but instead I'll most likely be driving 330 miles to the Big K..

It's all about the humidity and the temps. While they will have windows of solid below freezing temps the next few nights, the air's got some moisture in it too, which will greatly hurt production. Combine that with the start/stop that would happen do to daytime temps AND the liquid precip forcasted from probably Thursday afternoon through mid/late weekend, and it's not going to happen for this weekend.

While the good cold air is close, the jetstream is basically going to be right over VT in close to a South to North orientation for most of the next week or so based on projected models, which unfortunately will have just enough of a moderation effect on temps AND increasing the humidity that Mount Snow's latitiude disadvantage will come into play.

DJ, you're being far too rational. :cool:

Well most likely this would be a solo trip.....I'm not 100% on this weekend yet..

One side of me is like...do you really want to drop a couple hundred on lodging, gas and lift tickets to ski the same few crowded runs as last week.

The other side of me is like..do you really want to spend a boring weekend in Allentown when you could be skiing..you have plenty of money..and you want to ski...

Side #2 wins out nearly 100% of the time..
