A little snow, a little sleet, a little freezing rain in SoVT. School's are closed, Dew Tour competitors are practicing in the rain. Yuck. Al least the sleety, freezing rain will be a nice solid base coat on the natural trails...

Tell that to the tree's and powerlines which continue to sag lower. I also live at 815' in elevation and surface temperatures here are cold as we have 2-4" of snowpack.

Well that storm sucked. :-?
2-3 inches here in St J. Then turned directly to freezing rain. Now the storm is breaking up and we may get 1-2 more inches. So much for 6-10" :evil: we could have really used that. Stupid upper level warm air :evil:
Looks like Whiteface may have faired pretty well.

I got a dusting last night then it turned to freezing rain. I had to clean almost a half and inch of ice off my car at 3:30 AM so I could drive to work in the freezing rain, fun stuff.

A storm that was predicted to leave originally 6-8 inches in S. NH left only about 3 with sleet and freezing rain/rain from what I heard. These storms continue to bust for SNE.

Anyone know how Sugarloaf/Saddleback faired from this storm? Was thinking of heading up early tomorrow morning but noticed some freezing rain on the radar........

We got a few an inch or two of snow/sleet with freezing rain on top. The trees are all glazed with probably a 1/4 - 1/2 of ice. Any more and it would be bad. Scraping off the driveway this evening was not fun. Luckily, my wife attacked it this afternoon and got it about half done. Gotta get that shit cleared before it freezes. Gonna be pretty cold the next few days. Still 32 degrees and it looks like one more round of rain at least.
