Get the bread and milk!

At least I wont slip and fall given the diameter of my rock salt is greater than the forecast accumulation.

This gets a thumbs up from you?! I'd rather read about the relative merits of manual transmissions and how many bras qualify a tree for a bra tree than to hear that the best I can hope for is an inch of snow. :argue:

Your going to piss off the snow gods with that rhetoric!

Ullr will be pleased. He needs a good laugh after his battle with Helios

I'd rather read about 3" of snow than 3" on r@#n. (that word upsets so many people)

Get out the 130 Pontoons! Six inches would be good though. Cant complain about that if it happens, but put this Debby Downer down for the Under on that.

Black line rope drop for sure

Now we just need to get the series of apparent clippers that look be the case every few days over the next 10+ days to keep bring 4-6" (and hopefully more!) and we'll get back in business soon!

Yep, good snowmaking weather too. Potential for a Couple of Miller B's. Things are going to ramp back up slowly but surely. The bridge jumpers can come down.

Sunday River's FB page just posted a news model of 6-12" Saturday night and for much of the Whites. All I've seen is 1-3" if they're lucky. Any reliable updates?

Saturday's GFS at this point predicts 4-6 in the Whites and 6-8 in West Central Maine.

NWS GRAY MAINE WRITES:

A quick-moving low pressure system will move nearby Saturday. Here is a first crack at snow totals for tomorrow. This situation is a bit more tricky than normal due to the quick moving nature of the system, the relatively small area of intense lift that will help cause heavy precipitation, and surface temperatures in the 30s. At this time it looks like snow or a rain/snow mix should begin Saturday morning (with all rain possible at the immediate coast). As the low starts to strengthen, any mix should go over to snow late morning or early afternoon...and it should snow hard during the afternoon and perhaps into early evening (a heavy wet snow). It's not out of the question that a few spots will end up in the 5-8 inch range but we will continue to monitor trends in the data overnight.

I'm looking forward to soft turns on whatever we get.

Great weather info, very useful for a newbie to New England

 

[ijenn]

Thanks for the info! Hiking in the Whites tomorrow (Surprise & Moriah) and it's great to see some snow totals.

 

[dlague]

We are in central Nh and we have about 3-4 inches so far! More expected over night! Thank god!

Don't knock that 1-3" of snow we got last Thursday! It gave us a really nice coating of powder up at Killington and turned what was a pretty dismal landscape of brown to wintery white. It really lifted up our spirits after watching it rain all day Tuesday and then a warm Wednesday where I couldn't remember ever seeing so much grass on the sides of the trails. At least it looked and felt like winter and it did make for better conditions too.

Made things rather foggy in the higher elevation though but I wasn't complaining. Better white then wet!
