Dumping catpaws, ushering in the cold air. Hopefully we can keep it below freezing for awhile finally.
-
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.
-
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.

Overperformer here north of BTV. 7" of fluff.

I had to drive to Spruce Peak tonight for the NYE event and its hard to believe it till you see it. Brown all through some typical snowy spots in Hyde Park and Morrisville, an inch or two as you come into town, and then the jackpot partway up 108. Beautiful snow too, clinging to everything and fluttering down all night. Just in time so all the holiday crowds can see what they missed before they head home.

Frameable.

Yeah best start since 2018 I'd say. This week has been stellar. Thanks to PF for the tip last night, this one was sneaky.

Yeah just an incredible stretch. Was able to hit Smuggs, Whiteface, Tucks and MRG last week. I love powder but a warm sunny spring day on the hill is about as fun as skiing gets.
-
Pretty special couple days in northern VT, and across NE from the looks of it. Yesterday and today were probably the best inbounds ski days I've had here since the big March in 2018. The lowball forecast and maybe some end of winter apathy really cut the crowds down. And the stake soaring above average during peak seasonal depth is huge. Everything is skiing like it should right now which feels great after a few poor seasons in a row.

Yeah beer sales will be up in VT ski towns this weekend. Friday is almost looking worse. More clouds, more wind, and temp dropping throughout the day. Not to mention we're all used to skiing in light layers in the 20s and 30s at this point, hah
-
Tapering off here so gotta be at or over 1 now. Not good for my backyard but great for first chair tomorrow. Colder temps tonight will dry things out too.
-
Yup coming down nicely here on NW flow. 5" so far of very heavy snow. Tough to get the skis around in the trees today.
-
Flipped to snow in the northern Champlain Valley and coming down hard. Will be nice to come out of this with white ground.
-
Japan is amazing. You ever been? Best snow machine on the planet.
-
2001-02 comes to mind, back in my high school days. And it shows how you can turn this around into a decent year. But it feels like we need this one next week.
-
You'll be fine. We're on the early side of peak, there will be plenty of leaves left and it looks like another sunny stretch next week. Was driving around the western slopes of the Greens today and thinking the same thing. The colors are phenomenal. Seems like the trees are all synced up this year and turning at the same time. Between that and all the sunny weather it's been one of the best foliage seasons that I can remember.

April 27 > May 16. Hell of a 19 day turnaround. I love the huge seasonal changes in NNE.
-
Classic daffodil crusher. Still dumping and starting to stick to pavement.
-
Flipped and snowing pretty good here at 500ft in the Champlain Valley.
-
Took the scenic route home today. Mansfield looking as good as she has all winter.
-
Hah yeah had to double check the calendar to confirm that was only a week ago today. I'm headed up to Bryant Camp for a couple nights this week, hoping the spine can squeeze a couple inches out tonight to at least whiten things up.
-
Damn, some grade A shots right there! #3 is a keeper. Was nice to get daytime event, super fun storm skiing yesterday and it brought back terrain I thought for sure was done for the season. Wind stripped most the snow off the trees last night but the sheltered pockets today were beautiful. Here's one from behind my parent's place in Underhill.
-
Hah yeah that was one of the better AFDs. BTV does great work.
-
Love these midweek specials. It felt like it should out in the Greens this morning... lingering upslope and sun filtering through. We both had work to do but it's one of those winters where you have to take advantage.
-
Yeah I was skeptical this morning but it's been crushing here in the valley since noon. In Burlington now, 5 or 6" down.
