Well, aside from the temps getting back down to normal, It's looking like a quiet week for snowfall. I'd really like to get some more natural to get away from the FGR. Stowe blends the new with the FGR which makes for a really sweet consistency.

Here's Kelly. What can I say?

Think this is going to be his first major fail of the season. No one I follow is suggesting anything until maybe Sat/Sun and that is 100% up in the air.

So far it looks like a cold groomer day next weekend. Maybe the stronger March sun will help things. At least the snow piles in the flatlands will have a chance to recede.

IMO the good news is that JB released a forecast map that shows the northeast staying cold for the month of March. Step 1. March can be a juicy month so getting the moisture is favored.

After the awesome soft bumps and spring skiing of this past weekend, I might skip skiing this coming weekend given the lack of recent snow and sustained cold. Plus the rest of March my skiing dance ticket is already punched every weekend (2xVT, 1xLP, 1xCats)

Thinking of delaying this weekend, but if I do I end up delaying the following trip to 23 March...any thoughts on the forecasts long-term? Good chance of enough cold over the next several weeks?

Minnesota?

New Jersey is still the bullsyes zone as of today's 12z suite (various model outputs below).

I'm a believer in this storm now, as it's passed the "annnnndddd it's gone" time period of the models. Even the crappy American government model has it now (better late than never).

Nice! Getting heading that way in an hour. Would love a refresher. Hoping that Monday storm delivers too. Thanks for all the updates.
