Wet and heavy

Something happened to that link, so here is a copy from NOAA's website:

Hazardous Weather Outlook
Winter Storm Warning

This Afternoon: Periods of snow. Steady temperature around 34. North wind around 6 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. Total daytime snow accumulation of 4 to 8 inches possible.

Tonight: Periods of snow. Low around 30. North wind between 7 and 10 mph, with gusts as high as 21 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. New snow accumulation of 3 to 7 inches possible.

Friday: Periods of snow. High near 31. Northwest wind between 13 and 15 mph, with gusts as high as 31 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. New snow accumulation of 2 to 4 inches possible

Yeay, snow!

In my neck of the woods they're still predicting on to three inches of snow, hopefully that will increase

As of noon,Jay is reporting heavy snow with 3-4 inches on the ground.A foot or more is possible.The main page says"may your first turns be powder"!!!

Lets hope that this storm is indicative of storms to come this year, not the snow part(although that would be nice), but the cold air arriving EARLIER than forcasted. Last year it seems liek the majority of the time the cold air was taking LONGER than forcasted to arrive and thus keep the snowfall totals down

"A foot or more is possible"

First snow at jay, first tall tale from jay.
They are the worst with snow reporting.

Actually, this is the third snow at Jay and they under reported their second. Though I agree with the sentiment, their reports are not to be taken at face value. But a foot at Jay for this storm seems reasonable given the change in the pattern which now seems to favor Northern VT more than NH and ME per powerfreak.

Any snow you get in New England can directly attributed to me moving to Colorado. The same goes for the warm dry weather we have been experiencing. Tomorrow is the last day I go out until it snows, I have six days between copper and loveland on a variety of four runs, it's fun but such a tease looking at the stuff I really want to ski. Mountain biking from my front door on the other hand......

Talking with long time residents on the lifts and bars the snowpack is far less than normal. Many areas are delaying opening including Vail and Steamboat. Utah dosn't look much better. The forecast may improve early next week. This is a case in point that western areas don't have nearly the snowmaking capacity as northeast areas.
