powderfreak Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 12z NAM and EC are snowy here tomorrow morning. Almost 0.50" QPF in the form of wet snow for MBY. Maybe a couple inches can accumulate out of it? Yeah dude, this could at least be interesting for a lot of the interior of CNE and NNE. This airmass is very dry (widespread <30% RH with Tds in the mid teens across VT right now) and if enough precip can get in here by 9am I could see some brief accumulations outside of the lower valleys. Like you said earlier too bad its not 6 hours earlier... then it'd be game time. At any rate, its something somewhat interesting to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Central/Northern Greens are going to get solid accumulations tomorrow. Perhaps the high terrain of the 'Dacks as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 41.6/9.2...there's an outside shot for a daily max tomorrow in the 30s. Some snow to start by mid morning and then cold, raw, and wet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absurd Td for late April! Berlin NH is at 37/22. Are you sure that's correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's low, but it happens here in NH sometimes this time of year. C/S NH had some very dry air mix down to the surface today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 As for the snow tomorrow....the 00z NAM is a bit of a fail. Probably some flakes to start, but then mixing with RA/PL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.Spin Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 Here's a couple web cam views from today... the first one is from around 12pm when the sun was out, the second one is from 5pm after clouds rolled in. It is such a bummer that people lose interest in skiing at this time of year, because the ski area could probably operate for another 2-3 weeks unless we get a prolonged torch. I had dinner at The Shed with a couple of colleagues on Tuesday, and went for a run on Spruce ahead of time, so I added a couple of additional Tuesday images from my Stowe trip below. It’s nice that even the low-elevation, south-facing terrain of Spruce is covered, so there are so many options for turns. Mansfield was looking really nice, even before the additional snow that came in this week. All the precipitation I saw yesterday in Burlington was snow, and it was frequent, but there was never any accumulation. My wife was home and said that we also had a good bit of snow at the house yesterday, but never any accumulation, even on the old snow that is left in the yard.

Logan11 Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 Funny that you should mention The Shed. We go there with our hike club most years on our VT weekend. Six months till that weekend and usually my first glimpse of snow (at least in the air) in the mountains. Though last year they had that big dump on Mansfield early and the guys encountered over a foot on there. That's a nice long season this year from first to last (not yet) snowfall.

Allenson Posted April 23, 2011 Author Share Posted April 23, 2011 Great pics, border....! And no, not the last snow of the season! Snowing here at least this morning, at an impressive clip to boot. A solid 1/4" out there--ground's covered, trees are whitening. I'll do my obs and take some pics shortly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.Spin Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 The precipitation here is a mixture of rain and snow, but thus far there’s no accumulation to report down at this elevation. I can see that the snow looks a bit more intense a few hundred feet up in the hills, but I can’t quite make out where the accumulating snow line is in this area due to the clouds; I’d say it’s somewhere above the 1,000’ level though.

powderfreak Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 All wet snow so far...but I've only been up since around 615am. It was 34F at my place at 800ft... and now I'm at work on a property that ranges from 950ft to 1,150ft. Its 33F here and wet snow is sticking to mulch, old snow, and the roof. Massive flakes.

wxeyeNH Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 light snow 32.8F DP 30.5F coating so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allenson Posted April 23, 2011 Author Share Posted April 23, 2011 OK, measured 0.3" at 7am with 0.05" of liquid. More has fallen since then and I'd say we're at 1/2" so far. Heh. Looking down into the back yard. You can see the residual old snow down there and fresh stuff on what was bare ground: And out in the field: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allenson Posted April 23, 2011 Author Share Posted April 23, 2011 Check that--closing in on a solid inch now. I started the day 118.9". Can I hear a 120"? And to think I put the snow shovels away yesterday... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendrite Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 34F with some very light snow...nothing sticking here. There's probably a little rain mixed in too. Looks impressive on your cam this morning Gene. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 This is awesome. Everything's white and caked... half inch to an inch at 950ft. Even some accums on a paved parking lot. Still dumping. Winter continues! Much different even a few miles down the road at Alpine Mart. From Topnotch to the Matterhorn on 108 snow is really starting to accumulate.

Allenson Posted April 23, 2011 Author Share Posted April 23, 2011 1.25" new here this AM, hope you hit the 10' mark. Nice. Just what you like, eh?

eekuasepinniW Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 I'm going to throw a hissyfit complete with flailing arms and foot stomping if it doesn't warm up and start acting like spring soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 It looks like more than it is... measured 0.6" on top of the car. Still snowing and caking so at least its white out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 33.1F and snowing pretty hard...close to moderate (1/2SM at Sanbornton). The ground is starting to get that white look on the grass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah....it's pretty close to moderate snow now. I have 32.7F. Everything is covered now except the roads. I'll only end up with a couple tenths of an inch, but cool nonetheless. It's better than a cold rain.For those sick of the snow it will be in the 60s tomorrow for Easter anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxeyeNH Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 32.7F light snow about 1/2" so far. Just went down to Bristol. Amazing how a couple of hundred feet makes the difference of what is sticking and what is not! Nothing sticking 300 feet below me although by the time I came back it looked like the snow line was slowly lowering. Wonder if the stuff in Vermont will make it here before we turn over?

Hopefully those bright echoes gradually weaken (change from a RA/PL look to a SN look) as it moves this way. The 12z NAM has it snowing here through 11am. By 2pm my sounding is liquid up to 700mb and all of us are done with the snow. Enjoy the last couple hours of likely the last snow of the season. 32.5F now...the low for the day.
