  1. It took a half a run to get my mind and legs in sync. My son is now hooked so I have a ski buddy. He is picking it up fast.
  2. Covid lock downs definitely broke the will of many. It seems like events are cancelled much easier now. We got up to 25 degrees today after a low of -1. I am all set with snow and cold for the year. I did get back into skiing after a 8 year hiatus. Legs feel like rubber today but it was fun. Got to do something to at least make you pretend you like snow and cold.
  3. We got another 1/2" dusting tonight about 30 minutes ago. Brought the dog out and surprise surprise, it was snowing. 12 F
  4. Just does not want to stop. We had 2 inches during daylight. We just doubled in an hour with the fattest flakes of the storm. Taking my son skiing tomorrow. First time for me in a few years. He is just learning. Fingers crossed. edit: Total for the storm pushing 16 with compression. The snow shut off last night.
  5. It started over an hour ago while I was out running around for last pre storm/patriot game items. Definitely early, about 2 hours when compared to NOAA guidance. Not sure what it means, but probably a good sign for 20 plus. I was thinking 16 to 18 here. 5.5 degrees will help as well.
  6. Killington shut down the bear mountain and skypeak side of the resort.
  7. I prefer to keep this type of nonsense in the north for winter recreation, but I will take one on the chin this time for all the winter freaks. Just went out to fill the empty gas can for the snow blower. Its madness. Had to go to three stations to find an acceptable wait. One had not gas. Not sure if it was a technical issue or they were out. All gas handles were covered.
  8. We got a good 1/4" dust up. Winds are going and 13 f heading to something below zero.
  9. GYX says steady as she goes. Same map as this afternoons.
  10. The sheer volume of this storm is incredible. I have never seen such a large scale even gradient of snow.
  11. Shoveled a path to the truck. 4 to 5 would be right just as they drew it up. Was surprised to see it still snowing. 27 degrees.
  12. Unreal that the patriots are back in it. I am 55 and have witnessed 20 years of suck and 20 years of greatness... So glad we don't have another 20 years of suck.
  13. Have a great time. Last game i went to was the Denver playoff game when Tim Tebow came to town That was a laugher. The couch is just too easy.
  14. That was a strange blip to a warm winter. Coldest it has ever been in the 17 years living in Amherst. -24 if I remember correctly. Edit: I was wrong -13.
  15. Well at least your car does not have another dose of salt to suck the life out of it.
  16. I think they were waiting for it to be over. I would expect the plow trucks will be out while you are watching the football games.
  17. 3.5. Nice to see it. All the bad stuff is covered. High of 31 now falling. It was great day looking at the fat fluffy flakes this afternoon. Knees intact and cracking one open for the football game.
