  1. Speaking of the government and weather-- where's MGorse?
  2. Yes, we managed to make snow two nights this week. Re-opening should happen Saturday morning.
  3. I tend to think of snow amounts and how it impacts skiing conditions. A 4-8" would be a big help in getting my hill opened. 1-2" is barely noticeable. 4-7" inches helps freshen things up. 8-12 is true powder conditions. !2"+ and it starts getting hard to go fast down most beginner slopes. 24"+ is when you can start going over cliff and expect a soft landing
  4. Winter!?... WHERE!? ... I thought it was Wednesday.
  5. I think the Euro is over compensating for something.....
  6. Maybe we ought to start a thread for weather observations for the eagles post season game s
  7. Could this end up as an ice storm? Seems to far south for that.
  8. Classic GFS keeps this thing warm, laid back, and SE..... Classic GFS...
  9. Yeah, it looks like it doesn't really cusp out until it gets into ME/ NB. Shows a nice hit for the green mountains.
  10. talk about a weenie map. 4' is just the maximum colorbar too, so this might be conservative! How does this model verify ?... I wonder what it looked like a month ago
  11. DT reposted an article about the triple spliting of the polar vortex (deja vu winter 2010). I know one thing for sure the only thing better than the polar vortex is three polar vortexes...
  12. indeed, my guess is that moist air is more heat conductive than dry air. In other words it has more propensity to ether!
  13. Talk about the decline of public radio on the air!! Its kind of sad, it was a good way of knowing how impactful and widespread a winter storm was. I think I was pretty much the last hurrah for this tradition. My high school implemented robo-calls my freshmen year.
  14. A stupid dance... in public.... As a skier you go to all sorts of lengths.
  15. Up to 0.54" since 4:30 ish here. Anxious to see how my station does with this wind event tomorrow.
  16. Yeah its a lot of work often in poor conditions... thats why we have to pay people to do that job at the resort. 2 gpm of water is probably about 2/3 of a cubic yard of snow per hour. If you think about how much a yd^3 of mulch covers, its a little underwhelming.
  17. yes I'm an instructor at bear creek. Sadly I don't have a snow making machine. I've thought about building one, but the problem is getting air compressor up to the job. A good snowmaking machine uses 100's of cfm of compressed air. they are $$$.
  18. Hey Chesco, how are we are we doing on breaking 80" for the year of rainfall? Any record tidbits on White New years?
  19. Up to a 0.1" since records began at 4:27 pm today on the Davis Vantage Vue!
  20. I'll settle for cool and dry at this point! Anything to build some man made snow pack !
