  1. This may or may not be a wishcast but I think late March will have at least one synoptic snowstorm.
  2. That’s not as reassuring for those of us who just moved to the region.
  3. The latest v16 GFS has some nice fool’s gold for the Equinox period.
  4. 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.
  5. Lots of people live in Denver and Boulder. Models show them getting crushed.
  6. Has New England had a March this boring since 2012?
  7. 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.
  8. I could've sworn that ORH_wx's map had Taunton in the 35-40" range, unless I'm recalling incorrectly.
  9. SE Mass averages less than 40” for a reason. Too many coastal fronts, warm intrusions, and precip issues.
  10. 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.
  11. Today’s event in the northern Greens has been very disappointing.
  12. Those are some amazing ratios. Heading for Stowe today!
  13. This was a few hours ago. Northfield, VT https://i.imgur.com/pv8tGWn.mp4
  14. Yup, I’m right near the university. It’s been a fun evening, definitely feels like deep winter has returned. 1.7” new. 16 degrees
  15. 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.
  16. 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.
  17. 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.
  18. I give it a B- or C+ Better than last year, but full of many disappointments. Probably will end up just below average.
  19. 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?
  20. I’m about to head to the slopes at Stowe. Looking forward to it, but this “storm” is basically flurries.
  21. I had a feeling the models would improve as soon as I canceled winter. Let's hope I'm not speaking too soon...
  22. I admire your optimism. I am very skeptical, but I hope you're right!
  23. I'm sure there will be some nickel and diming into March and possibly April, maybe a stray advisory event or two, but I'm not expecting anything significant.
  24. Look at all the forecast teleconnections. All of them will be the complete opposite of what we want. And those brief windows where we might get a ridge in the west, or some other reprieve from the hostile pattern, any chance of any storm working out will be a long shot. How much did it snow in March 2010?
