Looks like a nice "surprise stinger" for NNE. These are the best. SNE gets mix and rain and folks don't realize NNE got the goods. Makes for less than average crowds considering there is powder to be had.

It looks like Southern Vermont will get a mix of snow/sleet/freezing rain in the 3-5" range. Magic could really use a good 6-12" to get going.

Local weatherman is calling for 6-10 up around Sunday River. Some stick with the snow will definately help cover up some of that "New England Packed Powder" (aka boilerplate). Looks as though we have a few more storms on the horizon so heres hoping....

Stormtracker GrilledSteezeSandwich was just outside. It's incredibly slippery out there..a thin sheen of ice with light rain falling in 30 degree temperatures and flash freezing on contact with all surfaces..even the grass is slippery. The wooden steps leading into my building were unsalted so I just salted them..it's not my job but if 5 minutes of salting can save someone from an injury it's worth it. So when I reached for the bucket of salt to take back into the lobby...I stepped in a slick spot I had just salted and was really close to going ass over teakettle..My arm is still sore from the recovery..wowser..no witnesses unless somebody saw me through their blinds. If a tree falls in the woods and nobody hears it, does it make a sound????

I'm fairly certain that nothing that ever happens in your life will go unremarked upon.
