Anyone heard any news on mountain operations tomorrow? I'm strongly considering heading to Southern NH tonight to ski tomorrow. Trying to decide who is most likely to be able to run all their lifts and still be in the heavier snow bands. My thoughts have been anywhere from Ragged, to Gunstock, to Loon, to anywhere in between.

Just one mets opinion, so take with grain of salt, but Lee Goldberg of ABC New York said this storm is even STRONGER than modeled, and he thus expects the snow bands to kick back further west than expected.

Good news for Poconos and Catskills and pretty much everyone if true.

Hope this is correct. Southern New England mets are down playing this imo, at 3+" of liquid in SE Mass and RI that is over 30", never mind the possibly 15:1 ratio. 40"+ at Blue Hill is a real possibility.

There's a growing piece of energy in the Midwest.
Is this Factored in the models? Ie tail end of the strorm.

It's taking in everything. Simply amazing.

Figure out where you are and multiply by oh let's say 13....to be conservative.

Fox News showing the different models with the Euro showing a northern migration of the jackpot area since earlier reports. Looks to have shifted running from SW CT north east now into Southern NH. Growing and moving North.

The travel ban is going to really screw up everything. Is there any option for tomorrow coming from the Boston area?

Nick · Jan 26, 2015

So basically the snow will be as tall as my 2 1/2 year old

Seeing 40"+ for south of Boston and Blue Hill?!

The snow is very light, so the snow:liquid ratio may run as high as 14:1

Just get out now. No more excuses. You've waited all year for this!

That's a bit different map from what I'm seeing with other models.

From the Euro:

Travel ban isn't a big deal...just get out before 10pm and you will cross the MA/NH/VT border by 12am easily. I'm waiting on a wind forecast - if the gusts are under 25 mph I may consider leaving tonight.

JDMRoma · Jan 26, 2015

Yep waiting all year for this.......Im ready !

At first I was like 'What happened to our 4-8"? ". Then realized this was though 5PM today. The clouds just barely moved in here.

Seeing some forums discussing > 15:1. There will be a time where the Boston/PVD area might touch or get above 30* so there will be some dense stuff mixed in.

That map sucks for everywhere except the Berkshires and Catskills
