Champlain Valley Weather Discussion:
         Very impressive storm unfolding with snowfall rates ranging from 1-3 inches per hour across Northern Vermont and New York. So far things are pretty much going as planned but a little more warm air has pushed into the region then expected. With freezing rain pushing as far North as Montpelier and some sleet as far North as Swanton. This will likely be the case until the low passes just to the south east of us, and then precipitation should become all snow once again. So far snow accumulations have ranged from 1-3 inches across Southern Vermont, 2-4 inches across Central Vermont, and 3-5 inches across Northern Vermont and Northern New York. Also there is some very extreme instability and it wouldn't be surprising to see some thundersnow across Northern Vermont and Northern New York overnight.
         Snow totals will generally range from 6-12 inches across Northern New York, and Northern Vermont with 3-8 inches across Central and Southern Vermont with 3-6 across far Southern Vermont. Up to a quarter inch of ice is likely across central and southern Vermont as well. Stay tuned for further updates on this developing winter storm.
