I've seen probably the most ice in modern times in 1/98. Easily 3-5" of ice. Beautiful to look at, but very damaging. I like about 0.25". Nice to look at.
Berkshire East was deserted the day after Christmas, no more than 10-20 people in line for the quad at any one time. No snowmaking yet on most of the advanced terrain. The conditions weren't good, firm groomed over icy patches.
For those folks wanting catastrophic icing, best of luck to you. Looks like (and hopefully) mostly plain rain here. Really bad timing for the NW Connecticut and Berkshires skiing. The rest of the holiday week looks shot for those areas.
Winter Weather Advisory here, the WSW has been dropped. NWS p/c now mentions freezing rain as well as sleet.
Ice Storm Warning for Litchfield and Western Massachusetts.
Not the best quality snow here at Berkshire East, groomed and frozen granular. I can count the number of people here outside the base lodge. No lift lines at all.
