  1. I'm not surprised I missed it. Apparently yesterday afternoon there was a pretty bad accident at the entrance to BW ski resort. The back wall of my office is one giant window and looks right out at the entrance to the ski resort and 302. I heard nothing, saw nothing, didn't even notice the emergency vehicles. The rapture probably could have happened and I would have been oblivious...
  2. Why must you crush my soul on a Monday morning???
  3. I dont have a clue when it comes to investing...first time in my life where I have extra to invest...it's just sitting in my regular account doing nothing
  4. My days off are Tues and weds, temps are looking good for some skiing. At this point in the season, I echo the sentiments of it not needing to be below zero or in the single digits anymore. Still not ready to say good bye to the snow. Im with Phin and would really like to enjoy one good synoptic event. But seriously, it can be a lovely winter day at 30 degrees!
  5. I can imagine PF or JSpin getting bored at Bretton Woods...well, maybe not bored because they are very good at appreciating all different experiences. BW def has long groomers and a perfect slope to entertain the majority of skiing abilities on the bell curve. But for skiers who def ski expert and beyond, I can see BW being on the tame side. I remember skiing with SkiMRG at Berkshire East. This dude drops out of helicopters in AK...he would just ski off into the woods even if it wasn't actually a trail and find some random drop or rock ledge to shoot off of. Those skiers don't find much enjoyment in long intermediate groomers
  6. For my limited skiing ability, conditions at Bretton Woods were pretty good! I'm impressed, Bretton Woods has a really good mtn Ops team compared to a lot of other ski resorts. I can imagine after the rain and then the wicked temp drop, the mtn must have been one giant glacier. They did a good job of grooming a lot of trails and getting them back to a packed powder layer
  7. March 2nd, 2010 we said farewell to Don Kent

  9. Oh my goodness, just had to leave my room to turn in my rent check...was probably outside for 2 minutes...Holy crap it is cold!!!
  10. 37 degrees at work at the base of Bretton Woods
  11. Raining pretty good here in Twin. I was oblivious until I left my room to head to work and I opened the door and saw all the water. Oh goodness the parking lot is a mess! But I guess this is natures car wash!
  12. I'm not sure how "fun" 60mph is coupled with the term "arctic".
  13. Same up here. It was quite abrupt. One day I was outside and there was much more bird chatter and the songs had changed. Im glad you guys mentioned something. The NNE thread, they are still posting about deep deep winter. Yes, it's still winter in NNE, but the changes are noticeable.
  14. Is anybody getting their tapping supplies dusted off yet? The past 4 mornings I've noticed a dramatic difference in the bird songs. I know winter type weather isn't over, but going forward there will be more frequent interludes of spring mixed in...we have passed the solid wall to wall winter period. Yes, there can be snow Memorial Day Weekend up here. Im not denying that...this is the part of winter I like the most- still winter, but I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel
  15. Last night, starting around 5pm and continuing overnight- .3inches of snow measured on behalf of Alex. As of noon today, Alex's weather station had the temp at 43 degrees Tap those maples!
  16. Same...spring is creeping in. I dont mind. Winter is long up here. The smallest signs of spring come right at the time the brain usually says- I've had enough of the cold and dark days...the bird songs are changing, and becoming more enthusiastic...let's move into tapping season!
  17. I measured 3inches on behalf of Alex. Sounds about right reading some of the other amounts posted
  18. 10hrs and no posts... 26 days and we spring forward 1 hr
  19. Family in Plymouth sent me a text saying it was 60 degrees
  20. My original guess was 3-5 inches before changeover in mby...im now going with 3 inches before the changeover...
  21. Based on how fast this storm is moving, and how far west the track is- for mby which is rt302 in Bretton Woods, im going with 3 inches before the changeover
