Heavy snow the past hour. Whitened right back up despite a warm-ish ground. Mountain picked up 4” at Lookout Plot and is likely over 5” at High Road Plot now as it was pacing an inch ahead through 3pm.

Lean into a joke once in a while… always so serious.

How many times have we disproven the warm ground doesn’t matter if it’s snowing steadily and hard? We’ll get May accums if it’s ripping 0.1”/hr water.

It literally just happened yesterday a couple counties north of him.

How did it easily accumulate just north of you yesterday during the daylight hours? The warm ground didn’t care… it snowed moderately to heavily.

Looks nice! Only a half inch here followed by some freezing mist.

Impressive DBZ in that core.

Cold day, snowpack wasn’t going anywhere on the hill. This evening it’s 13F up top and 17F in the base area. A decent cold airmass intrusion today.

It does look like salty residue but the fact that others near the ocean don't see that... I've seen a lot of snow melt but never seen a white residue. Anything around you that would put particulates in the air?

Like not a passing flurry? Nothing? That does seem hard to pull off at that latitude. Got one more week left.

Cant fail either.

10F and windy up here at Mtn Ops… 1F at top of the lifts. Wind chill -20. Hard pass.

Yeah you’re probably doing well on the west slope with this. We are tapering off after 2” or so at 1500ft and 3.5” at 3000ft. Heated plaza still on for Will/ORH.

Snowing and gusts to 50mph.

It’s been impressive. At elevation, or down in the Champlain Valley… a winter with a strong low level jet over the area, consistently.
