  1. Haha, I appreciate you staying on brand. There could be 500 million acres of lava in the Arctic and the answer would be “let’s see if it’s still burning in a week, we just don’t know what’ll happen.”
  2. Keystone open today at 3pm in order to beat A-Basin for earliest opening, ha. I love the race to open out there.
  3. Maybe it has. Maybe it hasn’t. We just don’t know.
  4. You know I left safety to go out in the hail/graupel.
  5. Just had small hail and thunder come through.
  6. Not every day a passenger jet smokes a weather balloon… https://onemileatatime.com/news/united-boeing-737-hit-weather-balloon-cracking-windshield-bruising-pilot/?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR5AqWqARKi7Vtyd8XP1QnL6YIpIPy3yxK1sQL2Bkk4Q9Dm78GXKB2kgWqDzGw_aem_nQyt_Obm5uU4t4q4YpI1cg
  7. At 1.15" here. The western slope communities east of BTV in Chittenden County have gotten crushed. They got trained by several narrow bands of heavy rainfall and now the ULL and upslope flow is cranking. There are spots over 3" and pounding rain east of BTV. They could do 4"+ in this event.
  8. Some water coming to the drought zone. Likely overdone but a soaking rainfall en-route.
  9. Wind is blustery this evening. Sustained 15-20mph but gusts 30-40mph. Warm wind too... 64F off a high of 72F.
  10. Min of 26F Clouds have rolled in and it’s up to 38F. Broke down and turned on some heat for the first time.
  11. ORH warmest place in the interior northeast, by a decent margin. Only a few coastal spots like BOS can compete.
  12. We bust balls about the long growing season and fake cold… in the end none of it really matters until the snow flies. ULL around that early Nov period on the models occasionally, maybe you can thread the needle for birthday flakes.
  13. Awesome, ha. Yeah App Gap on RT 17 gets up near 2,400ft passing MRG… no shortage of switchbacks. I bet there was rime ice from the high elevation clouds all up and down the Spine.
  14. Cold day. High was 32F up above 3,500ft. First true day requiring hat and gloves on the hill. Frosted tips from rime up high.
  15. One year ago today we had a healthy dump above 1,500ft. Tied for earliest 12” depth at the summit stake at 3,800ft. 10” at 3,000ft.
  16. Chilly fall day... sunny. Temp up top of Gondola is up to 34F off a low of 30F. Down here in the base area it's 46F at 1,500ft.
  17. Ha, the jackpot mentality yes. The old "I got 6-10 inches and couldn't be more angry about it because someone else got two feet"...
