Guns firing up at Berkshire East, Catamount and Bousquet according to facebook.  Great stuff.  Daily operations at Berkshire east through 3/28 I'd assume unless we really get some major rain, high dews and warmth.

Nobody at Berkshire East today!

Made it up to Berkshire east today after work.  Things were still a bit firm but it skied pretty well.  Woods were super fun but getting pretty thin in places.  Natural snow always skis so much better than the manmade! 

I'll be there all day tomorrow with wife and child.  Weather looks good.

Let’s stick to basics.  No politics, no Covid. 

Tough night, my space hurricane post has been deleted twice now but I know third time is a charm.

Anyway, I thought it was cool.

“Space hurricanes pouring electron rain” is more interesting than all of this Covid debate.

At their best they may sneak into the top 20.

Studies say it doesn't spread in...

stores

restaurants

homes with other COVID-positive people

schools

airplanes 

hospitals

social justice rallies

Where does it spread?

Chemtrail targeted areas.

Pics!

Outside of convection that was the longest and strongest wind event I’ve had at this location in the 12 years I’ve been here.

Couple of decent size pines are down in my backyard but no damage to house etc.

Scary! We just removed a few trees on the west side of our two story house a few days ago. One of them was a massive red oak two 10 feet from the house. I was getting an anxiety attack during every windstorm. 

Oaks, maples and other hard woods cause more damage, more often than white pines.

Waning some now but that was some crazy ass wind from about 9 to 11.  Heard some good cracks in the neighborhood, we’ll see what daylight brings.

Lights have flickered but are still on, Comcast is down though.

Getting a few house shakers now. Impressive!

I am in a one story, well-built house and I can feel the wind.  I had to go out with a flashlight about 10 minutes ago because I thought one of the recent guests might’ve torn siding off the back of the house. 

Roaring jet engine winds up high.  My white pines are swaying like wheat in a field. 
Very impressive gusts the past hour. The anxiety over a tree falling on the house is not the most fun but pretty intense wind  event here. 

Wind is roaring up high.  Some pretty good gusts at ground level too.  Power went out for about 5 minutes.

Normal here is 60”. I’m at 55” . BN

Average here is 58-60” and I’m at 47” so definitely below normal with time running out.  I’m even with ‘Berg in SW CT so definitely flirting with C- territory relative to “normal”.

Yeah deep winter is over but snow chances probably aren’t. Another warning criteria storm could change the grade for many. 

Yes.

Currently a C/C- here but a warning event in March could change that. However, a snowless March and it’s a D.

It’s over 

Embrace the cold and dry,  it’s the only cold and dry you have.

A little over 1” new.  Over to some pellets now. 
At least it looks like winter still.

1.4"-- changeover just about imminent, up to 31.9F.  Should be first rain drops shortly in quite a while,  definitely a good run.

Although it won't be a memorable February it has had good winter appeal.  Lot's of nickels and dimes.

0.5” new. Looks wintry before the washout

Of course there will probably not be quite enough rain to wash it away off the driveway and then it will freeze tonight.

We were riding down the snowmobile trail and I topped a little rise and I had to pull over and take that picture of the moon. My crappy iPhone doesn’t do it justice. 

It took me a second look at your post to realize you captured the East and West views almost simultaneously.
