    It's that time of year, we've sorta accepted it... things definitely moistened up on the mountain, secondary condition is now wet snow....

    We couldn't stay in super powder land forever, even right after this monster Noreaster we'll probably head back to some warmer temps and wetness....



    When they keep saying "2 inches of fresh", "5 inches of fresh" what they mean is some moist snow fell over night and then temps warmed back up over freezing... we're not in continuously cold mode anymore...

    latest guess

    It still looks good for mostly, if not all, snow at summit elevation, 15" +/- 3. Areas below about 1500 feet probably get a mix of everything, though anything over 1000 foot is just a touch over freezing late day Sunday. The good news is that the air gets progressively colder higher up (no inversion). So just keep the fingers crossed it stays cold. Perhaps not a terrible thing if its not fluffy snow as it will be windy Sun. afternoon and Mon, order of 45-70mph winds at the summit.

    ps - just remember its a hobby. this is all based on the 06Z GFS model, there will be another update (12z) around 1pm edt

    NO NO NO, I told you, that's where I draw the line. This noski does have her limits. There will be fireworks, though.... but no dang torchlite parade on the fourth of July!

    Yeah, not a bad thing though assuming we will have a killer base for this time of year and a forecast that would yield some nice spring corn (again ) and there is enough of that that it should stick arround for a while

    ... Winter Storm Warning in effect from 8 am Sunday to 6 PM EDT
    Monday...

    The National Weather Service in Burlington has issued a Winter
    Storm Warning for all of central and northern Vermont... as well as
    all of northern New York... for heavy snow in excess of 6 inches.
    The warning is in effect from 8 am Sunday to 6 PM EDT Monday. The
    Winter Storm Watch is no longer in effect.

    Widespread rain and snow is expected to overspread all of the
    warning area during the late morning to early afternoon hours on
    Sunday. As temperatures cool Sunday night... precipitation will
    change to all snow... which will fall heavily at times through
    Monday morning. As milder air filters into the region during the
    day on Monday... snow will once again mix with... and possibly
    change to rain at times across the region. Total snow accumulation
    is expected to vary widely during this event... with the heaviest
    totals of 10 to 20 inches possible across the northern
    Adirondacks. Elsewhere... accumulations will generally range from 7
    to 14 inches... though locally higher amounts are possible along
    eastern facing slopes of the northern Green Mountains.

    Please stay tuned to NOAA Weather Radio... your local media... or
    go to www.Weather.Gov/Burlington for further updates on this
    weather situation.

    And Noski, we're just trying to make up for the missed torchlight parade from the New Year celebration. It will be fun!

    Just think... You've never had a Warren parade where everyone wore parkas.

    Of course, some of you neighbors (Ok... so most of you neighbors) will want to kill you, but isn't that really just a small price?

    Well,I just got off the mountain and I think it is coming down as a soft, sweet velvety snow.

    How many ways can someone say "This is wonderful!"?

    I think... I may have heard them all in the past few hours.

    Just look at the MRG cam. It's still operating and it's showing a ridiculously heavy snowfall right now.
