MainePhotog Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Ran into heavy snow squall on way home from work. An hour and a half later and I have 1'' of new snow here at home. Temp dropped like rock. Currently 29 F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamarack Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Saw flakes on Mile Hill on the way home, but none at my place. 11" at the stake and the woods remain white, though not all the fields. However, there's probably lots of water/slush on the trails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allenson Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 It is about freakin' time for some powder turns... lol, a great powder freak surprise out there. God I love skiing powder, haha.

ctsnowstorm628 Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 If you live in any typical downslope region, FORGET about Tuesday-Wednesday. Any redevelopment along the coast will kill like 80% of populated areas in VT and central/northern NH. Classic SE flow per 0z Euro all the way up to 800mb. Foooooorget it. Give me summer.

LOL you are losing it man...ECM looked fine on wunderground. Maybe dryslot has the QPF values but of course Dendrite-Maine foothills would do the best but I we aren't getting shut out like you seem to think. We did much better QPF wise in that last storm than models were showing with the huge hole over all of N/CVT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it will...so will the GFS and meso models. Depends on exact flow, strength, inversion level, etc to how widespread down sloping is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We won't be shut out lol...It'll be a normal storm where eastern slopes of the Greens probably see 6-10" while the NEK gets 2-6" or something. With a deep SE flow though, seriously forget it around these parts haha. It's a good track for most of NNE per 0z Euro, but nothing really special. Even on 12/27 when many saw 10-15" the NEK got 5-7". And in late March that's meh to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allenson Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Classic SE flow per 0z Euro That's a local specialty here. I'm taking next week off from work and hoping to get some skiing in before it's all done. Let's do this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.Spin Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Ill take 12/27 again, thank you very much. Indeed, that was the largest storm of the season so far at our location with 15.5”, and the ski areas topped out at over two feet. Most folks would be happy with a result like that again.

I got 7" from that 12/27 storm too (forecast was 14-18"), and have been fringed or missed by all the big storms despite a fairly respectable snow total. Still too far away for real excitement, but this one might have my area in/near the sweet spot, so I'm not wanting to wave it off. Aren't we all a bit MBY-centric?

powderfreak Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 It is really coming down out there on the Mountain Road/RT 108. Everything is rapidly turning fresh white including the trees. These flakes are the size of quarters and very fluffy. Radar is not doing this justice here but it must be blowing slightly east on westerly flow aloft. Easily a quick 1/4" so far here and it looks like the ski resort is doing well as visibility is quite low if you can't see the slopes of Mansfield across the road.

powderfreak Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Picked up around an inch of snow in 20 minutes. Radar didn't do that justice. Tapering off to light snow now but it was snowing clumps there for a while. Edit... 0.8" for that burst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klw Posted March 15, 2013 Author Share Posted March 15, 2013 Steady light snow for the past 1 1/2 hours here in St. J. Its whitening the grass and the dry dirt a little though more so outside the town and up a couple hundred feet. Nice evening for a run unlike that gale yesterday.
