    Less the 1” here since the 11th, so this has been an extended hiatus from any wintry precip

    Wow, what a gradient, 100 mi to your WNW in Greenfield It has been almost continuous snow cover and currently we have 4 inch pack of absolute glacier with big plow piles all over town.   

    That being said it is much different even just 10mi S of here so it has definitely a latitude gradient,  although those S interior areas did do very well in the big December storm.

    Flying Cloud, Mini Dole and UMass aren't opened. Can't say I remember those runs being closed in January. If you know the dates you are skiing, BE offers discounts for advanced purchase. Use their calendar to reload you're RFID card.

     It’s ironic because they had the earliest opening ever due to good temperatures in  November and a great start to December and now January is the meh’ month.  Luckily the Greenfield recreation department ski program will give us a rain check if tomorrow is lousy.

    I skied at Butternut today with my son. It was firm but edgeable groomer. The area received quite a bit of freezing rain earlier in the week. It wasn't really crowded with minimal waiting at lifts.

    Taking my kid to B'East the next 4 Saturdays for lessons and some turns for me and the wife.  Expecting meh' conditions in the rain tomorrow but I'll still get some runs in.

  4. It was nice to get the driveway mostly ice free today.

    Based on no meteorology, I am calling for a rainer every Saturday in January, since I have invested hundreds of dollars in lessons and lift tickets for the family for those days.

    Even I...the ultimate snow lover....would have a hard time getting up for a 2-4" snowfall in early January if I lived in Bethel or somewhere else with similar snow climo. Too bad the more dynamic solutions have been lost....even some of the ones that gave SNE nothing at least were giving 8-10" up north in a wide swath.

    N Greens have best shot at a few inches.  If this thing loses any more dynamics and shreds out I could see even Bethel getting only 1-2". 

     Hopefully it surprises and all the mountains get 4 to 6"

    Oh’ I got one.   Let me see if I can remember my YouTube password.
