Looks like we finally have some hope

The 7AM report from my back deck at Mount Snow courtesy of my wife had just an inch so far

A text from Canyon Quad about 10:30 has it at about 2" now.

Not exactly falling at an epic rate so far

I "think" it may ramp up later this evening...according to NWS at least. I can only hope!

Is Mrs. Jeff up there all week?

Originally her and the kids were coming home Monday night. Then her business partner decided to work a couple of extra days this week so that she can take a longer weekend next weekend, and now S has today (Tuesday) and Tommorrow off, so she grabbed the ski day today, and road conditions dependent is either coming home tonight or early tommorrow. She won't be there to watch me quality control Vcunning beertender Saturday evening though

A number of schools in southern NH canceled today...:roll:

Snow starting to stick to parking lot pretty well here in Woburn.

Was out for a bit--had to get away from radar. Some heavier stuff coming in--just hope it holds to get to our minimum range. We were eyeing the southeastern Whites getting some enhanced upslope....again, just hope we can get close to the bottom range at this point. We may be eating this one, but we'll see. :-(

I'm waint for Euller to update us on conditions in SoVT. Looks like they'll do better than we will this time. :beer:

2" in Putney so far and its snowing at a good rate now. Picked up the pace about 1PM here. I'm hoping we might get 4" here and 6 at Mt. Snow...

We'll see....

Looks like a bust for up here.

Un-busting for Woburn... Snow coming down at quite the clip now, plow went by in the parking lot, and it's filling back in pretty quick... Roads still passable, but quite slow going out there right now.

Nashoba and Wa are probably skiing pretty well right now. Blue hills is more a question about when it will change over and back / how much rain they'll get.

Confirm...commute home will be a pain, sure hope that there will be payoff in the hills.

Could be, but let's see how the rest of it pans out.

Plus, we're looking for northwest upslope to contribute more for N VT so hopefully you get in on some.

I'm just wondering how the initial forecast could be so wrong. Just yesterday, Accuweather was saying 6-12, with snow arriving starting at 7:00 AM. This was so wrong that we actually had blue skies for much of the day. Right now it is overcast. I saw two or three flakes (literally) and then we got dry-slotted.

It is freaking dumping here in eastern Mass. Matt Noyes is cranked http://www.mattnoyes.net/new_england_weather/

SoVT is getting pounded

now up to 6 inches on my deck in Putney! And I just happen to have an afternoon of skiing planned for tomorrow!

 

[soulseller]

Anyone have a total for the Princeton area?

I know you're frustrated KingM--going off of Accuwx's forecast, sure, I'd be mad too. I can't say our forecast is/was entirely right either...we originally had 4-7" for you but dropped it down to 2-5" this AM...still keeping in mind that wraparound upslope will start up tonight adding to what we see this PM/evening. We're not out of the woods just yet but it's not looking that great right now. Yes, the timing was off...the data available up til this morning had this thing starting this morning...so understand that we are data dependant and we have to interpret what it says. Up til last night/early this morning, that's what we were seeing. But, hey, there is a storm out there and it is pulling heavy snow across New England as predicted...yes, the timing is off and tracking slightly differently...saying that it's entirely wrong may be overstating it a bit. Deserving of some criticism...sure, but these sorts of things happen when dealing with the edge of a nor'easter, strong or otherwise.

Hey, hope we can get that upslope to add up for you at SB!

I'll bet Magic is gonna rock tomorrow.

WinnChill,

I hear ya. As a skier, a snow lover, and someone whose business is also highly dependent on fresh white stuff falling from the skies, I find it incredibly depressing to look out the window every morning to the same cruddy looking snow.

For god's sake, can I at least get enough tonight to cover up the 50,000+ yellow holes drilled into the snow in the back yard?

 

[wa-loaf]

Just cleared 4 inches off the driveway. Picking up again. I'll probably end up with 6+ once it's done.
