I still find that all voodoo. There’s nothing that stands out about this event versus others wrt wrecked crystals. 

I know what Mark was talking about in terms of flake type… but to me the wind thing doesn’t hold much weight. It can absolutely stuff fluff on the mountain with great snow growth in 60 mph winds.  Same with Lake Effect bands.  It’s all snow growth related.

Stronger lift will see better growth as is often the case.  Flake size will decrease quite a bit in the lulls.

Flakes just went small and steady.  Synoptic flakes.  Sounds like a low hiss outside as it falls.

Dogs back was coated quickly but not by fluff, this is more QPF 8-10:1 type stuff all the sudden.

Sounds like the flakes were fractured and wrecked by the winds in the mid levels.
