  1. and you need to be careful. There will be a lot of car accidents. There will be a lot of distracted people a lot of stolen items and pickpockets. If you’re in a crowded area today between three and four, keep your head out of your ass and keep your wits about you
  2. https://whiteface.com/mountain/conditions/ Whiteface has 68 trails and an eclipse party. Even the Slides are open! Just saying
  3. How often does that happen though? JFK is in a south operation almost all summer
  4. Guess you dont sit on everyday with one lane closed from 9-3
  5. Stop. Some of them should fall down and do the world a favor. I nominate the Whitestone as a sacrifice to the gods
  6. Wow!! Felt that in Hastings!!
  7. It is going to turn like a light switch. Enjoy the BN while it lasts (even if its shitty out)
  8. They dont care. You showed up and spent money while waiting in the cold rain. It happens all the time throughout the league
  9. Ill invert that. many of the smaller East Coast ski areas have 100% snowmaking to see them through warm periods. Out west they are totally dependent on natural snow. Too big and not enough water for snowmaking. In the warm winter world of the future, you will see skiing at small resorts on the East Coast where lower Western resorts shut down. Put in the books…
  10. If you are younger than 40, you will watch baseball die off like horseracing did 50 years ago. In both cases, the milking of fans and disinterest of younger generations will play a role.
  11. my house doesn’t flood, but I have to tell you I’m getting a trickles in now every time we have one of these big storms. This is too much already. We’re having this like every two weeks. i’m on the side of the hill at about 200 feet. I’m glad I’m not at the bottom.
  12. you need a good winter leading into that though. And they haven’t had it. It’s tough to have a good late March and April when late February and early March was a stinker up there. Running like +10 and amongst warmest winter ever for them. At best you can say these ski resorts in the Catskills in the Adirondacks are getting lucky toward the latter half of March and it should hold a “normal” season for them despite extreme warmth and well BN snow (especially true in the North Country) like the Adirondacks are all snow today. But Bellleayre has the upper mountain closed because they have ice at the top and rain at the bottom
  13. I didn’t believe they would make it at the beginning of March… But Belleayre made it and they are thriving on 3/22 with snow on way tonight. March is funny like that!
  14. 27F. Stopped that growing season in its place for a bit!
  15. 2005 had some accumulation right?
  16. New York City second week of March. Beyond that it’s spring snow when you’re lucky. wet slop Until then you can have a wintery feel this year we didn’t even have a winter feel side for a week or two in the middle of February and January. I don’t know what these people are talking about winter in March. Ridiculous.
  17. Isnt that wonderful…This fucking winter
  18. I called that. Endless 5-10 warmth this season continues.
  19. People were using March snow and cold as a workaround for the loss of December in the 2010s. Like the season shifted vs what actually happened…the season shrunk
  20. That was epic. Wading River looked like Alaska. Then came Dec 2015 and the rest is history
  21. Spectacular conditions at Belleayre today if you could get past the brutal winds
  22. but it never felt like a classic El Niño The autumn leading up to it wasn’t that warm. Even December wasn’t that warm until we got to that last week and a half. I mean, I say that with a grain of salt because everything is warm now. Then, when we got to January, any of the El Niño bag of tricks, kind of sputtered out. You could see where the big storms were supposed to be. The pattern was there, but in each of the cases, the cold air just wasn’t in place or available, and it ended up being a 2-3 inch type of thing.
  23. Very predictable. Not even a chance
