Still about 80% snow cover in my hood except for my south facing fields. Deer are loving their first tastes of grass in months. 30 to 35 out there right now. Here is a short clip from the cam https://video.nest.com/clip/e5e3798575b04e3ea33c4900604316cc.mp4

Rain has come to an end. Models were right on. .15" Snowcover is still around 80% in my hood with the exception of our south facing fields. 30-35 deer are around the house at the moment. Hard to count as so many are running around. Quick webcam clip I just made https://video.nest.com/clip/e5e3798575b04e3ea33c4900604316cc.mp4

39.6/37F Light rain up here. Maybe we can score a few flakes later. 80% snow cover remains

5F snow flurries and blowing snow Had some nice squalls last night. Everything is white again. Today is the 28th anniversary of the east coast Super Storm. I remember it well. Loaded up my Golden Retriever in Boston got in the truck and came up here to enjoy it.

Speaking of heavy snow squalls and low visibility I see Denver is reporting .1 of a mile in SN+. Looking at the downtown webcam that is sure some heavy snow

Yesterday the first patches of grass appeared. Today's sun and 35F helped the melt to continue. The lawn mowing crew of 15 have arrived too. They usually hit our fields first with the south exposure.

I have posted a few times that I have not had more than 3.5" since Dec 17th. I am sure that has never happened before since I bought the house in 1989. I guess the good thing for you Phin is that even without any good synoptic storms this winter you have had a constant snow cover. Consider this a very low bar winter for you. It can only be better in future years even with cutters, the back side will always re whiten you up there.

Over achiever in temperature this afternoon. 52 under searing March sun. First open grass patches on the south slopes. About 6" at the snow stake on level ground. My pond is coming up but it started out completely dry at the end of fall. Usually it will top off each spring but there is not a lot of snow left to melt. Need more qpf to bring the water table back up.

UP to 47F Cold air always wins here

42.6F at almost 11am I was hoping for a few patches of grass on my steep south slopes but don't think it's going to happen.

Lots of snow melt occurring today but with a frozen ground I assume most is just running off into rivers and streams. After a dry fall we have not had a lot of precipitation this winter. I hope this changes soon. Here is a map of % of normal precipitation over the last 90 days. Another dry week coming up.

Wednesday afternoon. Still deep snow on south slopes. Depth down to 10" sunny areas. As we know in NNE, it's way too early to call in spring. 12Z GFS shows colder weather incoming with snow threats later next week.

My high was 45.6F, first 45F of 2021. Did errands without a jacket. Felt so warm. With the warmth and sunshine the snowpack only decreased about 1/2" to 10.5"

I'm at 60" which is somewhat behind what I should be. It has been boring for quite a stretch. The thing that stands out the most is not one storm above 3.5" this entire winter except the 24" in 12 hours on Dec 17th. Last summer was drought. I hope we don't go right back into one. Not going to be a lot of runoff this spring unless we get some synoptic storms.

Just busted into the warm air. Went from 26 to 38F in a little more than 1 hour. Frickin deer are eating the bark off the baby apple trees. They have deer fencing but the 11" of pack is so hard they walk on top and can reach branches.

Beautiful morning in the NH foothills. Bright sun is making it feel, well not as cold... Sorry to everyone on the other side of the mountains stuck in clouds. This is when I enjoy living on my side. Cloudy spring weather north of me and days and days of sunshine here. Snowpack is at 11" and it has a lot of water in it. I am hoping that 3 or 4 days of warm weather at least melt some bare spots on my southern slopes. Last night 17 deer wandered around looking for anything to eat but it's hard digging through glaciated snow

The fun starts next week. Mud season. Every year is so different. It was dry this fall so the moisture was not deep but then we got the Grinch storm but don't know how much moisture got down deep before freeze up. Here is a video of my road leading up to my house a couple of years ago.

Nice standing wave cloud presentation this morning

My hero growing up!

We received 2" of snow with last nights squalls. Basically ground blizzard conditions on the south side of Newfound Lake with that snow blowing. The lake is orientated NNW to SSE so the wind really howled at the foot of the lake creating zero visibility in places.

I received 2" of snow with the squalls last night. 2F outside with ground blizzard conditions at times at my altitude with the blowing powder. My anometer is sheltered so high gust only 33mph

I received 2" in heavy snow squalls last evening. Exactly as the GFS and Euro predicted my low was 0F around sunrise. Nice roar in the trees with lots of blowing snow after the squalls.

17F S++ Vis couple of hundred feet. Hard to estimate but 1/2"? in past 15 minutes?

Relentless howling in the trees. 22F Had some light to moderate squalls over the past couple hours but looks like an organized line moving almost due south towards me.

I know. I am eating my popcorn and watching your show! Should be my turn in another 30 or 45 minutes
