J.Spin Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 snow down to the base at Smuggs. Thanks ono, I was just thinking of asking PF for an update on how low the snow level had reached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Thanks ono, I was just thinking of asking PF for an update on how low the snow level had reached. I'm back at home, just light rain here. But I see its 34F at the base now so I'd assume there's flakes making it down there as that's the temperature the upper mountain started seeing snow at. Snow level is probably a little lower on the west side just based on the delivery of cold air out of the WNW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxeyeNH Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Okay, maybe we can try one more time. I'll take the 18Z GFS for a nice storm next Thursday. Just lock in this run and wake me up on Wednesday. Great day for a timelapse. Socked in first thing, then bust into the warm sector followed by the cold front with showers. You can really see the direction of the clouds change. If you look carefully you will see my "lawnmowers" were out this AM and again this PM. https://video.nest.com/clip/877092fe2f414058beb9ce27bca79f33.mp4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Down to 37.6F PF at what temp do you think I'll start seeing catpaws? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dryslot Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Still some hints of winter along the shore in the CPV Would have been a nice day for a boat ride on Champlain, If that is Lake Champlain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.Spin Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 We are over to white rain in town now. Small wet flakes at 35F. I’d say by ~8:00 P.M. we were fully over to snow down here at 500' and we’ve got a bit of new accumulation now. There’s certainly moisture upstream on the radar, so hopefully we’ll add a bit more to the frozen portion of this storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Temps still marginal and there's so much water in the yard right now, ha. I'm not sure what its like elsewhere, but this is some of the most standing water I've ever seen in town here. Lakes.

eyewall Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Amazingly because o,ethis backend snow we will have a net gain or at least break even. Sent from my VS986 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be a net gain here as the ground was bare and only got .2" on the front end. Coming down pretty nicely now. Solid coating down. Maybe squeeze out .5". Small victories this year.

eyewall Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 About an inch down so at least break even and counting. Snowing at a good clip right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyewall Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 This was in BTV but I actually have a bit more in Winooski: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ono Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 got over 2" here by UVM. So much for dusting to 1/3". That 1-3" call for higher elevations may be conservative considering it's been snowing for some time now (~10 hours) in the mountains, and the radar looks decently robust coming over the Dacks in WNW flow. Steady light snow here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mreaves Posted February 26, 2016 Author Share Posted February 26, 2016 Not much over here. Maybe .25". Still, as eyewall said, it's a net gain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ono Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 It looks to be howling with some decent snow on the Smuggs webcam. Pretty nice little wrap around event. Take what you can get this season. See what the morning brings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgottmann Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Is this what is called a blocked flow? Radar looks like snow is not making past west side of the greens, the entire length of the spine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eyewall Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Eyeballing somewhere around 2 inches here as well. The wind is real gusty and blowing it around now. Sent from my VS986 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Had about 2" of fluff at home, and its real windy up at the mountain so it was 2" of wind-blown snow at the base. Groomers say 4" is a safe number but may be more once you can investigate it. They just couldn't say with the wind and fluffy snow as its like 0-12" from the wind. I see Smuggs with 5"... Sugarbush showing 1-7"... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ApacheTrout Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 1.5 inches here. 0.19 of liquid (rain and snow) in the cylinder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.Spin Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Event totals: 4.6” Snow/2.53” L.E. Well, this most recent “sandwich storm” (Winter Storm Petros) had less front end snow than the similar one last week (Winter Storm Olympia) around here, but more back end snow. This one also had substantially more liquid equivalent overall, with 2.5”+. But, at least it did result in another net gain in snowpack depth. Details from the 12:00 A.M. Waterbury observations: New Snow: 2.2 inches New Liquid: 0.13 inches Snow/Water Ratio: 16.9 Snow Density: 5.9% H2O Temperature: 27.3 F Sky: Snow (5-15 mm flakes) Snow at the stake: 3.0 inches Details from the 6:00 A.M. Waterbury observations: New Snow: 1.3 inches New Liquid: 0.04 inches Snow/Water Ratio: 32.5 Snow Density: 3.1% H2O Temperature: 18.1 F Sky: Flurries Snow at the stake: 4.0 inches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
