The trend is that the storm will dig farther south and strengthen more; this means that the storm will track closer to the coast and more snow will be delivered to the ski areas.

Eastern Maine! Camden SnowBowl!!!

Also...think Lost Valley may get pretty close to the max....would be great for them.
It's a small, low priced place....looking good....hopefully the Loaf might get some if the storm holds together for a while, which it looks like a good possiblity...fwiw

Fear the wind with this one. Not a ton of snow like the last few but we are talking some serious wind, like sustained at 40+ throughout southern NE with hurricane force gusts. A few thousand feet up in ski could could be wild and damaging given the weight on the trees. This could really screw things up.

00z Canuck & 00z GFS are both in, and both have moved south. This should tuck it into the coast...might be getting interesting for ski country. This is turning into the neverending winter of "correct" storm adjustments.

EDIT: Added depictions of both models at 12z Sunday.

Yeah 20mmph would be nice.

Cannon looks pretty brutal this weekend. I might think about Bretton Woods to escape some of the wind.
