MaineJayhawk Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 Got probably a half-inch down here near my 'hood and it is covering the roads now (as opposed to my joke post in the other thread). Wonder how much we rake in - it's coming down pretty well. Vis around a mile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctsnowstorm628 Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 Up at 2k in Newark vt. Snow depth ~8" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted December 1, 2012 Author Share Posted December 1, 2012 Around a half inch in town today...still some flurries but that looks about it on radar. As expected, points east and south did a bit better with some 1-2" amounts. Snow depth in the yard has settled down to 4" from yesterday morning's high of 6".

powderfreak Posted December 1, 2012 Author Share Posted December 1, 2012 Up at 2k in Newark vt. Snow depth ~8" Nice... sounds about right. My 1,550ft snow depth has settled to 9.5", down from a high of 11.5-12" yesterday morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 Wasnt sure where to post this... November 2012 made it to the Top 10 Coolest Novembers for Bridgeport, CT. And broke the streak of 20 months above normal. Probably the southern New England thread and not the northern New England one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted December 1, 2012 Author Share Posted December 1, 2012 Some shots of a sheltered (wind-free) mini-hollow at around 2,000ft where there's 10-12" of snow on the ground. When those massive 1-inch diameter fluffy upslope dendrites fall in a wind-free environment they just pile up on everything... it looks like a wet snow but its not, total fluff. And to think the Mansfield Co-Op at 3,900ft recorded only 5 inches over a 48 hour period during this last event... I wonder where all this snow came from then? It must've only snowed below 3,900ft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamarack Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 Very light snow since about 10 AM has whitened the ground but not much else, maybe 0.1" of tiny snow grains. Temp remains in the upper teens, off a near-zero low overnight, though temp was about 10 at the 7 AM cocorahs time (clouds had arrived.) My wife found some slippery going in AUG where slower traffic had packed the snow, while 10 miles north in Vassalboro (I had a morning meeting there) it was blown off the road by the faster traffic on Rt 201. November avg was 30.70, -3.4 compared to my 15-yr avg and 3rd coldest, though only 0.25 milder than #1, in 2002. Now 2 of last 3 months were subnormal. Max....59 on the 12th Min.....5 on the 30th 0.84" precip, only18% of my avg and 1.53" below my previous Nov record. 2.5" snowfall, all but 0.1" coming on the 8th. I never had measurable snow OG at my 9 PM obs time, though I reported 2" OG at 7 AM on 11/8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted December 2, 2012 Author Share Posted December 2, 2012 Nothing happening this morning... it was 32F when I left my house at 750ft. As usual, the cold pocket is right at mid-mtn and that's historically the last spot to warm up in these SWFE. 3,600ft...32F 2,700ft...27F 1,500ft...31F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allenson Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Still clinging to <32 here this morning. 30F to be exact. Kind of a shame about things to come. I was getting used to a white landscape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamarack Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Fzdz here with temp about 24, 0.1" glaze and slippery walking - time for the wood ashes. Coastal front has reached the coast, with ROK at 46 and BHB 43. Next mildest is HUL at 34; don't know why they're 5-10F milder than the nearby stations.
