Great pic Jeff.  Getting away and doing something you love in the snow, does wonders for the soul.  Puts things into a much better perspective than just getting angry at what we may or may not be missing out on at home. 
 

Below was from Sunday morning at 10 am…leaving for Canada that morning…trails were absolutely Superb. 

I went sledding in Kokanee (sp?) by Banff like 25 years ago - or more. Was amazing, went thru slide zones and way above tree line. My buddy Steve hit a submerged stump and nearly tore the right sled off the machine. Had to put two hands on the left handle to make it go straight so the return trip thru some serious no fall zones was harrowing.  Went near Tahoe 2 years ago as well - what an amazingly fun activity to take a day away from the slopes. I could see myself getting more into it as I retire in several years.

Hemming and hawing over booking March 4 to 8th at Stowe - could be epic. They certainly won't be losing any snow.

I think KC may be the better prospect, saw him a lot in Worcester and he reminds me of Mookie.

Yes - I was just reading yesterday that Campbell may be better. R. Anthony is seeming a 3.5 or 4 tool guy where as Campbell COULD be 5.

Well ...the circuitry in mind is not the act of signing FA's ... it's that they'll help manufacture Ws    - that's when it happens.

Bottom line, they were not doing it with whatever the f model that was they were doing the last 3 years.  This signing is different in terms of their scouting behavior -

I'm more interested in if we're turning the corner from asshole org

I think yes - the thing that worries me is how many teams Fenway owns - Red Sos, Penguins, Racing team, and Liverpool (currently at the top of the table)

I care even less man - the last couple years have been so embarrassing. Get some bodies in there that can hit the f'ers and let's see where it goes.

You have to land some over priced free agents and put some W's up there, and that attracts meatier prospects.   I mean they put them selves up against ugly wall with inept and/or penny pinching bullshit and their fans stopped going to games it got so bad.   

Farm system is ranked 1st or 2nd by most in the know. Roman Anthony is going to be a stud, Kristian Campbell not too shabby either.

Wasn't that the massive sleet bomb? 

yes - like 5 inches of immovable cement here in Trumbull. My snowblower rode on top of it and wouldn't bight.

Closing in on two inches in Trumbull 

Light snow in Trumbull 

Maybe this?

Yep I remember you all the way back then. Jspin too. Dendrite obviously. Then of course there were a whole bunch down in the mid-Atlantic too. 

I remember Baroclonicity as a moderator from Eastern

Yup

Down here in the tropics of New England that may actually be pretty good.

One thing regarding schools. Many districts have had zero snow days.  So less pressure to hesitate calling em off. 

Our schools allow one off day for snow and then it's the ole covid business model - HOME LEARNING. Plus is our school calendar is locked in and the last day is virtually cemented in time - minus is the lack of that last minute fun day off we all had as kids.

Snowing big flakes again.

Thinking another 3” tonight at home, another half a foot for the mountain after last night’s 4”.

If we hit on this active pattern, the mountain snowpack is going to get up there.

Thinking about coming up for a few days in the first week of March - Im thinking there is a chance of epicocity!!!  Tree skiing could be treemendous!!!!

I just pulled my snowmobile out of the trailer for the first time in 2 years. Guaranteed to cancel winter.

PUT IT BACK!!!!!!

Ryan Hall on YouTube has live storm chasers and multi cam. I can't paste the link - keep getting "illegal character" note.

Ripping in Trumbull

Feb 13 2024, 7-14" in all of Fairfield county, most North

We had like 3 here - I am at like the lowest possible point in Trumbull so altitude / closeness to LIS probably did me in.

We beat 4 inches in January 2022. I think we also had over 4 inches 2 years ago in 2023. 

Of course in 2021 we had one to two feet in one storm.

See - now that I am on third cup I realized I was wrong. On a different note - if anyone in our area wants to do a get together I frequent Berlinetta Brewing on Main Street in Bridgeport often. Very good Checz style brewing. All analog vibe with great vinyl for sale as well. The brothers actually trade in high end - rare records as well.

I know it will be in the 40s tomorrow, but will drop Sunday. Maybe it takes a bit to stick on roads,  but I wouldn’t worry. I just want to beat 4”. It’s approaching 3 years for that. 

3 years!! I think the last one here in SWCT was 2018!!!! (I could be wrong as I am just on my second coffee!!)

Well, came to Okemo and Bromley this weekend and I have to say was pleasantly surprised. Actually hit some glades - though cover to thin to spend the day in the trees as the roots and stumps were ski grabbing. See snowmobile trails active. That being said there was brown tundra all the way into VT - well into VT in fact so it seems snow cover here is altitude based. Good snow here in Landgrove - probably 8 to 10 inches of powder (granted this time of year should be double or triple that) and real winter feel. Come ski!!! It's good!!!!

Now that Iv'e skied - it's time for golf!!!!
