mreaves Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Just notice Rutland County has been upgraded to a warning. Nice for them. It seems like they rarely get in on a jackpot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sankaty Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 About 5" at closing bell at Killington today and it was still coming down heavily. Looks like they'll do great for this storm. Mix line was about 10 miles north of Brattleboro on the drive home at 7PM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 It is just crushing snow this morning. 5" in 24 hours at the base as of 5:30am but we picked up another 1" in 30 minutes and it continues to nuke with the cold front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.Spin Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Event totals: 4.8” Snow/0.41” L.E. Snowfall was fairly light overnight and at observations time, but it has really picked up this morning. I was out doing a bit of shoveling and it was up around 1”/hr. Details from the 6:00 A.M. Waterbury observations: New Snow: 1.2 inches New Liquid: 0.11 inches Snow/Water Ratio: 10.9 Snow Density: 9.2% H2O Temperature: 32.9 F Sky: Light Snow (1-5 mm flakes) Snow at the stake: 15.5 inches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mreaves Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 I think 5" will do it for me. Like PF was saying in the other thread, a nice dense snow. Trees are caked. Looks like we add to it this Wednesday. Winter is back after a brief hiatus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klw Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 6" at home. I blame the recent snow drought on my back. I threw it out in a coughing fit three weeks ago and Mother Nature was just trying to help me out. Finally close to 100% again, so bring it on!

backedgeapproaching Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 7.1" final here, although I switched to some rain for the last 2 hours of the event so that knocked it down a bit. Just absolute cement out there. 10" of concrete once this hardens up with dropping temps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 4" will do it here. Was expecting a bit more, but won't complain. Just 1.1 more would have gotten me to 100 for the season lol... Should do it on Wednesday or even today if the upslope doesn't shut off. Wet sticky snow after the initial powdery stuff, trees are plastered. Light snow at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyewall Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 We did alright here too. I just wish the wind didn't blast it out of the trees because it looked real nice. I know it is hard to get a snow here where that doesn't happen. It is nice to see it though!Sent from my VS995 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamarack Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Nice for the west half of NNE. Maineiacs outside of the far north are enjoying their 0.1-1.0" of snow and maelstroms of black ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.Spin Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Here’s the north to south listing of available snowfall totals from this most recent storm for the Vermont ski areas: Jay Peak: 19” Burke: 5” Smuggler’s Notch: 9” Stowe: 8” Bolton Valley: 8” Mad River Glen: 6” Sugarbush: 6” Middlebury: 3” Pico: 16” Killington: 16” Okemo: 14” Bromley: 12” Magic Mountain: 10” Stratton: 8” Mount Snow: 10” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.Spin Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Winter Storm Watches and projected accumulations maps are up from the BTV NWS ahead of this next winter storm. It looks like much of Vermont aside from the far north is in the 8-12” range for anticipated storm totals at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

backedgeapproaching Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 11" I think would be high end for her looking at that map Jspin posted, not most likely, but well see. If 11" did come to fruition that would put my area already right near climo averages by early Feb, pretty impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.Spin Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Event totals: 5.8” Snow/0.46” L.E. Well, with this morning's final accumulation added in, that’s it for this storm. It was definitely good for the snowpack with almost half a foot of snow and nearly half an inch of liquid equivalent down here, with more at elevation of course. Details from the 8:00 P.M.

wxeyeNH Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 I'm a passenger in a car right now and we're driving from my house in the Plymouth area down to Manchester. Just went through about 10 miles of really heavy snow in the Tilton area with quarter mile or less visibility and cars off the road. Snow is much lighter now as we head towards Concord heading south.

J.Spin Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Event totals: 0.3” Snow/0.01” L.E. Today’s snowfall activity is from the weak Alberta Clipper low passing over Northern New England. Details from the 6:00 A.M. Waterbury observations: New Snow: 0.3 inches New Liquid: 0.01 inches Snow/Water Ratio: 30.0 Snow Density: 3.3% H2O Temperature: 10.4 F Sky: Light Snow (1-3 mm flakes) Snow at the stake: 14.5 inches The sun is in and out here in Burlington, but I can see the flakes are still chugging along on the spine and at the house via radar and the web cam: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.Spin Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 The Winter Storm Watches from yesterday have been converted to Winter Storm Warning in all of Vermont now ahead of this next system, which is considered impactful enough to earn the name Winter Storm Liam. The accumulations map from yesterday has been tweaked a bit, but it’s representing generally 8-12” accumulation shading throughout the state with 8-10” accumulations highlighted at various sites. The point forecast for our site indicates the potential for 6-12” of accumulation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.Spin Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 With our recent storm I stopped in at Bolton Valley for some turns yesterday morning, so I can pass along some snow updates from Timberline. There was a nice skin track in place on Twice as Nice as usual, and I frequently checked the depths of the powder along my ascent. Wind had pushed the snow around a bit, but I generally found depths of 5 to 8 inches above the subsurface with spot amounts up to 10 inches near the Timberline Mid Station. My descent yielded some excellent turns. Turns were bottomless, even on much of the Spell Binder headwall, aside from a few contacts with the subsurface here and there. I even found protected spots with depths of over a foot. I’ve added a couple of shots from the tour below: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
