klw Posted March 19, 2013 Author Share Posted March 19, 2013 Wow the radar over NY state is really filling in quickly. http://www.meteo.psu.edu/~fxg1/WXTYPE/loop25ne.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 Got home at 4pm... here are a couple cell phone pics in the village at 750ft. 8.0" on the dot here and snow is picking up again. My 8-12" has now verified but I'd love to hit 10" double digits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klw Posted March 19, 2013 Author Share Posted March 19, 2013 BTV has updated its forecast map. Bumps totals in the NEK. The zoomed in version is the first one I thin I have seen with St. J progged as the jackpot. (oops I see Jay is higher) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 There was 8.8" at 1,500ft when I left the mountain at 3:30pm...called it 8-10" as the summit was running about an inch higher. The variance in elevation isn't all that great in this event, when some upslope snows can be different by like 3-4 inches with elevation, these synoptic snows are much more evenly distributed.

adk Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 Only difference elevation brought in this storm was with wind. I noticed significantly more wind affected snow above 2500ft than I did from 1500 to 2500. But that may have changed since this was an early morning observation.

Allenson Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 That was fun for a couple of hours. I've since tempered my meltdown...seems the really +SN came after the brightest echoes were moving away. Same thing happened here--brighter echos moved off to the east and the snow intensity actually picked up. Anyway, we're in a bonefide lull now. Up to 8.0" and as others said, we'll see what the stuff in NY has in store for later on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hvysnow79 Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 Just 4.3" here, but roads certainly iced up big time with that heavier band that came through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 I'm impressed with this resurgence in snowfall... radar lighting up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctsnowstorm628 Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 BOOM. Wow NEK ftw. Last time you'll ever hear me say that. Deform band gonna set up soon for a lot of Northern and eastern VT. I hit that hard the last couple days. 7" here so far...probably gonna end up closer to 10". NWS saying 12-13". Major win. Also, note the screw zone again near KRUT. Nice.

j24vt Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 Added 5.0" as of 5pm for a storm total of 8.7" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eekuasepinniW Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Been under that batch of moderate looking snow on radar for a while now... even waited for it to get comfortably east of here. It's a flop...the snizzle intensity hasn't changed. I should never look at the radar once the main precip shield moves out... no matter what it shows redeveloping, it's nothing but disappointment far more often than not.

J.Spin Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Event totals: 9.7” Snow/0.83” L.E. We headed to Stowe today, and not surprisingly, the turns were great. When we left at the end of the day, I was generally getting consistent measurements of 12-13” for snow depth on the terrain of the Mountain Triple – although that sounds a bit higher than what PF reported. A great day to be out on the mountain; of course there’s nothing like midweek at Stowe, especially when it’s dumping. A few shots from today are below: We arrived home to find 5.9” of snow from today’s activity, so at least around here it doesn’t look like there were too many issues with the valleys being able to accumulate snow during the day. In the latest BTV advisories, I see that some warnings have disappeared from off to the south, and indeed there are some notable differences in the latest storm total snow forecast map – the numbers seem to have gone down in the Adirondacks: I don’t think there’s going to be any trouble reaching the 10-14” total that they’ve got for us on the latest map, especially since we’re passing a foot as of 9:00 P.M. and there’s still a steady snow out there. This event has definitely been very helpful in making up on the dearth of season snowfall, bringing the season total back up above 85% of average. North to south listing of available snowfall totals from the Vermont ski areas with afternoon updates are below – generally 10-12” at the northern areas and 12-15” at the southern areas as of closing: Jay Peak: 10” Smuggler’s Notch: 12” Stowe: 10” Bolton Valley: 10” Mad River Glen: 12” Sugarbush: 7” Pico: 11” Killington: 11” Okemo: 12” Magic Mountain: 15” Stratton: 13” Mount Snow: 14” Details from the 5:00 P.M. Waterbury observations are below: New Snow: 5.9 inches New Liquid: 0.48 inches Snow/Water Ratio: 12.3 Snow Density: 8.1% H2O Temperature: 32.4 F Sky: Moderate Snow (1-5 mm flakes) Snow at the stake: 9.0 inches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ctsnowstorm628 Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 7.5" so far. Seems like I'm the low man on the VT totem pole. We are getting dumped on here. Perfect non shadowed flow. Measured 8.8" a minute ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.Spin Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Event totals: 12.9” Snow/0.93” L.E. The snowfall has been running at a bit more than ½”/hr over the 6 hours leading up to 11:00 P.M., with another 0.4” down as of midnight. The snow has definitely dried out to a more upslope-style consistency. Details from the 11:00 P.M. Waterbury observations are below: New Snow: 3.2 inches New Liquid: 0.10 inches Snow/Water Ratio: 32.0 Snow Density: 3.1% H2O Temperature: 28.9 F Sky: Moderate Snow (2-12 mm flakes) Snow at the stake: 12.0 inches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allenson Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 12" on the nose here so far for the event and it's still snowing this morning, albeit lightly. 0.88" of water and the snowdepth is now up to a seasonal high of 22". 92.2" on the year now. Maybe 100" isn't out of the question. The stuff that fell last night is very fluffy and stacked up, so expecting a fair bit of settling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 There is right around a fresh foot on the ground this morning in town. Thats just one storm total measurement. Good forecast for here ctsnowstorm Going skiing now. Word is our snow report may be a bit low with 11-14" on the mountain but that's how I like it haha.

J.Spin Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Event totals: 13.9” Snow/0.98” L.E. Another inch of snow fell overnight, and there were still flurries falling during this morning’s observations. The point forecast here suggests that “Powder Week” continues: Details from the 6:00 A.M. Waterbury observations are below: New Snow: 1.0 inches New Liquid: 0.05 inches Snow/Water Ratio: 20.0 Snow Density: 5.0% H2O Temperature: 24.1 F Sky: Mostly Cloudy, Flurries (1-2 mm flakes) Snow at the stake: 12.5 inches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hvysnow79 Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 8.2" as of 0600 with some light snow falling when I left for work. Looks like maybe around the same maybe a bit less down here in the Hanover/Lebanon area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hvysnow79 Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Man, this thing just doesn't want to quit. Steady, accumuating snows still falling..... There are breaks in the clouds down here, but I did notice that the Lake Morey Cam looks like it is still going pretty good. Trying to sweet talk the wife to take a measurement after it stops...we will see how that goes . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see some sun from Brookfield, Berlin (VT), Wells River and Hanover and yet it's snowing here and yep, the Morey cam shows the same. Lightening now though, as I type, lol.

klw Posted March 20, 2013 Author Share Posted March 20, 2013 We got another 4 inches overnight in Peacham to bring our total to 11.5 inches as of 7:30 this morning. Up to 7:45 am yesterday- 3.2 7:45 to 5:45 pm- 4.3 5:45 p to 7:30 am- 4 total; 11.5 It is snowing lightly here in St. J at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamarack Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Flakes in the air here in AUG, with the sun shining thru thin clouds. Finished with 12.5" on 1.09" LE, last few inches much higher ratio, biggest storm of the year. Up to 23" at the stake, also highest so far, though I don't expect to see it any deeper. Even if Monday's storm slid far enough north to dump a few inches, settling and March sun will probably have my depth down in the 16-18" range by then. Would need warning-level snow to get to 100, I think, as it's kinda late for nearly a foot in piecemeal events. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allenson Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 This morning's persistent light snow has finally stopped and we're getting breaks of sunshine--very nice out. Picked up another 0.9", so 12.9" should do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctsnowstorm628 Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 10.5" total here. Basically hit the upper ranges of my forecast, but this def overperformed in VT. Finally. PS- Burke got 15"! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
