CardinalWinds Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Solid burst came through here earlier...solid coating on the ground. Just spits and fits now, though. Radar looks...unimpressive. Half an hour of sunshine would evaporate this stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamarack Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Final flakes drifting by now, as the sun tries to break thru. About 0.8", underperformed by an inch or two, but the one before it overperformed by 8-10". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.Spin Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Event totals: 0.5” Snow/0.04” L.E. I was up at the mountain a lot of the day, so I don’t know the intensity with which it fell, but there was a half inch of new snow down at the house when we stopped in around midday. Details from the 1:00 P.M. Waterbury observations: New Snow: 0.5 inches New Liquid: 0.04 inches Snow/Water Ratio: 12.5 Snow Density: 8.0% H2O Temperature: 34.0 F Sky: Flurries Snow at the stake: 18.5 inches Although this was a fairly minor storm in terms of accumulation, it is notable in one respect – it marks the 54th accumulating storm of the season for this location, and it’s the first time that number has been reached since I’ve been tracking snowfall here. So, this season now holds the top spot in that category, besting 2007-2008. Despite the snowfall that has been persistently lagging behind average pace, and remains that way presently, this season has certainly been active and it was have that as at least one feather in its cap. Up at the mountain there was some impressive snowfall at times today. In the morning there were a few bouts of reasonably robust snowfall amidst a lot of showery periods, but the heaviest stuff was witnessed when I went back up for a few runs in the afternoon. At one point, visibility was down to around 100 feet at the Vista Summit – I was roughly 100-200 feet away from the patrol hut there, and it was entirely invisible at times. Unfortunately there’s not much point in getting an image of the building when it’s totally invisible, because all you see is white, so I grabbed a shot of one of the periods when it was on the verge of disappearing and I’ve added that in the images from today below. The bursts of heavy snow didn’t last so long that they really meant massive accumulations, but I’d say the mountain picked up 1-2 inches of new, and indeed that’s what the snow report is saying this evening. Fortunately, there wasn’t a huge need for new powder today because most of the mountain hadn’t been skied due to yesterday’s wind holds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 We will be around 6 feet on the month, maybe even over it at 3,000ft when I get up there, lol. It just keeps snowing. By far the best month of the winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Sb reporting another 5" overnight and it's dumping now. Ok I have to ask... how'd they get 5" overnight and 0" at the base? Curiosity is really starting to get the best of me with 18" at the summit and 3" at the base in the last 3 days. Was it raining or something?

I'm still at the house and we have about a half inch here. I'll see what the deal is when I get up top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I talked to John over there at SB...and it was what I was thinking...the base measurement is out in the wind-swept area so its probably not indicative of what's falling. The upper mountain spots are more protected. That would be the only way to explain it as I don't doubt the higher amounts as they fit with other area reports. But the wide range between base and summit is something that you wouldn't normally see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hitman Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Well windswept or not, there is no more than an inch at 1650' at my house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allenson Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Opened my eyes this morning to quite a blitz of snow outside. Short-lived though. 1.1" for a 24 hour total. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.Spin Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Event totals: 1.3” Snow/0.07” L.E. We received another fluffy 0.8” overnight from the back side of this storm, with additional light snow falling this morning that has provided some further accumulation. Details from the 7:00 A.M. Waterbury observations: New Snow: 0.8 inches New Liquid: 0.03 inches Snow/Water Ratio: 26.7 Snow Density: 3.8% H2O Temperature: 24.4 F Sky: Light Snow (2-10 mm flakes) Snow at the stake: 18.5 inches The north to south listing of available storm totals from the Vermont ski areas are listed below for this latest storm, with the larger accumulations in the northern half of the state as anticipated with the low pressure track: Jay Peak: 8” Burke: 3” Smuggler’s Notch: 6” Stowe: 5” Bolton Valley: 5” Sugarbush: 8” Pico: 3” Killington: 3” Okemo: 0” Bromley: 1” Magic Mountain: 1” Stratton: 2” Mount Snow: 0” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Right around 6" at 3,000ft at 8:30am. Totals are pretty solid with 20" in the past 72 hours, and 24" past 7 days, and I believe 68" since March 1st. There is an obscene amount of snow in the higher elevations, I would think the stake would be near 90" now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mreaves Posted March 23, 2014 Author Share Posted March 23, 2014 2" on the car this morning. I-89 was crappy all the way to Waterbury this morning. Looks like about half the amount of snow on the ground here in St. Albans than at home in Barre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherMA Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Holy sh*t there is a lot of snow up here. And the gradient was insane. Nothing in concord gradually to like 25+" still on campus, and probably more away from campus. Crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
