Monitoring the 29th/30th for significant impact coastal redevelopment - confidence only medium for now but is trending favorably.

The number of posts shows how well this is going for most of SNE.

Up to about 2.5” 29.6°  I think this is a little better than I expected. It feels like this is the first time out of the low 30’s in a while. 

Damn!  Thats pretty legit.  Band has just been rotting over you.  We’ve seen a couple widely scattered flurries like ~10-15 miles NW.

Solid heavy band over. Looks like coating on driveway. Maybe cold surfaces are half an inch.

Kinda wild hearing the melting as the rates drop to light, and temps bump up a degree or two.

[NoCORH4L]

Got about 5" here but has lightened up

One of my least favorite winter sounds.  Hearing snow turning to water.

This is like a snowfall in early April in the early 2000s. Garbage locally.

Looks like we're going to end up with 2 inches. What's showing on radar doesn't seem to be translating to the ground. Precip shield looks like it will rotate out of this area soon

I really wish we had better radar coverage on this side of the spine. It would benefit BTV and GYX.

They just need to pop a WSR-88D on top of Ascutney.

I’ve always thought the airport up in Berlin (KMPV) would be the optimal spot to cover eastern VT and NH west of the Whites.

Yeah, just looking on google maps, decently high terrain, no major mountains right next to it, you could pretty much cover the rest of the state.

Looks like 2" or so in Lowell per webcam. 1,5" in Thornton.

Ascutney summit would be incredible.  The 0.5 degree base scan would show so much without topography interfering the sample in eastern VT and adjacent NH.  It might even overstate precip given its beam would start at over 3,000ft and increase from there…but zero barriers to the signal in any direction.

Probably close to 35 MPH gusts right now. 38 and rain.

I know right? It'd be some real eye of Sauron sh*t.

Better than I thought.  About 1" this morning.  Just flurries and light snow right now.  I was expecting just rain.

[tunafish]

Look I don't need a new fancy radar for my area.  All I'm asking for is that the property owner adjacent to GYX cut down some effin' trees.

 

32.4 SN- and 0.5" new.

2” just a little north of you in East Montpelier. Solid moderate to heavy snow right now.  I was in Waterbury for start of the event and noticeably warmer and lighter snow there. Snow picked up and 3F temp difference between Waterbury and Montpelier exits on 89. Jives with Powderfreaks no snow in Stowe earlier.

I was expecting just rain and have also received just rain. ☔️

[mahk_webstah]

Moderate-heavy now.  Maybe 2”.  Still radar looks like lots of holes in the precip.  Maybe we get lucky if it stabilizes with a band and pivots a bit with the low.  4” would be a win.  I imagine there could be a few lucky 8” totals somewhere.

breezy and 32

High-end content.  Thanks for sharing.

[DavisStraight]

I has an inch earlier but got beat down from rain and sleet and now another inch.

[PowderBeard]

Sitting under this band has been great. About 4" so far. 

[AstronomyEnjoyer]

Admins caught wind that I'm pinned under a weenie band and had to shut the site down for a bit lest I spam it into oblivion.

32.0° mod snow

2.1”

 

edit…that was 30 mins ago

[dendrite]

5s exposure on the phone. Getting pasty out there. 

[lurker]

Up to 6” now, finally reached 32.0°. Power has flickered a few times but is still on for now.
