Ski wise I got out to Breck/Vail/BC/Keystone this Jan for 5 days of skiing and 3 days in CT at Mohawk. Not bad given the circumstances. Will do VT (okemo) next year-we had a trip set for March last year which got canceled, their restrictions were too much to get up there this year....
there's really no need to anymore. You have smart phones with weather apps built in, the internet-so much more information available at anytime of the day. Gone are the days you had to wait til a 6:20pm weather forecast on Channel 7. With that said, even the local newscasts as a whole are becoming obsolete. It's basically a readback of information most have read online during the day....
yeah and it's March too so the ground is that much warmer. The heaviest precip moves out before the real cold gets in. Maybe a car topper if we're lucky.
I got called yesterday at 5pm for a late dose (no shows/cancellations). Went in and got PFE with a 2nd appt confirmed. CT goes to 45 and up Friday so happy to get in before the next crush of people
The airmass in front of the storm is warm-it will be near 50. Heaviest precip falls while it's still warm, by the time the cold air drills in, most of the heavy precip is done. Like you said, white rain or a car topper north....
