I'm cautiously saying "Finally!"

Stoked!

June 1945: weather forecasting played a key role in Eisenhower deciding to storm the beaches of Normandy, surprising Rommel and the Germans. Weather forecasting gave us D-Day.

Here we are, 61.5 years later, and we have a storm due in **less than 24 hours**, and they can't (or won't?) predict anything more than "more than 6 inches."

Amazing!

WOO-HOO :insertsnowdanceemoticon: What happened to all the good emoticons?

lucky

We can only hope it will come.

i was supposed to work next weekend....maybe not!!! keith you reading this???

Looking good.. They upgraded it to a warning this morning:

Looking good.. They upgraded it to a warning this morning:

Thanks for the great news : thumbs up guy:

Just remember to stay off the ice. The lakes have only a skimming of ice if they have any at all. 10" of snow on 1-2" of ice is an accident and/or drowning waiting to happen. Be careful.

snowing good here...picked up about 2" so far.

Excellent point. Everybody be careful out there.

Same here in Waitsfield. 2" so far.

'bout 2 inches here. I am getting excited!!

snowing pretty good here in quechee, got about an inch or two so far. snow dance

well it started alot early'r then they said it's 1:00 pm now and it's comming down hard !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! maidstone

today's snow looks to be over. We got about 3". Still a Warning for tonight&tomorrow.

Yeah we got about 2-2.5" out of today's little "storm", it's a good start. Still haven't bought my TMA yet, but hopefully I'll end up having to!

anyone know how much groton has got yet or if they still had some for a base thinking about trailering out there tuesday or wednesday if we get enough, even if it's only 20 miles i gotta get out on it

Lyndonville
Round 1 - ~4 inches
Round 2 - ?

UPDATE! Since Rob didn't post this yet I thought I would.

Now Rob at least you have something good to distract you from all the other BS going on, on the site. Keep us updated to what has fallen at your house. I know I will be up and riding out of Kirby and I am sure by the weekend everyone else will be out also. I think everone needs a fix.
Thanks and keep up the good work.

the snow has just started here as of 7AM, I will update and also you can watch the webcam on the homepage or the full weatherpage http://www.robertlyonsphotography.com/webcam/index.php

From the way the radar is looking, you could be riding before the day is done. How frozen is the ground? Still open mudholes? Good luck. We'll all be watching

yesterday when we left camp up in wheelock we had a couple inches of ice on the ground and about four inches of snow on top. This should make a good base for the snow today.

Fletcher/Fairfax area (36 and 104 trails) we got about 3 inches yesterday. Since 6:00Am today we have gotten about 3 inches and it's still coming down. NWS calls for 6-12 inches before it's all done.

We opened some of the gates last night, and we are going to finish opening them today. If we get enough, we'll be out grooming by about 6:00 Pm..... FINALLY!!!!!!!

See on the trails.

Bill

Picked up a solid 3 inches here in IP and it's still snowing like crazy.
