#NoPoles Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 Damn, Vail owned Ski Areas in NH are just utter disasters- Wildcat, Attitash, Crotched....barely any snow making, not being able to open, not getting lifts up and running, opening but the mysteriously shutting down for "lift maintenance".. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patriot21 Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 26 at 7:30am, looks like a dusting of snow overnight. Had a little bit during the day yesterday as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongBeachSurfFreak Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 Decided to make the drive north today from SVT where its barely winter. My house this winter in west townshend is only at 800’ and it shows. A couple inches of slush. Things are only marginally better at Stratton. The winter line (real snow cover) starts about 30 miles north on 91. Hoping for some better conditions at the bush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.Spin Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 Event totals: 0.3” Snow/0.04” L.E. The BTV NWS says the snow from last night into this morning was from an upper-level shortwave tracking across the region, and it sounds like any additional snow through this morning can be attributed to that system. As we get into the evening hours today, there’s the potential for a resurgence in snowfall, which looks like it would be attributed to a different shortwave. Details from the 6:00 A.M. Waterbury observations: New Snow: 0.3 inches New Liquid: 0.04 inches Snow/Water Ratio: 7.5 Snow Density: 13.3% H2O Temperature: 32.5 F Sky: Cloudy Snow at the stake: 5.0 inches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This one we had one storm for 6 to 8 inches two weeks ago and a few more of inch or so. No real cold but a few radiational cooling nights and lots of clouds grey skies, inversions and temps in the 30s during the day Grinch for sure! We get Grinch events around Christmas in about 2/3 of our winters here, but 12/25/2020 stands alone for awfulness. The 0.1" dusting gives this month 21 days with flakes, 13 with measurable snow. If we get any frozen tomorrow, the 22 days would tie December 2007 for the most in any month as we enter my 24th winter here. 12/07 had 46.2" 12/21 has 13.7" so far.

mreaves Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 Will have to wait for PF to confirm but I have to think it's actually been a decent holiday week for the ski resorts. No big snow dump but no big rainer or meltdown either and the temps have been pleasant for vacationers. Seems like it's a million times better than last year.

Not a deep pack and only 1/3 of the groomers open, and glades only open for a day or two, but the combination of light snow most days and snow covered trees has made it feel nice and wintry - certainly a lot better than last year. Surprisingly though the ski area seems pretty empty, not nearly the crowds we usually see, even though people are here (we are sold out of homes) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not far from a mostly snow event here. 23 minutes ago, powderfreak said: Yeah that’s a good jump south. I guess we’ll have to see where the modeling is going because we’re still ~36 hours or so out from the front end of the modeled system, but there seems to be a lot of potential in these recent runs. The storm appears rather strung out, but areas on the snow side of the swath of precipitation that comes though could get a protracted period of snowfall. The 18Z ICON is an example of how it would be snowing for almost a day and a half in northern areas around here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good trends at 18z. Euro dump in the punch bowl time. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
backedgeapproaching Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 Not that this is an epic pattern by any means, but these in-situ CAD/ wedge type patterns can at least be somewhat workable for Lakes Region into Maine. But man, total dog-poo for SVT, especially west of the spine. Even East slopes has been crap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hitman Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 Looks wintry here in the mrv. Solid albeit minimal snow cover down the valley. what limited trails are open actually skiing ok.

Another dusting here. I had to stretch a bit to call yesterday's dusting a tenth, so today's lesser "dump" means the 2-day total is an honest 0.1". 22 days with frozen precip this month, 13 with measurable, and sill more than 5" BN. At least the 8" pack is near average. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.Spin Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 Event totals: 0.1” Snow/0.02” L.E. I saw a bit of snow yesterday evening, and found a slushy tenth of an inch on the boards this morning from this most recent event. There’s not really any snow in the forecast for today, so if that’s the last of the month, this December will finish off with 20.6” of total snow. Details from the 6:00 A.M.

J.Spin Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 Alexa just chirped up with an alert that we’ve been put under a Winter Weather Advisory starting at 7:00 P.M. tomorrow. It looks like the advisory is for most of the BTV NWS coverage area. I haven’t looked into any projected accumulations maps yet, but the advisory text itself suggests up to 4 inches of snow at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
