powderfreak Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Snowy scene today from the recent light snowfalls. Small tastes of winter this year; gotta enjoy the little scenes this season. No big massive caking dumps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxeyeNH Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Noticed the ice fisherman were pulling the bob houses off Newfound Lake today. Usually that happens around April 1. Looks like a good week to continue melting the snowpack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kulaginman Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Hey everyone! I haven't posted in this thread in a very long time, but I do peek in here on a fairly regular basis. I live in Norwood MA but I pretty much spend every weekend either skiing or hiking in the mountains of northern New England, and the reports you guys provide are extremely helpful in terms of knowing what to expect! You guys really do a fantastic job. I'm currently working on hiking all of New Hampshire's 4,000-footers in the winter. I've summited all 48 at different times of the year, but now I'm trying to nail each one exclusively during the winter season. Yesterday I attempted to hike Mount Monroe and Mount Eisenhower, but got turned around at Lake of the Clouds Hut due to extremely poor visibility and deep snow drifts that made it next to impossible to find/follow the trail. At any rate, I thought I'd share this picture with you. This is the Lake of the Clouds Hut which is at an elevation of 5050' in the col between Mount Washington and Mount Monroe. I was blown away by the amount of snow up there, considering the kind of winter it has been... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lava Rock Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Awesome! Whole different world up there. I'm always amazed at the weather. Imagine the drifts last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaineJayhawk Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Very cool, kulaginman! A different world indeed ... hard to believe that's only like 50 miles from me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 That's an awesome accomplishment Kulaginman! And good luck on the goal of doing them all in the winter. That's impressive stuff... over 4,000ft even in a warm winter like this one is no walk in the park. High winds, whiteouts, fog, ice... gnarly stuff.

powderfreak Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Some photos from today... bluebird this morning and great sunrise. I thought I was originally posting these in this thread, but turns out I was in the February Banter thread. I tend to do that a lot on here now... its all the same posters and I lose track of which thread I'm reading, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was blown away by the amount of snow up there, considering the kind of winter it has been... Thats quite an impressive feat!! As a climber myself, i must say that I only tried to summit the rockpile once in winter and was turned away as well! I never tried it a second time and stick to summer and fall treks! I an see the tops of all those peaks from my deck looking south-east, and even through my telescope at 28 miles away, I had no idea how much snow was up there!! Great pics,.. I would love to see more if you would share them with us! Do you post on the MW web site?? Id love to see your ollection of pics!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Beautiful morning here in northern VT... the view from BTV towards Mansfield's western side. I just watched the eastern side turn pink and red with alpenglow from the office here while drinking coffee. Nice to stand outside in the dead calm with steam rising out of a mug, watching the mountain turn all sorts of colors... and then to think we get paid for this.

tamarack Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 It's good to see those snow pics, especially as I look out my office window at brown grass and a few ice patches here in AUG. (The woods here still have most ground white.) Down to about 5 IMBY this AM; won't see that again for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doug1991 Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Any thoughts on what will happen in the Millinocket area Friday? Think they are far enough north for snow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allenson Posted February 21, 2012 Author Share Posted February 21, 2012 Well, at least a couple chilly mornings lately--had a 9F yesterday and an 8F this morning. Actually went for a backcountry ski on Sunday. It was a little crusty but surprisingly not too bad. The state of the snow here in the Corinth hills....not deep but durable as all hell: Beautiful this morning with some nice hoarfrost in the trees: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snow Bow Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Haven't been paying much attention to snow chances late but I just checked the zone forecast and it has snow in my forecast tonight, up to an inch overnight. Then light accumulation possible Thursday night, kind of nice to see in the forecast even though much might not come of it. Probably will end up only being 2 more T's added to the 6 or 7 here this month but at least there's a chance. 38.5 and with the wind it actually feels cold, this winter has definitely altered the perception of what is cold.

Really was not paying attention, Lucky I got home just in time I bet 93 is a mess without any salt from prev storms! its nice to see snow falling isn't it? I hadn't been paying attention lately either. A little less here about .2 on spots of driveway that don't get much sun and the lawn. Crazy just how bad this years been that im excited for a fifth of an inch. So I guess this null and voids the chance of a snowness feb. Not really a stat I was looking to put in the records anyways.

wxeyeNH Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 29.1F here 30dbz stuff off to the SW heading this way I dropped from 33 something to my current 28.7F very quickly and its still coming down at a good clip. Really didn't pay attention to tonights weather, thought a few flurries or sprinkles and that would be it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nzucker Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Biggest snow of the month? Have .2 to .3 here but temp is 33.5 Sad to say this is the biggest....I'm not surprised your temperature is a little warmer as you're lower elevation and probably more exposed to southerly flow.
