tamarack Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Wind went calm but the clouds stayed around to keep temps well above freezing. With mid 20s dews, a clear night would've been frosty here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxeyeNH Posted May 28, 2021 Author Share Posted May 28, 2021 Hum, (it's the NAM) but the 12Z run raises some eyebrows. Precip gets further north and it is sure cold. 850mb below freezing and even 925mb is very close. Could I flip early tomorrow morning or at least at elevations above 2000? It's happened before.

I just looked at my Nest cam timelapse. I had lots of clouds late at night. You may have too which helped keep you from colder temperatures. If tonights storm comes any further north the Whites could have some snow tonight according to my weenie eyes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 43F at 9:30. Colder south and east where evaporational cooling is happening, even from virga. Where precip is actually falling will be the coldest this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mreaves Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 So I figured the storm Wednesday night was pretty meh, and it was, at least for me. 2 miles away across town at my friend’s house, it was a different story. Looks like they got hit with a microburst. Looks like 7 or 8 trees were knocked over including a couple of healthy looking maples snapped in half about 15’ above ground. Here are a couple of pics. p.s. I’m a pretty lame photographer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s my buddy’s plan for the weekend, at least after he gets done with the work project he has in the morning. Sitting out on his deck tonight, I wish we had been burning some already. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxeyeNH Posted May 29, 2021 Author Share Posted May 29, 2021 Snowy day atop Vermont higher mountains. Looking at the Stratton Cameras. Snow line was around 2500 feet. It's still mixed at this level as of 11am but snowing and accumulating on the summit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavisStraight Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 Anyone know where the highest residential house is in New England? I know no one lives on the top of these ski areas but just curious where the highest residence is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was also a house Alex was talking about a few months ago up at about 1900' on Dalton Ridge Rd near Whitefield that we thought would be snowy, but then Will came in and said it was still a total snow pit.

There are some down in the Dover/Andover area around Mt.Snow that are pretty high and the Bolton Valley base lodge is at 2100’ so some of this condos are up there.

Yea, we have for sure. 2500' is supposedly the threshold right? There's got to be some backwoods cabins off the grid near 3k somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He might know if any neighbors live uphill from there. Highest I found in a quick search of Rangeley was about 1920'. If htre are any higher fulltime residences I don't know of them. Maybe condos at Sugarloaf? The highest ones (on 2016 imagery) were at about 2050' but I suspect none are primary residences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think in Stowe there are some properties very close to 2,000ft but not sure any actually exceed that. I know the NEK has some 2,000ft spots. Jay Peak has residential units up to 2,400ft I think... same with Bolton Valley, as there's a residential road loop that goes above the base area even. Southern VT probably has the largest area of inhabited 2,000ft+ spots. Adirondacks are also way the hell up there. Lots of spots 1500-2000ft that are valley bottom locations like SLK and Lake Placid. Hard to fathom being at 2,000ft and in a valley with lakes around and 4-5kft terrain around. Easy to see why those spots are so cold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 I think we lucked out in NNE today. Lots of sun after 12pm and while it felt like September/October in temperatures... the solar strength this time of year felt like it made up for it. Sun was warm. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm somewhere between 1850-1900', which is higher than where the main lifts start. The north Village may be up another 100-200' but that's about it. The Stratton mansions under that one chair on the left side of the mountain may be a little higher tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT Valley Snowman Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 I would think the higher plateau of the east slopes of the Berks, in towns like Windsor, Savoy, Peru , Florida, etc would probably have some homes, lots near 2K as well. I believe the Town Green in Windsor Mass is at about 2031 feet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
