Last nights LE powder was a welcome sight here in the ROC region--- it's pretty out my window right now
Looks like West will be the place to be. A Christmas miracle for them...
Only bolsters my desire to get to Utah, Pow Mow and Snow Basin etc in January.
Look at those numbers...

Have fun out there.

The latest NY forecast seems to have gotten SLIGHTLY colder, for Christmas Day. He said hopefully. Still not like SNOW or anything but a smaller window for mixed or worse.

NWS ALY

.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...

Biggest question then becomes late Saturday night, as an initial
surface low approaching western NYS then redevelops off the
southeast New England coast. The GFS redevelops this low much
more quickly, and also allows for an inverted trough/deformation
area to persist across the southern Adirondacks into southern VT
before settling southward. This scenario would favor any mixed
precipitation changing back to snow for northern areas, with
perhaps several additional inches of snow accumulation possible
across the southern Adirondacks into southern VT, if not further
south. Other models remain much more progressive with
redeveloping low, with precipitation tapering off prior to
daybreak Sunday, and much less snowfall for northern areas.

Sadly ^^ that shred of hope seems to have vanished. Christmas looking a bit grinchy.

Too bad. Woke up to about 2” of light fluffy snow in Albany and still coming down but sounds like will be gone by tomorrow.

It’s amazing how the stuff ends at border lines.
Urll must have been reprogrammed.

I use the NWS in Burlington, they only cover VT and the Northern tier of NYS.

Have a friend from Atlanta doing a last minute trip to Alta right after New Year's Day. Her college DD is off until Jan. 10.

Have been watching the Wolf Creek forecasts on OpenSnow since leaving there on Dec. 18. Only place that's been 100% open in Colorado since mid-Dec. Had a very good time that week.
