  1. It would be nice for Bear Creek if this worked out like last week. Found myself saying "Brown go around. Gray stay away-- White it's okay" to my students this weekend. Too Many mud patches on the hill to navigate.
  2. Nice night at Bear Creek last night for our weekly instructor clinic. Pretty much 85% snow 15% sleet until the rain started taking over at about 10pm. Skied like 2.5" of fresh snow.
  3. Saw similar temperatures in the East York area-- fascinating mircoclimate there! By my work (eastern edge of amish country) Weeping willows, flowering cherries and alders are begining to leaf-out.
  4. This is one weird, weird winter. Warm snaps, cold snaps, ground hog sees his shadow, tornado snap,...
  5. This is the more impressive/depressive side of this winter. This is a rare cloud type called an Asperitas: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asperitas_(cloud)
  6. Ralph, I'm suprised, do you really think that has a chance of working out?
  7. Don't think the shoulder was 100% but its nice to see the cold air blocking in textbook position.
  8. 40% accuracy..... LOL that's worse than guessing....!
  9. At least we won't miss south...? Most interesting weather lately were some lightening strikes I was driving home from Reading on Thursday. Mountains up north are finally getting snow. Vermont supposedly has been a dream this week.
  10. seems like the temperature is remaining stubbornly high for snowmaking.
  11. My ski mountain I instruct at is really struggling-- didn't build up enough man made snow in Dec. Mountain is closed today hoping to make snow tonight... --this is no way to pay off my new boots...
  12. drive to work in East Earl this morning became an instant ice rink when the rain started at 8:25am
  13. I'll take two Barn-crushers to-go with a side of sleet! My guess is that this is going to spread out, and be warmer with less intense precipation than currently modeled on the GFS. Hard to get something going with the PV flowing so vigorously.
  14. If this was peak climatology we'd have the wiggum rule on our side.
  15. The higher elvation is longer than the lower??
  16. Praying for a dry week this week. My dad and I tore our roof off... we found a bunch of rot in the deck that had to be patched. We weren't able to get it all finished and tar papered before we ran out of daylight yesterday. Hopefully we can get the patching done tonight and get the tar paper on tomorrow.
  17. DT says "winter come hinter" and looks to be highly favorable pattern developing especially considering the deep trough and strong jets developing through the country. Anybody following JB and LC these days?
  18. Ive seen annual blue grass sold before for emgerency repairs-- It has a tendency to leave bare spots the following year. Annual ryegrass is a superior choice for its durability and drought resistance but does not germinate as readily or as hardily as annual bluegrass. Rye has a better appearance too. Some golf course such as Chambers Bay in WA use annual blue grass in their greens.
  19. You can always try overseeding with annual blue grass (fastest to germinate and won't come back next year) and watering with a sprinkler. It will perk back up in no time
  20. Well the extra daylight makes for enormous vegatables which i think makes up for it!
