  1. My 9.25" of snow brings me up to 44" for the season. Not as much as Boston and most in SNE but at least I'm moving up on the AMWX snow board. This snow if just like all the "fake" snow you guys north of me get. The new pack is already down to 5 or 6" as it compacts, melts and sublimates. A glaciated snow cover would barely be dented on a day like today.
  2. Snow winding down to flurries 9". Going to be a very quick cleanup. This type of storm has less impact than an inch or two of sleety mix.
  3. "Exquisite champagne aggregates" That is great. 15.5F with moderate ECA falling 6"ish
  4. 1.5" yesterday. Everything white and refreshed. Only 36.5" of snow this season. I was below average and unless something very crazy happens I will not hit my average of 80". Upslope to the left of me nor'easters to the right (how does that song go?)
  5. These snow squalls are vicious. The one that went through here only lasted 5 or 10 minutes but it snowed about the hardest I have ever seen it. Tough to measure with a roaring wind and snow that was on the ground from a bit earlier today. Here are 2 pictures from the Nest Cam just before and during the squall. It was a wow! What would you say that visibility dropped to? Tomorrow I will fly the drone to get an exact distance to the edge of my stone wall.
  6. Wow just wow. Extreme snow squall. Very vicious and quick hitting. Probably the lowest vis that I have ever seen at my house.
  7. 19.3F Light snow Skies clouded up early this mornng. Light snow began an hour ago. Around 1/4" of an inch. Hopefully we can get a quick intense snow squall later.
  8. Phin, My max temp was 54F yesterday. Stayed around 50 to 52F last night. Like you I have lots of bare spots on south facing slopes but otherwise good. Do you think the downsloping wind off the mountains just across the valley to your south boost you are few degrees with cutter type systems?
  9. 7am 50.3F 8am 34.1 30% grass on my south exposed fields. Near 100% elsewhere
  10. Alex, get sleet up real quick or you will have a sheet of ice forever
  11. 53/41F No bare spots yet even on Central New England south slope.
  12. 1230pm 55/42F Looks like that is it for the sun. My pack is just so glaciated. Even with 18 more hours of warmth and dews I wonder how much I will be able to melt? About 6" left in south facing slopes, more in woods. For the last week a bunch of deer are just yarded up in the woods behind the house. Very hard for them to walk around with this type of snow. I hope I can melt enough off so some bare spots appear. Let them get some grazing in before it gets covered up again next week. (You can see one of my snowstakes down near the fence. Wide angle lens makes it appear crocked but it is not
  13. Congrats to you guys down there. I have not even paid attention to this storm. Just high and middle clouds with blue sky to the NW. My 35" winter continues up here with no storms in sight other than a warm cutter later. Solid 9" pack that I can walk that will be mostly gone by next weekend. The storm to my SE did give a nice sunset. If I can't post snow pics than I guess a sunset will have to do.
  14. Temps stayed around 40F all night. Snow stake down to 10" but no bare spots showing on even the steepest south slopes.
  15. Looks like you have a -15F or so night coming up. Enjoy!
  16. I, like you get roasted on a day like today with our south facing slope. 47.7F As we head towards spring the disparity between the south facing and north facing slopes increases. My brother lives in Aspen. With the high elevation and southern latitude the sun really melts the south side of the mountains. I notice it less in New England. My pack is so dense right now that I only lost a couple of inches today. 11" at the snow stake remains.
  17. Beat ya 47.7F (Maybe not as your post was 2 hours ago) We were down in Tilton yesterday and came back through Franklin. . Looking at the snow on the rooftops and banks we seem to have double what you had. Even with full sun and the torch all day the pack has only settled an inch or two. Still 11" at the snow stake
  18. More snow than I have this season, but still 12" of glacier otg.
  19. Showers came through here mid afternoon. Temp was 41F but quickly dropped to 36F with rain changing to a brief period of parachutes. Pack is down to 12" but with so much water content melting will be a slow process
  20. When Phin first moved up here last year we didn't have any snow until late in the fall. Growing up in Metro Baltimore I understood his anxiety. This is a much more typical C/NNE winter. Phin will still be having snowstorms 6 weeks from now. You do loose the anxiety and don't even pay attention to the 1 to 3" or 2-4" events.
  21. 25F light to moderate quick bursts of snow and in between snizzle. Around 1/2"
