  1. 36 here. I was actually reflecting on how we deal with frost through mid June, but won't go below freezing in late December. Perfectly normal, I know, but funny to think about.
  2. Gotta admit, today felt awesome. Skiers looked stoked, even if the conditions are not perfect. Huge crowd. Looking strictly at the GFS, looks like things start looking pretty decent about a week for now - so for the time being, seems like we should enjoy this spring stretch, the real thing is still a ways away!
  3. Eek didn't realized that. Haven't heard much detail about it.
  4. There are a ton ton of amazing hikes here between Mt Washington and Franconia Notch, but please do be careful and really consider your experience level. Another hike died this week - second in a month. Winter hiking is serious business!
  5. Finally some decent snow here too. Been flurries for 3 days lol... now big fat flakes
  6. Took this picture yesterday - some pretty cool ice formation on the wetlands as the flood waters receded
  7. Just started flurrying here. Tried hockey with the kids -lol, we are a disaster. But fun. Skiing wasn't bad either.
  8. Yeah - at least the manmade snowpack. The natural will be so thin by then that its preservation is essentially meaningless
  9. Amazing that we manage to rain with a low going over the Cape lol
  10. I've gotta add, many times I have been surprised by the conditions in a "bad stretch." Good grooming can turn an icy trail into a really fun skiing day. I'm actually looking forward to the warmup - nicely groomed trails with 30s and 40s daytime high can be a treat in January!
  11. Merry Christmas! Just started flurrying as we opened presents. How festive! :p
  12. Definitely a net loss here but at least it's still white. 4" at the stake
  13. Flooded. Just moved everyone’s cars and made my way back through 2 feet of icy water. So fun… amazingly the renters all thought it was the coolest thing lol
  14. I thought once the front came through we were going to plummet? Dropped 10 degrees in minutes but now it’s ever so slightly going up. Weeeeeeeird
  15. Just went to check the river - it’s incredible to see. There is still 5” of snow in most spots but in between there are just 4-5” of slushy water. If that freezes before getting absorbed talk about a bullet proof base lol. Assume the cold front went through since this is my pws:
  16. It’s interesting how localized my flood threat is. The Ammo starts just a few miles from my house (it comes out of Lakes of the Clouds), so what it does is really dependent on just the few miles between my house and the top of Mt Washington. So far so good, but keeping an eye on it. 44F, pack down to 7”. Would be nice to keep a few just for looks lol
  17. Glad we got a new plow truck (Ram 2500). Tried with the F150 yet and 5” of water logged snow was just no match for it. Eeek.
  18. That’s a bit surprising. It’s windy here but doesn’t seem anything exceptional so far
  19. Wind really picked up here, lights flickering. Generator kicked in for a minute but power came back quickly. For now. Temp up to 38 with a mix of rain/snow. Looks like rain flout when you see it on the windows you can sss there is frozen stuff mixed in. Hopefully that will help reduce the flooding risk. My anxiety over flooding is high!
