powderfreak Posted March 9, 2017 Author Share Posted March 9, 2017 Fun day with wind taking down a huge 60-foot evergreen onto transmission lines in Stowe, knocking out power to town and the ski resort for a couple hours. I saw pictures of the tree from Stowe Electric and they busted ass to get it cleared. It was sort of in the middle of no where too. Also this morning I thought I witnessed the highest gust I've seen in a long time at the top of Nosedive. No idea on speed but it doubled me over. I see a lot of wind but that one gust was another level. One of those where you're like wow this is windy and then it gets some extra juice from somewhere and just goes nuts for 5 seconds. I'd have to estimate 70-80mph range but I know wind estimates are total crapshoots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.Spin Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Event totals: 0.7” Snow/0.02” L.E. We picked up a tenth of an inch of snow this morning before observations time, and then and additional 0.6” fell when stronger squalls came through. According to the BTV NWS, today’s snow was from an upper level shortwave passing through the area. Details from the 10:00 P.M. Waterbury observations: New Snow: 0.6 inches New Liquid: 0.02 inches Snow/Water Ratio: 30.0 Snow Density: 3.3% H2O Temperature: 30.4 F Sky: Flurries Snow at the stake: 0.5 inches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amarshall Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 GYX has 1" for us at Bretton Woods today. Is that more squalls? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then it sort of morphs into that inverted trof feature if the HRRR is right, but that will be too fast east to really impact the mountains.

Hitman Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 for the record, snow-forecast.com has SB getting 33" tuesday and 10" wednesday. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolMike Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Donno about 33" but a storm total of 20" is possible. Its also possible they only get 1 inch of snow from the same storm though. I'm watching every model run with interest at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mreaves Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Gonna put this here as to not mess up the main model thread. Call me crazy but at this point in the season either give me an epic, VDay 07 type of storm or nothing. Don't get me wrong, if this was 2 weeks ago before we lost all the snow I would be giddy at the prospect of even a couple of inches of snow but at this point its nothing but garbage time buckets when your down by 20. So we hit a few quick three's at the end to make the score look closer than it actually was, big deal. Now, if we were progged to get some of the totals shown in SEMA, that would be a different story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im riding the GFS and going down with the ship But yea, 7" of 18:1 fluff is going to seem like piddly poo compared the feet upon feet near the coast if the Euro keeps holding steadfast. Well at least its not like 24 hours out and we arent locked in, still time.......I hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't' be able to snowmobile around my house, what would otherwise be a nice treat so it will just be window dressing at this point. If we got huge numbers, I would be fine with others getting even bigger numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adk Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Let's see what the models look like Monday AM. Then I'll feel like there is a reasonable chance what they show might happen. When there are hundreds of miles of divergence, I await more data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTV's AFD is terrific in its analysis of the solutions provided by the GFS and the EURO. Here's the bit about the EURO. However...the 00z/12z GEM/Euro paints a completely different story across our region with much less impacts...as system stays unphased with only minor impacts. The GEM/Euro solutions show two distinct energy centers at 12z Tuesday with one located over the se CONUS helping to develop low pres near Hatteras and northern stream over the western Great Lakes. These two energy pieces never really phase and keep our cwa on western edge of deeper qpf fields...as surface low pres tracks southeast of the 40/70 benchmark and lies on the eastern side of the guidance envelope. Taking these two solutions verbatim would suggests advisory level snow eastern/southern cwa...with maybe a couple inches here in the CPV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyewall Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 I am guessing the euro will win but I can dream of being wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
backedgeapproaching Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Just got home after a white knuckler drive back from Dorset, just pure whiteout with these squalls. Went out for some dinner and drinks around 5pm and bare ground and came out 3 hours layer to 2 inches and S+. Had no idea it was even snowing. Almost a carbon copy of last Friday.

J.Spin Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Event totals: 0.4” Snow/0.02” L.E. They’ve all been on the low side with respect to accumulation, but there certainly hasn’t been a shortage of snow-producing systems thus far this March. The arctic front that just came through was already the sixth event this month. There was a tenth of an inch earlier yesterday, and then another 0.3” through midnight. There was some additional accumulation after midnight, but it was less than a tenth of an inch due to those tiny arctic flakes. Details from the 12:00 A.M. Waterbury observations: New Snow: 0.3 inches New Liquid: 0.02 inches Snow/Water Ratio: 15.0 Snow Density: 6.7% H2O Temperature: 14.2 F Sky: Light Snow (1 mm flakes) Snow at the stake: 1.0 inches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is going to be bitterly cold on Church St. Still looking at zero from the underside here, though it's close, and winds gusting close to 30. Morning low (-9) came at least 2 hours after sunrise, as CAA roared in. WCI at MWN was -85 last hour, -33 with winds 81G92. That's got to be close to record cold/WCI for March.

eekuasepinniW Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Low was 0.0, currently 2.2 Pretty amazing amount of blowing snow considering only about a half inch fell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
