It's been snowing here in Northwest CT for just over 2 hours and we have a solid 2-3" already!

I can tell that it's been snowing if the dog comes in with a blanket of snow on his back... But this sounds like very good news for two reasons. One reason being very obvious on a skiing messageboard, the other being a school cancellation. I have beliefs that no one on the Board of Education skis......

.....that daddy's can cancel school and work on big powder days, regardless of what the radio says. His SAT scores in 2015 will take a hit, but he'll be a better rounded, better adjusted human being.

Just like his daddy.....

The NYC area report says that the storm's tracking farther east and accumulations have been reduced from 6-10 to 4-8 inches. Hope that's not bad news for those north of me!

Eastern LI is just getting blasted tonight....I would say over six inches so far. To bad I have to work on Tue.

I think I'm going to do the long walk tomorrow.

I could wait until the lifts open and ski down to the baby lift, but it is a slow lift.

I could wait until the lifts open and hike over to the Gatehouse lift. It is a high speed quad. But those trails are usually groomed in the early morning, and there is seldom powdah there.

I think I'm going to do the long walk to Super Bravo. It is the high speed quad that services most of the powdah.
