"Snow levels generally hover in the 500-1,200 feet range early in northern New England (lowest in Maine and Quebec, often near the valley floors), so base areas can start on the denser side with SLRs commonly around 8-12:1. The best "feel" arrives Sunday night into Monday as colder air filters in, snow levels crash toward the lowest elevations, and SLRs jump into the 13-17:1 range for much of the higher terrain."
"The early-week wave is mainly a quick refresher where it shows up, while midweek starts with a brief milder wobble in spots (snow levels can spike near 1,900 feet and SLRs dip into the 6-10:1 range for a time), then snaps colder and drier-feeling with snow levels dropping back toward the lowest elevations and SLRs rebounding into the mid-to-upper teens."
A weekend storm brings widespread new snow Saturday night through Monday from northern New England into Quebec and the Upper Peninsula. Snow begins denser at lower elevations with snow-liquid ratios (SLRs) commonly around 8-12:1 early on. Colder air filters in Sunday night into Monday, lowering snow levels and boosting SLRs into the 13-17:1 range across higher terrain. Ridgelines will be windy, with gusts often 50-70+ mph on exposed summits, producing a sharper on-mountain experience. Monday night into Tuesday offers a lighter northern add-on. Midweek brings a colder, incremental pattern and better-quality snow, especially across northern Vermont, northern New Hampshire, and western Maine.
