Champlain Valley Weather Discussion:

OVERVIEW
         Stengthening Low Pressure near Cape Code will continue to strengthen and move northeast today, bringing heavy snow to much of the region.

SNOW
         Everything remains on track, just had to increase snow totals across Southern Vermont based on spotter reports and radar trends. Over 2 feet of snow is possible across the upslope regions of the Southern Green mountains, and across much of Windham county. It appears winds will pick up blowing this snow around causing some areas of significant drifting. But winds should remain below Blizzard Criteria.

         Snow will continue to spread all the way to the canadian border by later this morning. Snow will be going heavy across southern Vermont where snowfall rates as high as 4 inches per hour are possible. Across portions of Northern and central Vermont some heavy snowfall rates of 1-2 inches per hour are possible, and across parts of New York snowfall rates of a half to 1 inch per hour are possible for a brief time. There is a slight chance of Thundersnow across far Southern Vermont as intense mesoscale bands set up. Stay tuned for further updates.
