No snow south of, say, Pat's Peak is my motto.
I'd like to change that motto to "no snow south of Crotched" if that's OK.

But, if the storm has to go in any direction, I'd rather it go north. No need for it to collect in my yard and on my driveway...

Don't worry all of Northern New England up to the Canadian Boarder will get at least 6-10". Points South like Wachusett, Crotched etc...12-18"

We'll take it. That's a workeable trade.
Can someone put in a request to have those totals flipped, though?

Perfect. So I get to fight my way out of Connecticut on Thursday to go to the MRV where there's half the snowfall...

I'll take close to a foot up north and even more down south. I've got Sunday River this weekend and fresh powder would be awesome, but a good base for the following weekend's cross-country skiing at Windblown would be good as well.

Thats what it looks like to me! Someone should ban you!! I hope for your sake that the MRV gets good coverage and the traveling isn't too bad. Make sure you drive really slow with your hazards on if you have to drive in the snow. You may even want to consider cancelling your SKI trip because of the snow!

I was at Windblown last Sunday and the conditions were pretty good once it warmed up, but it was getting thin in a few areas off of the tracks. They were saying that they may not be able to open this coming weekend unless they got some more snow.

Based on the current forecasts, though, you should be in good shape.
