Where do I look at for the Catskills version of this?
I have not found them all. you have to go to each weather forecast office and troll around.
I'm not real familiar with the cats. Do these cover it?

It just restarted here in Lex. moderate to heavy again. Was dry for abt an hour.
You'll get yours. But I'd rather give it to Magic

It seems that the storm is transitioning into more upslope style snows in vermont.

Just came off the hill at SR... easily 8+... not the totals of some of the VT places, but I had a HELL of a day out there...
Still coming down pretty good... Russ (SR's forecaster) is calling for 16"+ at elevation by the time it's done.
No lines out there today, plenty of powder to go around... had a smile on my face all day.

For you, yes, but not for central/northern Vt..... But I am NOT complaining at the upgrade from weather advisory to winter storm warning! Still coming down nicely in the MRV!

Time to go shred some pow. In my driveway. The beast is tanked up and the auger is hungry!!
And unless something very unexpected and annoying happens, I expect to be at Magic tomorrow - whoo hoo!!

Anyone know how much they got in the Brattleboro area? About 20" here in CT. I have to say, they weather forecast ws pretty accurate on this one; from timing to amounts, they did good.
We just got back from running errands. Side roads are a mess. I wouldn't be surprised if school is cancelled again tomorrow. No mail delivery today. And a package I have coming from UPS got delayed.
I'll try and post some pics of the snowblowing adventure.

Judging by that graphic Bill posted Brattleboro got heavily pounded.

the graphic was a forecast. I'm hoping the upslope magnified that even more.
Here are some spotter readings:

Read the timestamps carefully, cause it kept snowing after many of those readings were taken.

Today at Burke was awesome. We were expecting a couple of inches but instead we got a solid foot. The mountain was empty and we rode glades most of the day. At first we were ducking ropes but it snowed enough for ski patrol to open the trails half through the afternoon. Wilderness and Saskwatch were awesome. It was a welcome unexpected snowfall which did the mountain a ton of good. With this new snow they should be open 100% with most glades after this snowfall. Tomorrow and MLK weekend should be pretty good.

I would say AT LEAST that much. I'm about 20 miles southeast of there and have 20" of nice fluffy powder. The throat on the snowblower is 20" high and I was right at the limit until I got to the street where I buried it.

Same thing in Eastern CT. I was right at the 20" throat limit, and then bam, I hit where the plow had done it's thing and for the first time in a LONG time I was wishing that I had the drift cutter bars on my snowblower - easily 3 feet plus at the end of my driveway.
Took me 3 hours and 2 tanks of gas to get my 200+ foot driveway, front walk, back patio, and path around my house to both the oil tank and propane tank cleared.
For the 1st time in a long time, I feel like i'd be a hypocrit if I said to someone, "well that storm wasn't too bad, I remember the one when I was a kid ....." :lol:
