Please don't misinterpret the map -- Vermont is not being singled out. Except for Wildcat maybe (?), it's pure garbage for NH too.

Not misinterpreting the map. I know that is only a single panel out of a series that make up the entire output of the storm prediction. I just like how that one panel has the wedge of rain so perfectly centered on VT. The next panel probably has NH in mostly green and yellow too.

The next panel will probably resemble a giant middle finger over all of New England.

I wouldn't rule out Northern VT mountains with decent elevation (most of them besides Burke) as a mostly if not all snow event, even if it's less than it looked like a few days ago.

Forecasts I'm looking at are guessing above 2000 feet should remain snow for the duration.

I'd go skiing in No VT, No NH or Maine this weekend because this might be the best shot for the rest of the season.

If the models do hold,and you want good conditions this weekend, Mont Tremblant is the only serious choice.

But that graphic in particular, with the green wedge of rain shooting perfectly up into VT, is the icing on the cake for this season.

The Canuck is entirely missing south, and sadly, an entire MISS for the n.VT is now the better option.

Has some support from the not-quite-in-range NAM too.

Just a 50 mile shift north for Friday could mean the Flatland resorts do great, with S VT and NH making out with SOMETHING as well. The ski resort accountants and Ullr know we need it...

Since my dog died last summer, skiing has literally been the only thing that makes me happy. Period.

And we get this sh1t sandwich of a season.

Wonderful!

It appears sugarloaf and Sunday river fall into the >6" range, no?

I ran over a skunk on the way home last night. Aside from the immediate anguish of having my car reek, it was a live reminder that spring is here far too early. Even the animals know it.

The animals always know before us

This is about all the hope I have left... Epic March and April.

Sugarloaf has 5" and counting. Jay has 4" and still coming down. 6" and counting at Wildcat.

Mid NH / Mid VT got an inch or two with a mix but didn't get hurt.

So VT, Mass and points south mostly got an icing or a soaking.

So sorry to hear. Hope for a good corn harvest in the upcoming weeks.

I still have a ticket to burn at Bromont. It looks like the Eastern Townships didn't do well.

Sutton, for example says this in today's snow report:
24 hour snowfall: 1cm
Surface : packed, granular, mogul, firm, variable, windblown
Base : firm, icy, hard
Coverage : thin (natural snow), complete (man-made snow)

Bromont got double the snow Sutton got. 2cm, lol!

Rain turning to snow in Franconia. Total wash out this morning.

BenedictGomez · Mar 2, 2016

So much snow is expected in the Sierras, I think they broke the GFS snowfall model.

Pure snow porn depiction.

wtcobb · Mar 2, 2016

Woah. I thought I was looking at a weird belt of no snow for a second. How much for a flight to Reno?

I just keep telling myself East Coast is where the hardcore is at, and it's best to treat myself to western locations only once in a while not to spoil myself.

That said... we did update our RCI timeshare membership so that I can basically go anywhere in the world for $19 a night. Tahoe, Park City, Big Sky and western Canada are all on the radar for next season.

Does that say 95 inches in the general vicinity of Mammoth? Good God.
