    Killington is knocking down their main lodge and parking apparently is extremely limited over there. I'm sure the construction contractors would rather have the ski crowd be gone asap. Not really sure what they're going to do once Bear Mt lodge closes for the season. I've always been partial to the Bear Mt lodge anyway.

    Not just Superstar either... the guns were going on Snowdon yesterday too. Superstar was unskiable yesterday, even Skyelark was very low vis from the wind. Nice job by them.

    Killington skied wonderfully well... Catwalk -> Big Dipper was where it was at. Laps and laps.

    Looks like BDL's low max may well be crushed by 4 degrees... and the wind is just ridiculous Records also likely falling at ORH, BDR, PVD, and NYC Midnight highs may just barely prevent records at BOS, MHT, and CON

    The Charlotte area really needs a radar or radars. Folks have been looking into it for a long time, but it just hasn't happened. Durant, OK just announced they were getting a C band in the last few weeks, and the SE Texas gap is at least partially mitigated by TAMU's mostly operational S band (though not sure about its QPE performance) and the NBC affiliate in Dallas has a pretty nice S band located to the SE of the metroplex that can do some gap filling out there. Far SE Oklahoma coverage is still pretty terrible and an extra dangerous spot for a tornado.

    Killington sent out an email a little while ago reporting 11" in the last 24 hours... I don't know whether to raise an eyebrow or grab the skis and head north

    I found it to be just about perfect today for spring cleanup weather with a late afternoon ski. No need to be sweating hauling brush, raking, etc. We've got plenty of time for warmth and dews.

    Hopefully we can all avoid cheap midnight highs tonight.

    Last call at the Beast. Always bittersweet

    Not that it's unusual but even a couple days ago I noticed that Dallas proper was definitely coming to life whereas Ft Worth and Denton were still well behind. Spring seemed a bit late out there.

    Take pics in about 3 days

    This was an overview of the N TX survey results

    Seems like they have some GR2A files that can be downloaded https://wdi.geos.tamu.edu/data/ADRAD/GR2A/TAMU/

    TAMU has a radar that the weather service has access to. I am pretty sure it's operational today. Not sure if the data is public.

    Durant OK is getting a C band (I think) which should have pretty good range. This will help on both sides of the Red River. But could use a few more... I'd like another X band in Rockwall county personally.

    definitely a little velocity signature running 67 toward Midlothian. That stretch of 67 from Venus ENE is the single most active place for these spinups that I've seen in my 10 years running this network in the metroplex. With the east shores of Eagle Mt lake a close second.

    I'm in Grapevine right on the west side of the airport. SIrens were going off and was cool but not totally intense compared to some other areas today.
  20. radarman
    Sirens were going off... was cool, but nothing we don't see in Belchertown on the reg

    West of DFW disagrees. Bad damage today. I'm in Grapevine, TX dead center of a tornado warning, but looks meh at present. Hopefully I'm not jinxing myself.
  22. radarman
    kind of maxed out east of Lake worth and weakened... at least for now
