  1. I'd be soooo happy for a few days of this.
  2. I think the PGA/LIV split has something to do with it and the general apathy towards women's sports explains the LPGA.
  3. I don't know if you pay much attention to the LPGA but have you seen what Nelly Korda has been doing? 5 wins in a row including the season's first major yesterday.
  4. 28.5° for the low and a skiff of snow on the car tops.
  5. Mixing the conversation from the ski thread, 289” would be a new seasonal record at Whiteface.
  6. This is from the Whiteface Wikipedia entry: “The average snowfall at Whiteface Mountain is 190 inches per year, and the mountain trails are serviced by additional snowmaking. During the 2016-2017 season Whiteface boasted a record-setting 281 inches of natural snowfall.” Comparatively, that isn’t a lot of snow.
  7. That makes sense. Driving by, it looked, to my untrained eye, pretty gnarly. It isn’t easy to get to though. I’d image being owned by the state also means it’s doesn’t always have the most up to date equipment or technology either.
  8. You may not have seen it but this was yesterday in Lake Placid. Not quite NNE but similar interesting weather.
  9. I think we know what happens, certain posters start saying it’s not just warmer than normal but so warm that air conditioners need to be installed and beach umbrellas need to be dusted off. The fact of the matter is that the warmth is undeniable but +5 isn’t all that great in April. 53° instead of 48°, especially when it’s still accompanied by clouds and showers still isn’t all that great.
  10. That didn’t last long. A snow squall just blew through.
  11. The clearing is heading east. Sunny and pleasant here in Lake Placid.
  12. I’m in Lake Placid and I came into town past Whiteface. I know it’s the Olympic Mountain so I assume the terrain has to be decently challenging. I don’t much else about it though. Why isn’t it a “bigger” deal? Is it location or are there other reasons that bring it down a bit? Or am I just crazy and it is a big deal for skiers?
  13. I remember Easter that year as being hot up here, like 90°. I was 8 years old.
  14. Random question for you ski people. This is a State of Vermont Microsoft Teams background. I can't figure out which ski area it is. Sugarbush maybe?
  15. 26.7° for the low. A bit chillier than I expected.
  16. I’d just like to see my high temp start with at least a 6 at some point.
  17. I’m disappointed that Scheffler ran away with it. He played great but I was hoping someone would have stepped up and at least make it close.
  18. I noticed how high the rivers flowing into lake Champlain were yesterday in the way up to Montreal. The lake looked high too.
  19. Feels like it’s about to snow here in Montreal. I’m not this big of a fan!
