Thru 60 looks south

Understatement of the year.

I've been hearing about the warm up since Thanksgiving. Funny how every year as we approach spring it warms up. Go figure. And there's no need to post "winter is over" every six hours after each model cycle. We get it, we heard you the first 50 times. Move on to the spring thread and post about flowers and bumble bees in there.

Incredible to see California being one of the only states without any drought.

It’s great. Lots of easy terrain and an amazing ski school. Also, much less crowded than other ski areas

I think they mean the temp anomaly. Though I don’t think next weeks warmup would be enough to cancel out the whole 3 month period. February maybe if the cold shot the week after fails.

Don't be surprised if the Icon comes north. It's 6z ensembles did, which is why I mention it, fwiw.

I love the woods, not too steep like some of the other NH resorts. Some great trees too. It’s relatively beginner friendly IMO

There you go again John... Using "logic and analytic content!" That has no place in a wx forum... Be better... Lol

Heh Yeah, severe around here. It is an aspect we can do. Just per climo and common experience, it's not as often observed. We all know this... still good to set up expectations ( that'll be ignored the first hash outta SPC the sets up in early May ...) We do just about everything else there is in the spectrum of weather impacts, much easier. Although, big heat is debatable. As an aside, big heat around here is weighted down by an amalgamated pall-blue sky of continental bio-mist, confluent DP sources, and industrial fart ozones. It's amazing we don't have elevated cancer statistics compared to everywhere else, being that this region is akin to the atmosphere's colorectal exit canal for the continent. But as far as sending temperatures very high... in the many years I've lived through summers in SNE, there's always always ...100% of the time, something holding it down some 1 to 5. When dealing with the big numbers in deterministic weather forecasting, ...maybe this has happened and I just don't recall, but I know it is rare to see high predicted to be 100 (in the first place), and have it end up 105... That happens in Iowa, our same latitude, far more often than here. But we'll put up boat loads of 98s.

We have seen a few instances this winter when said indices were poised to produce and the surface reflection didn’t pan out at our specific location. I suppose when they are unfavorable, some look past the less than ideal canvas for a doped up OP run that shows a bomb. When the backdrop is favorable it doesn’t necessarily mean it will be realized IOBY, however when it is not, the chances are reduced greatly and that is why the more experienced Mets are smashing their faces into the keyboard and ultimately have a better grasp of the reality of whether or not a storm even has the ability to form.

Nothing like that really. This is also probably more WOR. Someone though could probably pickup 1/2-1" or so.

I believe we are headed into a stretch of normal winters like we use to have. Let's see what late Feb and March holds.

I would generally agree. Wake County got screwed this year and that is what we will remember.

WB 12Z 12K NAM is a weak, southern slider.....need to see improvement within 36 hours or we can finally put this threat to bed.

1-3”?

You can pull it, just make sure you’re not on a Zoom call.

I just don’t feel like taking out a loan to do this. Skiing is out of control ridiculous.

Just can’t be pulled yet . Maybe by 18 or 0z

How’s Bretton Woods for learn to ski type stuff? Thinking about it for next week but I’m not sure what I’m gonna do.

Drought severity expanded in NJ and other regions. Not a shock since all we had was a snow shower and some freezing drizzle in the past 2+ weeks. A warm March would be very bad unless preceeded by rainy weather. Snowpack melt helps a bit but won't be enough.

I wouldn't care if we had gotten some snow on top of the glacier, but most of that cold was wasted, other than keeping snow/ice cover otg for an extended period. At least our dry streak continues lol.
