Here are a few shots I grabbed this morning:

Those are some great shots--thanks for posting them!

Just got back home.  Went from cool, dank, dreary up in Maine to a beautiful late fall date here at the Pit.  The wind really killed off the leaves--what a difference it makes with respect to the sun light into the house.

 

49.8/30

Post mortem,  it looks like the NAM did pretty darn well when employing/assessing what could take place given it's FRH data.  I'm not as privy to other model specifics heading into this thing, but the NAM was hammering height implosion then biasing (if not outright) several hours of QPF on the marginal-cold-frozen side ... which, then we add in terrain climo and boom. 

Wind has been entirely manageable if not pedestrian.  the average gust velocity has been ~ 48 mph on the coastal plain, and ~ 30 so far in the interior.   this per KTAN's web-site - there may be other sources that support/add/subtract from this... I am not personally aware if there is a climate assessment for wind, specifically, as it pertains to season and/or system-recurrences.  Like, 'what is the average backside gust' - i don't think i've ever heard of that..  Just from my experiences over the last three decades in SNE, this system is forgettable so far.  We'll see if the destablizatioin off of feeble late October insolation/heating can help this some... 

I'm pretty sure it's been done at some local offices, but I can't for the life of me find the articles/information. A sure fire rule of thumb is avoid HWW in NW flow. It's exceedingly rare to get criteria on NW flow.

That may be why it's so hard to find those studies because it's research by necessity maybe

We were talking about Jay 

Ah my source from Lyndon State College (who's really into weather and snow obviously) said 8-12" with some drifts maybe to 15" and he skinned to the peak.

I watch a lot of VT skiers/riders and those in the industry on social media and no one has claimed more than 12" that I can tell.  Although I can see how some might think more.  I've tossed a few social media reports I saw from Stowe of people saying 13-15".  With the high wind (Mansfield gusted 75mph before the anemometer crapped out or froze last night), its very hard to tell and easy to see how you get a wide variety of reports.
