powderfreak Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 My heart bleeds. Poor skiv2. I look at it like when Colorado skiers make fun of Utah/Wasatch skiers for complaining because Alta only got 300" instead of the 500" average. Meanwhile, 300" is a good, solid year in Colorado Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damage In Tolland Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 So if Feb is gradient pattern and it snows in NNE..does that mean rainers in Sne? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 So if Feb is gradient pattern and it snows in NNE..does that mean rainers in Sne? Man I knew you would say that. No, but it's not going to be Cstl scrapers either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one wants the Good & Plenty (colored using a dye made from crushed female cochineal insects)...everyone wants the kit-kats, snickers, and milky ways.

dendrite Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 ec ens have about 5-10 good hits up here for around 1/26. The GFS has a potent clipper tracking through our lat on that date so maybe a Miller B? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarverWX Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 This is OT but can I get an idea of what the 26th to the 28 might be like for cold in Vermont? I plan to bring my 3 1/2 year old son skiing for the first time and I want to make sure it's not going to be 5 degrees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HIPPYVALLEY Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Pics I saw from NH and ME. Yours is coming in Feb. Most NH/ME ski areas are under 50% open terrain. That's pretty horrible considering many of them have 50-70% or more snow making coverage. Now pics from lower elevations probably do look ok. Before yesterdays snow a picture of my front yard would have shown 100% snow cover but it would not be indicative of the rest or the area. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I plan to bring my 3 1/2 year old son skiing for the first time and I want to make sure it's not going to be 5 degrees. Well the forecast isn't out that far but it might get quite chilly. Although next weekend is near normal on the forecast for here: Friday Night Mostly cloudy with a 30 percent chance of snow showers. Lows 5 to 10 above. Saturday Cloudy with a 40 percent chance of snow showers. Highs in the lower 20s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesnichols1989 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 SREFs are bullish on 8"+ and 12"+ amounts for around the 21-22nd for CC and Plymouth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 It's not great, but a lot better than VT. I know people going cross country skiing etc and Sunday River was hanging in there.Well our cross country center has been open except for a handful of days earlier this week. You only need like 3-6" to do that.I'd be real curious to see natural snow depths on Sunday River...we range from 10" at my 1500ft plot to 18" at 3000ft and 24" at the coop at 3800ft. I've been astonished at the reports from the MWN area and Cannon/Wildcat...they certainly aren't doing better, as of right now there wouldn't be a MWN spring ski season. But we know it'll change in Feb-Apr. I think the area that's the best is actually the foothills from like Dendrite/Gene up to Lewiston and that general swath. They probably have more than Pinkham Notch right now, haha. That may be skewing the opinion a bit because I was shocked at the relative lack of snow left after last weekends rain even in the mountains over there. I saw Dendrites backyard and figured those ski areas had 2+ feet but not even close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIPPYVALLEY Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Even with the ugly January I'm still at 33-34" when my average winter is 56" or so. Not a bad winter just odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 I think it's been fascinating this winter though in regards that the lower elevations have been fairing better than the mountains. Like around Xmas here, the lowest elevations in the Champlain Valley had the most snowpack (ice pack haha). Now it's Dendrite and the lower elevations on NH/ME. Dendrite had 10" while Cannon had bare trails to the summit on Jan 13th. How often do we think that happens? In the Berkshires, MPM lost all his snow while Chris in Greenfield area has full cover...been interesting in that regard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just looked...to me Tuesday night into Wednesday morning looks like the best setup of the year for us. True blue good setup that could really dump. Now let's hope the setup holds.

You know how it goes...I was there for the 12-14" storm a few weeks ago and I couldn't find any spots anywhere above 10". I wouldn't think their base is dramatically better than yours, primarily because they've had a few more torch issues than you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
