What do you do for work?  There isn't much in the way of jobs up there.

King of all fake air masses this morning 

Imagine doubling your heating bill for a 100ft layer of cold. No thanks. 

[tamarack]

Cloudy yesterday after a peek of sun early, temp was still 20 at 10 PM.  Then the clouds departed and we were in the -5 vicinity 9 hours later.

Pretty much sums it up.

Work in retail, mainly cashiering

Depending on where in the NEK you live, it could be tough.  There is retail in Derby/Newport and Littleton, NH. Not a lot in between.

It’s pretty remote and NEK actually gets less snow than further west in VT.  More than Brattleboro but if snow is a factor head up 89 I think to one of those towns south of Burlington.

Pretty good afternoon inversion with full sun for this latitude in NNE

I apologize if it was already posted.

Yeah that is where we differ, she wants remote but I want elevation for obvious reasons... I was thinking Ludlow/Mt. Holly

Ludlow is a really good spot. The old coop (now defunct) used to average almost 100” per year iirc. Can vary a bit depending on elevation there but generally that’s a solid spot in the middle of the greens. Most of the town  is above 1,000 feet already. 

[CoastalWx]

Ludlow is a great snow town with stuff to do from a retail POV. You also have killington not too far away which also may offer that opportunity too.

Not sure if you’d ever want to start a business, but those places get tourists all year round. My old team member took over his family hardware store business in Londonderry VT just south of Ludlow. He’s doing really well business wise. People need that kind of stuff and box stores are not close by.

At the risk of getting virtual tomatoes thrown at me, anniversary of a great one 14 years ago. Tip’s favorite storm. 
 

Kind of unusual here in metro BOS since we slotted, however tremendous low level forcing actually helped force a lot of convective precipitation and took advantage of the unstable dry slot aloft. That was another storm that benefited BOS and down 95 with the jack. 18-20” there. I think where I am now had 12-15” of really wet snow.

Warmth is coming for all unfortunately.

Which is why I thought it was weird when my zones had gotten colder. I haven’t read the discussion yet.

The inversion is strengthening again this evening as the atmosphere radiates.

3,600ft… 23F

1,500ft… 13F

750ft… 0F

730ft… -1F

The river plain is the surface of the moon in these patterns with a fresh snowpack.

 Lowest solar angle of the year.

Energy bills ramping up quickly over this last stretch here.

6.2° at 1250’

[dendrite]

33°F colder at 1600ft than 4000ft on the auto road right now. 

[kdxken]

14° . Didn't think it would get that cold

[HoarfrostHubb]

Ha. Another 8F morning. Two in a row.   NWS thought 12

[powderfreak]

-8F

Its 29F at 3,600ft top of the FourRunner Quad.

Just the FourRunner Quad alone, it’s over 20 degrees warmer at the top than bottom right now.

[Modfan2]

Solid cold this am. Down to 12F in the valley here in E CT. Actually happy to see rain Sunday into Monday to wash the salt off the roads. A little icing potential tomorrow am?

[CoastalWx]

19 here and still dropping. A week of mild weather begins today.

At least it’s trending to not be a complete washout.  Ski industry appreciation week(s) right now.

Well it took a wetter turn overnight.  But still a little hope for Wednesday

-7 here in radiational cooling land. a bit frustrating to see the rain in the forecast with so many people visiting, but personally I’m really thankful - my sister was here for a week and it was just picture perfect Hallmark movie snow all week. We leave today for Yellowstone, excited about that! It’s a magical place in the winter.
