Give me a link to post and I’ll embed it. I’ll try to find where the disconnect is. It definitely is an extra step.

You need to change the link before posting it. I do it in the notepad app. Paste the link in notes, change the X.com to Twitter.com, copy that new link and paste it in the forum.

Big lull now after the initial push of WAA. ~2” at the ski area cam and now dry slot flurries.

Light snow. 30/20

Ha, I think Mansfield is good right now I can’t imagine another 20” or so on top of this. Crazy.

Yeah this is the Mansfield coverage right now. It’s pretty nice out there. Another 6-12” would go a long way too. About a 10-12” net gain since Thanksgiving on about the same amount of reported snowfall.

Bottomed out at 6F. Clear skies and locally decent valley snow cover.

yeah, it’s not some deep layer WNW flow… but there has to be a westerly moisture feed/boundary creating lift as the WF slowly migrates north.

That lake effect/upslope connection looks good for your area. Just run this play and the west slopes of SVT can do well.

Half inch to an inch? That car top would probably tell the story. No matter what, that’s an early Dec look right there. It’s white.

That’s a winter vibe. Congrats.

Enjoying it while it’s here. Sounds like winter will be short by these posts. Last night’s standing wave dropped 4” on about 0.30” water. 5.5” depth.

I saw 30” in 72 hours?! Holy shit gotta be thigh deep?

Thanks, it was a fun morning. 9” in past 72 hours at the plots helped a lot. Upper Hayride and Centerline were real nice.

I don’t think so, maybe a dusting? 6” OTG here, got lucky from mesoscale snow. Very localized.

Back to 1/2-1” an hour bursts after a lull. The limiting factor is the duration of the bursts. There’s a bit of QPF in it, oddly clingy to objects… maximizing snow growth (aggregation). Snow depth is passing 6”. It’s a highly aesthetically pleasing snow. .NEAR TERM /THROUGH WEDNESDAY/... As of 913 PM EST Monday...Snow showers continue in the typical northwest flow upslope areas. These will continue for the rest of the night and even though the rates will generally be light, the longer duration will allow minor accumulations to occur in some areas. A persistent standing wave cloud in Stowe was able to put down a couple inches this evening in a very localized area, but the snowfall rates with that have been declining.

That NVT QPF at good snow growth temps… mountains be looking nice.

This is a pretty crazy CoCoRAHS report from NNY. Depth of 45.2" with a SWE of almost 4 inches?!

This thing just keeps firing. The mesoscale stuff around here is wild. It's like a couple square mile footprint. A couple inches so far on top of the old snow.

Ha, the irony is it’s not doing it at the mountain. You drive into it heading down into the village.

Just nuking snow, has to 1”/hr right now under the standing wave here, down wind of the summit. Massive flakes.

Yeah you’re right, I was thinking moisture entrained in the flow but it is deeper layer NW. Last night it seemed more westerly off Ontario. Theres been a nice standing wave in town fluffing out big flakes. Thing just sits there and fires downstream of Mansfield.

It’s likely off the Great Lakes. It’s just moisture entrained in the flow and upslope into the mountains.

Just dumping snow at times this morning. 4” at the base, 6” up top. Even in the valley getting moderate snow at 1/2 mile vis at times. METAR KMVL 021445Z AUTO 00000KT 1/2SM SN FZFG OVC013 M03/M04 A3006

We hope some of these aggregates come to fruition. Stake depth is at 13” at the picnic tables, hopefully we can nickel and dime some QPF in the next week.
