I've migrated from Northfield to the hills west of Worcester, VT and NNE of Middlesex. I'm now at 1460', with a direct view of White Rock mountain from the yard.
Currently getting moderate to heavy snow from the upslope. Radar looks great.
I am too, but at this point, after seeing the latest guidance, my expectations are zero.
This will be my chance to experience spring skiing up north for the first time, after last year’s events robbed us of the opportunity.
I do remember hearing some loud boom yesterday evening. I had no idea what it was... I was thinking maybe a gunshot?
But if that’s what it was, then it all makes sense now.
Yeah it was one of the coldest days I’ve ever skied. It wasn’t my first time skiing with temps in the single digits and teens, but the winds made it especially brutal, and I felt it even with my layers and gloves and jacket.
I wouldn’t mind if it’s 15 degrees warmer than what it was today. Hoping next weekend has another snow opportunity.
Some very impressive snow squalls have just passed through. Moderate to heavy snow, strong wind gusts and blowing snow.
Reminds me of 2/14/2015 in the mid-Atlantic.
DC did poorly but the north and west suburbs of both DC and Baltimore did a lot better. One guy in Carroll county (northwest of Baltimore) has over 50” for the season.
How is Friday looking for the ski areas?
I'm seriously considering taking either Thursday or Friday off if there is good upslope. I missed that 8" storm the other day.
What will it actually take to get into a pattern that favors storms and precip? GEFS extended looks bone dry for the whole month, though I have no idea how accurate it is.
I keep hearing about shorter wavelengths in March, or that teleconnections aren’t as important. Is there a particular reason why the guidance shows such an ugly precip hole over much of New England?
