FYI on your beautiful weather tool page....your web cam labeled, "Keene" really is the base lodge at Whiteface Mountain, between Lake Placid and Wilmington, New York. Hope to see you there sometime!

N NH bullseye? I collected these reports from Twitter & websites: Stowe 6-18 with 12 at the stake; Smuggs 10-12 up top; Jay 7-8 at base and snowing heavily as of 7:15 a.m. (NWS spotter reported 10.0 on Rte 105 at 5:48 a.m.); Killington 10" wet snow up top; Bretton Woods 14-18; nothing this a.m. from Cannon but at 6p yesterday they said 4 at base, 2x that at summit; SR 6-8 atop Locke; 'Loaf 8 at base, more up top.

Skiing will be done today but this storm wasn't quite the juggernaut it was looking to be; we had the precip and wind, it just wasn't cold enough.

I'd expect the last few inches in the northern mountains to be of the drier type but not by much. This will primarily be a heavy, caking snow as there really isn't much cold air to wrap into this system. I'm starting to think I'm too high on snow accums below 2,000ft as its still pretty warm (ie. 36F at 1,640ft at the base of Stowe) and ratios are going to be awful below 2K feet (like 6-8:1). However, the Stowe cam is showing snow above 2,000ft right now with the trails are now white on the upper half of the mountain. What happens between now and say 7am tomorrow makes or breaks this storm! Yeah. I’d expect the last few inches in the northern mountains to be of the drier type but not by much.

North of rt 2 the final snow will fall off a stiff nnw wind upsloping over the greens. You can expect that to be dry although due to temps in the mid 20s snow quality may be needles which are denser than large dendrite flakes. Further siuth the only snow will be from the low pressure itself most of which will fall as wet flakes. That is my understanding at least. Scott? Depends where you are talking about.
