  1. -16F to 27F today. Feels balmy now. Skiing is epic, only one lift running today but otherwise the ski area is 100% open. It’s nice to see we can still pull off a real winter after the last few. Hoping SNE can cash in too, it’s certainly been a nice season up here and that looks to continue. And I certainly won’t complain if we get an early spring in March/April at this point.
  2. About 3” overnight, stuck to everything. Very pretty
  3. It’s warmed up a bit here too so it’s snowing hard but not accumulating much. Should be good for the ski slopes though. 32.4F
  4. Snowing pretty well here, with a warmish 31F temperature. P&C says 3-5”, which added to last nights 4-5” should make for some nice gains if it verifies. 15” at the stake
  5. Snowing pretty well here, temp 31F. I was in Boston last night and got an inch or two there, I was surprised to come home to another 4-5”. Definitely helped cover up some of the skied up areas from the weekend in the glades. Stake at 15”
  6. It is pretty remarkable. Even in good winters we usually see a snow - snow - rain - snow - snow - rain seesaw that builds up the pack. Having no rain mixed in at all has made the quality of the skiing amazing, even if the depth is not particularly impressive.
  7. It’s been a great month for sure, and not just for the snow, but for the lack of cutters and warmups
  8. We are under an extreme cold warning for tonight. Not sure I’ve ever seen that and not sure I like it lol. currently 13 with light snow
  9. About 4-5” overnight. 14” at the stake.
  10. Better than I expected here, about 2” so far
  11. Aside from the consistent snow cover we’ve had, which I know is a local thing, another thing that’s been different this year is the ice. The Ammonoosuc is completely iced over, I have not seen it so frozen in a while. Could be some serious ice damming issues if we end up with a big cutter.
  12. In the meantime, looks like another pretty good stretch coming up, starting with the current WWA for 3-6”
  13. Just experienced that. My kid had a basketball game in Lisbon, past Littleton along the VT border, and there was barely an inch on the ground there. Even Littleton has very little. Bubble is a good definition; it seems like it’s been such a great January but without upslope it really hasn’t done much. But that’s easy to forget when we’ve had snow probably a good 70% of days in January
  14. Nice dumpage this morning. A couple of inches so far.
  15. Hey! I just read your online review - thank you soooo much, you’re far too kind!!! I’m so glad you had a good time. It’s definitely been a nice January. I don’t particularly care for the cold and have skipped several days of skiing because of it, plus a pesky stomach bug, but while the snow isn’t as deep as it probably should be, the conditions are quite stellar. Upslope is definitely a nice insurance policy, and one of the reasons I chose Bretton Woods is that I have not found a single ski resort in the East that has such consistently good snow. A perfect combination of upslope, terrain, lack of wind, great grooming. And hey, we can drive 20 minutes to Cannon or 40 to Wildcat and be reminded that you’re still on the East Coast! Don’t get me wrong, I love those mountains too, as I love Stowe, but the snow quality does not compare. Felt that earthquake today BTW. That was bizarre.
  16. One of the squalls today was insane lol. Visibility was almost zero for a few minutes
  17. 10" at the stake; not very deep, but the quality of the snow is great from a skiing perspective
  18. Getting some decent squalls
  19. A little light snow/flurries this morning
  20. Down to -4. Hopefully we are done with lows like this morning (-25.2); that was just stupid painful.
  21. -9 and and it’s not even 7pm. This sucks. The Amoonoosuc River is pretty much completely frozen over. Haven’t seen it like that in a while.
