NNE Cold Season Thread 2021/2022

Event totals: 4.1” Snow/0.18” L.E.

 

This is likely the last round of observations for this system, since there are plenty of blue sky patches out there now.  The storm total was right in the 2-5” that the BTV NWS had in our point forecast, so great work there as usual.  There are clouds to our west and a hint of echoes in WNW flow on the radar, so we’ll have to see if any flakes come out of that.  The next system in the queue is projected to come into the area tonight.

 

Details from the 6:00 A.M. Waterbury observations:

New Snow: 0.7 inches

New Liquid: 0.03 inches

Snow/Water Ratio: 23.3

Snow Density: 4.3% H2O

Temperature: 16.0 F

Sky: Mostly Cloudy

Snow at the stake: 15.0 inches

A beefy 8 on Friday, 10 with the first shot and 6 with the second get us two feet in a week and back to good skiing.  My hope and prediction. And let’s loose these 50s to single digits for a bit.

Over performers for Jay on all three they are reporting another 6 this morning....the missing upslope magic this season came through, though Friday was anything but beefy.  Still, great to see the powder in the woods again.  Was almost a guarantee since I’m in Jersey this week.  Starting to feel like I have the phin effect on winter.  You guys don’t do well with us fake NNE’ers.

What a great stretch.  I try to make a graphic for as many snowfalls as possible for the record.  This system brought ~7" to the mountain (2/3rds of the way up).  Over two feet there in the past 7 days.  Yesterday and last night are the real bread and butter events.

The mountain is duffed out.  The fake snow adds up and leads to fantastic skiing.  Today was high-end fun after yet another solid performer from Ma Nature.

It's short lived this year, but fun to see the Mansfield magic finally come through after a number of imposter systems this season.  The Alberta Clipper parade can be a good pattern in these parts it lines up.

Event totals: 4.2” Snow/0.18” L.E.

 

We actually did pick up a bit of additional accumulation from this morning’s residual flakes, so final totals for the storm are above.  That should make the end of that system though, since the next one appears to be on our doorstep.

 

Details from the 6:00 P.M. Waterbury observations:

New Snow: 0.1 inches

New Liquid: Trace

Temperature: 24.1 F

Sky: Cloudy

Snow at the stake: 14.0 inches

Surgery now on the 14th. I figure right around that time, there should be a huge storm, probably even thunder snow an I will miss it being under anesthesia 

Well, bright side is you will be on the mend. Your health is more important than any weather event. :) 

And at least the surgery is getting done promptly.

I jetted down to Mass for the weekly visit with the gf last night, but it looks like I missed at least 2-3" at the cabin based on nearby CoCoRaHS reports. Surprised to see nearly 8" new reported at Hermit Lake! A definite overachiever in New Hampshire. Should be great skiing through Saturday.

Event totals: 2.2” Snow/0.12” L.E.

 

Snow started up late last night and there was 2.2” on the boards this morning at observations time.  Snowfall did pick up after that to the 1”/hr. range, so there will be additional accumulation to report in the next round of observations.

 

Details from the 6:00 A.M. Waterbury observations:

New Snow: 2.2 inches

New Liquid: 0.12 inches

Snow/Water Ratio: 18.3

Snow Density: 5.5% H2O

Temperature: 22.5 F

Sky: Light Snow (5-12 mm flakes)

Snow at the stake: 16.0 inches

It is still dumping up here.  Trails appeared to have 6-8” on them.  The High Road snowboard should have a good stack.  That’s a full on powder day out there.

The anticipation of the chair opening was high today.

Classic upslope enhancement all week with these little clipper disturbances...good call by @Ginx snewx a week or so ago.  Like the way it should be in the northern greens.  Enjoy your laps, bro.  I’m not back for another couple weeks, but pattern doesn’t look terrible through mid-month for us.

NNE will probably get slammed Monday into Tuesday.  I have to be at Maine Med at 6:30 Tuesday (ablation procedure, to address my a-fib) and we're overnighting a mile away rather than doing the 2-hour drive that morning.

Two clippers, 4.5", thanks to 1.5" overnight.  Surprised that LEW got so much, as cocorahs showed 6-8" in midcoast locales (Lincoln/Knox Counties) but mostly 4" or less elsewhere.

Best wishes for your procedure.

Had to leave saddleback earlier than expected this morning but enjoyed the 3” they got Tuesday night. Last night delivered an additional 2”. Like dryslot I was surprised to arrive home this morning in Bridgton to about 5” of fluff. Combined with an inch earlier this week and the SWFE that delivered 8” that’s 15” since last Friday. A nice stretch for sure.
