#NoPoles

Yep! We sure did, and it was magnificent!

There is a push to get J and J Vaccines out to all VA Health Centers. I am on the waiting list. After all the shots you get in military, sometimes never really knowing what you're getting, I'm not scared of the Covid Vaccine. The only Vaccine so far that never worked for me was the chicken pox Vaccine. Had chicken pox twice, and as an adult, now I have recurring shingles. I asked about the Shingles Vaccine and the doctor told me my body just doesn't recognize that virus as a threat, so getting the Vaccine won't help, as my body won't build an immune response. I have a recurring prescription for an an anti-viral that I can take at the first onset of symptoms that helps with preventing the virus getting to the blister stage.

60s felt amazing. Glad to have them for 2 days. Will miss them. Hope they come back to visit soon!

Wow is it warm and humid. Alot of melting going to happen.

35 at the base of BW, 40 at the top. Warm air finally arrived

Rosebrook Lodge near the summit at the ski area reporting a temp of 27. Twin Mountain airport reporting a temp of 37. I went outside without a jacket

I honestly have no idea where my brain was. Probably abducted by Aliens or something

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...

Why must you crush my soul on a Monday morning???

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

Vacation rentals

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!

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

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

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!!!

37 degrees at work at the base of Bretton Woods

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!

I'm not sure how "fun" 60mph is coupled with the term "arctic".

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.

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

43 degrees

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!

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!
