The Official 1/1/2008 Storm Thread

hammer · Jan 1, 2008, 1:00 PM

Just got back from Pats Peak, where the snow started to come down just after 11AM. Encountered light to moderate snow on the drive from Concord, NH to Nashua, NH, but the roads weren't completely covered with snow yet.

Saw the aftermath of several spinouts...drive carefully out there.

I think we switched back to the colder side of the storm, now we have thick fog and moderate snow covering my plowed driveway again.

We have extremely dense fog with <100' visibility and 32F. We probably got about 2" of snow/sleet today.

The changeover in the Boston area must not have made it too far north...stayed all snow just south of the MA/NH border.

Almost 2", then some rain and it settled to an inch of glop. Yay. Another bust.

Built a cool snowman with the kids today though...

It's snowing to beat the band in Maine. Sugarloaf should have a sweet January even if It does get warm.

12-15" new at Sugarloaf and still snowing. 13" new at Sunday River.

14" of new at Saddleback and the America trail makes it's first debut.

Eh... not as much of a bust since the forecast was much lower. Sunday was a lot more disappointing... I think I got more here yesterday than Sunday haha.
