Nice loafer89! Yep, you guys look like the bulls eye. A year to the day almost from last year. But as the owner of a small radio station once told me - "it's not the size that matters, it's the frequency".
I'll take whatever they give me over in the greens tonight and be very thankful. With this wet heavy stuff all you need is 4-6" and you're good to go. We may get some backlash also out of this for the next couple days. Glad I did my spring skiing two weeks ago! This coolish weather following the Snow is the amazing part.....................

Right. Maine will get the big dump from the storm, but hopefully the greens will get the upslope.

It's been raining/sleeting all morning here in the Burlington area. 1-3" is forcasted for the Champlain Valley and 3-6" for the Greens (according to the radio guy this morning). We just had some thunder/sleet which was pretty cool.

I've learned my lesson thinking that the most snow will NOT will in northern vermont.

Gentleman's bet that Jay ends up with more snow by the time upslope snows stop sometime later this weekend.

Tonight: Periods of snow. The snow could be heavy at times. Low around 18. Southeast wind between 13 and 16 mph becoming calm. Chance of precipitation is 100%. New snow accumulation of 6 to 10 inches possible. Thursday: Periods of snow showers, mainly before 8am. High near 31. Breezy, with a west wind between 15 and 21 mph, with gusts as high as 36 mph. Chance of precipitation is 80%. New snow accumulation of 1 to 3 inches possible. i'm already feelin' sick tomorrow. hope they don't shut down the summit for wind holds. anyone else heading up?

wildcat looks like they could make out real well. i was on the website and it looked like tickets were 29 till friday. the elevation could make a real differencs in quantity and quality of snow.
