Dendrite got the legit visually confirmed +SN! 

Damn. 

Actually looks like might salvage skiing Saturday morning precipitation free.

Yes

Doesn't everyone start as liquid though...? 

12z runs are going to come in rain to Canada this weekend it seems.

So Karen and I schedule a weekend in Lake Placid... hoping for a little wintry appeal.  Karen's thinking fondly of strolling in 'snow globe flakes'.  Ha ha ha.  50 degrees and rain... I picked a bad month to quit drinking.  Not to mention it'll be shorts and jersey weather for outdoor riding back here in Schenectady.  Eesh.  If I leave town we get a foot and a half.  If I go where it usually is winter, we get early May.   On the bright side, my niece and her husband in Underhill started tapping their maples.  They do have like 40,000 taps or something ridiculous so it isn't as nuts as it sounds.

That’s OK, I had the kid signed up for ski lessons every Saturday in January That included a sweet  lift ticket deal for me and the wife.  This will be the second week in a row that gets canceled. They will keep pushing it back to a point but three in a row canceled and they will give refunds so the town loses money Berkshire East loses money and I lose out on cheap skiing at a local area.

 I am also help organizing the Cub Scouts Yukon days for January 25, I’m hoping we have snow by then if not I need to start planning a very different activity schedule.

Get out there,  Do some gardening, rake the yard, fertilize.  Jump start Spring.

Should I throw my hardy starts in the ground?

You're latest avatar is stupid. Keep us informed on how many ski areas close from the thaw.

All the ones in CT maybe?

You knew it would be, yet still you watch.

Some seasonal guys are saying only a 2-3 week stretch of true winter left.

Maybe for the S Mid-Atlantic?

I can't remember ski seasons ending this early, even in the 1980s and early 90s. It's crazy

NNE will be fine,  nothing that a few days of snowmaking won’t help remedy.   Areas south of Killington I am a little bit more concerned about,  everything within striking distance of my house is probably going to take a pretty good hit.  B’East, Stratton, Mt Snow.  Sucks, but it won’t be the first time it’s happened and definitely won’t be the last.

I won't sweat the op run, See what i did there?

Looks like a nice weekend for you.

So is the Sat rn event before any changeover going to be 50f+ with high dews and fog eating SW winds?

I would think a lot cooler than that for you.  

I’m looking forward to RA and upper 30’s while 10mi SE of me is in the 50’s.

Getting flashbacks to last winter, when 1/20 was supposed to be the turning point as well. We'll see. 

The ensembles are not looking horrible so hopefully only another week of crappy pattern.

Hospitals continuing to fill up around Ski resorts . Boiler plate most days .

 

Luckily mud is soft so things should improve over the weekend.

ICON is rain to Quebec City for Saturday.  That is not easy to do in January.

Ahh yes... found myself looking at wintry weather of the Northeast again. I'm supposed to have a layover at Logan Airport in Boston this Sunday (from Las Vegas) so I'm definitely nervous about the icy weather.

Probably a long shot for Logan to have ice from this.

Ice ice baby

Ya,  I’ll take 32.5° RA and you can have the 30.5° FZRA and I’ll be fine with it.

They are probably all short heating oil 

Not sure anyone should be shorting heating oil right now...

At least we still have the ice storm showing up on most models for CNE/NNE this weekend, because who doesn't love ice? 

Twas’ a nice wintery morning here,  wife said close to an inch at our house a little less downtown where I am.   

28F. -SN

Epic sledding condish, lol, blood on the hill...

 I had to put on the spikes just to walk the dog out in the woods just now.  Nice layer of powder on top of polished glass. 

Me thinks  I am going to end up with more snow today then with the mid week critter.  Already .5” this morning.   Roads are slick.

I will say this , this current pack in Nashua is bullet proof 

2” of water locked into 3-4” of snow/ice
