Oh, probably not much more...should be ending eve/overnight.

I am not trying to be pain. I am trying to figure out how much snow we will be driving through on early Friday morning to get there. So how much is falling from Thursday night into early Friday morning?

No worries--looks like light snow/mix develops across MA just before daybreak with snow pushing north into NH during the AM...should be mainly an all day event, then snow winding down up north Friday night. If you get a decent start tomorrow morning you should stay ahead of most of it. Hope that helps.

gotta head out for now--will check back later today.

Yeah, Sunday looks good. K-ton may even miss out on Friday's mixing and may adjust accumulations up a bit but still evaluating--still a very close call. Monday turns sloppy for all.

Um, but Winnchill, you just called for:
"
Monday and Tuesday--Clouding up again with a beefy storm approaching on Monday. A lot more moisture, stronger dynamics and a further inland track meaning a good chance of a rainy mix, starting off as some snow/ice during the day and ending as snow overnight--snow levels look to spike well above summit level (around 9,000'). Strong, shifting winds again too. Temperatures and snow levels crash back down behind this storm on Tuesday with snow showers tapering off and gusty northwesterly winds (wind holds possible)--CT"


Base temps at 34. Last time temps were like that, the mountain had spectacular snow, especially at/near top half. what makes you think the snow won't happen below 9000'? Inquiring minds want to know...



I feel like I'm getting a little sick on Sunday night :blink:

Ow yea. I will be out. I saw your post about a schedule change. I know where you will be and vise versa.

If I actually pull that off it will be nothing short of a miracle! Screw it they will own me in a couple short months, might as well be a high maitenence chef while I can

Surface temps don't reflect what is going on aloft--you have to look at a cross section of the atmosphere to take everything into account. Too much warm air aloft will melt falling snow. Just a bad track on this one. :sad:
