Southern Vermont, get ready to swim in some powder.

The second big snowstorm in a week is about to hit the entire state of Vermont, and southern Vermont will be hit particularly hard. If you haven’t called in sick already…ahem…

Up in the northern region, NWS for Morrisville-Stowe predicts between 8and 14 inches—almost as good—but Scott Braaten, Stowe resident and weather guru, isn’t sure the north will see as much of the white and fluffy. The most recent models of the storm show a track has moved about 50 miles east, which leaves most of the heavy stuff to fall on Southern Vermont.
