Quite a gradient up North , Have a feeling the core of that 6-8 area will go higher, Visibility is only 250' where I'm at.
6" already

You wont see it "like this" today either, because ONCE AGAIN, the Pocono's got absolutely SCREWED. They got about 3" and that's it. Not even snowing at Shawnee or Camelback right now. Frustrating.
Meanwhile, I think I'm at a good 5", and it's still pounding snow here in Jersey.

Regardless of what they got (3 is ok) the base up there is pretty deep. There will be bumps and maybe some off trail things to hit this weekend. By the time I get there, there wouldn't be any fresh anyways. Sure I would like to go north but it ain't happening this weekend so I plan on enjoying the warmer temps and deep snow. Beats being at home all weekend.

Should've come out with me. I'm leaving now to do some NJ backcountry.

I'm still going to BM tonight, leaving at 2:30 or 3, as 3" is better than nothing. It's just remarkable how this one region gets shafted time and time and time and time again.

Cape Cod, another foot. Too Funny. It must be uninhabitable.

Eh, you made the right choice. It was too flat, really more cross country than downhill skiing. Oh well.
Looks like 4 or 5 inches here in Manhattan. I'm trying to motivate to hit the backcountry known as Central Park!
Happy hour here in the office (Mad Men style here at an ad agency) might slow me down.... Or make my turns more interesting!

7-8 inches here outside of Philly in SJ

Meh, Blue Mountain was pretty bad. There was no way you could tell they got 3" today. The entire place was really icy and scraped.
And the conditions at Shawnee on Sunday were fantastic, so I think the rain and ice the Poconos got this week seriously wrecked havoc on what had been pretty decent conditions.
On the bright side, I did try that new Slopeside restaurant and I agree with the other posters here - two thumbs up.
Haha, I'm sensing sarcasm though CP can be fun for XCountry on a powder day. Of course I'd rather be at Magic or Jay, but when you have no chance of playing on a real mountain, CP will do.
That said, I had too many beers at work and couldn't motivate. I'm hoping my flight to Atlanta tomorrow is cancelled so I get some time to play!

Bear Creek was really fun , although spent most of the night straight lining , place has little pitch , a short bump run with large bumps, found some short glade runs .
I can't believe the precip gradient , when I got home there was another inch of snow.
11.5" total
