  1. 84/70 and they just spread manure upwind of my house. Feels like someone took a shit in a steam room.
  2. Yikes. Probably another hour of heavy stuff to go over there too. People are not sleeping easy tonight in the VT river valleys.
  3. Looks high but maybe not quite flood stage downstream here in Fairfax. Certainly nothing like the events last year.
  4. What an incredible stretch of early summer weather. Really good for anything you want to do outside. Hot enough to swim, dry enough to hike or bike without a sweat, warm patio temps till sunset, and cool nights with the windows open. We welcome the rain later this week but then let's re rack this all summer please.
  5. Yeah one look at that graph and you can tell it was a weird winter. Surprised to hear those +departures in March and April, it's felt like a cooler spring so far. Guess when you get used to +8 then anything less feels normal.
  6. Just a fantastic day out on the hill. Not the deepest ever.. but light dry snow, sunshine, and empty lift corrals made it one of the best days this year for me. My wife and I bought ebikes a couple weeks ago so you can all thank us for the late winter resurgence.
  7. All respect to High Road but I gotta say J.Spin always delivers the most accurate and detailed local snow report right here on the forum. It's much appreciated and always helps me make good skiing choices for the coming days. Stowe and MRG get the nod for runners up hah
  8. 7” at home, seems to be a jackpot locally as everywhere I’ve been today has less. So nice to see winter back in the valley. Is it just me or did we used to get way more of these fluffy clippers?
  9. Almost craving sun more than snow at this point. According to local NBC weather: "January 2024 has been an exceptionally cloudy month in the Champlain Valley. 87% of days over the course of the month have had overcast skies at noon, which is the highest percentage since 1951."
  10. Yeah Sunday and Monday were decent especially considering we just had two warm storms roll through. Certainly no disaster like Christmas week. But Tuesday's system plus the lake effect/upslope the past two days have really added the powder on top that we needed. Those who took the whole week off are being rewarded. I gotta think a lot of the VAST system has the green light now too?
  11. Yeah the mountains are stuffed all of a sudden. Such high quality snow too. What a sleeper week.
  12. Dumping catpaws, ushering in the cold air. Hopefully we can keep it below freezing for awhile finally.
  13. Just a couple shingles gone here. A friend in Pleasant Valley said their neighborhood has a bunch of trees down, broken garage doors, shed door blown off the hinges. Glad the east side and mountains come out of it with a gain.
  14. Had a quick inch of snow followed by some sleet and now flipped to liquid in the west side foothills. Our house is very exposed to the SE so I don't love these big downslope wind events. Happy the white pines are all on the lee side at least.
  15. Overperformer here north of BTV. 7" of fluff.
