  1. Also a pretty big trend south with less QPF from 00z to 06z to 12z. Not great.
  2. When I was in Mountain Village last year someone told me that the entire gondola is funded by a 1 or 1.5% tax on all property transactions in town. During covid when the market exploded they now are running a surplus of millions and millions of dollars. They even have their own car service in Mountain Village... just call a number and they'll pick you up and bring you to a lift of gondola free of charge. As much money they have around Stowe it's absolutely next level in Telluride and it's all very compact which works well for a gondola as mass transit. On another note I was in Medellin, Colombia this summer on vacation and they have an incredibly cool mass transit system that includes an awesome subway system that links up to a fairly complex gondola system to take you from the subway to the neighborhoods on hilltops. I actually spent an entire afternoon bar hopping via gondola and subway connection because I'm a dork.
  3. The gondola is run by the town of Mountain Village and not the resort. Basically mass transit for people who buy 10M dollar homes haha
  4. Yeah it's pretty incredible. They don't get nearly as much snow as other places in CO but the town and resort are spectacular. Basically no lift lines the entire weekend and you're able to take the gondola until 2 a.m. from/to Mountain Village after a night out. I did some of the chutes off Gold Hill which were a bit more than I bargained for haha
  5. Just got back from Telluride. What an amazing town/resort.
  6. FOr whatever reason rates are pretty lame right now even with decent echoes overhead.
  7. Yeah it's too bad that it's become more unreliable over the last couple years. I don't really see it better than the GFS anymore.
  8. I think the threshold is 6" in 12 hours so we're pretty close to that.
  9. We have 4-8" statewide and verbalizing highest amounts most likely in the hills WOR.
  10. Yeah one station in CT now does this for every storm. It's bizarre. Just make a forecast and run with it.
  11. What does the "+" mean? I don't really get the open ended bounds or the feathering between contours. But that's just me lol
