· Humbled this morning by the amounts of snow that fell overnight in a very concentrated band of 4 to 5.5” across a swath in northern Washington-southern Lamoille county this morning. Modeling = Big fail.

· Today…”many hours” of decent weather but wait – the next weather system brings more moistur5e off the Great Lakes and will arrive later this evening and unload some fluffy dusting to 2” amounts overnight or so says the modeling.

· Temperatures get much colder Thursday night below zero into the teens and highs barely recover into the single digits pushing closer to 10 above Friday with an arctic dome of high pressure.

· Zippy but moisture loaded system moves in Saturday mostly S. Vermont good for another 1 to locally 3” followed by a string of over-running warmer air and transition to treacherous travel with mixed precip transition to rain – UGH!

· Bottom line – if a skier snow shoe’r – do your outdoor adventures before Sunday and the crust ruins our lovely accrued snowfall as its bliss out there – fantastic is an understatement.
