Average depth over the season would show a much more complete pictures. Add standard deviations and you’d really get a different story! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 It's great for those areas... spawning new generations of snow weenies. Some seem to get bothered by it, which is real odd, even if there's still good snow on the ground and it looks like mid-winter as it should. Like its some competition, but everyone knows what happens in the means and the longevity of the snow season vs. other areas. It's early February and the classic climo favorable time for the baroclinic zone to dip to it's southernmost position. This is when it should be snowing in those areas. It's great for those posters/folks who love snow. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bwt3650 Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 I have about 28” in NJ...what’s uncommon this year is the snow on snow pattern setting up, not necessarily the depth at one single moment. It’s great to see down there as it’s been a couple years since there has been a real snow pack mid winter feel, but it still can’t compare to northern vermont. Overall winter retention is completely different. It’s great for the local ski areas tho, who some seasons ski on completely man made garbage most of the year. Even hunter opened all of hunter west for the first time in a few years.. I agree...I root for snow anywhere. I live seeing places that miss for a while score big, especially knowing the averages will come through up north. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 Some some good moisture pulsing into the Spine. I bet it's heavy at times in the elevations of the Spine on the county lines. Steady light snow here, good growth and eye-balling 2" on the elevated snow board out back. The snow surface is sparkling with this fluff. It does keep things looking so fresh even if they are light amounts. Precip happening below the beam up by Jay Peak on the county line east of Richford, but elsewhere it probably samples pretty well.

Don’t most sites in NNE at elevation have snowpack depths of 30”+ at this point? From the map, it looks like some sites in that area might be in the 20”+ range, but not 30”+ unless they really got hit hard with another storm today.

Yea, I'm not sure what elevation he was referring to. Any real elevation (2K+) would mostly be near 30" or higher going up in elevation I think like you said. Lower elevation sites throughout VT, yes, that is more comparable and higher in NJ than some of the VT spots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha true, the valley spots might be comparable, but the higher elevations certainly have more.1,500ft and higher is loaded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timp Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 Just measured 3” and still coming down lightly. Snow growth is great. Pack is over 20” and had to rake my roof today with how well it’s been stacking up. Would love for a large synoptic event but with all this bread and butter I’m pretty full.

Nice, I measured 2.5" at 8:30pm. Another snowy evening. Nothing earth shattering but it really seems to snow often around here the past 4-6 weeks. -SN at probably a couple mile visibility at this point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are like a prince lounging in the Palace of Versailles circa 1720 wondering why those peasants won’t just chill since they had a great wheat harvest and have that latest wine shipment the king sent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhineasC Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 There is a reason I came from MD and kept going to NNE. I didn’t stop in NJ or Mass. I could have moved basically anywhere in the entire EC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
