The perks of a pseudo-stationary snow band with higher snow ratios! I'm not sure which outlet is giving you a forecast of 8" for Thursday, but unless you live in the Whites it's best to totally ignore that trash forecast (very likely the European operational) and stick with my outlook here. As expected, the majority of guidance now favors warm air even further north and brings rain into most of southern NH, we'll be lucky to squeeze out 3-4" south.

I brought my dog out at 4am in a tanktop, PJ pants and flip flops. I woke back up at 645 to shower and go to work without looking outside and there was a major ground cover of snow. And then to see 8"+ tomorrow? YEESH what is this weather? lol

Ahhh the Kuchera ratio lol. That's a good question! My answer is no one model individually, though I do have a preferred model forecast for snow called positive snow depth change, or PSDC.

PSDC accounts for surface temperature, snow growth, precipitation types, compaction, etc. to provide a more realistic representation of how much snow a person will measure. When you compare the 12Z HRRR Kuchera & PSDC data, it should become immediately apparent that there's a notable difference in the Lakes Region where above-freezing air may surge all the way north to. The snow ratios in the White Mountains north of this heavy snow band will be pretty impressive, I can easily see 12-16" above 1,500 feet

My Social Sports runs indoor and outdoor leagues that are pretty well organized and cost, at least when I played, about 10 bucks a game per session of 8-10 games. I played in the Manchester league where the outdoor games were in Bedford and the indoor games were Deerfield. There is also Sportsplex in Bedford that runs indoors leagues yearround, they have good indoor fields and a bar inside the facility for post-game pitchers. Derry Sportszone has a league but I am led to believe if is more competitive.

Yeah the pattern in March is starting to look really interesting for the Northeast U.S., including all of New England. Models are hinting at a retrograding ridge into Greenland and a second persistent ridge in the Eastern Pacific through Alaska. That combination should squeeze much colder air in Canada south and provide the necessary blocking for our more classic, slow-moving Northeast U.S. snow storms.

Yes, it's annoying to be coerced to do something you don't want to do. That's the nature of government though, and the reason why libertarians want a homeland where there is as little coercion as possible. Free Staters are only doing what both liberals and conservatives do: voting for the laws and elected representatives we want to govern us. If our people / ideas are appealing enough to NH voters to win elections, then our representatives have just as much right to govern as liberals and conservatives.

Last winter my area had a month or so when a dusting would fall every couple nights. It kept everything so fresh and pretty, didn’t impact anything at all because it was always overnight and just a dusting— warming your car up is enough to totally clean it and the roads are dry again by daylight.

I wouldn’t mind winter nearly so much if that happened more. Not enough snow that you have to actually do something about it, just enough to cover up the melted brown refrozen sludge.

These days, they’d have grifter consultants like McKinsey study it for 30 years before they broke ground on reconstruction. Then they’d have four managers breathing down the neck of every worker, wondering how they can make him work 10% faster while they jerk each other off all day.
