    Since when does the CMC make sense haha? .

    Zoinked CMC. 1 out of 3 globals ain’t bad odds haha.

    2.75” here just SE of Albany with a little crusty layer in the middle. NWS forecast was 7-11”. Ooops. Culprit was the dry air and I imagine that band to the north up near Saratoga where they reported around a foot gave us a little subsidence? .

    Up to 1.5” here just SE of Albany. Been drooling over that band to our north. Looks like it’s gonna stay up that way. .

    12z model trend or HRRR gone wild? .

    I don’t think the cutoff to the north will be that extreme. Northern areas could have greater banding potential with stronger mid level frontogenesis, and along with higher SLR's could help enhance accumulations. .

    I hit 24” for the season with this past one which was my 13th storm of the season. Least than 2” average per storm. I want a big un!! So many penny’s and nickels!! .

    GFS ticked south. I agree, it’s a definite possibility and seems to happen a lot as of late. Compression depression. .

    NAM the new Dr. No. seems to be having trouble lately. ICON precip distribution seems more “normal” haha. RGEM seems to be overdoing orographic effects. .

    NAM still paltry with precip north of coast. Come on Nammy!! .

    A quick 1.5” thump here and now sleeting. 21.7F. Schools all closed here in the Capital District for this big dog storm!! .

    Both the 0Z Euro and GFS show precip issues with several of the lala land storms. Would love all snow but I guess if we want the storms then we need the gradient near by. Hopefully we can stay on the right side for most of them. .

    True. Some schools around here haven’t had a snow day in 2 years. Breaks are good!! .

    12F here and so clear and calm. Beautiful night. Now let’s get that pack building!! Speaking of inversions, my Don sent me this from Boulder this morning. They’ve been having crazy inversions in the morning. .

    Save the Snow Days for the 4ft. incoming weenie kuchie snow. 1-3” here and some rural schools are closing already. .25-.3” of liquid and a snow day haha. Bigger district are all still open. .

    F**k!! My biggest fear. I look up every time to make sure the freaking lift is well attached to said cable although I always considered it an irrational fear… Until now! .

    Spicy LOL, I like that. The old poma cable was exposed on the snow in a couple of places and I discovered that edges do not hold on lift cables haha. It was like teflon. I went down when I hit it but luckily I was moving real slow. And there were some random metal spikes sticking a few inches above the snow. It was a real clusterfudge. Simply getting down uninjured was my goal. I learned my lesson for sure haha. .

    Pico was amazing today. Since they’re closed on Tuesday and Wednesday’s Thursdays are the day to go. About 10” of fresh powder. I got 10 powder runs! Glad I brought my fatties so that I floated over any hard pack underneath. The bumps on summit glade were soft and delicious. The corduroy was so soft. Just stellar conditions. I did make one mistake and skied the old poma line just past Giant Killer. Never again! T hat was terrifying haha. Side slid my way down most of it. .

    -14.6F here in East Schodack, NY this morning. Coldest it’s been in years. Good news is that all of the renovations we did on this 200 year old house really kept in comfortable. Heat pump, insulation, wood stove. 80F in the house right now [emoji41]. .

    That is an amazing pic! I wanna ski those whales before they groom them haha. I was at Windham a few years ago when they opened World Cup and there were huge whales and snowmaking going. The backside of the whales were so steep! .
  22. snowgeek
    Yes! Liberty Origin 96. My favorite ski yet!! .
  23. snowgeek
    Even way down south at Stratton was awesome yesterday. This is Snowbowl lift line with natural snow bumps. .
  24. snowgeek
    Looks like some nice packed powder! Awesome! .
  25. snowgeek
    Skied Killington this afternoon. Variable conditions. Some packed powder, some granular and some ice. Some soft bumps on east fall. K1 gondola up. Ski down to north ridge. 12 runs. Peak walkway to gondola down. Great to be making turns and getting the ski legs going! .
