eekuasepinniW Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Lower 30's and frost mentioned in the forecast. If the lake wasn't still 71, I'd be freaking out. Probably still going to whine a lot the next few days, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 The legit cold front is through here...winds are picking up (18mph) and it's down to 53.3F. I've missed how airmasses like these feel...refreshing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mreaves Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Did any of the VT guys catch the news on WCAX tonight? They interviewed a guy in Stowe about the damage he suffered in the flood. I remembered that j24 had similar damage and was wondering if that was him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxeyeNH Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 47.7F with a good breeze. House cooling off quick. Looks like we will have to light the woodstove tomorrow AM. Long 7 months of burning ahead! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hvysnow79 Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Much appreciated. Most other bookmarks you can find by searching online... these little nuggets are very hard to find though without help. No problem and I hear ya, I can't believe how many great links I now have because of this site. I also think a great idea to one place where everyone can share what links they have.

J.Spin Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 I just checked in at the BTV NWS site, and not surprisingly with tonight’s anticipated low temperatures, the entire state is under freeze warnings or frost advisories. I’ve added some of their latest graphics below. Assuming we run similarly to MPV and MVL climatology at our location, this would certainly be on the early side of average (10th to 25th percentile) based on BTV’s Seasonal First 32 F Temperature plot shown by Powderfreak yesterday. Our actual point forecast is currently calling for a low of 33 F, and we usually don’t quite hit the number they suggest at our location (perhaps because we are right down by the Winooski), so I’d be surprised if we got too much frost. It’s certainly a sign of the changing seasons to see so much blue on the BTV advisories map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 43F/38F here too Dendrite... low was 39F last night. My first official 39F of the season. It looks like we cleared out briefly and dropped to 39F just after midnight last night, but thick clouds are back and the temp came back up. Summit is 32F, so I'm on the lookout for rime. Can't see anything thanks to a low ceiling right now... orographic looking clouds billowing off the Spine. Hopefully they lift to give a view of the ridgeline. 23F on MWN!!

Allenson Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Definitely liking the feel of this airmass myself--very refreshing. 0.28" yesterday and down into the low 40s this morning. Might be frosty by tomorrow morning at the house....we'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

klw Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 42.4 was the low last night. I had covered the vegetables just in case but we in turned out just to be a good trial run for the tarps. The wind managed to take two of the tarps off enough that they would have been useless. Not a huge concern though as the wind should be less of an issue the next couple of nights. What will be interesting is the observatory across the road from me has a weather station that has just come online and is up on weatherunderground. I now can track the accuracy of my temps a little more as I have always felt my thermometer runs about 2 degrees warm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattlacroix4 Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Finally, 10 AM Mount Washington reported light snow. I have been watching radar returns all morning, waiting. Offically a change of seasons! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxeyeNH Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Coles Pond Vermont is 38F at 10am. Looks like trees are really begining to change up at 2000 feet. Webcam should look very different tomorrow, those gardens are not going to fair well tonight. I see its snowing on MWN. On their webcam site they changed the ravine view. The ravine view is taken from a cam on top of Wildcat and now you can see the ground in front of the cam. Its a great referance to see if its snowing at 4000 feet or if it is sticking on the ground. This morning there apprears to be no rime at that level. Gene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamarack Posted September 16, 2011 Author Share Posted September 16, 2011 Had 0.44" at my place yesterday, but none of the crackling-good thunder I heard in AUG - the jackpot appears to be Dresden, 15 miles south of AUG, with 1.7". Down to 40 or a tad below this morning, and I'm stripping the garden this afternoon, except for the two upside-down tomatos which will sleep inside the next two nights - hope the woodstove doesn't dry them out too much. Our church teen group is climbing Tumbledown Mt (15 miles NW of Farmington, 3,068') tomorrow. I'm glad (and they should be, too) it's not today, because it's probably about 40 up there right now with winds gusting 40 as well. They ought to have 100+ mile visibility tomorrow, MWN snowcap to blue water. Some spots of color, too - the early stress-related changes are promisingly (is that a word?) bright.

Allenson Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 I'll have a look at Moosilauke (4810') this afternoon on my ride home--if the summit is cleared off, might see some rime there too.... I had covered the vegetables just in case but we in turned out just to be a good trial run for the tarps. Ayup, I'll be coverin' things up tonight myself. Didn't bother though last night as it was cloudy, drizzly & breezy when I hit the sack. The wife is out of town and called this morning with explicit orders to cover the garden, lol. Aye-aye, hun!

wxeyeNH Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 As of noon 32F seems to be around 3800 feet. Summit of Waterville Valley is reporting 32F and that is what is also being reported on autoroad. Top of Wildcat seems to be getting showers of rain or snow can't tell but not sticking at that elevation at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendrite Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 56.5F right now off of a high of 59.3F...the first 50s for highs this season. Both sets of MOS have 32F for CON tomorrow morning and 36F for LCI. With the high sitting right over us around sunrise I should decouple enough to fall somewhere between those two. I'll guess I end up with a low of 34F while the bottom of the hill is a frosty 32F. Nice to see the snow on Cannon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
