Still hitting mt snow. I should f headed north in the sucker hole. O well.

I've been checking the radar religiously for northern/central VT. They are getting robbed. Almost no snow. Radar over loon looked way better, sad to hear they are doing so poorly. This storm has taken a nasty vertical movement...Maine and Berkshires are the places to be tomorrow

Nope, storm has barely started up there, plus the radar sucks up there. The beam doesn't pick up precip on the eastern slopes of the mountains.

Friend says its dumping 1-2 inches per hour at Stowe right now. Radar can't pick it up, this happens every nor'easter.

Looking good for whaleback! I bet we have 7+ and the second band should hit overnight....my husband shoveled the driveway, went down to the basement to spin, came up an hour later and shoveled 4 more inches of snow!

Anyone in southern VT? Is it light snow or wet snow? Here in CT it was powdery but then with a switchover, it got heavier with a crust.

Low is going bonkers off the Jersey shore. Already down to 988mb and rapidly deepening. As a result thunderstorms are exploding just off or on the coast and moving due north. Thundersnow en route.

Mods: How do I "Like" this post?

Thanks,

Sleet with thunder and lightning, now turned back to snow.

Thanks for the correction - but maybe that is now and when I posted it was different for most of the day.

Just found out the snow is suppose to really pickup around midnight in VT. :-D

I hope they get nuked!

It's raining here on the Jersey Shore. Glad to be going where it's snowing! Concerned about the winds tomorrow. Saying 20-30mph winds. Yuck. Hope it's not that bad.

Thunder and lightning with sleet in Westchester with dropping temo. Should turn over soon. Love the energy of this system. Wondering who's gonna get to 2 feet first.

Pounding sleep here. Hopefully someone around here is staying all snow.

I know Gunstock had 7 inches of fluffy snow on the ground at 5pm today but they've had some mix according to my weather apps. Changing back to snow by 3am. Going to be some interesting conditions when I get there in the morning.

Well it better start doing something soon, the 1.5 inches we've gotten so far is way below the 6" minimum that I need to make hiking Burke in the morning worth it. HUGE dry slot over VT right now.
Looks like a bunch of HEAVY precip in S NE.

Another 4 inches of snow on my car since I got home last night around 7 pm about 65 miles away from the Catskills. I bet today will be beyond epic for Lucky ones. Not complaining I had some great snow this winter enough memories and winter isn't over yet.

 

[Savemeasammy]

West of Pats Peak we probably have 8-10ish inches total - 2 of which are heavy and wet that fell overnight - along with a period of sleet last night. Hopefully areas west and north of us fared better. This will be a good base-builder for sure. We will need it. Temps next week are not snow-preservation friendly...

Now I understand why people who live in the mountains drive trucks high clearance. Snow tires don't help when snow is high on curve road that has plows driving but mot clearing snow.
