What is Happenning in NH

[HD333]

Anyone have first hand experiance with the weather in NH? Specifically the Lakes Region? Snow? R word? Mix?

Thanks!

Raining on the seacoast, but I'm told the 'slush line' isn't too far up the road. I'd imagine it's snowing at Gunstock for you.

Thanks for the update. Heading up Tomorrow night, hopefully it stays white.

I would like to know the snow's consistency. It is probably wet and heavy at Sunapee, but any info on Cannon?

 

[deadheadskier]

I have a friend in Essex Vermont that is saying it's wet and heavy up there. Certainly doesn't account for the elevation, but I'd imagine this is the case most places. To be honest, with how low the base is in the woods everywhere but Northern VT, the wetter and heavier the better.

Plymouth heavy wet snow. footish so far

I figured that much. Not quite a pow day. I am playing it by ear for Thurs or Friday.

Sunapee was pretty good this morning. Snow is wind affected ranging from ~4"-12". Not much fun on mogul skis, unless you're on Flying Goose. We worked a couple sweet lines in. Only the North Peak and terrain park lifts are running. "Wind hold" my ass. If the precip stays white Thursday should be great!

Would be nice if they get enough to keep the glades open through next week...concerned about the NCP tomorrow/Friday.

Forecast seems totally dependant on elevation. Snow-Forecast is showing bunch of ***n at the bottom, but snow up top. That's only a 1500' difference.

Just need to keep the fingers crossed and see how it pans out.

I'm refusing to believe anything but the NWS forecast that's calling for an additional 9-13" for Bartlett tomorrow.

and with the 3:00PM update, its down to 3-7"

but the non-snowflakes have disappeared from the forecast illustrations....

powbumps nailed it dead on. I traveled with my gps altimeter on up and back and correlated the weather. Try to get on snow at elevations of 1500 to 2000 feet +

Say what?? I live in Ashland and we only got a few inches and it has been raining for quite some time. How did you get a foot in Plymouth? You up around mountain Plymouth at elevation?

Any predictions on next week? Will there be enough wrap-around to get some decent accumulations in central NH?

Just enough to scrape us Mon/Tues with another ocean storm (further out to sea though)...more so for the Whites in a northerly flow than central/south.

Puking snow at Wildcat now as per staff report...west facing slope so lifts avoiding winds at the moment.

Attitash just turned to all snow with the heavy stuff moving in now!

Going to stay for a while or switch back to the wet stuff?

 

[WinnChill]

I pulled the trigger and upped their totals...seems the heavy snow is helping suppress the snow levels and may offset the wind's effect this afternoon...still a tough call but with the totals they're getting, a little rain may not have that much affect on them.

Driving back from Burke today It was all rain from Cannon and south
