With a pretty decent snow pack, it will be interesting to see how cold it gets tonight. NWS says 15. I think we can get to 12 if the wind is calm.

Around here Shade is no melt at all and sun equals snow almost gone. 

 

Forecast for 17 here. Down to 36 so far.

I think the sleet really helped make this snow hang on longer. We lost some in the sun but the ground is still 90% covered here. Its now 32.

Just an absolutely beautiful day. It’s been so long. Little bit of melting but still plenty of spots to take my daughter sledding in the morning.

Manifesting a December 2018 event. It only feels right given how cold it’s been.

A little surprised they canceled school tomorrow. 

Lots of secondary roads are still covered. A bunch on my morning bus route are. I go way out in the top of the county towards Jack Moore mountain and hollis.

Most of the snow survived the day. Idk if it makes it tomorrow but 3 days with snow cover feels like such a steal when it was only a few inches 

Same in the shaded areas here. My front yard still has had little melt.

I do feel like the MLK day storm does have legs but think it might be one of those ENC specials where we are left cold/dry. Still early but just my hunch.

Don't be too sure.... I like it on this side of the fence. Better than fighting mixing issues.

I like where we’re at. I’d be more frantic had we not received some snow on Friday but the pattern looks good and I’m not buying the Barney temps for one second. I’ve seen that outlook before and we nearly missed a storm entirely due to warm temps. I’ve seen others point this out and it’s true, the pattern resembles some of the looks we saw in the 2013/14 winter and we had an absolute big dog near Valentine’s in 2014.

The GFS is super close to being snow instead of rain Saturday morning..gives the mountains wet snow 

6z GFS - rain depiction but very clear snow sounding imby. It’s below 32 until around 4k ft and even then, 35°.

Euro trending colder at 850s, not much more and this might be something to track for foothills and definitely MTNs.
