HoarfrostHubb Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Either the first week or second week. I'll do. Just remember, April 8 is Easter, so that might affect some peeps... Works for me I think, though. Hopefully, ORH will still be shoveling out the city Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 What's up with all the convective snow squalls popping up all over the place. Yeah pretty impressive at times. Up at the mountain its been snowing all day, but down here in town its been light flurries except for one solid squall that moved through and put down an inch or so in about 15 minutes. We were right at 31-32F so the snow plastered to everything. One of those things where one side of the trees are all white top-to-bottom and nothing on the other side. This is from around 775ft in Stowe village... looked dreary this morning after yesterday afternoon's warmth and sun, but back to winter. Gotta love how squalls roll off the mountains and then just plaster everything in 15 minutes then roll back out. Its like flipping a switch back to winter after all the snow fell off the trees yesterday afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan11 Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Yeah I had about an hour of snow showers or varying intensities as that trough came through. Nothing could really stick with the sun angle and temps in the mid 30's. but always nice to see flakes. What's up with all the convective snow squalls popping up all over the place.

ctsnowstorm628 Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Wow, does d5 on look like a total torch...holy crap. Haven't looked at anything since I left for the NESC Friday, but damn is it warm. Most of my 12"+ is gone by d10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Nice shots, Blizz... enjoy it. That's enough snow on the ground to get the wintery appeal... however even upper 40s and low 50s here by Wed/Thurs. I gotta admit, yesterday afternoon's sunshine and 45F felt real nice. Though so did today's snow squalls. Such a tough call this time of year, haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of my 12"+ is gone by d10. I think you'll be surprised at how long that snow sticks around. I know I always am each spring. Sure south facing and hill tops will go bare quickly, but the hollows and nooks and crannies of the terrain can hold the stuff for a surprisingly long time east of the Spine.

It's icepack now..as we had quite a bit of zr from the storm end of week and then on Friday nite we had some more..so it will take some torching sun to fully melt it..but by Thurs it'll be gone, Amazing though what wet snow and then ice will due to snowpack hanging around vs that powder nonsense that vaporizes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherMA Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 There's about 4-6" of snow pack left here. It will torch day to day from now till Thursday and by Friday they'll be no sign that it was here. But even tomorrow we'll lose a decent amount with the March sun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure south facing and hill tops will go bare quickly, but the hollows and nooks and crannies of the terrain can hold the stuff for a surprisingly long time east of the Spine. Yeah I know, but there are bare spots on 91 up to St. J here in the valley. Though, here at LSC, we still have 12" at the stake with maybe 7-8" in the sun. Thats including our fresh 2.5" too. 3/8 looks warm even up this way PF...even BTV is going 48F here at 900ft and 44F at 3200ft and I think thats conservative 5 days out.

But most of it will be lost Wednesday I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah... the warmth though completely depends on dew points for snow melt. If its 50/17 then surprisingly little damage gets done. If its 50/40 then you are hemorrhaging snow. I haven't looked too closely but nights look relatively chilly for how warm the days get, so it should be a somewhat dry heat. If the afternoons are seeing 30% RH (or even less in the mountain valleys), then the snow will stick around for a bit... especially if nights are getting well down below freezing.
