  1. Yeah it'll be a blast. Seems like Aspen is in a bit better shape than some of the other resorts in CO. Hoping for a surprise with one of the systems moving off the Pacific this week.
  2. Killington was surprisingly good Thursday/Friday. Some ice and definitely fast but they recovered nicely from Monday's ice. Lift lines were fine too. Heading to Aspen in a week... ugh. What a disaster out in the Rockies this year.
  3. I can't speak for other markets but at least in Hartford-New Haven I think the average TV forecast is typically more conservative than the NWS and also more frequently correct.
  4. That's true.. however their snow forecasts are almost always far more bullish than the people doing it for "ratings, page views, clicks, or advertising revenue." Not sure how to square that circle.
  5. This system looks like crap at 500mb but we still manage nice lift thanks to warm advection along that baroclinic zone. Probably turns out being a more narrow band of good stuff than what's currently modeled.
  6. If it's not in the model blend it's probably not making it into the forecast.
  7. Meh on the GFS. What a surprise. Just posted this video on the pattern for Christmas week. https://youtu.be/zPngHf9xvyY
  8. The models yesterday didn't really have this thin layer of moisture at 850.
  9. That video was wild. I'm hopeful after Friday's torch we can start building up again Christmas Week. I'm heading to Killington for New Years so fingers crossed!
  10. Thank you! Yeah I normally do them at work in a studio but just fired up the laptop today in the dining room lol
  11. Midday video update if anyone's interested lol https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F45qrarkeBY
  12. I'd say 2-4" up to HFD and 1-2 north. I-95 corridor may be a bit close to 32F for really good ratios.
  13. The GFS has only 0.15" of liquid in Hartford but this is a damn good snow growth setup.
  14. It sucks because to get any traction at all on the platform you have to be ridiculously over the top. I'm hoping to build an audience/following there with reasonable forecasts but who knows.
  15. Updated video on Sunday's storm and a look ahead in the extended. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5lE-tz3FZDU
  16. Glad you're back. I'll probably keep the 1-2" forecast we have but wouldn't be surprised if this trends a bit better.
  17. Also - get 0.25" of liquid with this kind of sounding for New Haven and you can squeeze out 4" of snow or something.
  18. I know the GFS/NAM suck right now for Sunday... but the Euro, Euro AI, UK, Canadian, GFS AI have a decent little event still. I wouldn't throw in the towel.
