About an inch on the ground when I left Hunter Mountain this morning - temp about 29f... Local schools are doing early releases...

Hardly any snow in Albany...

Snowing like crazy in Hopewell Junction (just east of Poughkeepsie), but no accumulation yet. Just south and east of there, all sleet/freezing rain.

I like these threads. Not supposed to start snow in boston until after midnight, but snowing fairly hard here at this point. 1-4 4-8 are the totals I have heard for north or concord New Hampshire no change over expexted in the White's.

**bvibert** · Jan 5, 2005, 8:45 AM

I hope the switch over to NCP that they're predicting for around here never happens! I'm thinking of going up to Sundown tonight after work.

**thetrailboss** · Jan 5, 2005, 8:49 AM

Forecast is for all snow in NH/VT I believe. It will be good.

highpeaksdrifter · Jan 5, 2005, 9:21 AM

2 - 4 inches forcast for Northern Adks. Even that little bit makes me feel better. Light snow falling at Whiteface as of 10:00am.

JD · Jan 5, 2005, 10:02 AM

ditto!

Snowing like a monkey here in Boston. Nothing's sticking yet, though. Fingers are crossed to NH.

Mmmm, fresh snow...

13:55 - Snow came through and stopped. You'd never know it snowed here. Looking at the RADAR loop on Intellicast

Shows the main body of the storm over Lake Erie and moving East fast.
