Wednesday Morning Update.. Heavy snow reports are coming in fast and furious from the high country of New England. Ski Areas in Vermont have 12″-16″ of Powder. Most other reports are a wet 6″-12″. Thank you all for keeping us up to date. We will keep posting storm totals and damage on the bottom of this discussion. You can also get National Weather Service Public Information Statements for much of Southern New England here. Western CT/MA/NY/VT here. NH & ME here.
David G. McClure of Holden MA “882 ft above sea level, 10″ accumulation…just turned to rain here…” woke up to this scene. We see a Chickadee in search of breakfast.
The situation is serious though, and will likely get worse.. David Roberts in Sunderland sends this message
“Hi Tim, I think we got about 6″ of heavy wet snow. Sunderland is state of emergency now from fallen trees and downed powerlines. We could hear the breaking limbs and distant trees falling in the darkness early this morning.”
Thanks David.. and this is only day 2 of a 4 day storm.
Now we return to Tuesday Post…
Storm #1 has dropped a dense foot of snow in the hills of Western Massachusetts and much of Vermont today, Tuesday February 23, 2010. Elevations below 300′ have seen very little snow. It was actually colder and more snowy in Houston Texas today, than in Manchester New Hampshire. That Texas storm is racing to the Gulf of Mexico, then up the East Coast as storm #2 for New England. Storm # 2 is moving so fast we will likely see little let up between the two. This map shows the surface features for New England by Thursday Evening. Coastal flooding becomes an issue as we close in on a Full Snow Moon this weekend. Heavy snow will cause power outages, heavy rain will cause flooding, especially in Maine.
In Maine we are fortunate that much of the ice has melted on the rivers. But Ice Jam flooding may become an issues late Thursday into Friday. As cold air arrives form the southwest (again), we may have a snowstorm in Connecticut, and rain storm in Maine, Thursday into Friday.
And just for fun, we may want to follow the snow in California tonight, that system gets to the east coast Sunday. There are signs of being clipped by that one Later Sunday into Monday. That storm will have much colder air available for coastal snow in New England to start the month of March.

Here are Weds/Thurs February 24/25, 2010 storm reports.
