This storm was a bit of an over performer, bringing close over 20 inches of snow to parts of Vermont, with upslope flow and additional moisture set to provide additional snow showers to the northern mountains for the rest of the day.
Take a look at snowfall totals from the storm:
Thank you for all of your reports! We were able to come up with a storm total snow map through 2 PM this afternoon. Additional accumulations will be possible across northern Vermont this afternoon. Visit https://t.co/bWrAqA6WUF for more info. #nywx #vtwx pic.twitter.com/2tZ1FVLdGx

As you can see in the map (and as was well-forecasted), the snow was very elevation-dependent, with areas in the valleys seeing close to no snow while mountainous regions saw close to two feet.
The snow provided a much-needed boost for ski areas, and here are what some are reporting for the past 24 hours:
Stratton - 18"
Sugarbush - 15"
Bolton Valley - 10"
On the back end of this storm cold air will filter in, preserving the snow pack that has now built up in northern New England. This GIF shows surface temperatures from the GFS from Monday through Thursday night. It will be chilly!

It's tough for me to write about all the snow that the East has received, especially after coming out to Colorado, where I'll be for the next few weeks doing remote school. The mountains here are absolutely gorgeous, and it's fun to be able to do lots of skiing, but I'm ready for a true western cold-smoke powder day. Here is a photo from my skin up Beaver Creek this morning:
