They report 6 inches of new snow. I wonder if they got rain toward the end of it. I was also hoping for Ragged tomorrow but hard to tell if the woods will be open. I called them asked but they cannot be definitive. Maybe better off Sunday with warmer weather but I only got Saturday. Maybe go to Loon instead. Looks like they only got snow out of this and their glades are all open.

5" at Wachusett, not a flake here. Thinking about heading up later.

5" at Wawa? Geez, I've still got one more visit on my three-peat card to use up. Hopefully the snow's still there on Monday night...

Well, I checked the hourly forecast this morning on weather.com and it said snow all day at Belleayre, they were completely wrong. It was misting and drizzling all day and obviously it was freezing drizzle during the night as everything was encrusted in ice. I skied for about 3 hours with icy crust on top of the snow near the top and a little softer about half way down. It was still fun but I was pretty wet. On the bright side they declared a rain day at noon so I got to ski today and I have a free ticket for this season or next.

Magic is reporting 10" at the summit & 6" at the base from this storm. Should be sweet tomorrow!

Don't give up on that. They got 6" of wet powder. Not busy today and the woods are open. You may even find some stretches of untracked snow if you get there early. Trail report on the way.

It was still spitting snow at 5 pm when we left. The outside thermometer on my car showed 32 degrees.
