Champlain Valley Weather Discussion:
         Yes, thats right. Another winter storm headed for area. Low pressure currently over far eastern Tennessee will continue to move Northeast and redevelop along the coast, and move out to sea. Generally this wouldnt result in significant snow for our area, but due to an inverted trough in place, that will move across the Northeast, moisture will ride back and along that trough producing accumulating snow across the area. Snow totals across the board will be 3-6 inches with locally up to 8 inches along the Western slopes of the Green mountains, and perhaps the far eastern Champlain Valley.

         This snow should not be extremely wet and heavy like the last snow we had, however it wont be as powdery as you may like, and this is going to result in that much more snow on roofs. Already numerous buildings, especially barns and sheds have collapsed across Northern New York, and Vermont. With 5 barns collapsing today in Franklin County Vermont alone. You NEED to clear your roofs of snow immediately or you are risking severe structural damage and injury. Stay tuned to for further updates on this developing winter storm.
