that picture is in stark contrast with the other forecasts. Is that from NOW through Wed. night? I'm skeptical.
It's just started to snow in Londonderry.
Be careful of the winds. NWS is forecasting high winds on Friday for VT. Thurs will be a good day if you want to be inbetween storms.Could Thursday be the day? I am so confused on what day will be the best. Need help!!!!!!!
I'm all for skeptical...
Yes, that's through tomorrow night. It's a Maine station, so I wouldn't be surprised if it's skewed that way.
I haven't looked at much else because I'm spiraling into depression that I'm going to be chained to my desk for the rest of the week.

Tuesday morning forecsts:
NWS Burlington mountain forecast says:
* 8 TO 12 INCHES IN THE SOUTHERN GREEN MOUNTAINS AND EASTERN
ADIRONDACKS...AND 4 TO 8 INCHES IN NORTHERN VERMONT AND THE
CHAMPLAIN VALLEY.
NWS Albany, which ostensibly has a "better" forecast says:
THE POTENTIAL EXISTS FOR NINE OR MORE INCHES OF SNOW TO AFFECT
EASTERN NEW YORK AND ADJACENT WESTERN NEW ENGLAND IN 24 HOURS.
SNOW IS EXPECTED TO SPREAD NORTHWARD THIS AFTERNOON...INCREASING
IN INTENSITY THIS EVENING...THEN TAPERING OFF LATE WEDNESDAY.
That's what I'm worried about. I'm heading up to Bethel tonight but I'm concerned that the lifts won't be running especially Thursday. How well does Saddleback hold up in strong winds?
Damned work:

I have no idea on Saddleback wind holds, might want to search the forum.
You are all welcome! Ah well it's supposed to snow in Utah tomorrow too. It's all good!
