powderfreak Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Here we go again. I think 3-6" is possible tonight for the ski resorts.... someone could score 6+ if any lake effect squalls get "stuck" on the Spine, ie it just keeps redeveloping as moisture plows into the mountains. Since the switch flipped a month ago in November it has just wanted to snow. One of those patterns where if you are unsure if it'll happen or not, bet on the snowier side of things. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 I would blow my brains out if I had to clean off my truck 3x/day, 5 days/week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep a leaf blower in the trunk... just fire it up and snow's gone, lol. But yeah, morning and night for the past several days have had to get the brush out. J.Spin will be on accumulating snow event #35 at Christmas at this rate. The "days and days of snow" phrase could be applied now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendrite Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Lost control on my way in this morning, but regained control Dale Earnhardt style (pre death). I wasn't even going that fast, but I drove like Aunt Mildred after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 About 2.5-3" last night at home and 5" up the road at the mountain. Enough for the plow guy to hit my driveway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is in a good location to catch every uplsope snowfall. He is also the most diligent measurer that I have ever seen. He is a fanatic about data collection and quality and measures exactly according to the NWS standards. He comes as close to anyone can to capturing every single flake that falls.

tamarack Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 A few flakes about 8 AM here in Augusta after the 1/4" yesterday/overnight. Only a dusting at home, but a heavier dusting in Belgrade covered the black ice on Long Pond, showing the lake about 98% iced. Long vies with Great Pond for latest freeze-up among the Belgrades, and this is the earliest I've seen the ice catch. Should add enough thickness over the weekend and early next week to withstand the mild-up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Still snowing. Skiing was unreal...probably more like 6-7" up high overnight. The mountain snowpack is incredible for this time of year. Even the base area looks like February. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I looked out the window before sunrise, i could see the street was wet, but I couldnt see any evidence of snow so when i saw the temp i assumed a shower moved through. Once, the sun was up i could see the coating of snow of the mulch. I guess we did get some snow showers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
