Last night they postponed my kid's Xmas concert to tonight - stupid move. By far the scariest drive I have had in my entire life (he goes to school in Whitefield, so not far, but not around the corner either). My phone was screaming bloody murder "SQUALL ALERT" (Or something like it), and for a time I just could not tell where the road was - front, sides, back looked all the same. Just pure white. My weenie mom was in a panic. But anyways, made it back safely, and measured 4.5 tonight. That brings the total for the past 24 hours or so to just about 9" - hard to complain when a few days ago we thought we'd have to watch SNE get all the snow again. Skiing was fantastic and it's still coming down moderately out there. It's winter in NNE, and all is good.

Snowing nicely here, big fluffy flakes, but not of the squally type. Just your regular garden variety upslope

What's the expected time frame for tonight's extravaganza?

1.9 overnight, 4.4 total, 5 at the stake. Light snow at the moment.

1.3” at this last measurement, for a 2.5” total so far

Oh and 1.2" so far. Nickel and dimes, make us rich...

Actually not sure! It's not print, it's an actual commercial, but I don't know the target market

Heavy snow falling on my deck in preparation for the shoot

I think you’re right, though we ended up get some really nice snows tonight - looks like a couple of inches. I’ll measure after the kids go to bed. it’s good for the heart to get rid of those lawn patches, 8 hours of bare ground in December is 8 hours too long!!! Drove down to Concord today, it’s crazy how little snow cover there is in NNH. Patchy (at least before the upslope kicked in) north of the Notch, and literally nothing from Lincoln on south. Seems crazy for December

Upslope has been pretty limited so far... just some lights stuff, enough to whiten the ground but pretty pathetic. Kinda like December as a whole

Ah! Yes that makes sense

Downsloping??? I wish, at least it'd be dry. It's raining from Florida to the St Lawrence. That'd be one big area of downslope!!! More worried about downsloping on Tue/Wed but we'll see. December to remember my a$$

Heavy squalls made it here

How is it that this coming weekend storm is so warm? Seems like a pretty perfect track for us! But what do I know...

Turning to snow here. The horror is over. About 6” left at the stake

0.8” overnight here. Now, it’s rain time (or almost. Currently 29.7 with no precip)

-7F, but sun!!!

Funny you should say that - I actually just got off the phone with a production company that wants to shoot a Sam Adams commercial at my house. They wanted a place with good chances of a snowy scenery.

I posted this in the other thread but it’s moderate snow and semi blue sky here. Very cool

3.2” overnight, 14” at the stake

Several ungroomed no snowmaking trails opened here this week - was fun to ski and great conditions with a very dense bottom layer and fluffy top! Looks like the whole mountain is making snow tonight though lol. Prepping for the meltdown?

1.2”! I agree with you. I’d rather get 1-2” every day than 10” one day and nothing for a week.

Nice snowy morning. Stake just went over 10” which i think is the deepest so far this season

3.3" here today. Skiing was fantastic.

Had the same thought! Also, as far as missing on the storm... I was telling DIane recently how my perception has changed since moving up here. In Mass missing a storm always hurt because the chances are so much more limited to get snow. Up here, we get so much and the season is so long, that it's really easy to let go when one doesn't pan out. I mean, heck, we've had measurable - albeit very light - snow something like 6 out of the last 7 days, and I've been looking at stunningly beautiful trees all week. I still do hate cutters though...
