Just looked at the 12z HRRR. Thing has been $ so far this year. Caught the mix line and timing very well as well as banding areas in the 12-2 storm (although a lot more than was modeled) and did well with the two smaller events. I'll ride it.
South side of Bare and Hancock are where it is at. Amazing stunted trees, fire roads, and thin woods. Bare is super steep, Hancock is more intermediate/advanced. You can get about 500 vertical feet in on both.
It could have been January of 2017 then. We had 20" at the house and skied Berkshire East after they got 22". All fell during the day time I remember that much about it.
WTF!!! Went to bed around 11pm with 5", woke up with over 15" new. Deck has 2' of snow on it. Roads have 12"+ on them. Going to be a lot of shocked folks. Band just rotted over central Mass.
The band from the northern Mass border down to the pike should reach these 2-3" totals in western Mass by 7-8pm. Would love for a delayed UMass opening tomorrow. Shocked they closed today. First snowday during classes in about 4 years.
