The Official 4/15 - 4/17 Storm Discussion Thread

The Gray/Maine office of the NWS has issued a Winter Storm Watch for the Sugarloaf region.

Here we go again. There is already an amazing amount of snow here in Rangeley for mid-April with lots of snowmobilers zipping across Rangeley Lake out the back door of our hotel.

Unless it's indoor, prolly a big definite. NOAA says wild weather is on the way.

The NWS is forecasting 2' above 1,500' which is all of Sugarloaf.

We skied Sunday River today with bright sunshine.

If anyone lives in southern VT or vicinity, would appreciate your
weather reports 4/15 Sunday A.M. as you see it happen. I'm assessing
if travel to Mount Snow is as hazardous as NOAA warns, though it
seems like the snow will not be heavy til evening:

http://www.erh.noaa.gov/forecast/MapClick.php?CityName=West+Dover&state=VT&site=ALY

<DUE TO THE LIKELIHOOD OF SIGNIFICANT ACCUMULATIONS OF WET HEAVY SNOW...THE POTENTIAL EXISTS THAT SCATTERED POWER OUTAGES MAY OCCUR IN AREAS WHERE SNOW LOAD BECOMES EXCESSIVE. IF YOU ARE PLANNING TRAVEL OR OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY...YOU SHOULD MONITOR LATER FORECASTS AND STATEMENTS FROM THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE...AS TRAVEL WILL LIKELY BECOME HAZARDOUS ACROSS THE AREA.

 

[loafer89]

The latest forecast for Western Maine calls for 1-2" of snow by dark tomorrow, 7-11" of snow overnight and heavy snow on monday with another 12".

We are moving to Stratton after skiing Saddleback on sunday to be 7 miles from Sugarloaf from monday-wednesday.

The powder skiing should be great once the wind relaxes late tuesday or wednesday.

Heavy snow here. Many radars show rain over here but the ever trusty wunderground.com rain/snow radad has the snow lines right down I-290 and I-91... everything to the east of 290 is rain and everything to the southwest of 91 is rain. In between, heavy snow.
