Storm Speculation: 1/19/15

In terms of a storm... you're right!

NOT TWSS!

Skiing is really good up here!  

Consider areas like Utah, the Alta snow record shows no considerable amounts since 12/29 - that's a long time for them and the reported snow pack is not "Alta as usual". Mt Mansfield has been getting  more snow lately.

Potential BIG  Monday and Tues for NORTHERN VT... Stowe , Smuggs and Jay could be Huge!!!!

Seems like snow totals for NY (and VT) are being lowered.  Storm track has moved a bit west, so I get that, but I don't totally understand how this will evolve.  I assuming the higher VT totals must come at the end with orographics.

Well if that was the case they should at least update their snow tracker: http://www.alta.com/pages/snowfallhistory.php

Uplsope after the storm will nail Northern VT, looks like some rain tomorrow followed by not much of anything.

Yeah we can't have P being proved wrong about something

This is a little "old" (over 12 hours) but here it is:

Which they finally did - with 19.5" on the 12th.

Does look like the Adirondacks dodged the bullet. It never really rained at the SW end of the High Peaks, a little wet snow was about it.

Killington claiming 14 inches, jay 10 with another 4 today.  Mad river 8 to 10.  Sugarbush 6 at base 12 at summit.

Everyone will get another 3 today....

At higher elevations in the Adirondacks (at least where I was) there was at least 5-6 inches of new snow, probably more. Didn't look like much rain at all.

I haven't done any climbing in about a week and to hear there was a good 5 to 6" of new snow is great news, the snow we had at lower elevations was mixed with sleet but it skis really well. The woods are not too bad right now, kind of a slow buttery feel.

Woke up and was very dubious about Kmart report. It was true, and snowed another 3" by closing. Spent all day in the woods. Best day of the year for me so far. Ride home was tough, multiple accidents closed pass to Rutland, had to go the long way. Vermont big winner with this storm. Nobody there either walked onto all lifts including K1 all day.
