Reality Check- The first 15 will be average, maybe slightly below with some -10 departures in there. The mets who know more than 90 percent of us have been calling for it to get milder mid month Winter is 12 weeks long and we are still 6 weeks before it even starts The average high for BOS is currently 55 A call for 70s on Thanksgiving day has as much a chance of verifying as the 12Z GFS 384 Op showing 30s for highs three days before T-day. The entire month of November was not a torch as some advertised in mid October nor did any of my kids Halloween candy turn to diarrhea

you guys are still probably ahead of last year with a good window mid week i would think...Jay tried Thursday night before a pipe exploded. Starting from scratch Tuesday night when temps hit.

lots of cold shots in there...is that the +PNA? Seems like the Northeast stays chilly while the rest keep going mild.

It's nice watching warm anomalies get beat back by the cold every time they try to establish on the last few gfs runs. May be fake, but it's certainly the opposite of what we saw all of last winter.

It’s officially ski season! .

But then we'd have to worry about sun angle

They are hammering superstar and probably have another 48 hours before they need to shut the guns off. Though it does look like there will be some warms ups, those guys might finally get a year where they don't need to panic or pray for temps 5 days before in order to make the World Cup. Might even be able to start blowing great northern to skip the hike over to the ridge before the weekend (though TTB is a ways a way)

Something was sitting over mid/southern greens. It was pounding at Killington, but down by Stratton, looks like only an inch or so.

Snowing hard at Killington on the webcams.

whiteface slides?

You're like a morning ray of sunshine.

Below freezing on the north ridge .

Good morning from killington .

As good a look so far this month as you could ask for

The extremes are the problem...how about we work to make snowmaking more eco-friendly....rather than "we should ban all snowmaking because it uses energy." and I'm just using snowmaking because it's a hot topic here close to my heart. We can't "ban" everything that uses energy and live in a cave. We can certainly, and should certainly, make strides to do better. One can want to make things more eco friendly, pollute less, support alternative energy sources, without the "ban everything, I'm smarter than you, every high temperature is CC attitude" I think many become defensive when people take things to the extreme, create drama over the topic and most importantly, speak in condescending tones to those who have a different viewpoint, which happens frequently on both sides of the CC debate.

I can hear the alert “beeps” in my head with that scrolling red screen just reading that. .

I literally lol at bumblefuck Connecticut…real survivalist stuff there. .

Not to get off topic, but snowmaking at killington should start tomorrow night thanks to these temps. .

Yeah, sorry. I took the bait.

I know you're trolling because that's what you do..but relying on natural snow only means about a 6-8 week season and only in far NNE resorts based on climo, which makes skiing anywhere in the east unprofitable and non-existent. So a ridiculous comment.. but nice call on the 80 last week.

Good stuff...i figured you wouldn't miss it.

Snowing at pf land on the Stowe webcams…I’m going to guess he’s out making snow angels so he didn’t have time to post this. https://www.stowe.com/the-mountain/mountain-conditions/mountain-cams.aspx .

Clearly, he was just making that up because nothing showed "solidly above normal" let alone normal to start the month. Averages falling quickly this time of year too, so I kinda like the moderately below normal to start, and as long as we don't torch, deal with slightly above normal to end the month. Nice active pattern too. Your concerns post 11/15 give me pause tho.

Where exactly do you see solidly above normal? Or just making that up? .

Not often you take a 68 straight down to snow making weather. .
