flakes of wet snow at 32 degrees - everything is plastered
  14. alex
    It's dumping
  15. alex
    Also, not as much snow but also a lot less rain that the last storm which is a win.

    About 1/2" or so since flipping back to snow. Most have power back but not all areas. Such a crazy day
  17. alex
    Blizzard like in Bretton Woods and no power. Amazingly though you drive 10 miles north and it's just drizzle in Whitefield lol. Here's a picture of route 3 in Twin Mountain Vs 7 miles up in Whitefield

    Second time this week with blizzard conditions. I'm sick of it. Can we just have regular snow?
  19. alex
    Our temperature spiked from 15 to 29 in a matter of minutes
  20. alex
    Makes complete sense
  21. alex
    I’m not sure. Franconia also got mostly rain, and they’re not too far. Must be something with the nuance of the wind direction vs mountain ranges to our south
  22. alex
    I think it’s even more impressive that an area so prone to downsloping as mine got 12”. That front end meant business, and the cold air hung on remarkably well
  23. alex
    Amazing gradient here. Goes from a foot in Bretton Woods to a sloppy inch in Carroll less than 5 miles away
  24. alex
    LOL! Hey, we should get some credit for it being already all shoveled. This stuff is heart attack material - but if you don't do it now, it's not gonna be fun later
  25. alex
    Warmup was short lived, changing back to snow here. All in all, a great storm and a nice net gainer of heavy base snow
