  1. I’ll need an explanation of that It is bizarre, temperature steady and heavy snow but there’s a bunch of 4-5000 footers in the direction the wind is coming from
  2. Definitely no sign of downsloping yet in spite of the wind. I don’t understand why sometimes we do sometimes we don’t with the same wind direction
  3. It’s like full on blizzard out there. Wasn’t expecting that
  4. lol. And some of us DO live there
  5. Pounding like I haven’t seen in a while here too
  6. Only 5” or so on the ground, and who knows if that will be there by morning… hopefully that will change soon though!
  7. Only light snow here but it’s absolutely miserable with 24F, gusty wind, and snow blowing everywhere
  8. Cutters are hard for us, other than the fact that we still usually end up with decent cover from the follow up upslope. We’ve had some really “good” cutter for pack building but they seem to be a thing of the past. That said, GYX sounds optimistic.
  9. True - and admittedly I think of Bartlett, where I used to be, as North Conway. North Conway proper suffers from low elevation
  10. I'd say if there's one place that does well in cutter it's Conway. They CAD like nobody's business. I don't know much about Jay other than the few times I've been there and witnessed what they called 8" of snow that were really a dusting that my wipers could remove in about 2 strokes
  11. Awesome day today. I have low expectations for Wednesday at my location with SE wind, but we’ll see. We’ve had “good cutters” before that helped build a strong base, just not recently
  12. About 3” of upslope overnight, moderate fluff still falling
  13. It could go either way. Some cutters have been great to get glades and steep terrain open - the heavy wet snow makes for a great base, and up here it’s usually followed by upslope to create a nice layered “heavy bottom fluffy top”. Of course if the rain is heavy or very warm and all the snow gets washed off, it’s no bueno
  14. Actually great conditions on the groomers today
  15. I remember the first several years I lived here we’d often do really well in cutters, with a good dose of snow to start followed by some drizzle and 38-40 degrees followed by a few inches of upslope to top it off. It made for a great base for getting glades open. Lately it seems like cutters just suck lol. Would be great to change that
  16. My heart is growing frail, don’t do this to me. JK I’m starting to care less every year that I’m up here. But snow is nice, and especially nice for my business lol. And flooding is bad, very bad.
  17. Do they? I thought we were looking at 40s and 2” of rain
  18. Looks to be making its way here, decently moderate snow atm
  19. Tiny flakes but snowing decently
  20. I don’t know I’ve ever seen the Euro run being so disconnected from the ensembles before for the event on the 10th
  21. We got 3”… doesn’t seem that far fetched that Loon could have gotten 4
