An arctic cold front and strong mid-level disturbance moved across northern Vermont on the afternoon of the 7th. Rain showers quickly changed to snow showers and snow squalls during the afternoon and remained persistent through the early morning hours of the 8th across northern Vermont, especially the western slopes of the Green Mountains.
Snowfall accumulations across the region were generally 2 to 4 inches in the northern valleys, with 3 to 6 inches along the western slopes of the Green Mountains and hilly terrain in north-central and northeast Vermont.
Some specific snowfall totals included: 2 inches in St. Johnsbury (Caledonia), Milton (Chittenden), Morrisville (Lamoille), Topsham (Orange), Rutland and Danby (Rutland), Waterbury, Montpelier and Plainfield (Washington) and Woodstock (Windsor)...3 inches in Worcester and Waitsfield (Washington), East Albany and Newport (Orleans), St. Albans (Franklin), Essex Junction (Chittenden) and Cornwall (Addison)...4 inches in South Lincoln (Addison), South Burlington (Chittenden), Enosburg Falls (Franklin) with 5 inches in Waterford (Caledonia), Westford (Chittenden), Island Pond (Essex), Jeffersonville (Lamoille)...6 inches in Stannard (Caledonia), Underhill, Jericho (Chittenden), Greensboro (Orleans) and 9 inches at Jay Peak Ski resort (Orleans).
The sharply falling temperatures and accumulating snow led to numerous vehicle accidents throughout the state from the afternoon of the 7th through the morning commute on the 8th.
