Surprised this thread isn’t more active today. Final prediction for southern VT is 5-10“. Hopefully more in the mountains.

NWS says 12-18 for Stratton. Wouldn’t be surprised at 18” for upper mountain elevations.

Accumulation approaching an inch in franconia nh, elevation 1250'.

2,300’ at Bromley 10:40am 4” and S+ at 30.4 degrees. NWS shifting the higher peaks to 12-18” does NOT mean they expect 18”, just confident more than 12”. This is a fast mover so I don’t think it has 18” in it, other than a rare spot that gets under a pivoting band which is impossible to forecast.

Turkey turns. Left at noon with 6” and returned at 3 with 10”. Still dumping but the end is near.

Killington reporting 21".

Gotta be 18"+ at stratton with magic reporting 16" at peak.

I know you fancy yourself as some kinda weather forecasting expert and actually pay for a service so thanks for explaining to me what 12-18 means on a forecast map

Ha happy to be wrong on the low side. 14” here and it was deeper up top when I skinned so yeah 18” at the peaks. If you don’t like the weather commentary I’ll keep it to myself.

Things are looking up for Northeastern skiers & riders, with healthy recent snowfall and more on the way.
Cold and unsettled weather continues this week. Pow skiing potential peaks on Thursday, but decent conditions should last into the weekend.
By Friday morning, expect storm totals something like this:

• 5-8″ for most Vermont resorts. 9-14″ for Jay Peak, 7-11″ for Stratton & Bromley (lake effect enhances totals)
• 3-6″ for New Hampshire resorts
• 5-9″ for the bigger Maine Resorts
• 4-7″ for Whiteface & Gore
• 1-3″ for Catskill resorts
