  1. seems simple enough really. Not sure why other aspects of society couldn't take note and implement. 23z model runs... done
  2. now instead of losing one hour of sleep when the clocks change, all of us here can lose an hour of sleep every night in the winter
  3. headed up your way tonight... seems like I should quit work early and wax em up.
  4. I'm saying the map is our current snowfall climo. The moose in the Allagash can't be bothered to send in reports, Ginxy is smiling all the time, and Greenfield Chris is the new DCA.
  5. There is a fair amount of smoothing on that 3d topography. The hills on the east side of the valley in MA are largely over 1000', with Mt Grace up over 1600', but in a narrow strip. Meanwhile you'd think parts of SEMA and NW RI was substantially higher based on the colors.
  6. who doesn't like a little sugar snow to wake up to? Would be nuked in hours regardless.
  7. Skinned up and got a pretty good look at that busted wind turbine blade at the Beast earlier.
  8. if only Quabbin effect were real... I'd kill on nor'easters
  9. I think being on the far east side of the valley in gradually rising terrain may help, with westerly wind component behind the front
  10. I'm pretty bullish for another advy event here. We could verify it in 2hrs potentially. Lift looks great on the 3km soundings shortly after noon.
  11. I just have a weekday pass, so normally I skin on weekends, but might make an exception tomorrow. Debating between that and using an unrestricted KTicket voucher at Killington. I'll PM you if I'll do wind up in Charlemont.
  12. Agree with all this, which is why I stopped watching on TV a long time ago and now relegate it to the radio while doing other things... cooking dinner, coding, looking at models, whatev. Makes for great background noise, and you can tell by the pitch of the announcers voice when there's something going on worth paying attention to. But don't have to rely on it to hold your full attention.
  13. I think it's to get more action into the game. Hits are fun at least. Everybody striking out 150+ times a year because they're focused on launch angle to beat the shift is boring.
  14. I'm happy to bank the ticks east and weaker through 6z tomorrow anyway.
  15. Was roughly 4" at the Beast by the time lifts closed. About the same at the house. Skiing was good just don't go too hard on the edges.
  16. Belchertown will no longer be the best represented location in the subforum
  17. If you are taking pics on your phone, get an app like Lit Photo (etc) that can shrink the image size. Probably the pics are natively way bigger than you need them to be when posting anyway. Shrink them to like 800x600 or whatever and the filesize drops dramatically. Takes 10 seconds or less, literally.
  18. Early April skiing can be good to amazingly good but otherwise give me the bluebells blooming on the plains, the scent of distant grassfires, and the threat of strong convection. And home in time for our climo favored end of May/ early June EML. I will say that the CoC days before the humidity and the bugs come out can be some of the nicest wx of the year here, but just too few and far between.
  19. Seems to me that March is when clippers can actually amount to something.
  20. Some nice pics out there today. Winter bluebird.
