The rain/ice-arctic-rain/ice pattern has been a mess. Thaw it out and start anew. We will start on sunday, I'm done down this way but i have more trips planned north.

I love snow and skiing and all... but even the diehards up here today are finding it hard to complain. If it's going to happen, sunshine and near 60F feels pretty refreshing.

Obviously practically, 72 degrees is delightful. But in Feb is off putting. Call me a weenie, but it’s the beginning of some massive changes that are going to start happening rapidly. Lol....stay safe when the massive changes hit the area...too funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinterWolf Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 27 minutes ago, powderfreak said: Not having snowmaking in this current climate will lead to shut em down status. Like talking about earlier, every winter now seems to have some record warmth at some point. MRG is an easy target in these patterns to show the "dire" situation lol. Lol right...pick a place that doesn't make snow and then point out the melting snow. The melting will stop up that way after this afternoon. And the places that do make snow(which is most places) will be skiing for another 6 weeks at least. Besides MRG, most all other places are not shutting down anytime soon.

powderfreak Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Up to 64F at home in the sun. The yard is making a giant slurping noise in the snowpack lol. This is nuts. Every window and door open. Clear the house of a winter worth of stale air and Alchemist farts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be worrying about any big apocolyptic changes anytime soon if I were you. Just enjoy the warm day, and the return to a wintry day tomorrow.

HIPPYVALLEY Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 We'll take a big hit this afternoon if the sun comes out but shouldn't get wiped out completely. Temperatures are 10- 15° higher 5 miles away in any direction although Brattleboro looks upper 40's still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully we get some decent snow so we can recover for a nice run to end the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
