It's snowing in Vermont — and NYT features the Catamount Trail

I just had a lovely, blustery walk for some Vietnamese pho (a delicious noodle soup). It's snowing again in Vermont!

I discovered another great page on the NOAA/National Weather Service site. It gives estimated snowstorm totals:

They also report:

TOTAL SNOWFALL ACCUMULATIONS OF 5 TO 9 INCHES WITH LOCALLY HIGHER
AMOUNTS IS EXPECTED BY TUESDAY MORNING ACROSS CENTRAL AND
NORTHERN VERMONT...INCLUDING THE WESTERN SLOPES OF THE GREEN
MOUNTAINS.

Yay! It appears that there will be some powder skiing to do this week! It will be darn cold and windy, however. So we'll see which day we decide to brave the elements.

I'm eager to get some more turns in the woods. Did you see that Vermont's 300-mile-long Catamount Trail was featured in the New York Times the other day? It's a good story by a Vermont freelance writer. <link http: travel.nytimes.com travel escapes external-link-new-window>You can check it out here.

I like to keep my eye on the weather — especially this time of year. We had that wonderful dump of snow last week. It was then followed by some rain. Looking ahead, we may see rain again on Thursday.…
