Hopefully not headed this way....

 

Thanks for that..... i hopped on fhc to explain what I'm seeing, about the same.... up to a foot and a half. Should be interesting with the 30 mph gusts!

 

I like how they use the words "explosively deepening snow" I've never heard it put like that before......
I best get more fuel and free up the genny

I've never seen this before, and doesn't affect is at all. This is for Mt. Washington a half hour east. Heads up hikers or alpine skiers.

 

thewoodlands, we're edging toward 5" at this point, honestly, i expected more by now, but it's snowing hard, I'd say 1- 2" per hour. If this continues, we'll see at least a foot.
