Very good for the Magic Mountains, Bromleys, and Strattons of the world. For sure. Best banding kind of parked over the southern greens today. Magic will be epic tomorrow. That place is a hidden jem after a good dump. Their snowmaking sucks so you gotta hit it with the natural goods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This kind of system is actually kind of fun as we knew the line would get so close to our area and stall. Snow growth has been fairly crappy the past hour.

Professional Lurker Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 Please let me know if you plan on a date. New Trail skiers right looks pretty sweet, top to bottomAgreed!I have tried several times to set something up for us here with a group rate. Let me know if we can settle on a date that works for most.

tamarack Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 2 hours ago, WxBlue said: I don't think I ever measured on top of old snow pack before thankfully, there's a spot where my board was where I can measure the new snow. Given where you lived, that's not much of a surprise. Even where I grew up in north Jersey, the highlands not the NYC apron communities, it was rare for snow to fall on snow, and when it did the earlier stuff usually had a crust that would bear a small car. I can recall only 2 powder-on-powder times. One was in Feb 1967 when we had 4" ending at 8 AM on the 6th as a cold front roared in, and by 5 the next morning a much bigger storm had arrived (before the 1st one had a chance to crusticate.) The major instance came Jan-Feb 1961, with 20" on Jan 19-20 (the JFK inaugural storm), a couple small events, then 24" on Feb 3-4 (with NYC's fastest Feb wind on record.) That stretch was the city's longest run - 16 days - of remaining below 32, actually below 30. I doubt it reached above 25 where we lived. Some nearby slightly higher elevations reported depths on Feb 4/5 of 47" to 52". I'd guess we were close to 45, far above anything where I lived before moving to northern Maine. Here in Augusta it's still teens and little flakes, perhaps 3" new. Talked with a co-worker from the Farmington office, and he thinks it's closer to 6" there.
