Thanks, I appreciate all of your trail reports as well.

Possible Blizzard for Sunday Dec 21, 2008 After most of us deal with todays fun storm of anywhere from 1-12 inches depending on where you live, we have a much more potent storm for Sunday. This is especially true for the White Mountains, like Franconia..:) After most of us just try and cleanup...

This one is just the beggining, we are in a very active pattern, with a storm every 2 days or so. On Friday there another possible storm, then Sunday is a coastal storm, which if stayed the way it currently is showing, would be 6-12, if not more. Then ironically there is a storm on Wednesday and...

Incredible ice storm..wait till the wind picks up this afternoon, some snow falls, and temps plunge. -Mattl

Turned into a very bad ice storm, looks like an ince world in Lebanon, NH. Most of the Whites only ended up with 4-8 inches before it changed to sleet and freezing rain. -Mattl

The forecast for the White Mountains is 8-14 inches, and it if stays snow for the entire storm will be more like 2 feet. There is the major problem of sleet and freezing rain to deal with. Going to be a nasty ice storm in central and southern NH. This storm has a lot of moisture with it, so...

Thursday wont be a bad day, it will be in the teens in the Whites and upper 20's in the valleys outside them and partly to mostly cloudy. It's Thursday night into Friday afternoon you have to be concerned. From Concord north and west, it should be frozen, what that is, is still in question...

Erasing snow in the White Mountains will be highly variable, more snow will be lost potentially at high elevations then low, 3000-5000 feet because there is warmer air aloft. However, these areas have quite a bit on the ground, 1-3 feet, so it shouldn't be wiped out. Like Drew said, many valleys...

What a crazy weather week, temps 24-36 hours ago below 0 and now in the 50's with rain. For those of you in VT, NH, and ME, that is really going to change. These areas are already under winter weather advisories and watches for a double event. There is a major front across NY and down to the...

Brutus! There is a certain story... This story has been carried over for 10 years from person to person, telling the great tale of a bear named BRUTUS. There are some on here that know of him, some who should know of him, and some of probably shouldn't (since it is a slightly scary tale)...

Certainly is a bear, look at the middle pad area and claws. As was already mentioned, bears may stay out to fatten up further if they did not find enough before the snow came. Seeing how those tracks were above 3000 feet, at this time of year, makes me think he is looking to den up right now...

Ethan and Shoal are actually watched pretty well by the fish and game. I have fly fished both ponds and did well. There was an incident at Ethan where several people were catching trout and keeping them, little did they know a fish and game officer was waiting there for them in the bushes. They...

The rain that fell yesterday fell on either snow covered, or frozen ground so it sat on top or ran off. That rain is now frozen and is making for nasty ice conditions all over northern New England. In the Whites, heavy snow, 8-20 inches fell, with freezing rain, sleet, then rain ontop of it...

I suspect Cannon did not really report today, since Lonesome reported decent snow this morning, and the fact that they aren't open yet. I know Cannon got more then a trace..I would say at least 12 inches at the top. -Mattl

It was a nasty storm that caught many people off guard. They underforecast the snow for the mountains for what was supposed to be 2-4 inches for areas like Jackson NH, recieved over a foot. The jackpot outside the Whites will be the Randolf area I think, or in that area with about 12-16 inches...

I agree weatherman, this closed low is atypical of this time of year. Normally when you get strong cold fronts, lows shoot through, often following fronts. This one is coming up, and then stalling and cutting off, like spring rain storm. I think it will be cloudy the entire week next week with...

The low is going to ride up the coast and cut off over New England and pivot around for a week. This is going to be a very borderline event, but could stay all snow for the mountains which if it did, would mean more then a foot of snow. For the valleys, too early to say, we will have to see what...

The Whites don't have strange abandoned towns from the 1940's that look like they are fallout from a a nuclear blast like Tahawus. What a weird place...Way in the mountains, just sitting there being grown in. Gives me the creeps looking at pictures. -Mattl

I was referring to the aquatic life being absent, which is sad. The Dacks do get lake effect, but not nearly as much of west of them, and being so much further west, can get missed by many Noreasters that come up the coast. I look at snow depths from NOAA all the time during winter, and they...

Heres one for that, many many more moose in the Whites. The Dacks have been struggling to get moose numbers up in the park, and where the moose are not present, the deer make up for. I think the elevational change in tree and animal type is different as well. I think hardwoods dominate higher in...
