    From Banter thread..,

    Snow levels got down to 2,300ft was where the first accumulations were. 

    Only a half inch or so but nice whitening all the way to 4,000ft.  No real increase with elevation.

    Is that the official ss?

    My recipe for my specialty fall drink: 1 parts pumpkin beer, 1 shot bourbon, 1/2 cup lemonade, 1/2 cup apple cider, top it off with a drizzle of maple syrup and finish the rim with maple syrup dipped in pumpkin spice. Enjoy 

    I love that fall drink too but I skip the pumpkin beer, lemonade, apple cider and maple syrup dipped in pumpkin spice.

  3. Wolf Creek always seems to do well in late fall/early winter.

     

    As for K-Mart making snow. They probably will, but I wonder if they'd do better with dry air as opposed to saturated at 27-30F. Scott would probably be able to answer that.

    But one thing about K-Mart, if given even a small window, they can lay down a ribbon in no time. I think FIS returns tour there in a month!

    The clustering has packed into SC and lower NC, sure. Either way, regardless of LF....where it parks itself is the bigger story for big floods. 

    No doubt! 

    However, if it comes in at Cat 4, wind will be a story as well.

    My local average in the west weak nino years since 1970 is 89 inches, well well above the ~55- ~65 average. Many instances of transient -nao in those years, look at dailies not monthlies

    Any idea how ski country/NNE does?

  6. Looking to pick up some new skis this fall. My current skis are basically GS skis (185's (115-68-99) which are fine for anything less than say 6" of snow, but now that I'm getting in about 40 days/year, and the ability to hit most powder days I'm looking for something wider.

    So do I get something wide like a Blizzard Rustler (142-114-132) just for powder days, or something like a Bonafide / Enforcer as an everyday ski?
