This seems more like it. Snow in the mountains and NCP in boston. I went to bed 10-15 projected in the White mountains. 10 to 20 last report I heard in the White's. We finally get a storm. All those who go today and tomorrow, Congrats

We've got about 8" on the ground so far in the Mad River Valley with another foot on the way throughout the day and into the night. What's more, the next week looks pretty good as well.

Any reports from central NH? I'm trying to figure out how far north I'll have to travel this weekend for decent snow...

SUnappe says 5 inches at teh summit so far, and still falling. I'm wondering how far north to go, too.

Loon Reporting 7 inches at top 2 at base so far. Cannon and Bretton Woods always seem to come in with the highests totals.

Here's what they're saying on Sugarbush's web site. Hopefully this is not too optimistic.

*ENHANCED OROGRAPHIC UPLIFT AND SLOW MOVING STORM SHOULD MEAN 2 FEET HERE BY TOMORROW OR SATURDAY AND BEST WEEKEND OF SKIING THIS WINTER

Even our prediction of 10-12" from Monday was conservative from this storm and yesterday morning we updated snowfall maps to as high as 1-2 feet with this particular storm. I still think when it is all said and done, amounts here could be close to two feet by later Friday, or by early Saturday with the off and on light snow that falls following this storm. Most forecasters are predicting total amounts now around 15-18" but I think that is even too low if we include the mountain enhanced snowfall and off and on light snows into Saturday.

Any of these places reasonable for a day trip from Nashua? I've considered them but I'm concerned about the drive times.

Don't know specific drive times from Nashua but I'd definately say yes. We live about 25 miles S of Providence. It's about 3 hours (perhaps a tad more) to Loon and we can make Bretton Woods in about 4 hours. Cannon is closer than BW. Our day trip tolerance is about 3 hours each way. More than that and it gets pretty tedious.
