Crank up the hype - 1 to 2 feet Snowfall Wednesday/Thursday

The TV stations must need ad revenue.

Other reports 6 to 12 in the whites with some models hinting it could get wet at the end.

The weathermen are getting bored. There hasn't been too many storms to report on lately.
I like the weather rock.

Have you seen the SNL bit with Seth Myers as the weatherman? I have tried (and failed) to find a clip of it, but if you've seen it, think of it now.

I was *hoping* someone would mention this imminent storm! I wonder too, how much will really fall up there. Here in MA we are supposed to get a couple inches, at most. We'll see...

For CT, it's a rain event with some snow on the back side, maybe an inch of so but should take more snow than it leaves. Heading up to the Whites mid-week next week so I'll be checking up.

As long as there's big snow in Northern VT, I, for one, will be happy.

Isn't that the Jay Effect? Doesn't it always snow there? I think they got some last night/this morning too.

Enjoy

Let it snow. I still got a little life in these shoes.,

They're calling for 15-20" here in East Hardwick.

MW Obs sez 16-24" in the Whites, and they're not prone to hyperbole.

Here in the Upper Valley they're saying right around a foot; prolly a little sleet and rain thrown in, and a big ugly mess.

The Jay Cloud is a big factor, but big honking storms really help matters too.

The MWOBS high summits forecast now calling for 18-24" with localized 30"+. So...er...what trails get broken out the fastest again??

Good luck to those that need one or two more peaks to finish for the winter 48, and only have this weekend to do it. You will earn those peaks if the weather (snow) comes as predicted.

And be sure to post soon after your hike so I can follow in your tracks on Monday - LOL

Dave, you will be very happy. We got hammered (near Rt 2 in the Northeast Kingdom, VT). Jay Peak is claiming 18-20". Winds are strong - there are some impressive drifts in our driveway!

10 to 12 in Gorham NH at 1400 feet as of 7 AM Thursday. I think the warm temps cut down accumulation early in the storm so lower areas that didn't get the temps may have more. I haven't seen the drifting other report but my solar arrays are going to take some time to melt off ice from early in the storm.

15" in Keene, NY (heart of the High peaks)

About 4" at 700 feet in Thornton.

Looks like we got about 14" of fine, dense snow in East Hardwick (NEK, VT) with maybe another inch or so expected, and heavy wind pushing it around.

20"-22" in the village of Woodstock, VT. I'm guessing the central Greens got the most out of this.
