Be safe people. Likely to be a nasty drive to the north country today. I'm heading out first thing in the am. 5:45am in the car gets me on the Whiteface gondi shortly after 9:00, assuming the 3:15 minute trip takes 3:15. Roads should be clear by then. Allow extra drive time today.

Close to 4" on the ground in Putney,VT and snowing hard. Dense, sticky snow.Perfect stuff for sticking to and covering up the boilerplate base we've got now! Looks like the storm has shifted to bring SoVt the goods!

Wow! Great link! Looks like they have a webcam by the Welcome Center. That'll be perfect for checking things before leaving.

Oh dear! It's all purple ("difficult") in the lower half of the state!!!
Surprisingly, the northern half was reported to be in ok condition.
The way the snow gradiant seems to be setting up on this one, Essex Co, NY into Central/Southern VT are lined up to take the brunt, with a sharp decline in snowfall amounts as you move north. Northern VT looking at 2-6, with trace to 2 up near the VT/Canadian border. Hopefully the mountain resorts up there squeeze out a little xtra. Roads might not get as bad in the NE Kingdom, but you still gotta get through the rest of VT to get there, so be careful.
It's so exciting watching the storm set up from here knowing I'll be skiing tomorrow where (hopefully) the worst of it hits. Kid in a candy store.

Between the start of I-91 (6 miles south of the Brattleboro area) and the end of I-91 (near Derby Line). Driving conditions are difficult. Look out for icy patches. Look out for packed snow on the roadway. Look out for snow on the roadway.

Between Exit 1: US 5 and Exit 2: VT 9 (Brattleboro). The road is closed to traffic due to numerous accidents. For the next 45 mins.

Don't drive into the North Country tonight without a reservation first. I've turned away about ten people already and while I think there are still a couple of rooms left in the valley, there probably won't be by the time you get here.

+10 I was just looking at Mad River Barn. It is booked solid through Saturday night. Then it opens up big time. Glad I'm not skiing until Sunday! Looking for the places that drop their holiday rates on Sunday.

Noski can help until 6pm in MRV
I will "man the phones" to help travelers find rooms in the MRV tonight until 6pm. 1-800-82-VISIT. So if Sugarbush/MRG bound, I can assist- though the answer may still be "sorry!"...

Hey, someone usually posts a link to a good radar animation by now...
Anyone have a good one that includes different colors for different types of precip?
I should bookmark one, but I can't find!
