Below freezing temps, first flakes possible tonight and the return of snow on the GFS clown range. I figured I'd start the thread from the snowiest place in the east with hopes that leads to a great NNE snow season. If it winds up being crap, I'll never start one again and just blame phin.

Sub freezing and chance I see first flakes this weekend while I'm up north...NNE Cold Season Thread time!
-
Best possible result…should continue to be the jay everyone loves, with some new capital for much needed upgrades. .
-
The official countdown begins..always look forward to this post. Game on! .

It’s not a don’t deal yet..they were extremely profitable last season and the bids went up. Pacific group is basically the starting bid and others can come in higher. That said, I think they have a very good chance and would be a great owner. I’ve heard they intend to keep current management and be more or less hands off. .

Absolutely perfect day out there. No humidity, slight breeze and a bright blue sky. Dog was in heaven on our walk. .
-
It’s coming this winter. .
-
Decent amount of rain overnight. Sleeping with the windows open was like one of those sleep apps. Chilly this morning, but clearing out. Love this NNE summer weather. What a change from a NJ July day. .

Deep summer up here this week! .
-
It’s the storm you dream of in early December. It was 8-10 of pure cement followed by the classic overnight dumping of fake snow. We would have still been skiing on that base if it was in December. We picked up another 6 at 1800’ for a storm total of 12-14, which is settling down to about 10 right now, but above 3000’ there has to be close to 18. Can’t get to it right now because of wind tho. With an empty resort in a mediocre winter, it’s a nice last hurrah here.
-
The railing was cleared after the changeover so this is the upslope so far..2-3 maybe. And the heaviest looked like midnight to 6am…bitter sweet last night of spot light watching fake snow for the season for me.
-
Wind may be an issue tmrw…..snow will not. It’s dumping again and the upslope is just getting started. Timbuktu, Haynes, and the stuff you hiked to on tramside off the Bonnie had the best snow.
-
Deep!!
-
3k nam really going crazy with the upslope tonight after midnight up here. Has another foot, though likely over done.
-
Heaviest, wettest snow I’ve skied all year. Gets a little drier up top but there is a ton of water in here. It’s the kind of base building storm you dream of in December, before the fake upslope starts tonight. Id guess 6 or so at 1800’ but more like 10 up at 3500’. I think we pull another 4-6 tonight once this drizzle now changes over.
-
6-8 here and it feels like most of it came in 2 hours. Heavy wet slop probably already packing down. Fake upslope should get us over a foot later.
-
You going to hike it or coming up here?
-
I’ll be back up Tmrw night and I’ll let you know how Tuesday goes. There’s still snow in the upper glades so I bet 4-6 of wet snow followed by the back end upslope will be enough…wind might be issue though. Mets would know better on specific numbers.
-
Going to suck me back in for an early week drive up.
-
Top 3 day this winter at jay. With the tram on windhold for the past 2 days, there was a foot and a half of nearly untouched powder in the woods. Bluebird, no wind, mid 20s, EMPTY…and great snow. Probably the best the glades will be until next January…and for the jay snow measurement doubters, was at killington yesterday and would question their 12” a lot more than jays 15…it’s not even close.
-
So seeing wind at those higher altitudes would indicate it’s unblocked and getting over the peaks?
-
Ok…can you explain this to the lees knowledge (me)…I get the blocked flow and Froude number, but what am I looking at?
-
That’s what matters
-
Its a slow death. It seems timing has been everything this winter. You have to catch the right days because you dont get too many in a row. The upslope potential next week looks to be moderating, but I'm hoping to catch a few of the last decent days mid week before the rain again. Seems like we are on the wrong side of the line every time the last month.
-
It’s surprising how it held up over the weekend and what a couple cold nights/above freezing days have done! Do you have the euro for the weekend/early next week? I’m drooling over that northwest flow behind the storm for what might be one last upslope event…gfs looked promising. CMC not as much.
